I was on the phone to Geri this morning about something completely different and we even laughed about it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;She just left and we had no idea until she just didn&#8217;t turn up. We can laugh about it now but at the time we were like, &#8216;OK.'&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Victoria ultimately decided to leave the group herself following the birth of her son Brooklyn in 1999.<\/p>\n<p>\nShe shared: &#8220;I met David when I was 22, I was pregnant when I was 24. I went on tour when I was pregnant. I remember being in Miami in August, it is hot. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I was in a PVC catsuit, I was pregnant, it was an ampitheatre. I had a bucket on the side of the stage and I had to keep running off stage, I had terrible morning sickness. I was so sick with Brooklyn. <\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I remember saying to the tour manager, I can&#8217;t do it anymore and he said, you&#8217;ve gotta do it, there&#8217;s only a 103 more shows to go. After those shows finished, I had Brooklyn.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nDespite this, Victoria admitted that she initially struggled to adjust to life as a mum, having spent years touring the world.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe designer confessed that she found it &#8220;tough&#8221; during her early days of motherhood.<\/p>\n<p>\nVictoria &#8211; who married David Beckham in 1999 &#8211; said: &#8220;I moved to Manchester and David is playing for Manchester United. It was quite the transition for me. I was so happy to be with David, have a baby.<\/p>\n<p>\n&#8220;I felt so blessed but I felt a bit lost as well. To go from travelling the world, being on stage with your best friends to all of a sudden being in a flat with a baby, it was tough.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- Pagination --><\/p>\n<p><!-- playbuzz --><br \/>\n<!-- end playbuzz--><\/p>\n<p><!-- \n\n<div data-cn-project=\"femalefirst\">\n    \n<\/div>\n\n --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n<!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<p>    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><br \/>\n    <!-- Outbrain { date: 2018\/06\/08 } --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.femalefirst.co.uk\/celebrity\/victoria-beckham-know-geri-horner-planned-quit-spice-girls-1431809.html?f=rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>23 October 2025 Victoria Beckham had &#8220;no idea&#8221; Geri Horner planned to quit the Spice Girls in 1998.
