And he is equally fragrant - recalling a match where he swapped shirts with Brazilian player Robert Carlos, David told the magazine: "He turned round after changing with me and said it smelt unbelievable."

The Real Madrid star admitted he will find it difficult to adapt to life after football, "It’s going to be hard to beat the buzz of walking on to a pitch in front of 90,000 people," he said. "I think it’s going to be hard to get used to."

The full interview is in the November issue of Glamour, out on Thursday.

David and Victoria Beckham arrived in Venice today for the worldwide launch of their his’n’hers perfume range.

And David demonstrated his unique fashion sense in a baker-boy cap, waistcoat and giant "man-bag".

The Real Madrid star gave Victoria’s knee a playful squeeze as they took a private boat from the airport to their suite at the exclusive Hotel Daniele. Victoria, 32, and David, 31, are in the Italian city to attend a party for their Intimately Beckham scent. It went on sale in the UK last month but tonight’s glitzy event is the official launch.

Victoria got drunk - Aug 24, 2020
Victoria Beckham got drunk on a night out in London without her husband or her wedding ring. The former Spice Girl, the wife of footballer David Beckham, was celebrating a friend’s birthday on Tuesday night (22.08.06) and had to be helped out of a club by a minder at 4.45am after having too much to drink.

A witness said: "She looked tipsy to say the least." Victoria, 32, allegedly downed glasses of £250-a-bottle Dom Perignon champagne and Matsuhisa Martini cocktails during a seven hour binge drinking session. The star was wearing a skimpy lace top and bell-bottomed trousers, but was not wearing her wedding ring.

The couple’s marriage has been at the centre of negative rumours recently, and it is also believed the couple are now struggling to conceive for a fourth time. Victoria and David are said to be trying for another baby because they are desperate for a girl. The couple already have three sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.

Victoria was celebrating the 32nd birthday of her friend Tana Ramsay - wife of British TV chef Gordon Ramsay. The evening began at sushi restaurant Nobu and finished at the Fifty Club in London’s Mayfair.

Biography

Victoria Caroline Adams was born to a wealthy Hertfordshire family in 1975, in fact so wealthy her father, the owner of an electrical wholesale company, reportedly drove her to school in a Rolls Royce (much to her embarrassment).

Victoria wanted to be famous from a young age, taking dance lessons after watching Fame and attending the Jason Theatre School in Enfield from the age of 8 until she was seventeen. This was when she secured a place at the Laine Arts Theatre College in Surrey and began auditioning for bands.

In March of 1993, when she spotted an ad in The Stage: "Are you between 18 and 23 and are able to sing and dance? Are you street-smart, extrovert, ambitious and serious about it?" Victoria joined Geri, Mel B and Mel C along with a girl called Michelle (who would later be replaced by Victoria’s childhood friend Emma Bunton) in winning a place in the Spice Girls. After a rocky start the group signed to Virgin Records and became the biggest girl group ever, releasing hit singles and albums year after year, making a succesful feature film and becoming one of the most influential bands of the nineties and inspiration to millions of young girls.

However, the Spice Girls’ bubble eventually burst as Geri left to pursue a solo career and although the remaining four released a few more singles the magic had gone and after recording a final album they went their seperate ways. Victoria bided her time before launching her first solo single, Out Of Your Mind, in collaboration with Truesteppers and Dane Bowers.  The single coiincided with the release of Sophie Ellis Bextor’s collaboration with Spiller and resulted in a chart battle which Sophie won.  The defeat reflected badly on Victoria and her solo career seemed to go from bad to worse.  Her next single, Not Such An Innocent Girl found itself up against Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head, which only served to highlight the difference in quality between Victoria’s efforts and those of established pop stars.  Her debut album was released two weeks later and on managing to only just edge in to the top ten Victoria was dropped by Virgin.

On hooking up with former Spice Girls manager Simon Fuller, Victoria decided to take a more R&B influenced turn, against her manager’s advice.  She began a friendship with Damon Dash who not only assisted Victoria in her musical direction but signed her up to model for his Rocawear label.  A dounle A side, Let Your Head Go/This Groove, was released in the week following Christmas 2003 but charting at number 3 in the single chart’s least competetive week it was considered a commercial flop.  The single remains Victoria’s last release although she has regularly returned to the studio to work with, among others, Cathy Dennis.  Several tracks remain unreleased and Victoria claims that she’ll only sing again if the Spice Girls reunite.

Concentrating on her fashion career, Victoria as previously designed for Rock and Republic as well as modelling for Rocawear and Maria Grachvogel.  Her second book (her first was an autobiography, Learning to Fly), That Extra Half An Inch: Heels, Hair and Everything in Between, cemented Victoria’s influence as a fashion icon.

In 1997 Victoria met British footballing icon David Beckham and before long they were the country’s most talked about couple.  Victoria fell pregnant two years later and following the birth of their first son, Brooklyn, the couple were married in a lavish ceremony at Ireland’s Luttrellstown Castle.  Despite rumours of David’s infidelity and problems moving between Britain and Spain for his career the Beckham’s marriage remains strong and they have had two further sons, Romeo (born 2002) and Cruz (born 2005).  The family plan to move to Los Angeles later this year with plans to create a relaity show based around the move.  Meanwhile rumours of a Spice Girls reunion persist.  We might get Victoria back in front of that mic yet.
