Victoria Beckham has kept son Brooklyn’s milk teeth for more than two decades.

The Spice Girl and fashion designer, 50, took to Instagram on Sunday to share a snap of the 25-year-old’s baby teeth as she joked about her ‘sentimental’ nature.

She shares Brooklyn – as well as Harper, 12, Cruz, 19 and  Romeo, 21 – with her husband David, 49.

Posting the snap to Instagram Stories, the WAG penned: ‘Not that I’m sentimental but… U think I can throw your baby teeth away @brooklynpeltzbeckham?? (sic)’.

Brooklyn is still yet to give his mother a public answer as to whether she can throw away some of his first teeth.

Victoria has proven time and time again that she is every inch the doting mother as continuously keeps her fans updated about their family life.

Her post came just days after the fashionista also revealed close family details about her daughter Harper.

Harper created her mother a PowerPoint presentation to try and convince her to let her have a perm.

In an interview with Grazia, she shared how Harper is wanting to start and try some beauty treatments.

She told how she created the presentation on the computer and showed it to her and David in the hopes of letting her take a trip to the hairdressers.

Harper has long straight blonde hair and a perm uses chemicals to make naturally straight hair curly.

However, despite Harper going to the effort of making the PowerPoint – Victoria admitted that her response to the request was ‘absolutely not’.

Victoria explained her negative response was born from a bad personal experience of having a perm when she was a teenager.

Back in 2022 Victoria shared a snap of her perm as she revealed what she considered to be her ‘teenage dirtbag moments’ as she hopped onto a TikTok trend.

She shared a reel of some of her more unexpected throwback fashion moments, with the Wheatus song, Teenage Dirtbag, played over the top.

The trend saw TikTokers showing off their awkward and embarrassing teenage years and among the pictures Victoria shared were her wearing a silver latex boob tube as well as showing off a giant pout with overlined lips.

She was also sporting an oversized shiny bomber jacket, which were all the rage in the 90s, as well as a giant perm, a sharp contrast to her sleek brunette hairdo.

In the Grazia interview Victoria also revealed that Harper had asked her whether netball was ‘strictly necessary’ when it would probably ‘ruin her nails’.

Elsewhere in the chat she spoke about her changing relationship with her appearance and says she is now less harsh on herself about what she eats and drinks.

She said: ‘You just become more accepting, don’t you? This is how I look. I’m going to make the best of it, work hard at it.

‘I’m very disciplined with the way that I eat, the way that I work out and the way I work. That’s just who I am.

‘But I do like to have a drink and I’m not going to be one these, ‘Ah, there are too many calories in a glass of wine’ types. Whatever. Life’s too short. Let’s have a nice time.’

Harper Beckham visits her mother Victoria’s store in London

It comes after earlier this month Harper had fun at her mother’s flagship store in Dover Street.

Victoria, who turned 50 in April, shared a video to her Instagram Story of Harper posing around the shop and modelling its items.

At the beginning of the Story, Harper could be heard saying: ‘Come with me to visit Victoria Beckham’s shop on Dover Street.’

Victoria set the fun clip to The Lovin’ Spoonful’s Do You Believe In Magic? and wrote over the top: ‘#HarperSeven takes over 36 Dover Street!! Kisses @davidbeckham xx’.

Harper wore a grey hoodie, darker grey jeans, and a pair of white, grey, and black Nike trainers.

Several members of the Spice Girls were left ‘furious’ this week after unflattering details from a conversation emerged in court documents, according to reports.

Mel B, Geri Halliwell and Emma Bunton are said to have been left red-faced after a private conversation between the group was leaked in a defamation case.

According to The Sun, Mel B told her bandmates Geri and Emma that ‘charity doesn’t pay the bills’, during an apparent discussion about reuniting for a gig.

The publication reported that the leaked messages – which were revealed as part of a defamation case in the United States on Wednesday – have infuriated the stars.

It is expected that the embarrassment will continue over a catty exchange between the three band members over their now close-pal Victoria Beckham.

While the group are seemingly thick as thieves again now, there is apparently a string of emails gossiping about the way Victoria acted at the Viva Forever! West End musical premiere on December 11, 2012.

The fashion designer delayed the curtain call of the West End musical based on the Spice Girls’ biggest hits by 15 minutes after getting stuck in traffic.

Once she arrived, she decided to set separately from the rest of the group, taking her seat two rows behind the other women with her husband David and their kids.

According to the publications insider, Victoria’s snub did not go down well with Mel B in particular.

