Royal fans David and Victoria Beckham nowhere to be seen at King's Coronation

David and Victoria Beckham have paid their royal tribute to King Charles III, despite missing the Coronation event itself.

Both of the Beckhams shared royal well wishes to the new King, who both have met at previous royal occasions.

Despite not joining other celebrities such as Amanda Holden, Emma Thompson and presenters Ant and Dec at the royal celebrations, Victoria and David Beckham still made sure they'd shared a tribute to the new monarch.

Footballer David shared the official royal picture of King Charles III alongside a simple tribute, as he wrote to his 79 million followers: "Today our country comes together to celebrate the coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla."

On the other hand, Victoria shared a more personal tribute as she reflected on her time in The Spice Girls who performed on numerous occasions for King Charles when he was still the Prince of Wales.

Victoria shared a series of throwback snaps with her 30.9 million followers, as she wrote her royal tribute: "From then to now! I have so many fond memories of meeting His Majesty throughout my career, and he is always so supportive and kind.

"Today is a truly historic day and I’m incredibly humbled to celebrate King Charles III and Queen Camilla as they embark on their new roles. VB".

The fashion designer and former pop star shared snaps of her in her 90s heyday as Posh Spice in The Spice Girls alongside Mel C, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Horner. In one throwback snap, a teenage Prince Harry can be seen beaming for the camera as he holds hands with Emma and Victoria.

The snap with the young Prince Harry caught the attention of Victoria's followers, as one wrote: "Awww holding Harry’s hand."

Another added: "Omg Prince Harry was so young."

"Holding Harry’s hand," wrote a third.

Whilst Victoria and David Beckham missed the royal Coronation at Westminster Abbey and the following celebrations, celebrities turned out in force to celebrate the royal moment including Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, Emma Thompson and BGT stars Amanda Holden and Ant and Dec.

Victoria and David have previously attended royal events including William and Kate's wedding in 2011 and Harry and Meghan's in 2018.

When Queen Elizabeth II passed away last year, David was praised by many for refusing to skip the queue to see the late monarch lying in state and instead waiting his turn

The Mirror has contacted both David and Victoria Beckham's reps for their reason on missing the royal Coronation.
