Victoria Beckham Blocks Out ‘Noise’ About Her Marriage
Victoria Beckham has been in one of the most high-profile marriages in the world through her marital union with husband David Beckham. As a result of being under a constant microscope, she’s learned how to ignore the negativity.
In an interview to accompany her inclusion on the “TIME 100 Most Influential People” list, Beckham shared how she responds to her marriage being criticized.
In the TIME interview, the pop star-turned-fashion designer gave insight into how she navigates being a source of constant chatter about her marriage.
“This has been happening since I was 20, so it’s been going on a long time,” Victoria told the outlet. “I have an incredible husband who supports me enormously.”
“We’re always there for each other,” she continued. “And I learned a long time ago to really not listen to the noise. Someone’s always going to have something to say. I focus and I just don’t pay attention to it.”
Beckham also credited the recent documentaries that she and husband David had on Netflix for allowing her to tame her natural need to be in control.
“I always say that I went into the process a control freak and came out a reformed control freak, because I didn’t have that much control,” she revealed. “I learned so much from the process of the documentary. It was like a year’s intense therapy.”
