David Beckham's Pal Dave & Taller Fiancée Jessica Shine at Victoria's Premiere

David Beckham 's close pal Dave Gardner was dwarfed by his taller model fiancée Jessica Clarke as they cosied up at Victoria's documentary premiere on Wednesday night

BECKHAM SHENANIGANS: Victoria's Night of Glamour, Romance, and Family Drama

The spotlight was on Victoria Beckham last night as her Netflix documentary series premiered at a glitzy event in London. But it wasn't just about the fashion designer's latest project - it was also a chance for her to show off her stylish family, complete with a dashing husband, adorable kids, and even some Spice Girls reunion magic.

As Victoria, 51, posed on the red carpet with her stunning collection, which included a thigh-high split skirt and structured blazer, it was clear she was the belle of the ball. But who else caught our eye? Enter Dave Gardner, David Beckham's close pal and sports agent, who brought his new fiancée Jessica Clarke to the party.

The sports agent, 48, and the stunning Victoria's Secret star posed up a storm at the event to celebrate the release of the fashion designer's new Netflix series

Jessica, 32, is a Victoria's Secret model and looks every inch the supermodel in her black lace and silk gown. The couple got engaged just two weeks ago, and it's clear they're head over heels for each other. Dave, 49, looked dashing in his black suit and crisp white shirt as he proudly posed with his beautiful partner.

But what really caught our attention was the drama that went down between Victoria and her estranged son Brooklyn, 26. It seems things are still icy between the two, and Brooklyn's absence from the premiere was a poignant reminder of their complicated relationship. We're told the couple has reconciled themselves to not seeing each other for the foreseeable future.

However, it wasn't all doom and gloom on Victoria's big night out. In fact, it was a Spice Girls reunion that would make even the most seasoned fan swoon! Geri Halliwell Horner, Emma Bunton, and Melanie C made a show-stopping arrival as they supported their close friend. We're told Melanie Brown (aka Mel B) sent Posh flowers to wish her luck for her big night yesterday - how sweet!

But what really got our hearts racing was the news that Geri's husband Christian Horner received an £80million pay off from his former employers, Red Bull. Talk about a power couple! We're told they made their first public appearance since the news broke, and we can't help but wonder what's next for this stylish duo.

Mel C and her boyfriend Chris Dingwall also made a rare appearance together at the premiere - we're guessing it was worth waiting in line for? The pair looked every inch the happy couple as they posed on the red carpet.

So there you have it, folks - Victoria Beckham's night of glamour, romance, and family drama. But one thing's for sure: this stylish mom of four is still the queen bee of London's fashion scene.

The pair just got engaged

A Brief History of Dave Gardner's Love Life

For those who don't know, Dave Gardner has been through a few high-profile relationships in his time. We're guessing you might remember him as the fella who got engaged to actress Liv Tyler and shares kids Sailor, 7, and Lula, 6, with her? Or what about his son Grey, 15, with ex-wife Davinia Taylor?

But things have certainly changed for Dave since he met his new fiancée Jessica Clarke. The couple started dating back in October 2023, but it seems they're moving quickly - we're told they got engaged just two weeks ago!

Jessica looked stunning in a black lace and silk gown which she wore with a sleek leather bag and accessorised with gold jewellery

A Brief History of Victoria Beckham's Family Drama

For those who don't know, things have been a bit... complicated for the Beckhams lately. We're talking about the whole Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz fiasco that led to their estrangement from Victoria and David.

It all started when they shunned all of David's 50th birthday celebrations - talk about a family feud! But it seems things have cooled down since then, and the couple has reconciled themselves to not seeing each other for the foreseeable future. We're guessing it's all still a bit painful for Victoria, but she's certainly not letting it get her down.

Dave and Jessica's relationship emerged in October 2023 when the couple were spotted out together

The Premiere of Victoria Beckham's Netflix Series

So what's Victoria's new series all about? Well, it's a three-part documentary that follows her journey from Spice Girl to WAG (Wife and Girlfriend - for those who don't know!) and fashion designer extraordinaire. We're told it launched on October 9, so be sure to check it out on Netflix!
