SHOCK! Victoria Beckham: I was on the dole

Victoria Beckham was in the Spice Girls

Victoria Beckham admits she received Jobseeker's Allowance when she was out of work.

‘I was on the dole once and I remember what it’s like to watch how you spend your money,’ she recalls.

‘I know everything that goes in and out of our accounts.

'I’d like to think I’m a good businesswoman, I’m learning a lot along the way.’

But Victoria, 34, reckons it’s her husband David, 33, who loves to splash out.

‘David definitely spends more money than I do,’ she tells The Sun.

‘I don’t really go shopping anymore – apart from the flea market I go to every Sunday.

'You can get some amazing vintage stuff there. That’s often where I get inspiration for my designs.’
