Two years after David Beckham and Netflix let us into the family’s sprawling Cotswolds home, offering us a glimpse into everything from his legendary football career to his OCD cleaning rituals, the Beckhams (minus Brooklyn, aside from footage of him as a baby) are back on our screens. On Thursday, the streaming giant released Victoria Beckham, a three-part series that follows the pop star turned fashion designer ahead of showing her spring/summer ‘25 at Paris fashion week.

They don’t seem to own any mugs
Kitchen cabinets are usually filled with a range of questionable novelty mugs alongside the usual dinnerware, but not at the Beckham headquarters, it appears. Victoria seems to exclusively drink out of sippy cups, including glass and steel versions. She also uses a glass straw with a tiny monogrammed VB – a birthday gift from her parents that her mum, Jackie Adams, reminds her about as Victoria mixes her a gin and Coke. The only time we see Victoria sip from a traditional vessel is when she glugs a glass of red wine before the couple head to a dinner with King Charles. A pretty confident move when wearing white silk.
