Victoria Beckham recalls cruel nicknames after being told to weigh herself on TV

Victoria Beckham has criticised Chris Evans for weighing her on TV shortly after she gave birth to her first child.

The former Spice Girl recalled an appearance on Chris’s Channel 4 series TFI Friday in 1999, where she was asked if her weight was “back to normal” after giving birth to her son, Brooklyn Beckham.

Victoria has now spoken about the incident in an upcoming edition of Vogue Australia.

The mum-of-four claimed that Chris presented her with a set of scales and forced her to weigh herself on live television to make sure she was telling the truth about her weight.

She also confessed that throughout her fame, she’d been branded several horrible nicknames, including “Porky Posh” and “Skeletal Posh”.

The fashion designer revealed: “I went on a TV show with Chris Evans many years ago and I’d just had Brooklyn and lost a lot of weight after.

“It happened to my mum after her pregnancies. It doesn’t mean you have an eating disorder.

"And he made me stand on the scales to be weighed. Can you imagine doing that nowadays?”

The former Spice Girl talked about the media obsession there was with her body shape after she and David Beckham welcomed their firstborn.

She previously confessed: “After I had Brooklyn, there was a picture on the front page of a newspaper pointing to every single part of my body where I had to focus on losing the weight from.”

Victoria has come under fire recently from a famous Spanish chef for causing him grief at a celebrity wedding with her “complicated” dinner demands.

Dani Garcia claimed the she had “changed the whole menu” after former Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos tied the knot with his wife.

Dani revealed on June 4 on Spanish national TV: “It was very strange. Victoria Beckham changed the whole menu. It was very sad because when you make such an effort, not just me and my team but the bride and groom and everyone else to create a unique menu.

“Hers was totally different and just based around vegetables.”
