Victoria Beckham insists she was 'never pushy' and 'wanted to be the best mum'

Victoria Beckham has addressed her estranged son Brooklyn's explosive claims in a new interview. Back in January, the aspiring chef, 27, announced his disassociation from his famous family, as he declared he was no longer part of 'Brand Beckham' and claimed his parents and his siblings Romeo, 23, Cruz, 21, and Harper, 14, are 'performative'. Appearing on Emma Grede's podcast Aspire this week, fashion designer Victoria, 52, said building their £500million empire known as 'Brand Beckham' was 'never their intention' and insisted she wasn't a 'pushy parent'. During the interview, Dragon Den's entrepreneur Emma asked Victoria about how she decides what 'remains personal' and what is part of Brand Beckham. The line of questioning appeared to allude to Brooklyn's scathing six-page statement, where he claimed he had been 'controlled by a family that values public promotion above all else' with 'performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships'.
