The three-part show, which has shot up the trends list since it was released, chronicles the life of the former Spice Girl and arguably the most famous sports WAGs (wife and girlfriends) of all time.

From her time as Posh Spice in the 1990s as part of the bestselling girls group in history, to her tabloid-obsessed relationship with footballing legend David Beckham and her ascent in the beauty and fashion world, the show is packed with fascinating moments.

With her trademark sense of humour, which earned her widespread acclaim in her husband’s documentary Beckham, this time the 51-year-old mother of four is front and centre, and baring it all.

From the makers of Beckham, which won an Emmy for Outstanding Documentary or Nonfiction Series last year, the production is directed by Nadia Hallgren. It also and provides unprecedented access into Victoria's glamorous life.

With a focus on Victoria and her team preparing for her brand’s biggest ever show at Paris Fashion Week (PFW), what enhances the show's appeal is how it transitions to all of her greatest milestones.

During a confessional-like setting, she addresses them all head-on, from her childhood struggles, which include being bullied and body-shamed, to her eating disorder, her tumultuous relationship with the media and the loss of her self-identity when the Spice Girls split up.

She also speaks about her pursuit of perfection, which led to her business empire almost crumbling, as well as how the paparazzi’s obsession wrecked her mental health and self-image.
