VICTORIA Beckham failed to see the funny side of gushing gags about husband David at Monday’s Fashion Awards.
The fashionista, 44, was seen scowling on big screens at the Royal Albert Hall as host Jack Whitehall joked how David outshone her and Meghan Markle, 37, at the royal wedding.

Jack, 30, barely acknowledged Victoria while heaping praise on David, 43, even though she was the one nominated for an award after celebrating 10 years in the fashion industry.
The comedian said: “David is here tonight fresh from winning the royal wedding, congratulations on that.
“Whole day, all that planning, the Givenchy dress and all anyone could talk about on Twitter was how good you looked in a morning suit.
“You were basically this wedding’s Pippa Middleton’s a**e.”

Referencing an infamous outfit of Becks’, he added: “When you come to my wedding, I’m picking your outfit. I’m gonna pick you out a sarong.”
After Meghan presented the award for British Womenswear Designer of the Year, which Victoria was nominated for but lost to the Duchess’ wedding dress maker Clare Waight Keller, Jack said: “I think we all know what everyone’s going to be writing about tomorrow – how amazing David Beckham looks in his double-breasted suit. You’re looking fly tonight my friend.”
When teeing up a musical performance by Ellie Goulding, 31, he quipped: “Last time I introduced her it was at the royal wedding reception – Eugenie’s, not the one that David ruined.”
The gags came after an insider told The Sun how David’s friendliness with Rita Ora, 28, at the pre-awards reception got partygoers talking.

They said: “He seemed quite charmed by Rita and said they should work together.”
David worked the room at the reception without Victoria and the pair barely spoke as they sat with their backs to each other at the awards after-party.
A source said: “They were only seen briefly speaking to each other once in about 25 minutes before they left.
“They made an effort to look cosier when a crowd built around their table.”
A spokesman for David said: “David, Victoria and Brooklyn had a fantastic night together at the Awards and party.”
Divorce rumours in the summer were rubbished by the couple’s reps.
