Victoria Beckham has opened up about one of the most mysterious chapters of her life, revealing she kept her eating disorder a secret, even from her husband, David Beckham.
Speaking on Call Her Daddy with host Alex Cooper, the former Spice Girl shared that she didn’t confide in anyone during her struggle, saying she “couldn’t trust anyone at all.”
While David knew she was “very disciplined” about food, Victoria admitted she dealt with it privately and slowly learned to build a healthier relationship with eating.
She recalled losing “all sense of reality” as the media relentlessly commented on her body, calling her both “Porky Posh” and “Skinny Posh.”
The scrutiny intensified when she was labeled “fat” after being photographed in a bikini during her pregnancy with her eldest son, Brooklyn.
Despite the pain, Victoria credited David for helping her shift her mindset toward fitness, revealing he encouraged her to start weight training instead of over-exercising.
Now, the couple prioritizes communication and balance. “It’s about health, not perfection,” she said, a reminder of how far she’s come from those difficult years.
