‘Control freak’ Victoria Beckham’s terrifying well-organised day revealed from ice baths to £2k face masks & same meal

SHE’S up early for an ice-cold wash, full-body workout and £2,000 electric face mask session – and that’s all before she tackles the school run.

A day in the life of Victoria Beckham is a terrifyingly well-organised affair.

But the mum of four is the first to admit she is a control freak and runs a tight ship.

In a revealing new interview, Victoria, 50, has told how she is on the go from the moment she wakes up, filming the sunrise and her make-up routine to use on her social media.

“I like to find good light in front of a window because I don’t want to use crazy filters,” she explained.

“The number of people who say, ‘Why are you showing one side of your face . . . ’

“I’m like, ‘Give me a break’. I don’t have a script, I’m holding the phone and trying to film myself applying make-up at the same time.”

Once she has her face on, Victoria dashes downstairs to join husband David for a weights workout with their personal trainer Bobby.

While David, 49, then pops off for an invigorating ice bath, Posh spends 30 minutes lying under her £2,000 mega Dermalux infrared light to calm and soothe her skin.

Not a moment is wasted, though, as she uses the time to meditate or strategise.

Next it is time to dispatch the youngest of the Beckham brood, Harper, 13, off to school.

Victoria is a stickler for good manners in all four of the Beckham children, explaining: “I can’t bear kids who grunt.”

She then pops on her most prized possession, a gold watch from Golden Balls.

Inscribed with “Mummy we love you”, it was given to her by David when she got her OBE for services to fashion and charity in 2017.

Later, off she heads to her fashion HQ a couple of miles from the Beckhams’ West London mansion, dressed head to toe in her trademark black.

Gone are the low-rise jeans and crop tops of her Spice Girls days — Victoria sold off her pop star wardrobe for charity years ago.

Once at her desk, she admits: “I obsess over every single detail. Everything has to have a reason for existing. It’s great when people recognise that.”

Of course, David is a fan of her luxury beauty range.

Apparently, the former England captain usually cannot stand hand creams because the strong fragrances put him off his food. But he loves his wife’s Portofino ’97 moisturiser, priced £38.

“That’s praise, let me tell you,” said Victoria.

It is hardly surprising, since the cream was named after the pair’s romantic trip to the Italian resort when they first got together in 1997.

On her entrepreneurial eldest son, Brooklyn, 25, Victoria went on to reveal how he has inherited her obsessive nature when it comes to business decisions.

“I see a lot of me in him,” she said.

She proudly boasted how hands-on Brooklyn was when it came to creating his Cloud23 hot sauce range, which launched last month.

‘I obsess over every single detail’

“Brooklyn was all over every single aspect — not just the contents, but the bottle, the lid,” said Victoria.

“It’s not easy for him but I’ve told him he has to be patient. Look how long it’s taken me.”

Unsurprisingly, mealtimes for Victoria are tightly controlled, too. She has not eaten meat since age eight. Very occasionally, she treats herself to a vodka, lime and soda cocktail, known as a Skinny B*tch.
And she never cooks.

Victoria said: “Harper says I can burn water, so it’s probably better for everyone that I don’t.”

David once revealed his wife has the same meal every day, saying: “She only eats grilled fish, steamed vegetables — she will rarely deviate from that.”

But Victoria, who has suffered from hormonal acne in the past, defended her regime, explaining: “It was because of my skin that I became very careful about what I ate.”

All those years of self-control have paid off. Speaking to The Telegraph Magazine after winning their Beauty Brand of the Year award, Victoria said she finally feels confident about her skin and has stopped stressing about what the public think of her.

She added: “Was there a time when I used to scroll through all the comments about me? Probably. But now I just don’t have the time.

“If you’d told me years ago I’d step on to a red carpet wearing only a bit of concealer and no foundation, I’d have thought you were mad — but that’s what I did last week.”

David has also won round his fiercest critics. Last year, Netflix aired the Beckham documentary, taking a look at his early years as a footballer, including when he enraged England fans by being sent off during the 1998 World Cup for kicking an Argentina player.

Victoria revealed: “After it came out, a man left a note on David’s car saying, ‘Dear David, on behalf of the British public, we’re really sorry. We loved the documentary’. That was really, really sweet.

“I got emotional when I watched the part with David and me dancing. Even Brooklyn said, ‘How many takes did you need for that?’. But nothing was rehearsed.”

The Beckhams are not the sort to complain, at least not publicly.

Victoria said: “We’re glass half full people. All of us.

“We were watching Inside Out [a children’s film featuring emotions as characters] the other day, and the kids said, ‘You’re Joy, Mum’.

“What a compliment.”
