Netflix’s ‘Victoria Beckham’ Follows Her Journey From Spice Girls to Fashion Maven

After her husband, socccer legend David Beckham, got the flattering Netflix doc treatment, the former Spice Girl decided she wanted to bend it like Beckham, too, and be the focus of a celebratory authorized TV biography. (Although Victoria claims this was not a vanity project, it was produced by David’s media company.)

This three-part series traces her journey from working-class girl (Supposedly: As she’s begrudgingly admitted that her dad drove her to school in a Rolls-Royce) to international pop icon to designer of a fashion line that’s been plagued by financial problems.

It also follows Lady Victoria — she’s now truly Posh thanks to David’s recent knighthood — as she preps her collection for Paris Fashion Week and spends time with her husband and their four children. Well, three of her kids. It’s unclear if the series will feature eldest son Brooklyn and his billionaire heiress wife, Nicola Peltz, who are currently feuding with the rest of the family. (The bad blood reportedly stems from Nicola’s declining to wear the wedding dress Victoria designed for her.)

While the dirty laundry is unlikely to be aired, a more positive angle — the against-all-odds longevity of Posh and Beck’s union — is actually almost as intriguing. (For one thing, the two are much funnier than their dumb-jock/unsmiling-fashion-diva images.)

A must-see for Spice Girl fans, fashion aficionados and gossip lovers.
