Victoria Beckham is one of the most photographed women in the world, but we don’t often get any insight into her thoughts and what her family life is really like, but speaking with the September issue of Vogue Australia, she says that her home life is less glamorous than we might think.
“Honestly, once the children are in bed I’d rather work or shove on a face pack and pluck my eyebrows,” she tells Vogue. “By the time Brooklyn’s finally gone to bed, it’s all I’m fit for. Really, we’re much more normal than people think.”
Now that husband David has retired from football, Victoria is looking forward to him having more free time so that the couple can do more things with their four children.
“We’re all so proud of David,” says Victoria. “Having supported him at clubs all over the world for the past 15 years and seen how he has been an inspiration not just to me and the children but also to millions of people, we are now just really excited at the prospect of spending more time as a family.”
Of course, Mrs B isn’t retired yet and her fashion line is earning her great accolade. Not that it stops her worrying how people will react to her collections.
Describing the reveal of her first collection, she says: “Everyone would file in and act so inscrutable. I’d think: ‘Um, did anyone like it?’ No-one would say anything, so I’d just gabble to fill the embarrassing silences – even to the Japanese, who didn’t understand a word I was saying.”.
