AIBU?

To think Victoria Beckham really has it all? Baby Harper is too adorable for words

including her other kids.

I don't know if it's pretty shallow (but I like fancy stuff Grin) but I can't see many women refusing her life and wardrobe. I could do without the fame - have no interest in that at all.

VB has managed to:

  • Stay thin (something a lot of women would kill for)
  • All her children, esp Harper are adorable. No dodgy looking kids for her brood
  • So much money. Never ever has to worry about providing for her kids
  • She's attractive
  • Her Husband is pretty cool.
  • She has family support


She must know she has a pretty enviable life!

She makes having a family SO attractive. On the streets, I just see harassed parents.

I wouldn't want her life.

A paparazzi would have his long lens shoved up his rectal passage quicker than you could say airmiles-give-you-DVT.

I like her but am in no way jealous of her. I'd hate the pressure to stay so thin, be expected to wear heels all the time, wear uncomfortable tight clothes (give me a hoodie and jeans any day!).
Does having attractive children really make life better?

God I'd hate to be famous. Hate, hate, hate it.

All the riches and cute kids in the world wouldn't be worth it for me.

Great to have that kind of financial freedom though.

Your whole post is incredibly shallow 'no dodgy looking kids' really????

She doesn't have a faithful husband and she never looks happy.

Yes no dodgy looking kids. What's so shallow about saying that? I would still be thinking it.

I have already said the fame aspect doesn't appeal and it probably wouldn't appeal to the majority of women. The other aspect of her life, I reckon more women would want her life than they are prepared to say so.

VB is one of those women I happen to like, despite bad press, but for the love of god, I'd be wanting to feed her because she looks so frail.

I can honestly say I've never envied VB her lifestyle.

80 per cent of women on here probably have unfaithful husbands and empty pockets. She seems to be dealing with her hubby just fine.

On the streets the harassed parents you see are probably working 50hrs a week for minimum wage & scrimping to pay the mortgage (us).

the beckhams don't have them kinda problems

80% of women have unfaithful husbands? No wonder you're envying celebs their trinkets if that's your worldview.

I find your post quite shallow.

Could you care to elebrate on dodgy looking kids.

I imagine she is very happy, I hope she is. I've a rather large soft spot for the the Beckhams.

Show me a picture of her fitted kitchen, then I'll tell you if I want to be her Grin

Now, that's shallow.

But I wouldn't want to be married to DB, that girly voice, none too bright, and he's coloured himself in. If you saw that in a beany hat wandering through Romford market, you'd be pulling your handbag real close

Would you really want to be that thin though? I mean I know you think it looks good but imagine how little you'd have to eat. She must be restricting her diet every day of her life, doesn't sound fun to me.

I Love vb shes a beautiful woman with a great figure, career, money, and 4 gorgeous children and db!!!

She always looks amazing and she's never without haper who its as cute as a button. She is happy I think and apparently has a fantastic sense of humour.

She seems to have balanced every aspect of her life well and deserves everything shes achieved as she has put the work in and came far from hef spice girl days

Id rather have my dc and dh - but her money. Keep your fame, no thanks.

You do sound shallow because of the emphasis on looks. If you have read her books, you'd know she has a pretty low opinion of her own looks and is very insecure. All that glitters is not gold.

David is pretty bloody gorgeous tho....:)

A H who played away and half the world knows about it.

Perpetual rumours about who he is now shagging/has shagged male and female.

Pictures of herself plastered all over the papers always commenting what a miserable bitch she is and maybe she should smile.

Two of the most stupid half football fake tits. Thank god she got rid of them.

Not for me thank you.

She must never eat a proper meal, and she does work really hard for what she has although I know people who work really hard for an awful lot less

I'd far rather have my life than you very much. my DH is far sexier than DB.

I think talentless, fame-seeking, vacuous knobber probably covers what I think of VB.

Harper is VERY cute, though. I'll give you that one.

Aren't all put children beautiful? I don't look at her kids and think anything but when I look at mine they look like angels.
I also had the courage and savvy to dump my husband when he cheated I didn't have to hang off his arm grinning like a Cheshire Cat to prove anything. So no I wouldn't swap for the world
