![VICTORIA'S MILESTONE MOMENT](https://cdn.magzter.com/1583505918/1712638648/articles/vnnENCsV41712646097253/VICTORIAS-MILESTONE-MOMENT.jpg)
Victoria Beckham once said, “I was never a natural. I got there in the end because I did believe that if you work hard enough, then you can achieve a lot.”
Pop icon, fashion designer, OBE, original WAG, super mum and devoted wife to one of the world’s sexiest men… as she prepares to mark her 50th birthday on 17 April, this is one woman who can look back at her life knowing she has done just that in her first half century.
With rumours that Victoria may be planning a star-studded party to mark her milestone birthday, one thing is for certain – whether she chooses to go glam or just kick off those famous heels and relax at home on either side of the pond, her beloved family will be at the heart of her celebrations.
Husband David, 48, and sons Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19, and 12-year-old daughter Harper are at the centre of Victoria’s world. And the young stage school pupil, who dreamt of one day becoming a dancer, keeps family close and her work focus strong, flying between her main residence in London, beauty offices in New York and her second home in Florida, where David co-owns soccer team Inter Miami FC.
Victoria Caroline Adams was brought up in Goff’s Oak, Hertfordshire, with parents Jackie and Tony and her younger siblings Louise and Christian. The family owned a successful electrical wholesale company and were comfortably off, but it was instilled in Victoria that she had to work for success.
