    Victoria Beckham has insisted it is "not her fault" that her children are "nepo babies"

    The 51-year-old fashion designer and her soccer star husband Sir David Beckham, 50, have children Brooklyn, 26, Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14 and Victoria has defended her children for pursuing careers in the entertainment industry


    Brooklyn has gone through various careers, including a wannabe photographer, and now has his own hot sauce company.

    Romeo is carving out a modelling career, Cruz is an aspiring musician and Victoria believes Harper is "either going to be a beauty mogul or she's going to be a stand-up".

    She told The Sun: "Cruz has got music coming out soon. He's spent the last 10 years learning his craft. He taught himself to play about seven instruments. He writes his own songs, he's put a band together. He's properly done it from the grass roots up. He hasn't just come in and sung his songs, or demanded anything. I mean I can't really give him any advice - the industry has changed so much.

    "You've got to start small and build it up. And that's exactly what he's doing, playing tiny venues, no fuss, doing his thing. I am so proud of him.

    "But he is a nepo. I mean, I feel sorry for these kids that are considered nepo-babies. The kids are simply the kids of their parents. It's not their fault. Give them a chance. What matters is that people are good and kind. It is fine to be ambitious, but it is more important to be kind. Let the music speak for itself before you judge."

    Victoria also revealed she struggled with her identity after the Spice Girls first broke up and admitted that was evident in how she looked.

    She said: "I think that I've spent such a long time after the Spice Girls searching for my purpose and I didn't know what it was, so I suppose that's why I dressed in that way. There were a lot of hair extensions, tight tops and fake tan, although, I still do fake tan.

    "I'm not going to lie, it was probably to get attention, because I was searching for my identity."
