They might be global superstars, but David and Victoria Beckham like to stick to simple traditions when they are at home with their family.
The couple, who have been married since 1999, are parents to four children - although they are estranged from eldest son Brooklyn.
Now Victoria has given an insight into their Sundays at home, and spoken about husband David's love of a roast dinner.
The former Spice Girl, 52, said that, schedules permitting, they like to sit down to eat with Romeo Cruz and Harper at around 6.30pm.
Sunday traditions in the Beckham home
She told the Sunday Times: "We're very traditional, actually, as a family" and said that there is no need to ban phones at the table because everyone is too busy talking.
Furthermore, Victoria said that wherever they are in the world, Sundays mean a roast dinner - whatever the weather. It's something David is 'particularly committed' to.
"Yorkshire puddings are a big crowd-pleaser, stuffing, lots of vegetables," she shared. "No parsnips — it’s one of the only foods my husband does not like and will not eat."
And while fans might think that the Beckhams' gravy would be homemade, Victoria admitted they prefer a simpler option. "It has to be Bisto, extra thick," she shared.
Dinner parties in the Beckham home
Elsewhere in the interview, Victoria revealed that she takes on a 'creative director' role when the couple host dinner parties. "I'm not going to lie, I’m not up early doing the cooking," she admitted.
Instead she takes charge of playlists - she's a fan of Ella Fitzgerald - setting up the Cire Trudon, organising the guest list and the table plan. She and David work on the menu together, and he takes charge of wine, knowing his wife's brief is "red, French, burgundy" and that it must be served in a glass whose proportions "have got to be correct". "Correct, by the way, means big," the publication notes.
Brooklyn avoids his family in Paris
It comes after Brooklyn and his wife Nicola avoided his family in Paris - despite being just miles apart.
The couple stepped out for a date night after missing fashion designer Victoria's latest PFW show on Friday, even though they were in the French capital at the same time as David, Harper, Romeo and Cruz, who turned out to support Victoria.
David's touching tribute to wife Victoria
Following the show, proud husband David praised his wife and her work. He wrote: "We are so proud of you, yet again you show your elegance, passion & beauty in how you want people to feel in your clothes.
"We feel so lucky to be part of your beautiful night in a place that we love so much . Well done, we couldn’t be prouder."
The 51-year-old also shared a photo posing with his wife, as well as a snap featuring their children Romeo, 24, Cruz, 21, and Harper, 15. His sons' girlfriends Kim Turnbull and Jackie Apostel also posed in the family shot.
After the show ended, Victoria had also shared a post on Instagram featuring the same family shot, as well as several of the guests who attended.
"To my friends and family, I feel so blessed to have you all by my side xxx," she wrote. Sir David also commented on that post, writing: "We are all so proud of you as always. Pure elegance, grace & beauty, what a beauty show. We love you." Posting a story of the models walking on the runway, the couple's youngest son Cruz also tagged his mum and wrote: "Killed it as always."
Brooklyn's rift with his family
In January, Brooklyn shared a statement on social media accusing his parents of "controlling" him, "trying to ruin" his relationship with his wife, and of basing family love on the public promotion of "Brand Beckham".
In his six-page Instagram statement in January, Brooklyn made clear that relations with his parents had broken down, saying he had been forced to respond after they had "continued to go to the press".
He made claims including that his mother had "cancelled making Nicola's [wedding] dress at the eleventh hour" and "danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone" during the ceremony.
He also claimed his family values "public promotion and endorsements above all else", adding that "family 'love' is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo opp".