The move came just months after the group lauded ‘girl power’ and reunited as a five-piece at the London Olympics closing ceremony.

It has also been reported that they called in legal assistance in case Victoria tried to stop them from going ahead with a potential tour.

Years later, Mel B, Geri and Emma are said to have planned a comeback – which never happened – without Victoria and Mel C.

It is awkward timing for the group, who now on seemingly good terms after recently celebrating Victoria’s 50th birthday together at her party in London.

Hopefully the emergence of a group chat between Geri, Emma and Mel B won’t cause any tension between the pals.

The report claims that after Mel commented that ‘charity doesn’t pay’, Geri told her that she ‘hopes nobody ever hacks your texts’.

Mel allegedly responded: ‘Why? My texts are fine,’ before adding: ‘Like I said charity doesn’t pay the bills everyone knows that.’

The source said: ‘This is highly embarrassing for the girls as it doesn’t exactly chime with their core messages. But obviously it was a fair few years ago now and they’ve all kissed and made up since then.

‘Just look at how happy they were together celebrating Victoria’s 50th birthday back in April, belting out their greatest hits together after a few drinks. The hatchet is well and truly buried.’

MailOnline contacted a representative for the Spice Girls for comment.

The leak will be unwelcome news to Geri, who has already been engulfed in a leaked messages scandal with her husband Christian Horner earlier this year.

On Wednesday, Geri made her first public appearance alone on at the Hay Festival where she is promoting her latest book, Rosie Frost and the Falcon Queen.

Geri beamed as she held a signing for her new novel which features main character Rosie, the star describes as ‘a new kind of hero for today’s young readers.’

One onlooker said: ‘Geri looked really smiley and happy. She was having her photo take with loads of kids and even two female police officers who had used their lunch break to meet her.

‘There were lots of people queuing to see their favourite Spice Girl.’

Before her talk the former Spice Girl hung out in the festival’s authors tent alongside the BBC football pundit, Gary Lineker.

According to an insider, Geri was in great spirits asking the staff ‘thousands’ of questions, taking interest in fellow speakers and asking for copies of books – in particular, one about the importance of mushrooms.

However, she refused to address her anguish over leaked flirtatious messages which her husband of nine years, Red Bull boss Christian, allegedly sent to a female colleague when asked by the Mail.

In February he found himself under investigation following an accusation of ‘inappropriate behaviour’, for which he was later cleared.

The woman, in her 40s, went to HR at the Formula 1 team after she received the messages from Horner, often late at night.

She accused him of ‘coercive behaviour’ but an internal inquiry chaired by an unknown KC appointed by Red Bull cleared him. Horner has strongly denied any wrongdoing.

Tyson Fury is in training camp ahead of his undisputed clash against Oleksandr Usyk.

Boxing fans are worried for Tyson Fury after training footage emerged online ahead of his blockbuster fight against Oleksandr Usyk.

Fury meets Usyk in a big undisputed showdown on May 18 following the postponement of their February clash.

The WBC, WBA (super), WBO and IBF world heavyweight titles will be on the line when the two heavyweight stars collide in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Fury is back in training camp after a nasty cut forced him to withdraw last month.

Footage of the self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ in preparation for his fight against Usyk has surfaced online.

And fight fans are concerned for the unbeaten British star, who went through his paces in a strength and conditioning session. Check it out below:

The clip shows him on sled pushes and performing squats, leaving people on social media unimpressed.

One X user wrote: “Oh crap he looks awful. Please let him beat Usyk.”

A second tweeted: “That is genuinely some of the least impressive jumping up and down I’ve ever seen.”

A third added: “He looks like it’s first ever time in a gym every time.”

Another commented: “He jumps up and down like a toddler.”

Fury hasn’t fought since his underwhelming victory over former UFC champion Francis Ngannou last October.

He beat Dereck Chisora in the last defence of his WBC title as he looks collect the other three belts in the division.

If he beats Usyk, then an all-British showdown against Anthony Joshua could be next.

Joshua brutally stopped Ngannou earlier this month, but his victory didn’t impress Fury.

“I’m still dismissive of him,” he said. “AJ’s made to measure for me. Just because he knocked out Francis Ngannou – it’s not the same. He couldn’t land any of those rights on Usyk, a way smaller and lighter man. Styles make fights and his style is made for me.”

Tyson Fury has his say on Mike Tyson fighting Jake Paul.

Tyson Fury held nothing back as he gave a shock prediction for Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul.

Tyson is set to face Paul at AT&T Stadium on July 20 in a bout that will be aired on Netflix.

