Photos: Victoria Beckham receives an Order of the British Empire (OBE) for her contribution to fashion

Spice Girl turned fashion designer, Victoria Beckham, 43, today received an OBE for her contribution to fashion from the Duke of Cambridge, in an investiture ceremony that took place at Buckingham Palace in London. This comes 13 years after her husband, former England captain David Beckham, was granted the same title for his services to football. 
David and her parents, Jackie and Tony, attended.

 'It was an absolute pleasure to be at Buckingham Palace today.


I'm proud to be British, honoured and humbled to receive my OBE from the Duke of Cambridge. If you dream big and work hard you can accomplish great things. I'm so happy to share this very special occasion with my parents and husband; without their love and support, none of this would be possible,' Victoria said after the ceremony.
