She said: ‘We’ve never had an enormous amount of staff, if you like. We do have nannies and we do have our parents, who have been amazing. But you do feel like you’re juggling.

‘You’re trying to be the best wife, the best mum, the best professional. We didn’t have much of a social life when the children were younger, that is just that one thing too much’

But the former singer said that as her children fly the nest, she and David ‘are in the next chapter’ and have shifted their focus.

Victoria and David were married on July 4, 1999 and share four children – Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19.

Brooklyn now lives in New York with his wife, model and actress, Nicola Peltz but the pair’s other children make regular appearances in their parent’s Instagram posts.

The youngest Beckham, Harper, 13, still lives with her parents but the fashionista explained to Nicole that she has her own friends and while the pair are very close, Victoria said that she’s very independent.

The tell-all interview comes as the former pop star graced the August cover of Vogue Australia.

The beauty showed off her incredible figure as she posed in a daring black mini dress.

Flashing a sultry look to the cameras, Victoria posed up a storm as she placed her arms above her head.

In another shot, Victoria wore an oversized white wool coat, olive bodysuit and a pair of quirky burgundy-coloured thigh-high boots.

A third image showed the former Spice Girl looking incredible in a leather Prada jacket with a high collar and a dark grey skirt.

She left her long brunette locks out and wore a natural makeup palette for the shoot.

In the accompanying interview led by Australian actress Nicole, Victoria opened up on her 25-year-long marriage to David.

‘I have a husband I very much am still in love with, possibly more than when we first met,’ she said.

And the couple proved how loved-up they still are by packing on the PDA as they soaked up the sun on their £16million superyacht in Positano, Italy on Saturday.

The couple, who celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary this year, couldn’t keep their hands off one another as they cosied up while relaxing at the stern of the boat.

Victoria looked effortlessly styling in a black sports bra and miniskirt as she wrapped her legs over David who draped a white towel around his shoulders.

The fashion mogul shielded from the sun with a baseball cap and kept cool by tying her long brunette tresses back in a neat ponytail.

The couple seemed in good spirits as David went for a swim in the ocean while Victoria sat on the steps off the boat letting the sea splash her to cool off from the hot Italian sun.

No approvals. No rewrites for “safety.” No compromises. Insiders claim several of the studio’s first projects were rejected by major networks despite strong commercial potential. One historical film is described as uncomfortably honest. A sitcom reportedly breaks every modern content rule. What’s alarming executives isn’t just the material — it’s the model. Private funding. Direct distribution. Zero reliance on studio permission. If it works, it threatens more than trends — it challenges who actually holds power in Hollywood. The question now isn’t whether they’ll go through with it. It’s whether audiences are ready for a no-permission era of storytelling…