It will be the boxing legend’s first appearance since his exhibition against Roy Jones Jr back in November 2020.

As for Paul, he makes a swift return to the ring, having recorded a big win over Ryan Bourland earlier this month.

The match-up pitting Tyson against Paul has been widely condemned by fans and critics alike in the combat sports world.

UFC boss Dana White pulled no punches as he shared his honest thoughts on ‘Iron’ Mike coming back.

Former UFC middleweight champion Sean Strickland destroyed Paul for facing Tyson in an astonishing rant.

Joe Rogan, however, has backed Tyson to beat Paul.

And Fury has echoed the same sentiment, giving a shock prediction.

The self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ has supported Tyson returning to the sport and calls his against Paul an ‘even match’.

Speaking to The Stomping Ground, he said: “I think it’s fantastic for boxing.

“You’ve got a legend in Mike Tyson. You’ve got a YouTube boxer [Jake Paul]. He has come into the game and blew it up and he’s got millions of followers and millions of views and millions of eyes. Good, bad or indifferent. Some people love him, some people hate him.

“So, I think it’s a really good spectacle for boxing. Brings a lot of people to the game.”

Fury added: “Listen, who am I to say, ‘Oh, Mike Tyson shouldn’t be boxing or Jake Paul shouldn’t be boxing’, good luck to ’em. They’re both gonna make what I call a sh*t ton of money out of it. So, isn’t that what it’s about?

“[They’re fighting at] a great stadium,” Fury referenced AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys.

“It’d be fantastic for the guys both getting paid, both gonna put on a show. I just don’t know what’s not to like. Oh, okay, [Tyson’s] 57 years old, but he’s a former undisputed world heavyweight king, and [Paul] plays computers for a living and he’s come to boxing about a year ago. So, pretty even match.

“From being a kid on the Disney Channel to fighting Mike Tyson. Who wouldn’t want to do that?… People say, ‘Oh, it’s sh*t’, this, that and the other.

“But, I bet they still watch it. Who’s not intrigued?”

The Fury vs Usyk undercard is official.

The undercard for Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk has been officially confirmed – and not all fans are happy.

Fury was due to fight Usyk in a unified heavyweight title clash on February 17, but was forced to withdraw two weeks out from the fight after suffering a cut above his eye in sparring.

The bout was rescheduled for May 18, and will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Usyk’s promoter, Alex Krassyuk, stated that he had ‘no guarantee’ over whether the fight will actually take place, given Fury’s earlier withdrawal.

But the fight date has been set, and the undercard has now been confirmed by TNT Sports.

The undercard will be headlined with Jai Opetaia’s rematch against Mairis Breidis for The Ring cruiserweight title – a match that was due to take place on the original Fury vs Usyk card.

Moses Itauma and Joe Cordina are also on the card, while Agit Kabayel vs Frank Sanchez will also take place on the night in Riyadh.

Elsewhere, the card will also see the return of Russian fighter Sergey Kovalev, who has boxed only once since suffering an 11th-round knockout defeat to Canelo Alvarez in November 2019.

You can see the full undercard below.

However, the undercard hasn’t filled some fans with much excitement for the event.

One wrote: “What a terrible undercard. Surely there are better, more well-known bouts around?????”

A second said: “That undercard is one of the worst I’ve seen especially for a fight this big.”

A third bluntly stated: “Who are most of these boxers? I like to think I know a bit about boxing but most of them I’ve never heard of.”

However, some fans were more positive, with one writing: “Good to see Moses Itauma is on it, definitely another win for him.”

And a second said: “I would love to see Kabayel vs Sanchez.”

A third wrote: “Great undercard.. Opetaia, Cordina, Kovalev, Kabayal.”

And a fourth commented: “People saying this is a terrible card, it really isn’t. Four quality fights right there. I think it’s a decent card!”

Tyson Fury is set to fight Oleksandr Usyk in May.

Tyson Fury has been told he risks being disqualified during his much-anticipated fight against Oleksandr Usyk.

Originally, the pair were due to fight in February but the bout was called off after Fury suffered a cut above the eye during a sparring session.

As a result, the fight was rescheduled to take place on May 18 at the Kingdom Arena in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Ahead of the fight, Fury has been warned by his former opponent Steve Cunningham that he could be disqualified against Usyk.

He told World Boxing News: “I believe Ngannou only looked as good as he did fighting Fury because Fury didn’t take fighting an MMA guy seriously. Ngannou does have unbelievable power, though. He landed a clean shot on Fury, who wasn’t in shape at all. I was surprised at that but not at the fact that Fury got up and outpointed him.

