Dear Victoria Beckham,

I spent the morning reading about the rift between you and your firstborn and many articles around it. Whilst I know everything written is definitely not true, I fear the element about you and your son going through a hostile estrangement is true, and my heart breaks for you.

I have watched you from your very, very beginnings…
My stepfather was even your earliest vocal coach (from The Platters, the Black American guy William) when you were all in the very first house…

Anyway, I have watched you since then, and we even had a very odd experience in a restaurant loo at the peak of your fame with the girls. The place was called Asia de Cuba in Covent Garden, and you and I were in the ladies’ room washing our hands. No one else was there. You stared and stared at me.

I tried not to stare back.

I wasn’t sure if you recognised me or wondered if I recognised you?!!

I’m famously shy, and didn’t dare think you might have known who I was, so I lowered my glance to give you your privacy, and eventually you walked out.

I often wondered if I should have said something:
“Hello.”
“I like your group.”
“You guys are great.”
Something instead of just looking down and away.

So after seeing all of this stuff today, I have decided to reach out to you, even though I do not know you and I can still be quite shy.

Woman to woman, famous or not, I feel your pain at losing touch with your son, maybe even fearing that he is lost forever.

You still have 3 beautiful children around you and in touch, but it does not make up for the one that is lost… even though you love and cherish them all just as deeply.

It is like it says in the Bible in Luke 15:4–7:

“Does not the shepherd leave his flock of 99 to go and find one missing sheep?”

Of course he does.

If you were all out at a funfair when they were little, and one had gone missing, of course you would leave the others in a safe place or with someone safe and then go looking for the missing child until you found them.

You wouldn’t be able to go home with the remaining 3 thinking,
“Never mind, I still have 3 out of 4.”
It doesn’t work that way.

So of course, no matter how well business is going, your marriage, romance, your other children are excelling and thriving, your beauty and elegance celebrated, your mind will still be preoccupied with the missing child.

God designed you that way, not just you, all mothers.

I’m not sure where you stand spiritually, but if you do believe even a little, this is the time to dig deep into your faith and to start praying for and manifesting a miracle to restore and reconcile you to your child and your extended family.

As much as I empathise with you, there IS something you have done or said, or not done or said, that you need to address. Sometimes we cannot see where we are wrong because we are blinded by the pain we are in or because we are so busy defending ourselves.

Even if you are carrying the tiniest resentment against Mrs Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, you MUST pray to let it go and cast it aside.

The same way you would do if she or he (God forbid) were suddenly on their deathbeds, none of the dispute or drama would be applicable. It would be dropped in an instant, and all you would want is for both of those young people to be well and whole again and not leave a massive hole in each other’s hearts.

Use the same attitude now. Drop any and all insult, angst, justification for anger, ego, etc. Drop it all and pray for God to destroy it and to banish it forever. And if it ever starts to creep back in, pray again. Pray every day, all day if you have to, to cleanse the toxicity out of your system.

Resist any temptation to even think negatively towards either of them or her family.

Do not speak even one word against them. Literally be the bigger person and forgive, and also apologise for any offence or upset they have against you, whether real or imagined (it’s their feelings, so valid).

See how this makes you feel once you give up the inner struggle of what is fair and what is not.

With children… what is fair is what brings peace, love, and reconciliation. The prodigal son was extremely naughty, rude, and entitled, but he was still welcomed home with open arms, a party, and a parent that ran barefoot to greet him far in the distance because they had been waiting and praying for him to appear one day.

It is unfair, but what is fair? If the justice you seek turned out your way, it could end in a deeper stand-off, as their maturity may not ever be able to reach yours. They are kids, kids in love, and they are not mature yet.

I believe and pray that they will be one day soon.

They may not return until they have their first child and possibly name the child after you or David… Gradually they will understand what your love means in context to them…

They will understand how much they hurt you by withdrawing their love from you.

They will understand how deep and wide and thick and rich and unfathomable a parent’s love for their child is because they will feel it for the first time for their own child.

They will want to repay you by allowing you to love your grandchildren…

They will want you in their lives again.

Your job is to wait patiently. And not just to wait, but to wait with a great attitude, full of faith, pre-planning the joyful moments and occasions when you are reconciled, believing in great faith that it will be sooner rather than later, but that no matter how long it takes, it will be good, wonderful, beautiful, and rewarding.

Meanwhile, your other children and David will get the best of you as they witness you digging deep and growing in love and sacrifice, not trying to manipulate or control the situation anymore, letting God take care of it, leaving it in God’s hands, not stressing or complaining.

Speak positively about the couple and their family and keep fresh new hope for the entire family’s future.

But enjoy every day as you wait, so they don’t feel like they are not enough.

Of course they are not enough, the same way it wouldn’t be enough if one of them were lost, but that does not mean that you are not grateful and cherishing your time with them and making them feel your love and devotion…

I honestly see happy, happy times ahead and your grandchildren in the Cotswolds with American accents and you being the most indulgent, content, doting grandmother.

I’m not a psychic, but I do believe God has a plan for you all and that it’s to give you a hope and a future, not disaster.

So please do not despair.

Your stress and despair feed the enemy spirit that wants you under attack instead of happy.

You conquer the enemy by remaining in faith that all will be well and not allowing fear to creep back in.

I hope you don’t mind me writing to you.
It’s none of my business, of course.

I’m just a woman who feels your pain and a fan who knows how hard it is suffering in public, and a pastor offering a solution that I KNOW will win for you all.

You sent me a pair of jeans once… they were for X Factor Judges’ Houses.

They were soooo small I couldn’t get them on, so I couldn’t wear them!

I will end with this scripture:

“Perfect Love Casts Out All Fear”
(1 John 4:18)

• NIV: “There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.”
• KJV: “There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment.”

So I’m saying focus on your love for him. Forget all the drama and upset and details and anger and slights.

Only on the love…

Something will click and all the answers you need will unfold.

Amen.
