Since 1997, the couple began to appear on the covers of all newspapers, tabloids, and magazines around the world. One of them – the former star of Manchester United, and the other – the star of one of the most popular pop bands in the world. David Beckham met Victoria Adams after she attended a United match, and the relationship immediately garnered massive media attention. David proposed to Victoria in 1998, fourteen months before their first child, Brooklyn, was born. The couple married on July 4, 1999.
As Jutarnji List reports, the English couple celebrated their 23rd anniversary this year, and among all the places in the world to do it, they chose nothing more and nothing less than the Croatian island of Lopud. Victoria and David Beckham and their family visited the area around Dubrovnik to celebrate their 23rd wedding anniversary and stayed in the luxury complex Lopud 1483 on Lopud, reports the Dubrovnik Daily. They also celebrated their daughter Harper Seven Beckham’s 11th birthday there on Sunday.
Lopud 1483 is a former Franciscan monastery that Countess Francesca von Habsburg restored and turned into a combination of a museum, an elegant boutique hotel, and a 21st-century spiritual retreat. Renting the luxurious complex for one day costs 10,000 euros for ten people, and the price of one night is about 1,400 euros. The Beckhams also visited the Bowa restaurant on Šipan Island in the past few days.
“They say he’s not funny, they say I never laugh, they say we won’t last… Today we celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary. David, you’re my everything. I love you so much,” Victoria Beckham wrote on July 4 on her Instagram.
