Victoria Beckham's ‘body-image issues will feature in upcoming documentary'
Victoria Beckham's 'body-image issues' will reportedly feature in her upcoming documentary. The 51-year-old former Spice Girl is putting out a new Netflix docuseries which premieres in September, and insiders say it will involve the singer-turned-fashion designer speaking candidly about the impact of decades of pressure from being in the public eye. Page Six reported the show 'reveals how years of negative attention led to body-image issues and a restricted diet'. An industry insider told the outlet: 'When you look back in hindsight at the media environment in the '90s, it was super hard. 'There was a huge scrutiny on Victoria's appearance and her weight. 'I think the audience will have some understanding of what she went through.' Victoria has already admitted 'there are tears' in the footage of her three-part show, adding to Bloomberg: 'And it did occur to me the other day, what am I going to think when I see those tears on a huge screen? Or on an iPhone?' Titled Victoria Beckham, the series follows Victoria as she prepares to stage the largest fashion show of her career during Paris Fashion Week in September 2024 for her eponymous brand. Her husband, David Beckham, 50, and their children make brief appearances, including Brooklyn, 25, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, though the footage was filmed before the family's reported recent estrangement. Victoria's mis-treatment by the public and British media has already been shown in the 2023 Emmy-winning Netflix docuseries Beckham about her husband David. It saw her recall being the subject of X-rated chants from crowds at his soccer games, saying, 'It's embarrassing, it's hurtful.' Sources also told Page Six her new documentary will see Victoria looking back on archival footage including when TV presenter Chris Evans pushed her to be weighed live on air in 1999 — just two months after she gave birth to Brooklyn. David has said on the River Cafe Table 4 podcast about Victoria's strict diet: 'Unfortunately I'm married to someone that has eaten the same thing for the last 25 years. Since I met her she only eats grilled fish, steamed vegetables. She will very rarely deviate from that.' She has revealed her occasional indulgence is tequila. The new documentary is also set to chart Victoria's journey from Posh Spice to fashion designer, highlighting her struggles to establish and sustain her brand. Victoria told Bloomberg: 'I've been very defined by a four-year period in my life when I was in the Spice Girls. And I am so proud of that. But with that came all the preconceptions. 'I've been in the fashion industry creating my own collections for nearly 20 years. And it's taken this long for me to feel confident enough in what I do and my brand, knowing that now is the time that I can talk about my past.'

David Beckham's 'favourite meal' is very unusual thanks to one ingredient
The former footballer has once again proved he's just a regular guy at heart by sharing a picture of his "favourite" meal - but while some fans agreed with him, others were left baffled David Beckham is keen to show he's still a man of simple tastes. Despite having a whopping £400m fortune in the bank, the ex-England skipper previously said one of his favourite meals was a classic ham, egg and chips. However, as we previously revealed, it came with some very controversial additions. The footballing legend, who turns 50 today (May 2, posted a snap of the meal to Instagram. He accompanied it with the caption: "Last night's feast one of my favourites growing up. Thanks mum. Gammon, chips, fried egg, tinned pineapple, peas and baked beans, coleslaw." Diving into the comments, one fan said: "Pineapple does not belong on a main meal." While another was flabbergasted: "Coleslaw and mushy peas? Has everyone gone berserk?" But, supporting Becks' food choice, a fan said: "Perfectly acceptable dinner. Egg goes well with gammon, coleslaw with pineapple, chips with peas." Health benefits of pineapples Pineapple contains plenty of antioxidants and digestive enzymes that may support gut health. Canned pineapple has a large amount of vitamin C, which can boost the immune system and maintain healthy skin. In fact, according to Live Strong, one cup provides 21% of your daily needs of the vitamin. But there are things to be wary of when opting for the tinned fruit variety rather than the actual fruit. Some canned pineapple is preserved in sugar-sweetened syrup, which could prove an issue for people with blood sugar conditions such as type 2 diabetes. You should consult a doctor if you have such issues before adding canned pineapple or fresh pineapple to your diet in large quantities. The Beckhams' other food favourites While having some pineapple next to beans, eggs and chips may seem strange to many, it does come with its own health benefits. David's culinary preferences starkly contrast with those of his stylish wife, Victoria. Former Spice Girl 'Posh Spice', Victoria sticks to a regimented menu of grilled fish and steamed veggies to stay slender. Although David, a fitness enthusiast himself, has a taste more aligned with your everyday Brit. Even with access to the world's most exclusive eateries, he claims nothing tops crisps and a hearty baked bean toastie. On the River Cafe Table 4 podcast earlier this year, David was prompted to reveal his comfort food picks. "After talking about all of this great food and all of these great restaurants I go to, my comfort food is a packet of salt and vinegar Discos," he confessed. "And maybe a toastie made in the Brevile toaster with baked beans." David went on to detail his method for creating this simple yet satisfying dish: "I put the bread in – Hovis. "A little bit of butter on the outside so it doesn't stick. I put the baked beans in, toast it for four or five minutes, and open it up. No cheese. That and a packet of Discos. I'm more of a crisp man than a chocolate."
