Victoria Beckham is planning a heartfelt gesture for Katherine, the Princess of Wales, who is currently undergoing chemotherapy following a recent cancer diagnosis.
Known for her successful fashion brand, Beckham aims to send Catherine a specially curated pamper package to offer her support during this challenging time. Catherine, who has been recovering privately since her abdominal surgery in January, has made only a few public appearances recently, including a notable visit to Wimbledon.
Victoria Beckham, alongside her retired footballer husband David Beckham, shares a well-documented close relationship with the royal family. While the Beckhams have previously expressed their support for Catherine through public messages, Victoria now wishes to extend her support in a more personal and meaningful manner. A source close to the former Spice Girl revealed to Heat Magazine that Victoria has been deeply concerned about Catherine's health and has sent numerous supportive messages. However, she wants to go beyond these messages and offer something more tangible.
Victoria’s plan involves sending Catherine a selection of items from her own fashion range, along with other thoughtful treats she believes Catherine would appreciate. The source emphasized that Victoria is keen to adhere to the strict protocols surrounding the gifting process to members of the royal family. Victoria wants to ensure that this gesture is perceived as a personal act of kindness rather than a business-related one.
Catherine’s limited public appearances, due to her ongoing treatment, have made her recent visit to Wimbledon—a rare and much-anticipated event—especially significant. At Wimbledon, Catherine was seen wearing a chic purple dress by Sofia, complemented by elegant gold bangles, nude slingbacks by Camilla El Fick, and a pair of sunglasses by Victoria Beckham. This choice of accessories has not gone unnoticed, particularly in light of recent revelations about a strained relationship between Victoria Beckham and Meghan Markle.
According to Royal author Tom Bower’s recent book, The House of Beckham, tensions between Victoria Beckham and Meghan Markle have been palpable. The book alleges that Meghan, during her engagement to Prince Harry, requested free clothing and handbags from Victoria—requests reportedly denied by the palace. Bower also claims that Meghan felt irked by Victoria’s greater wealth, and their relationship soured further after an article about Victoria giving Meghan beauty tips was published. Additionally, Bower notes that Meghan’s alleged snub of the Beckhams at a 2018 wedding to Prince Harry, despite their presence on the guest list, contributed to the strain. Victoria reportedly felt slighted when she and David were not invited to a high-profile dinner attended by celebrities like George Clooney.
Despite this history, Victoria Beckham’s decision to include sunglasses in Catherine’s pamper package appears to be a subtle but significant gesture of support. The timing of this act of kindness, following past tensions, underscores a renewed sense of goodwill and empathy from the Beckham family towards the Princess of Wales. As Victoria Beckham prepares her pamper package, the gesture not only reflects her personal care for Catherine but also highlights the complex dynamics of high-profile relationships and royal protocols. And one thing’s for certain—the flying crockery alert in Montecito, California, has been raised to red status.
