Sir David Beckham called his wife Victoria ‘My Lady’ after receiving his knighthood.
The footballer, 50, celebrated with an intimate family dinner hosted at pal Gordon Ramsay’s Chelsea restaurant, after being bestowed the honour at Windsor Castle on Tuesday.
24 hours on, David gave fans an insight into the party on Instagram as he thanked the chef, 58, for pulling out all the stops for the milestone.
The photos showed David proudly wearing his investiture medal as he cosied up to Victoria, 51, and quaffed champagne with Gordon.
Posh had changed out of her smart navy dress worn at the day ceremony, opting for a slinky black floor length number.
David, meanwhile, looked the part in a classic velvet tux, having earlier worn a bespoke suit created by his designer wife for the royal ceremony.

The sports icon also shared a photo from the kitchen after thanking staff for putting on a special night.
He wrote: ‘Thank you to this incredible team who made a special night even more special. Thank you to Gordon and Tana for making this possible.’
Meanwhile, Victoria took to Instagram to share her own selection of snaps including a photo of her team with David.
She wrote: ‘Sir David came to surprise my atelier family today to thank them for all their hard work on his investiture suit.’
A source close to the family revealed to the Daily Mail that family friend Gordon was delighted to host the dinner party as his gift to his best pal.
‘As David’s best friend, Gordon decided the best gift was to throw him a wonderful dinner,’ an insider spilled.
‘David was there, their kids, his sisters, parents and Victoria’s mum and dad.’

The couple were joined by three of their four children – Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, as well as David and Victoria’s extended family.
Their eldest son Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola, 30, snubbed the festivities and have failed to acknowledge David’s achievement on social media.
Their silence is just the latest slight after months of family feuding.
When it was announced his father was to be knighted back in the spring, Brooklyn didn’t congratulate him either publicly or privately, while his other two sons made a huge fuss of the news on social media.
Brooklyn is said to have become increasingly estranged from the family after failing to attend any of his father’s 50th birthday celebrations in May.
Sir David was made a knight of the British empire for services to sport and charity during Tuesday’s investiture, notably his impact on football over a twenty year period and subsequent ambassadorial role with UNICEF.
The former footballer was welcomed by King Charles while receiving his knighthood at Windsor Castle for services to sport and charity, and his younger sons were among the first to offer their congratulations.
Romeo shared a family photo as David celebrated the honour with a lunch at Cliveden House with wife Victoria and his three youngest children before the night’s party.
Harper, 14, wore a lilac silk dress from Victoria’s brand for the celebrations
Cruz, 20, was in the party spirits as he enjoyed a glass of wine

The photo showed David holding hands with Victoria and Harper, with his sons looking smart in matching suits smiling alongside them.
‘No one deserves this more than you, love you so much xxx Congrats Sir dad’, Romeo captioned the photo.
Victoria meanwhile shared a post for her ‘kind, humble, hardworking’ husband, writing: ‘David, from the moment I met you 28 years ago, you’ve always been so proud to represent your country.’
‘Whether on or off the pitch, no one loves England or respects our Royal Family more, so to see you honoured by The King today is something I’ll forever cherish.’
‘You’ve achieved so much, and yet you’re still the same kind, humble, hardworking man I met nearly 30 years ago, as well as the most amazing husband and father. I’ve never felt prouder than I do today. Sir David, we all love you so much xxx’
