Victoria Beckham doesn't like to spice up her diet.
The PoinbankSpice Girls alum shared that she "works hard" to keep a strict wellness routine in order to maintain the physique she wants.
"I'm very disciplined with the way that I eat, the way that I work out and the way I work," Victoria told Grazia in an interview published May 28. "That's just who I am."
Through her health journey, the "Wannabe" singer also learned to let go of others' opinions on her appearance.
"You just become more accepting, don't you?" Victoria said. "This is how I look. I'm going to make the best of it, work hard at it."
And that's not to say that the 50-year-old never lets loose. In fact, Victoria—who shares sons Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, and Cruz, 19, as well as daughter Harper, 12, with husband David Beckham—admitted that she does "like to have a drink" every now and then.
"I'm not going to be one of these, ‘Ah, there are too many calories in a glass of wine' types," she explained. "Whatever. Life's too short. Let's have a nice time."
But most of the time, the key is consistency. Back in December, David shared that his wife has "eaten the same thing for the last 25 years."
"Since I met her she only eats grilled fish [and] steamed vegetables," the retired soccer star said during an episode of Ruthie's Table 4 podcast. "She will very rarely deviate from that."
And David only has one memory of Victoria making an exception to her eating rules.
"The only time she's probably ever shared something that's been on my plate was actually when she was pregnant with Harper and it was the most amazing thing," he recalled. "It was one of my favorite evenings."
Keep reading to revisit Victoria's evolution through the years.
"I was called Posh because I liked the nice restaurants, and the nice clothes, and that was my character," Victoria Beckham explained in the documentary The Spice Girls Story: Viva Forever! of her adopted persona. "I didn't smile, even in those days. There was this very strong image."
"Posh Spice' came about because of how I looked," Beckham remembered in her book That Extra Half an Inch: Hair, Heels and Everything in Between. "The bob, the heels, the little black Gucci dress. Except that it wasn't Gucci. It was Miss Selfridge."
More than a decade before rapper Wiz Khalifa popularized the hues, Beckham went with bold stripes at the Brit Awards.
"We really considered those outfits," Beckham said of the all-black-everything Gucci leather 'fits she and husband David Beckham selected for an outing to a (whoops!) Versace gala.
A white suit plus a very-of-the-moment statement necklace proved she was indeed posh.
Beckham spiced up Elton John's White Tie and Tiara Ball by once again coordinating with her forever teammate.
She kept it casual in a pair of flare jeans and a white tank top for the Dior Dance for Life to Benefit the Aaliyah Memorial Fund.
Two sides became one in a lace-up Dolce & Gabbana at the MTV Movie Awards. “I used to wear lots of structured dresses with corsetry, and I do still have some of those dresses, but my personal style has become more relaxed,” Beckham told The Guardian. “Looking back, I guess it was a sign of insecurity that I would always wear clothes that were very tight, very fitted.”
Her nonnegotiable fashion rule: "Go with your gut instinct," she told The Guardian. "I always say I can handle mistakes that were made by me, but not mistakes that were made against my instinct."
Proving she was no fashion wannabe, Beckham lit up the Swarovski Fashion Rocks red carpet in a revealing green and blue Roberto Cavalli dress.
Mi bella! Beckham stepped out in Paris wearing feminine ruffles and gilded heels.
"Fashion is where I feel comfortable," Beckham has said, both of designing and selecting sleek threads like this Oscars look, "and where I feel excited."
She and the athlete were all business at the Beckham Signature fragrance launch in NYC.
Sleek, strapless and steely grey were on order for the Marc Jacobs Spring 2009 fashion show.
The pop star-turned-fashion designer made a serious case for traveling in style in this buttoned up mini dress with cape number.
"I had a lot to learn when I started out," Beckham has said of launching her own label, "and I had to surround myself with people who knew about all that stuff." And she had to trust her keen eye, turning up at the 2014 Met Gala in her own design.
The former Spice Girl tucked in a tailored white shirt into a beige, navy, blue and white pleated leather skirt from her very own collection.
This dark tweed set proved that no one wears Victoria Beckham better than the star herself.
The fashion designer embraced the chilly NYC weather in an all black outfit that included a long-sleeved turtleneck shirt and leather boots.
"My confidence has definitely grown as I’ve got older," Beckham (enjoying a spring day in Paris) noted to The Guardian. "I know what works on me, what looks good, what makes me feel confident and comfortable. I don’t feel I have anything to prove now in the way I dress."
Beckham opted for bold—with a touch of blue—when leaving her Dover Street store during London Fashion Week.
"As the business took off and I got busier, my style changed, because I just can’t run around the studio doing everything in high heels," Beckham has explained. Which means she occasionally opts for flats or even (gasp!) sneakers while out.
"It seemed obvious that it had to be Victoria Beckham," the mom of four (rocking her brand's tuxedo-inspired jumpsuit at the Cannes Film Festival) said of her eponymous line. "I knew there were preconceptions attached to my name, but that was a challenge I was prepared to take on. Honestly? There was never really any other option."
She opted for another distinctly feminine Victoria Beckham look for an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
Among the places Beckham (at her London Fashion Week show) seeks out inspiration: Art galleries like Tate Britain in the U.K. and New York City's Frick Collection.
Paris (where she attended the Saint Laurent runway show) and red leather are always a good idea.
"I’m always inspired by menswear," Beckham told CNN in 2023, "you see that in the tailoring."
She brought it like Beckham in a structured suit for the premiere of their four-part Netflix series.
"I’m wearing my signature #VBSS24 tailored suit (coming soon!) and B Frame Belt!," she wrote on Instagram of the ensemble she pulled together for Victoria Beckham x Breitling launch in NYC.
