Last year, a clip from the Beckhams’ Netflix documentary went viral after David Beckham was filmed chiding his wife Victoria to “be honest” after she claimed her family was working class despite her dad driving a Rolls-Royce.
Now it appears she has gotten her own payback.
On Sunday, the former Spice Girl, 51, shared a video on Instagram of David holding his head in his hands.
“What have you done?” she asked, off-screen, while the former England football captain looked decidedly sheepish.
“The thing of the clippers fell off my head,” he responded.
Victoria then repeats her question, while already beginning to laugh.
“You tried to give yourself a haircut. What have you done?” she asks.
The 50-year-old former football reluctantly peeled his hand away from his head revealing a sizeable iron-shaped bald spot.
“It’s not funny,” David protested, shaking his head as Victoria burst out laughing.
“It does not look good,” she added, before reminding her husband what he has told her about being “honest” in the past.
“I’m going to always be honest with you, it looks terrible,” she said.
Proving he has a good sense of humor about his wife’s ribbing, David later shared the clip on his own Instagram page, with a caption directed at Victoria.
“You don’t always need to BE THAT HONEST.”
The Beckhams’ documentary, titled, Beckham, went on to win an Emmy for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series in 2024.
The director, Fisher Stevens, later said in an interview that he was “p***ed” with David for interrupting his interview with Victoria in that now-viral moment.
Beckham editor Michael Harte agreed, saying what happened “totally flipped the scene on its head,” but that it was “one of the most honest scenes” in the four-part special.
“You get a true insight into their relationship and the way they interact,” Harte said, but suggested the biggest challenge was where to include the “incredible” interaction.
David previously spoke about the incident that became a viral meme to The Hollywood Reporter, confirming Stevens was “very angry with me over that.”
