David Beckham recently revealed his wife Victoria has eaten the same meal every day for 25 years.
But the former England captain’s taste in food couldn’t be more different to his famous other half.
Victoria - who was dubbed Posh during her time in the Spice Girls - sticks to eating grilled fish and steamed vegetables in order to maintain her trim figure.
While ex-footballer David also likes to keep fit, his favourite food is a bit more relatable to your average Brit.
Despite eating in some of the fanciest restaurants in the world, the 46-year-old says you can’t beat a packet of crisps and a baked bean toastie.

Speaking to the River Cafe Table 4 podcast, David was asked to name his comfort foods.
“After talking about all of this great food and all of these great restaurants I go to, my comfort food is a packet of salt and vinegar Discos,” he said.
“And maybe a toastie made in the Brevile toaster with baked beans.”
Explaining how he makes this comfort dish, David continued: “I put the bread in – Hovis.
“A little bit of butter on the outside so it doesn’t stick. I put the baked beans in, toast it for four or five minutes, and open it up. No cheese.
“That and a packet of Discos. I'm more of a crisp man than a chocolate.”
The revelation came in the second part of an interview with the River Cafe team which David had taken part in.
In an episode aired last week, the millionaire sports star shocked listeners by admitting he had spent thousands of pounds on wine when he had no idea what it would taste like.
He also confessed his wife Victoria had eaten the same meal for two decades – and had only eaten off his plate once when she was pregnant with youngest child Harper, who is now 10.
David told the podcast: “I get quite emotional about food and wine. When I'm eating something great I want everyone to try it.
"Unfortunately, I'm married to someone who has eaten the same thing for the last 25 years. Since I've met Victoria, she only eats grilled fish, steamed vegetables. She'll very rarely deviate away from there."
He went on to say: “The only time she's shared something that's been on my plate is when she was pregnant with Harper, and it was the most amazing thing.
"It was one of my favourite evenings. I can't remember what it was, but I know she's not eaten it since."
