Who would’ve thought that the celebrity couple making wholesome headlines this week would be the Beckhams?
Both the fashion designer and football player, who have been married over 20 years, have unexpectedly been sharing candid details about their romance in different ways over the past few days. Victoria, in the form of a ridiculously cute throwback video and David, by opening up about his first meeting with the former Spice Girl and the memento he still has to this day.
The short clip from some 20 years ago that Victoria posted shows her interviewing her soon to be husband. “When did you realise you were really famous?” she asks as they sit on a couch. He replies, “Straight away,” which makes Victoria start giggling, before turning to the camera and saying, “It was when he first started going out with me, I think, actually.”
Victoria then leans in to hug David as an off-camera interviewer asks him what made him fall in love with her. “I couldn’t put my finger on one thing,” he says in response. “It was everything, the whole package. I just fell in love with it.”
David then tries to wrap up the conversation to which Victoria replies, “Am I boring?”
“No darling, you’re brilliant,” he says. “But I’m tired.” The two then hug again and Victoria says, “He’s very sexy isn’t he?”
Later that day, during an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, David revealed how he first met his wife, saying that on their second meeting he finally plucked up the courage to ask for her number.
“She came to watch me in a game in London with her manager at the time and one of the other Spice Girls, Sporty Spice,” he said.
Victoria travelled to Manchester the following week, where David asked for her number, which she gave him on a train ticket that he still has to this day. “She’d had a couple of drinks so I decided why not, I’ll try and get her number,” he said.
“We talked for about an hour in the players’ lounge. She actually got the train up that day so she wrote her number down on her train ticket, which I still have.”
