David Beckham admits ‘it looks terrible’ as wife Victoria shares hair disaster

Victoria Beckham exposed a humiliating incident involving her husband’s hairdo in a video that she openly described as “terrible.”

David Beckham’s hairstyles have set the trend for most men over the years. But judging by Victoria Beckham’s recent Instagram post showing off his latest look, it doesn’t seem as though many will be following in his footsteps this time round.

What have you done, the former pop star turned renowned fashion designer, 50, asks David while posing for a photo?

She asks him the same question over and over again when he refuses to respond. The former England international football player squirms as he carefully places his hand on his head in order to avoid being caught on camera.

Then he admits, “The thing of the clippers fell off my head.” He turns his head to Victoria as she struggles to contain her laughter as she discovers the accident.

David says it’s “not funny” when he looks up at her and says it’s serious.

Do you know how many hours of content this will provide for the children? asks the mother of four. It lacks aesthetic appeal. I promise to be open and honest with you always. It appears terrible.

And it appears that all of her followers are in the same camp. I enjoy the victory laugh, one person wrote. Another phrase is “Look at the positive side, it’s summer and you can allow your head to catch sun.” Victoria is very kind and sincere.

But not everyone seemed to agree as one person said: “I always find vb a bit condescending to David.” This comes after pictures emerged of their eldest son Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham taking time out to enjoy a holiday in St Tropez.

Body language expert Judi James noticed something completely different while the couple, who have only been married for three years, were holding hands and kissing on her father’s yacht.

Brooklyn’s hand is seen being held in Nicola’s hand as they exited the yacht, and she appeared strained. In light of the conflict between his family and Brooklyn, Judi began to realize this.

In an exclusive chat with the Mirror, Judi explains: “With her distant, expressionless eye gaze and her hand either clutching Brooklyn’s arm or encased in his hand, Nicola is looking like the tragic heroine here, perhaps wanting to suggest some vulnerability and strain behind her normally cool and confident exterior.”

She continued, “This is a look that might turn most sympathetic husbands off and trigger their protective side, which is what appears to have occurred with Brooklyn here.” Brooklyn appears more secluded and dominant while his wife strolls by her dramatic, black-fur tippet and with her hand positioned on her bag to give her wedding rings an emphatic, perhaps symbolic display.

“Clutching her hand in his with his, with the wrist in a protective clasp and the back of his hand fully visible.” His attitude, which suggests he enjoys being the strong man in the relationship, appears confident and even a little upbeat in this instance. His chest has been splayed, his arms are extended, and there is a “grin on his face.”

Golden Boot winner to substitute – England’s Mead on role ‘shift’

JavaScript must be enabled in your browser to play this video.

Beth Mead, an England international, has a very different style from the one she did three years ago.

Mead, who was named the tournament’s player of the year and the Golden Boot winner, was a key part in England’s 2022 success.

Her astonishing achievements were capped off by the tournament’s six goals and five assists, the most in the series.

It won numerous awards, including being named the BBC Sports Personality of the Year and placing second in the Ballon d’Or and Uefa Player of the Year categories.

However, Mead, 30, has only scored once in the 6-1 Group D victory over Wales in Switzerland.

She has adapted to playing one of Sarina Wiegman’s “finishers,” a phrase the squad use to emphasize the importance of the substitutes.

Arsenal’s Mead told BBC Sport, “You have to be ready to step into the moment.”

You must be prepared to enter a position against Sweden that you might not want to or don’t typically play, and that’s what made me different.

I eventually started out as a number six in the middle of the field, and then I switched to number 10; I enjoyed the experience.

I enjoy playing on the pitch, and I enjoy doing what I can do for the team, but these are the things you need to be able to do as a player.

You must be willing to take risks and make the necessary adjustments for the team and the greater good.

With three goals in Switzerland, England’s substitutes advanced to the semi-finals.

More than any other country has scored four result-altering goals since Euro 2022, all in knockout competitions.

Along with Mead, it is up to him to keep adding squad depth to Wiegman.

When you realize you’re not starting and you’re playing well or whatever, “I think that’s what makes us stand out as a team,” she continued.

The mutual respect for one another, the willingness to work together to improve one another, and the desire to make each other feel like we can solve problems.
