Victoria Beckham has revealed that Marc Jacobs had a ‘snide’ reaction to spotting her with a fake designer handbag in her early days of fame.
The fashion designer, 51, spoke candidly about a variety of topics during an appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast which was released on Wednesday.
She spoke about some of the attitudes she came up against in the fashion industry as she went through as series old pictures of herself wearing a selection of iconic outfits with host Alex Cooper.
One image showed her and husband David out shopping on Bond Street in London where she toted an eye-catching bag.
Victoria then explained: ‘This was not a Louis Vuitton handbag. This was a fake one. And Marc Jacobs who was the creative director of Louis Vuitton got in touch with me when he saw this picture.
‘And he was like ‘I’m gonna send you a real one’. This was a snide. I’m not as posh as you think! Not all the time!’

Victoria then explained on the Call Her Daddy podcast that Marc (seen together in 2008) had got in touch with her when he saw her with the fake bag
Victoria said: ‘And he was like ‘I’m gonna send you a real one’. This was a snide. I’m not as posh as you think! Not all the time!’
It comes after Victoria revealed she removed her nineties boob job in a bid to be taken seriously in the fashion world.
In her new Netflix documentary she admitted she went onto regret getting her breast implants shortly after her famous Baden-Baden WAG era.
In 2006, the world became transfixed when the wives and girlfriends of the footballers descended upon Baden-Baden, causing chaos with their outlandish antics and show-stopping outfits.
Then, Victoria – undeniably queen of the WAGs – was seen partying with the likes of Coleen Rooney, Cheryl Cole and Toni Terry and reflecting on the moment, she confessed: ‘It was fun! I had big boobs, I had big hair.’
But if she wanted to be taken more seriously in a new industry she had never before dipped her toes in, Victoria said the boobs had to go.
The fashion designer revealed her close friend and fellow designer Roland Mouret, who features in the show, was behind her move to get them removed.
Victoria told The Sun: ‘I don’t know where those boobs went, but they went. It was definitely working with Roland that did it. He’s so great and I wouldn’t have a career if it wasn’t for him.
‘It came from a need to be taken more seriously and me not knowing who I was. And so I think it was Roland that encouraged me to just be me — not feel I had to be that person. To just tone it down.

‘And I think the nice thing about it is, then, I could just show myself through my collections.’
Victoria previously denied that she had undergone plastic surgery after she suddenly transformed from her natural 34A to a 34DD overnight but came clean in 2017.
Speculation that the former Spice Girl had gone under the knife to enhance her cleavage first began in the 1990s, before her biographer Andrew Morton revealed the star visited a London clinic for breast implants following the birth of her first son, Brooklyn, in 1999.
Elsewhere in the Call Her Daddy podcast she revealed that husband David used to have to do the ‘walk of shame’ to football training after they’d sneak in date nights in the early stages of their relationship.
The mother-of-four was reflecting on her life and career when talk turned to how David was able to navigate dating her when she was one of the most famous women in the world
She recalled: ‘He fitted in so seamlessly with the other [Spice] girls. I remember being on tour, doing a show in Manchester, sneaking him into my room, and literally the following morning, David having to jump out the window and do the walk of shame!
‘He had to skip training because of the blisters on his feet – because he literally had to do the walk of shame in his clothes from the night before.’
Victoria previously revealed that she was told by her manager to keep the fact she was dating David ‘under wraps’, with the pair sneaking around and going on dates in car parks when they first struck up their romance in 1997.
She explained that she’d never set out to become a WAG, only knowing who David was from seeing him on football stickers that used to be traded in the Nineties.
‘What do I care about football?’ Victoria mused. ‘I just cared about the sticker boy.’
When they eventually went public with their romance, the pair dominated the headlines, while their marriage was notably thrust into the spotlight when David was accused of having an affair with his assistant Rebecca Loos.
‘We’ve had so much thrown at us,’ Victoria mused. ‘We were talking about it because we’ve recently celebrated our 26th wedding anniversary – and people said it wouldn’t work – 26 years!
‘We’ve always just been there together and just ridden the storm. Ridden the damn storm.’
Talk also turned to family dynamics amid ongoing tension between the couple and their eldest son.
In the chat Victoria also revealed that David used to have to do the ‘walk of shame’ to football training after they’d sneak in date nights in the early stages of their relationship (seen in 1998)
Victoria and David, 50, are currently locked in a feud with Brooklyn, 26, and his heiress wife Nicola Peltz, 30, with the family not talking in months.
There have been suggestions that Nicola is at the centre of the dispute, with reports that she encouraged Brooklyn to distance himself from his parents.
Asked by Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper how she’s been able to step back and ‘allow her children to make their own decisions,’ Victoria mused: ‘I mean, we’re such a close family.
‘You know, communication is key and we always let them know that anything they want to talk about, this is a safe forum. That’s really important. But they’ve got to go on their on their journeys themselves.’
