'I AM healthy' insists Posh

Victoria Beckham - Celebrity News - Marie Claire

Victoria Beckham has rubbished claims she has an eating disorder, calling her critics 'irresponsible' when they 'obsess' about her weight.

The ex-Spice Girl turned designer insists she does eat healthily and has 'plenty of energy' to cope with her busy lifestyle.

Posh has been snapped at a number of parties for London Fashion Week, looking more slender than ever.

But she laughed off claims that she has a problem with her weight.

'I am fine - happy and healthy. I find it irresponsible when people obsess abut my shape and size,' she told the Mirror.

'I appreciate there are young girls and women who look at me as a role model and it is simply untrue to say I do not eat and I am unhealthy.

'I have a healthy diet, a healthy lifestyle and plenty of energy to run after my three energetic young boys and travel the world managing my fashion business.'

The fashionista has been in London to promote her latest DVB collection, which has been well received by critics and fans alike.

'The response I've had to my designs has been mind-blowing. I'm so happy. Life for me is great at the moment,' Posh added.

Victoria has returned to Los Angeles, but was mobbed by fans and paparazzi when she left Claridge's hotel in London on her way to Heathrow airport.

She was wearing a gorgeous Dolce & Gabbana spider-web dress, perhaps in preparation for Halloween?

I've read that she only eats steamed fish, edamame beans and strawberries! I don't know if that's true, but it doesn't sound very healthy to me. I know some girls are just naturally tiny, but she wasn't this skinny when she was a Spice Girl. I don't think she looks healthy!

If she was eating healthily she wouldn't be that size. I appreciate that some people are naturally skinny but she's not one of them as pictures from earlier in her career show. Her natural shape is probably a couple of sizes bigger - which would still be nice and slim anyway!! Just eat some decent food Posh!!

She does not portray a healthy body image. It is not a good look for her, she looks older than her years.

You can kid yourself, Posh, and you might even be able to kid your young and impressionable fans. But you can't kid the rest of us. If she's naturally that thin, then she has some sort of health problem, but I suspect that it's more of a psychological one.

She is obsessed by vanity. Look at the way she practiced her pout in the early days. So self concious of her image that She wants to look the best, thinner than others in front of the papparazi. It has worked negatively for her though cos she is just skin & bone - NOT attrative or sexy. Yuk....she looks like a pubescent teenager not yet developed.

She looks excessively skinny bearing in mind pictures add weight to you. Don't believe she eats well her skin tends to look spotty. She surely has enough money that she doesn't need to worry about being sooooooo skinny

She looks very scary in some of the recent photos of her at Fashion Week, more skeletal than ever. It's a shame, she's probably in denial and convincing herself that she is healthy.

As for her new dress collection, most of what I've seen I think is hideous.

Unless she puts some weight on, she is not going to age well at all. She already has a really scrawny neck/collarbone area, and the bone structure in her face makes her look malnourished.

So Posh they tell me you're now a designer! What on earth do you know about garment construction? And no sweetie that has nothing to do with the designer packaging...
You must have gone to design college, learnt how to cut, make & sew a garment from sketch to finish overnight hmm
She looks way older than her years as others have mentioned, working mum or not! But I guess she is living in the right part of the states for all that cosmetic sugery blah blah.
I (myself) will stick to designing & making clothes from a sketch- you see some of us did go to college & study for 4 years & more!!!
