The fashion designer will not be embracing any wrinkles
There’s nothing like a milestone birthday to get you reassessing your life. And, as Victoria Beckham faces the last year of her forties, she’s told friends she’s starting to really panic about ageing and is ready to spend whatever it takes to stay looking young. Which apparently means all kinds of lifts, supplements, collagen, laser treatments and a twice-yearly trip to an exclusive European clinic to have whatever else is on offer, with insiders tellingheat it’s costing the youth-obsessed former Spice Girl a whopping £300k a year – pennies really when you’re worth £380million…

She takes it very seriously, and is now investing in a full health screen twice a year, getting everything checked out, and then opting for the most advanced medical solutions.” But while she might look amazing, there’s no hidingyour actual age when you’re a celebrity. The source continues, “Victoria’s doing everything she can, but she struggles with the fact that everyone in the world knows how old she is. So many of her friends have admitted to shaving a few years off their official age, but Vic doesn’t have that option. She can’t turn 50 quietly.”
