Watch: Victoria Beckham Pokes Fun at Husband David Beckham’s “Awful” Haircut

Victoria Beckham didn’t mince her words when it came to David Beckham’s latest look.

In fact, the Spice Girls alum couldn’t help but put the retired soccer player on blast over his new ‘do. 

“You tried to give yourself a haircut,” Victoria said in a video, shared to Instagram July 20, “and what have you done?”

David explained to a laughing Victoria that the guard fell off his clippers mid-buzzcut, as he revealed a patch of missing hair from the top of his head. 

“It’s not funny,” David told his wife of 26 years, who added while giggling, “It does not look good. I’m gonna always be honest with you. It looks terrible.” 

David further explained the accident, and revealed how his and Victoria’s youngest children Romeo Beckham, 22, Cruz Beckham, 20 and Harper Beckham, 13, reacted to the mishap.

“ITS NOT FUNNY,” David—who also shares son Brooklyn Beckham, 26, with Victoria—captioned the video. “So, this happened yesterday whilst shaving my head and as you can hear my wife didn't find it funny at all. @victoriabeckham you don't always need to BE THAT HONEST - I quote " It looks awful.”

He continued, “And yes kids have content @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham #HarperSeven.”

David’s failed buzzcut didn’t live long as he shared a selfie on his Instagram Story featuring him posing shirtless while he showcased the nearly bald look.

“Update, it’s the best I could do with the situation,” David wrote alongside a bald emoji. “@victoriabeckham still awful?”

Victoria replied, sharing the picture on her respective Instagram Story, “I’m into it.”

David and Victoria recently proved that their love has no limits—despite what kind of hairstyles they have. The duo marked over two decades of marriage on July 4 with sweet tributes.

A Posh Engagement

After dating for only a few months, David Beckham and (then) Victoria Adams got engaged in January 1998.

They Do!

In the summer of 1999, the Manchester United footballer and the Spice Girls singer exchanged vows in a castle outside of Dublin. Exclusive photos were sold to OK! Magazine for an undisclosed sum but the couple frequently shares wedding memories on their anniversaries. 

Perfect Match

Sparks flew immediately between the pair when they met. "Completely love at first sight. He told me he went home and wrote my [telephone] number on so many other things in case he lost it," Victoria shared with Elle.

Sporty & Posh

He's a world-famous soccer player. She's a member of the Spice Girls and fashion designer. Together, they always get cameras buzzing when they appear on red carpets such as the 2008 ESPY Awards. 

Spice Up Our Lives

The couple shares four children together: Brooklyn, Harper, Romeo and Cruz Beckham.

As the kids grew up in the public eye, both mom and dad always made family nights a priority, such as the premiere of the Spice Girls musical Viva Forever in December 2012.

Date Nights Done Right

Despite their busy careers, this couple always makes time for date night. Rewind to the 2014 Met Gala when the pair showed up in matching white outfits.

Couple Goals

"Happy Anniversary to an amazing wife, mummy and strong business woman," David shared in July 2017 when celebrating their 18th anniversary. 

And the Award Goes To...

From holidays and birthdays to award shows and anniversaries, these two make it a habit to celebrate life both on and off social media. "Love u so so much @davidbeckham x Thank u for making my birthday so special x The perfect day!! All 6 of us together x kisses x," Victoria shared on her birthday in 2018.

Dynamic Duo

"We always make time for each other as a couple and as a family. David and I have nothing to prove," the designer once told Grazia. "We love each other, look out for each other and are strong as both partners and parents." 

Proud Family

"We're a strong family unit. We've got strong parents," David previously told BBC Radio 4's Desert Island Discs. "We were brought up with the right values."

Fashion Forward

Back in January 2018, the couple showcased their love for fashion while attending a Louis Vuitton show as part of Paris Fashion Week.

Royal Guests

While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle received plenty of attention during their 2018 royal wedding, two famous guests also had heads turning for all the right reasons.

Making A Legacy

Watching the Beckham kids grow up over the decades has been a joy, including seeing Brooklyn join his parents in matching tailored suits at GQ's Men of the Year Awards in 2019.

Fashionable Fam

Victoria is known for her glam fashion, and brought the whole family (including daughter-in-law Nicola Peltz Beckham) to her Victoria Beckham runway show during Paris Fashion Week in 2022.

Power Couple

In October 2023, the pair attended the premiere of David's new Netflix documentary, Beckham. "I'm so proud of you ... and everything you’ve achieved," wrote Victoria on Instagram.

Ride or Die

Ever the British gentleman, David carried his wife as they left her 50th birthday celebrations on April 20, 2024. "I still can’t believe how special you made me feel on this evening, on my birthday, this entire week, and all of our magical years together! Thank you. I love you so much!" she swooned via her Instagram Story.
