David and Victoria Beckham were reunited in the UK early yesterday as VB flew back to her homeland this week to be with her husband for the funeral of his grandfather who passed away last week. But, before Les Beckhams could get to morunin’ they had to get down to celebratin’. Posh and Becks were on hand at the Connaught Hotel in the Mayfair district of London last night to celebrate Vicki B‘s recent appearance on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar magazine (photos of which we saw at the end of October). Here are a couple photos of stylish couple in celebration mode last night:
She’s currently gracing the cover of Harper’s Bazaar, and what better way to celebrate than a meal with your friends? Victoria Beckham stepped out with husband David to attend a celebratory dinner at the Connaught Hotel, in Mayfair, London. Wearing a black dress with a zip all the way down the front complete with a sparkling belt and a blue pair of heels, the former Spice Girl, 35, looked immaculate – topping the ensemble off with her hair tied back into a bow-like shape. Meanwhile Becks sported a tight-fitting, sixties style grey suit, with a white shirt and black tie. The Beckhams were joined by their friends the Ramsays, chef Gordon and his wife Tana, Elton John’s partner David Furnish and Jasmine Guinness at the dinner. Gavin Rossdale, Gwen Stefani and Roberto Cavalli also attended the star-studded dinner.
But while last night was the time to eat, drink, be merry and celebrate with friends, today is the day for mourning with close family. Les Beckhams faced the sad duty of attending the funeral of Becks‘s grandfather Joe West early today. After the jump, check out a few photos of Les Beckhams in mournful mode this morning …
As you may recall, we learned yesterday that Becks‘s grandfather passed away last week at the age of 83. So sad. I was unaware that Becks was part Jewish, obvs on his mother’s side (Joe West was Becks‘s mother’s father). Let’s send all our deepest condolences to the Beckham-West family today on their loss. No word on what mode Les Beckhams will be in next … but if last night and today are any indication, it’s clear that they are capable of switching up modes very quickly.

Victoria wore that to a funeral? Are those her nipples showing? Um…
I don’t kow about everyone else, but I would never go to a party when one of my gradparents is lying in a coffin wating to be burried. It doesn’t matter how famous I was. Family comes first. These two don’t look the least bit in mourning. Hmmmm.
I went out to celebrate my friends birthday after my grandfathers visitation. Everyone mourns differently. And, most often, the deceased would much rather you are out enjoying life than sitting at home crying.
I don’t think it’s right photogs took pics of these two at the funeral! But, having said that, I wonder if there’s ANY situation where these two won’t look amazing! Even in mourning they’re gorgeous! I hate/love them!!
Frankly I hope people can mourn respectfully and then party on the same day when I die. That would honour my life more than a bunch of people going into a depression, especially if I make it a respectable 83 years.
Chase, yes she wore a black dress to a funeral…..shock horror!!!
Satish, there are soe pictures where you could see them crying
Satish, I completely agree with you. Everyone does mourn differently, but I would personally feel it to be disrespectful to do something like that. But then, I assume you’re Indian as well and it seems to be a cultural thing with us that we mourn family deaths in a more formal way.
They were just having dinner with friends…and also i think they’ve accepted the death of David’s grandad…he died of natural cause at the age of 83. Life goes on, we honor the memory of our dearly departed not only through sorrow but we honor & rejoice them through living….:)
I don’t understand how people can try to judge the level of someone’s grief from some pictures. They don’t look like they are whooping it up in the first pictures – they look like they are “soldiering on” and posing for the pictures which is their job – and a very British way to do things. They look solemn and dignified in the funeral pictures. We don’t need to see them wailing and ripping their hair out to prove thier grief. So sad to lose a grandparent – let’s just send our condolences and let them be…
To a funeral without a bra on?
I saw pictures yesterday of David crying, and I was outraged actually. I would be so pissed that people were taking my picture to sell in magazines and stuff while I’m CLEARLY mourning and missing my loved one. I feel really badly for them. It’s crap that people think it’s okay to take pictures of him at his grandfathers funeral. Grrrrjdbgfds!!
