Victoria Beckham has opened up about the secret to her long-lasting relationship with David Beckham as the pair mark 25 years of marriage in July.
In the world of showbiz where heightened pressures of fame can take a toll on a relationship, the couple continue to prove that true love does exist.
Speaking in a new interview, Victoria shared that she loves David more than ever before as she praised her “supportive” spouse in a chat with, American actress turned businesswoman, Gwyneth Paltrow.
Gushing over their relationship, the 50-year-old said: “I love him more now than when I first met him.

“We have grown together and I feel very thankful and grateful that I’ve done so much in my career and given so much to my children,
but it hasn’t been at the compromise of my relationship. It’s like a juggling act when you’re trying to work and be a mum and be a wife.”
The couple, who tied the knot in 1999, are parents to four children; Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19, and 12-year-old Harper. With a packed schedule including managing her two businesses, home and family commitments, Victoria said making time for one another is important amongst the chaos.
On the Goop podcast, she continued: “We like to do that (trips), we like to spend as much time together as we can. It’s important, when we’re in London as a family we make sure we’re always eating dinner together.
“Us and the children and talking about our day. It’s basic things like that which I think are really important.”
27 years into their relationship, Victoria went on to say that she and David, 49, still very much enjoy each other’s company and often work out together.
Gushing further, she continued: “I think we have so much respect for each other’s careers and passions.
“I couldn’t do what I do if I didn’t have a husband who is so supportive.
“He has supported me on so many levels and I do the same for him.
“I want to make him feel like the best version of himself and he does the same for me.”
Of what also helps their marriage stay strong, Victoria said the pair “share the same values”, have “a lot of fun together” and are on the same page when it comes to parenting.
The pair are no strangers to expressing their love for each other on social media, most recently when it was Victoria’s 50th.
Taking to his Instagram page at the time, David shared a montage of unseen pictures and videos of his spouse from over the years along with a cheeky comment.
Gushing over his “beautiful wife”, the former footballer shared: “As you head into this birthday you should look back and be proud of what you have accomplished, achieved & what you have built, Posh spice, business woman & of course marrying an England captain,” alongside a crying with laughter emoji.
He continued: “But your biggest success are your children, you guide them, love them & teach them… They love you beyond words, we all love you so much x Have a special day you deserve it all.”
David went on to say his wife was “50 and fit” and added: “I AM BEING HONEST.”
The phrase refers to the humorous viral moment from his Beckham documentary in which David encouraged Victoria to “be honest” about which car her dad drove her to school in, after she claimed she was working class.
