In this episode from behind the paywall, Chelsea and Cinemile co-host Cathy Cullen break down the high-profile romance of Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham and David Beckham. Before Brooklyn Beckham’s wedding drama, there were the sprawling memoirs that shaped his parents' mythology. Get the juicy details on Victoria’s grudge against Geri “Ginger Spice” Halliwell, David’s cheating scandal, and the recurring family pattern of sons estranged from their fathers. Plus, a revealing look at how ambition and image control have shaped the Beckham brand for better and for worse.
