And David captioned an old black and white picture of him and Victoria with the message: "16 years ago today was our special day... 16 years on we have our beautiful children... Thank you for giving me our amazing little ones .... Happy anniversary."

Meanwhile, with David having retired from his soccer career, he has been spending more time at home and he and his fashion designer wife feel their relationship is stronger than ever.

A source said: "Victoria is still worried that David's business ventures will mean they may have to spend more time apart, but she's happy for now as he's home a lot.

"It's made him really mellow and Victoria feels like they have a proper partnership.

"David really admires the strong woman his wife has become and she feels their bond is unbreakable."
