David and Victoria Beckham are celebrating a milestone in their marriage!

For 25 years, the fashion designer, 50, and the former soccer star, 49, have been couple goals — madly in love and powerhouses in their respective fields.

Victoria, a former member of the bestselling girl group Spice Girls, launched a successful eponymous fashion line, winning designer brand of the year at the 2011 British Fashion Awards. Meanwhile, David has won several major trophies in his 20 years on the pitch, including 6 Premier League titles and a Champions League trophy. Both have been appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II for contributions to their industries.

The pair share four children: sons Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, and Cruz, 19, and daughter Harper, 12. In a Mother’s Day letter for TIME in 2015, Victoria called being a mom “the greatest achievement” of her life.

Their marriage has withstood periods of difficulty and change over the years, including navigating the tabloids in the early 2000s, moving to Los Angeles for David’s stint with the L.A. Galaxy and welcoming four kids into their lives.

“We stay together because we love each other, because we have four amazing children,” David said in a 2017 interview with BBC Radio 4’s Desert Island Discs, when he revealed the couple renewed their vows. “Do you go through tough times? Of course. That’s part of relationships. It’s part of marriages. It’s part of having children. It’s part of having responsibilities.”