“I think Usyk wins by decision against Fury. Either that or Fury gets disqualified. Fury’s going to have to lean and lay all over Usyk to tire him down as he does usually. I think the referee will be alerted to this before the fight [by team Usyk] and Fury will lose points.”

It has been expected that if Fury manages to beat Usyk, a fight against fellow Brit Anthony Joshua could finally happen.

Speaking about a potential bout with Joshua, Fury previously said: “I’m sure that Oleksandr Usyk will have something to say about that given he beat him twice.

“For the actual real boxing, it’s me and Usyk who fight for the undisputed heavyweight world championship of the world. I had a s*** performance against Ngannou, that’s what a boxer should have done with him, but if he fights next year it’ll be a different game.”

Last time out, Fury had to dig deep to get the better of former UFC champion Francis Ngannou, with the boxing champion coming out on top via decision.

Fury vs Usyk takes place on May 18.

Tyson Fury has been tipped to withdraw from his upcoming fight against Oleksandr Usyk by a British former boxing star.

Fury and Usyk will do battle in a heavyweight title unification clash on May 18, with the bout taking place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

It had to be rescheduled after ‘The Gypsy King’ suffered a cut above his eye during sparring in February, meaning he was unable to fulfil the original date.

Fury has already held a press conference ahead of the event, in which he unveiled his training camp plans and confirmed that father John will be part of his preparations.

But despite his intense preparations beginning to get underway, he has been surprisingly tipped to potentially withdraw.

That’s the view of British former super-middleweight champion George Groves, who retired from professional boxing in 2018.

Groves told Betway: “I’ve said since the start – I’ll believe it [the fight] when I see it.

“I don’t think Fury has ever fancied the Usyk fight. He’s talking about having 10 more fights, but if he loses to Usyk how does that work?

“It’s a massive risk for him to fight Usyk. He’s probably really hoping that Usyk can’t take a body shot.

“[After the cut] I thought to myself, ‘I bet Fury would rather have a bit of Anthony Joshua than Usyk, because he’ll see that as an easier fight.

“That [versus Joshua] is the fight everyone really wants to see. I don’t believe if he pulls out [of the Usyk fight] he’s going to have to pay a $10 million fine.

“Usyk is probably thinking, ‘I don’t know if this guy is going to show up’, because there’s still a chance Fury pulls out.”

However, while announcing the new fight date, Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority chairman Turki Alalshikh sent a warning to both fighters about withdrawing from the bout.

He said: “If Usyk is scared, I will call for Joshua vs Tyson.

“If Tyson is scared, I will call for any fighter Usyk wants, and it’s my name on this thing. We have a guarantee from both sides, and they know it now.”

Oleksandr Usyk’s promoter has revealed who will replace Tyson Fury should he withdraw from their undisputed clash.

Oleksandr Usyk’s promoter fears Tyson Fury will withdraw from their undisputed clash and has named the replacement fighter should the British star pull out.

Fury vs. Usyk is less than a month away as the two heavyweight stars battle for undisputed status in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

They were supposed to clash in February until the self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ suffered a cut in sparring, prompting him to back out.

And Alexander Krassyuk, who looks after Usyk’s boxing career, isn’t convinced Fury will turn up to fight on May 18.

“Usyk has actually had a triple camp for this fight,” Krassyuk explained.

“He started in September for the fight to take place last December.

“We showed up to the Ngannou fight to step in the ring to announce the fight for the undisputed, but his team jumped and said he didn’t look that good, so Usyk gave him some space to prepare at his camp in Saudi Arabia.

“We were then meant to fight on Feb 17, then we were rescheduled for May.”

He added: “Tyson Fury has withdrawn four times already from this fight.

“Remember that we were looking to fight last April; he pulled out of it then, too.

“That’s why we fought Daniel Dubois. This will be the fourth camp we have had for Tyson Fury.

“I’ve not got too much confidence in the rematch happening, by the way. If Tyson Fury loses, will he have the confidence to step inside the ring again?

“Theoretically he can, but we all know what happened in the rematch with Wladimir Klitschko.”

If Fury is forced to withdraw again, then Team Usyk have an opponent lined up to take his place.

Krassyuk claims Filip Hrgovic will be drafted in to face the undefeated Ukrainian.

Hrgovic is scheduled to meet Daniel Dubois on June 1, but he will get the call up for the undisputed showdown should anything happen to the WBC title holder.

“The IBF mandatory Filip Hrgovic will be the replacement if [Fury] does it again,” Krassyuk revealed.

