David and Victoria Beckham are going to renew their vows

ac milan dinner 050109

Though for some reason I didn’t think they had it in them, David and Victoria Beckham are planning on renewing their wedding vows on their tenth anniversary this summer. Their first go-round was quite the lavish affair – they actually sat on golden thrones. But a decade together is a big milestone for any couple. And in celebrityland, it’s equivalent to about fifty years together.

David and Victoria Beckham are planning to renew their wedding vows.

The soccer player and the former Spice Girl have told friends they want to celebrate their 10th anniversary in July with a lavish commitment ceremony.

The couple might even reuse the golden thrones they sat on during their wedding in 1999.

A source told Britain’s Daily Express newspaper: “David has promised Victoria that they will renew their vows at the beginning of July, around their 10th wedding anniversary once his time with Milan is over.

“It will be a no-expense spared extravaganza, made all the more special after their enforced separation. David says it will be like another wedding and he’s even talking about using the thrones again.”

It’s not the first time David and Victoria have re-affirmed their love.

The couple renewed their commitment to each other in a surprise ceremony at their Hertfordshire mansion in May 2006.

The Beckhams have certainly weathered their share of marital storms, including a possible adultery scandal, or two. I never felt either allegation was an obvious “of course he did” situation. And Posh and Becks are still together and seem to get each other. They both have a love of the high life. And they also seem to have a deep commitment to their kids.

Generally speaking, I think it’s sweet when a couple renews their vows. A lot people disagree and find it to be a tacky display of self-indulgence, and I can see why they’d feel that way. But in a world with a 50% divorce rate, I think there are worse things out there than reaffirming your love and commitment for one another.

    Oh. Em. Gee.

    That wolverine costume on her kid is priceless and friggin adorable.

  2. Candy Girl says:

    Haven’t they already renewed their vows? Third time lucky maybe?

  3. Annie says:

    As much as I think Posh is this fake, plasticky, shallow woman.

    I’m inclined to believe that there must be something about her and them that has made it last so long (because hi, 10 years is a long time in the land of celebrities).

    I think it’s sweet.

  4. McKenna says:

    They already renewed it when she turned 30. 3rd time is kind of overkill. We get it…you’re in love…you’re still married. YAY.

  5. Kimble says:

    I’m still holding out to be David’s 2nd wife, although my husband might have an opinion on that!

    Little Cruz is just adorable – he seems so much happier under the gaze of the paps than Romeo or Brooklyn who always look uncomfortable.

  6. Dingles says:

    Gag me. It’s obviously just an excuse to throw themselves another lavish party and celebrate how fabulous they are. 10 years? Give me an effin’ break. Make it 30 years then give yourself a pat on the back.

  7. Kelly says:

    Good for them! And so what if it’s lavish..they have the money.

    10 years is a milestone..shame on the haters..be happy for other people.geez!

  8. Lauren says:

    I’ve always liked her, way back in the days of the huge Spice Girls craze, she always seemed really genuine to me despite her money. They were absolutely huge here in the UK, and she seemed like the type of person who wouldn’t look down on someone who had less than she did.

  9. M.E. says:

    I think it’s sweet when a couple is happy after 10, 20, or 50 years. But “reaffirming vows” makes me wonder which ones were broken and why they have to be reaffirmed. I prefer to trace my vows back to the original wedding.

  10. Blah Girls says:

    wow , there’s not many celebs doing this !

  11. BeautifulNahla says:

    This sounds like a pr thing. Becks kicked up some sand with the whole “I want to stay in Milan” thing. And a lot to American fans are calling him a turn coat. A big wedding when he has to come back to America. Will bring him some good press.

  12. gg says:

    Good grief, AGAIN? Overkill?
    I hate fake attention-seeking whores.

  13. Ned says:

    They lived apart for years, while he was in Spain and had affairs.

    I do think it’s sweet to renew vows, unless it’s a desperate publicity stunt when you got no acting ability/ record coming out or anything else to contribute to the entertainment industry, but you desperately seek attention.

    “The couple might even reuse the golden thrones they sat on during their wedding in 1999..”
    First of, it’s TACKY, secondly it’s an overkill thirdly, I dont see any Beckham American fans will fall over this..

  15. dovesgate says:

    If my husband and I make it to 10 years, I would be honored to renew my vows with him. Thats just me, though.

  16. ol says:

    see her shoes size, xaxa, stylish woman but can’t have the right size, self obssesed sceleton

  17. Candy Girl says:

    Yes, very nice to renew your vows. I might do it myself after 10 years. But twice??? Do they have something to prove?

  18. snappyfish says:

    I am one of those people think re-newing vows is silly. If you do it quietly, cool but the idea of some lavish party is just silly.

    That was called your wedding. Do it once. Now if you decide at your 50th to do it again, that is sweet. little old people who do it infront of there family and grandkids is kinda sweet. It just seems a little strange with the Beckhams who seem to do this every 3 years.

    If you want a big glitz party, have one, just leave the vow renewal alone. Why must you be reminded that you are committed to each other? Does it slip your mind that much?

  19. georgiagrl says:

    Thanks GG and Dingles for getting this publicity stunt right. Just an excuse to be on the entertainment shows and spend outrageous amounts of money on zilch!
    Please send these empty, shallow do nothings back to Britain. We have enough of our own here.

  20. geronimo says:

    David’s looking rough in that pic. Don’t know on this, do it by all means but why make a big song and dance about it? Why do they need the world and its dog in on the deal? Oh, forgot, OK! mag pics….

  21. gg says:

    I think it’s all just a ruse to placate Vicky and her insecurity. Why make a public spectacle of sincere marriage renewal, unless you’re just trying to pre-guilt your husband into not cheating. Again.

  22. barneslr says:

    Good for them. I’m coming up on my 20th, myself. Not much of a fan of either (but he does look good in those underwear ads…), but if they want to celebrate a milestone anniversary, good for them!

    Despite all the things I don’t care for about them, I’ve always gotten the vibe that they do actually love each other. It certainly seems to be true; and it can only be good for their boys so I hope I’m right.

    Of course, my hubby and I won’t have golden thrones for our 20th in April…we’ll probably just go to this nice little Italian restaurant for dinner instead (CB, you going to cover that story? No? Oh well…)

    Also, I thought she said she was going to quit shoving her plastic grapefruit out into public space? She’s back to her old hooker-dressing ways. I knew the copycat astro dresses would be short-lived.
