Victoria Beckham pokes fun at her former life as a WAG with epic throwback

Victoria Beckham, formerly known as the ultimate WAG of the 2000s, has shared a nostalgic throwback in honour of England winning their first Euro 2020 match.

The Spice Girl-turned-fashion-icon is known for her signature pouty expression and hilarious sense of humour.

As a matter of fact, Victoria took on her Instagram to joke about her former WAG days.

She shared in her Instagram story a photo of herself watching her husband David Beckham at a football game while wearing a pair of mini white shorts and a red tank top with the logo England Rocks on it.

Back in the 2000s, Chery and Victoria were often spotted together cheering on their footballer hubbies (NUREMBERG, GERMANY - JUNE 15: Coleen McLoughlin (back row, center) the girlfriend of Wayne Rooney, Girls Aloud singer Cheryl Tweedy (L), the fiancee of Ashley Cole and Victoria Beckham (R), the wife of England Captain David Beckham, attend the FIFA World Cup Germany 2006 Group B match between England and Trinidad and Tobago at the Frankenstadion on June 15, 2006 in Nuremberg, Germany.

Victoria wrote on the snap: "On a hot sunny day in London today watching the football, (well not really but @davidbeckham and the boys are) wanted to contribute so decided to share."

The Insta Story came as an amusing surprise, as Victoria’s fans are used to seeing the 47-year-old fashion designer wearing the most impeccable outfits.

Her hairstyle looked dramatically different from the more high-end look she sports today, as the former Spice Girl was pictured with long hair extensions and blonde highlights.

Nowadays, it would be near-impossible to catch Posh Spice wearing a sporty and casual outfit as seen on the throwback photo.

In the Beckhams’ early years of dating and marriage, Victoria would often be spotted along with singer Cheryl, who at the time would also watch her ex-husband, footballer Ashley Cole, play on the field.

Long gone are the days where these two British popstars would seat among football fans to watch their two husbands play.

However, Victoria has continued to share blasts from the past on social media as her 29 million followers regularly get treated to funny throwback shots from the celeb.

As the businesswoman most often than not posts about her latest clothing collection and beauty brand, Victoria does also like to share some insights into her family life.

She shares four children with the 46-year-old former football player; Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper.

Victoria and David’s eldest appeared to have followed in their parents’ footsteps of settling down young.

As the owner of a successful luxurious fashion brand, Victoria is rarely seen wearing anything other than a stylish outfit (ROME, ITALY - NOVEMBER 17: David and Victoria Beckham arrive at Ciampino Airport for Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise wedding at Bracciano on November 17, 2006 in Rome, Italy.

Brooklyn, 22, recently became engaged to his partner, actress Nicola Peltz, while Romeo, 18, is rumoured to be “keen” to propose to his girlfriend, model Mia Regan.

Brooklyn has been in a relationship with the 26-year-old actress since 2020 and Romeo has been dating the 18-year-old model for two years.

While Brooklyn and Nicola have been quarantining together in the USA as a young engaged couple, the rest of the Beckham pack has made a return to their £31 million townhouse in Kensington, London.
