Victoria Beckham actually made it onto her feet when England scored on Wednesday night World Cup viewers couldn’t help but notice that Victoria Beckham seemed a lot more engrossed during Wednesday’s England match than she had at previous games. Throughout the tournament, Victoria and her husband, football legend Sir David Beckham, have been pictured watching England’s games with (most of) their children. However, last week, the former Spice Girls star inadvertently caused a viral moment when she was seen looking typically stoic, while the rest of the Beckham family celebrated England’s victory against Norway. It even reached a point where Sir David himself felt compelled to say something, joking on Instagram: “She was celebrating inside I promise. Her reactions were slightly slower than mine.” As a result, it definitely didn’t go unnoticed when Victoria was seen jumping to her feet and joining in with Sir David and their son, Romeo, when Anthony Gordon scored for England during Wednesday’s match against Argentina.

Clearly Victoria Beckham celebrating a goal is some sort of portend of doom for England… she simply must return to sullen indifference if football is any chance of coming home #ENGARG#FIFAWorldCuppic.twitter.com/hOTDGAk0L2 — Evan Morgan Grahame (@Evan_M_G) July 15, 2026 Back in 2019, Victoria claimed that “not smiling publicly” was a type of “armour” that she was prone to hiding behind, which she elaborated on even more in her self-titled Netflix documentary last year. “I’ve looked miserable for all these years because when we stand on the red carpet, [David] has always gone on the left,” she explained to viewers. She added: “Now I didn’t realise that when I smile – which I do! – I smile from the left, because if I smile from the right, I look unwell. So, consequently I’m smiling on the inside – but no one ever sees it. So, that’s why I look so moody.” While England’s squad is now out of the World Cup, they do have one more game left, going head-to-head with France later this week to determine who has finished in third place.
