Victoria Beckham is stepping into the spotlight once more – this time, solo. Following the runaway success of the Beckham docuseries (and yes, that Rolls-Royce moment), the former Spice Girl turned fashion mogul has debuted her own documentary with Netflix. “My husband convinced me to do this documentary,” Beckham said in a recent interview. “To be honest, I wasn’t sure anybody would really want to see what I do every day.” But if anyone’s earned the right to tell her story on her own terms, it’s Posh.
Below, everything you need to know about Victoria Beckham’s docuseries.
What is the show about?
This time, the cameras are focused on Beckham's two decades of work in fashion and beauty – her role as founder and creative director, the grit behind the glamour. “I’ve been very defined by a four-year period in my life when I was in the Spice Girls,” Beckham said. “And I am so proud of that. But with that came all the preconceptions.” Since then, she's built her namesake label into a global brand stocked in 230 stores across 50 countries. Now, she says, “I can talk about the journey, I can talk about struggles, because I can do that confidently... Nothing is sugarcoated.”
AS for exactly what she means, Beckham delves into the harsh realities of running a business (including being "millions" of pounds in debt), her ongoing struggles with the press, and how this impacted her own self-image.
And yes, there are tears. “What am I going to think when I see those tears on a huge screen? Or on an iPhone?” she said. As for scenes with David? “He might end up on the cutting-room floor,” she joked.
Where can I stream it?
The show is now available to stream exclusively on Netflix.