“He is getting ready for Daniel Dubois on June 1, but instead he will have to be ready on May 18 to replace Tyson for any reason.

“Otherwise we will lose the [IBF] title. It was one of our conditions.

“The game is about being undisputed. It’s not about money – it’s about heritage, about glory.

“Tyson Fury says he doesn’t care about that, but at the press conference he was saying, ‘Wow, the IBF, the WBO, the WBC, the WBA, the Ring Magazine, the undisputed, the lineal’, which I’ve never heard of.”

Tyson Fury is preparing to face Oleksandr Usyk in an undisputed heavyweight title fight on May 18.

Tyson Fury will be forced to pay a huge fee to Oleksandr Usyk if he withdraws from their upcoming fight at late notice.

Fury, 35, is due to face Usyk, 37, on May 18 in an undisputed heavyweight title fight in Saudi Arabia.

It was originally due to take place on February 17 but Fury was forced to withdraw from the bout after sustaining a cut above his eye during sparring.

Usyk’s promoter, Alexander Krassyuk, has expressed doubts over whether Fury will be ready for the rearranged fight and has claimed that Filip Hrgovic will be drafted in to face the undefeated Ukrainian if the ‘Gypsy King’ pulls out for a second time.

Hrgovic is scheduled to meet Daniel Dubois on June 1, but will get the call-up for the undisputed showdown should anything happen to the WBC title holder.

“Usyk has actually had a triple camp for this fight,” Krassyuk said (via GB News).

“He started in September for the fight to take place last December. We showed up to the [Francis] Ngannou fight to step in the ring to announce the fight for the undisputed, but his team jumped and said he didn’t look that good, so Usyk gave him some space to prepare at his camp in Saudi Arabia.

“We were then meant to fight on Feb 17, then we were rescheduled for May.”

He added: “Tyson Fury has withdrawn four times already from this fight.

“Remember that we were looking to fight last April; he pulled out of it then, too. That’s why we fought Daniel Dubois. This will be the fourth camp we have had for Tyson Fury.

“I’ve not got too much confidence in the rematch happening, by the way. If Tyson Fury loses, will he have the confidence to step inside the ring again? Theoretically he can, but we all know what happened in the rematch with Wladimir Klitschko.”

Should Fury pull out of the fight, he could be forced to pay a huge fee as per the terms of staging the bout in Saudi Arabia.

During an episode of The MMA Hour With Ariel Helwani in February after the first fight was postponed, Saudi royal adviser Turki Alalshikh – the man responsible for bringing world-class boxing to the Gulf state – confirmed both fighters would be required to pay their opponent a huge sum if they pulled out of the second date.

“I guarantee both of the fighters £10m if someone escapes from the fight. This is the first thing, and the second thing – I guarantee a big fight on the same night for another one,” he added.

“Make the people around the world know if someone is scared and wants to escape from this fight.

“May 18 – we will have Tyson vs Usyk.”

Bob Arum is opposed to the rule change for Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk.

A major change which was proposed for Tyson Fury vs. Oleksandr Usyk WON’T happen, according to Hall of Fame promoter Bob Arum.

The blockbuster clash between Fury and Usyk is just a few weeks away as an undisputed heavyweight champion will be crowned in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Fury’s WBC belt and Usyk’s WBA (super), IBF, WBO and The Ring Magazine world heavyweight titles will be on the line when they go to battle on May 18.

Ahead of the championship tilt, WBC president Mauricio Sulaiman suggested SIX judges for Fury vs. Usyk following an ’emergency petition’ that was sent to each sanctioning body, the fighters and the promoters.

But Arum, who promotes Fury in the United States, is opposed to the idea and effectively ruled out having six judges for the undisputed bout.

“You don’t put in something like that for the first time dealing with a major fight from the standpoint of visibility and importance,” the 92-year-old explained.

“Maybe six judges are better than three. I doubt that, but maybe. Nobody knows because it hasn’t been done. But at least you experiment with that with fights that are not as prominent.”

The Top Rank boss added: “With all due respect to my friend Mauricio – who’s a really good guy, loves the sport of boxing and has done a great job with the WBC – I wouldn’t do it for this fight. I wouldn’t say that you don’t experiment with it for another fight. I don’t believe the judging becomes better because you have six judges rather than three.”

So, barring any last-minute alteration, there will be three judges scoring Fury vs. Usyk.

The self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ went to a decision in his last fight as he controversially beat former UFC champion Francis Ngannou.

The Ukrainian, meanwhile, hasn’t fought since his stoppage victory over Daniel Dubois last summer.
