Victoria Beckham Netflix series release date revealed amid Brooklyn feud

The release date for Victoria Beckham’s Netflix series has been revealed.

The much-anticipated documentary series will drop on October 9, and camera crews will follow the fashion designer’s day-to-day life as she navigates the running of her eponymous beauty and fashion brands.

Victoria’s documentary will be directed by Nadia Hallgren, who directed Michelle Obama’s four-time Emmy-nominated Becoming documentary.

According to David, the doc will look back at Victoria’s 30-year career, first as a pop star during her tenure in the Spice Girls, then as a fashion designer.

“It wasn't the easiest thing to get her to agree to, but in my opinion she was the star of [my documentary],” David told NBC’s Today show this January.

“So I just thought this is the opportunity, because she's been working on our brand for the last 18 years, and she's unbelievably hard working, and no one gets to see that.

“So I convinced her to actually let people see what she does every day and what goes into her business. She's a very clever and hard-working lady, so I want people to see that.”

The big question, though is whether Brooklyn Peltz Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham will feature in the series, as the pair are currently in a heavily reported feud with Posh and Becks.

Victoria previously confirmed a “little bit” of her family life has been filmed.

“[Netflix] have filmed a little bit of David and the children because they’re such a huge part of everything,” the mother of four told Bloomberg, teasing that David’s sections “might end up on the cutting-room floor.”

It’s been widely reported Brooklyn and Nicola won’t feature — but that doesn’t seem to be personal.

“The children hardly feature — it’s simply not a case of Brooklyn and Nicola being cut, as they weren’t in it to start with,” a source told The Sun in July.

“This is very much a project focusing on Victoria’s [transition] from pop star to businesswoman and designer.”

True to this, the log line of the documentary reads: “Her Posh Spice days may be behind her, but today Beckham is on a journey to build a fashion empire — and now, fans will be able to see the story behind it all.”
