In case you missed it, the internet went a bit mad a couple of weeks ago as rumours circulated that Victoria and David Beckham would be announcing their divorce after 19 years of marriage.

A spokesperson for the couple denied any such announcement and labelled the rumours a ‘crock of sh*t’.

“There is no statement due, no divorce, and a lot of Chinese whispers and fake social media news,” they added.

Following the split claims, Victoria even reportedly joked about the rumours and is said to have called David up while he was in America and asked: “Are you divorcing me?”

And now Victoria has spoken out about her ‘supportive husband’ David.

Speaking about her family life and balancing being a mother with being a businesswoman at the Forbes Women’s summit in New York, Victoria revealed: “I’m so lucky that I have the support of an incredible husband. He has always encouraged me to follow my dreams and passion.”

She added: "We really are equal in everything we do at home with the children. He makes it possible.”

Posh also praised David’s parenting skills, explaining how he plays his part in the children’s routine, before adding: “Like most women, I beat myself up. I’m trying most importantly to be the best mum that I can.

"But I’m also trying to be the best wife and the best professional. It is a juggling act and it’s not easy.”

Victoria recently shared an adorable snap of David and three of their children, Romeo, Cruz and Harper, on Father’s Day.

She captioned the photo: “I think they love him 😘x Truly the best daddy @davidbeckhamx missing u @brooklynbeckham x
