Victoria Beckham has insisted she “came from a working-class background” after David’s comments in his Netflix series went viral. The former Spice Girl was mocked when she declared in the documentary ‘Beckham’ she was “very working-class” despite being driven to school in her dad’s luxury car.

It saw David ordering Victoria to “be honest” and repeatedly asking her what car he dad drove her to school in when he overheard her saying she came from humble roots while she told him it was “not a simple answer”.

She has now told Vogue Australia about her comments, saying: “You know, my dad had a Rolls-Royce and he also had a white van. I came from a working-class background and so my dad in the ’80s, he was an entrepreneur, he started his business with my mum at the kitchen table and he did very well, so he bought himself a Rolls-Royce.”

Victoria, known as Posh Spice in her Spice Girls days, added: “We went to a regular school and we didn’t live in a big house and the minute he made money he went and bought himself a Rolls-Royce.

“One day we’d go to school in the Rolls-Royce and one day we’d go in the van because he’d still work, he was an electrical wholesaler and he was very much a worker.”

Victoria admitted she was mortified at the prospect of being driven to school in the fancy car as she was desperate to fit in at the time. She said: “Me and my siblings used to beg him, ‘Can we please go to school in the white van?'”

“Like, we were mortified at the idea of going in the Rolls-Royce. How things have changed! Nowadays, I’d be like, ‘Don’t worry about the van, let’s go in the Roller!’ But in those days, we just wanted to fit in.”

Meanwhile, Victoria also opened up to the publication saying she has ‘pinch-me moments’ thinking about her ‘rare’ relationship with her husband. The couple recently celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary, having tied the knot two years after they started dating, before welcoming four children – Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper Seven – together.

Speaking to Nicola Kidman about her relationship with former Manchester United and Englan player David, Victoria said she ‘loves’ spending time with her other half and called him ‘very funny’ as she gushed over their strong relationship. Victoria said: “I have a husband I very much am still in love with, possibly more than when we first met. We really laugh. And we really support each other in regards to our careers and passions.”

The fashion designer continued: “I said to him last night – and the kids – after 25 years, I love your dad so much and I support him and continue to want him to be the best version of himself, and he does that for me. And it’s really important that the children see that.”

She added that she appreciates that she never had to compromise when it came to her fruitful career. Victoria said “Me and David can go away, just the two of us, and we laugh and we enjoy that time, and I think that’s so rare after so many years. It’s a pinch-me moment every day.”
