LONDON:

Victoria Beckham lies to her children — by telling them she is still in the Spice Girls.

The former pop singer, who is married to footballer David Beckham, has revealed her three sons, Brooklyn, seven, Romeo, four and one-year-old Cruz, had no idea what her job was before becoming a mother so she showed them Spice Girls: The Movie.

However, Victoria, better known as Posh Spice, didn’t have the heart to tell her children the band no longer existed when they asked her about the group.

She revealed in an interview with Britain’s Radio 1: “I showed the kids Spice Girls: The Movie the other day, because being in Spain it’s all about football and all about daddy, and the kids said, ‘Mummy what did you actually do?’ So I put on the movie, and they loved it and it was on heavy rotation. Then one day I had been out to work and when I came home Romeo came running up to me and said, ‘Mummy, have you been working with the Spice Girls?’ And I couldn’t let him down, so I said, ‘Yeah, mummy has been working with the Spice Girls’. And he said, ‘Have you been driving that bus mummy?’”

Despite her white lie, Victoria has ruled out a possible Spice Girls reunion. She explained: “I’m not sure th-at’s going to happen, we are all doing our own thing now. I’m not sure if I’m up for jumping around on stage any more, I don’t think there will be a reunion.” — Agencies
