‘I don't have a lot of FRIENDS'
She once admitted that she ‘doesn’t have a lot of friends’. But now Victoria Beckham has reportedly lost another one, Stella McCartney, after she is thought to have poached the fashion designer’s nanny.

The women, who each have four children, have been good friends for several years and their daughters, Harper and Reiley, are friends too.

Stella, married to Alasdhair Willis, and Victoria, married to former footballer David, reportedly had a row after Posh posted a picture of Reiley with Harper at her sixth birthday party at Buckingham Palace in 2017, going against Stella’s wishes to keep her children’s lives private.

And it seems the friends have fallen out again just three years later, with several consequences…

PUBLIC UNFOLLOWING

Vic, 45, and Stella, 48, have now unfollowed each other on Instagram. A source explained when Stella found out Posh had made her nanny a lucrative offer to jump ship, she went nuclear and the final nail in the friendship coffin was Victoria also trying to recruit a member of Stella’s design team.

SPOTTY TEENS NEED SUPPORT

We associate teenagers with being spotty, but scientists at Peking Union Medical College Hospital ranked UK teens the 8th spottiest out of 204 countries. Reported acne cases have risen since the 1990s. It seems we're either getting better at seeking help or spots are on the rise - hopefully, it's the former.
