Victoria Beckham admits it was 'love at first sight' with David as she reveals the 'secret sauce' to 20-year marriage is always putting the children first

Victoria Beckham discussed her family life, her 20-year marriage to husband David and her new beauty range during an interview on the Today show on Tuesday.

The designer, 45, was quizzed by Hoda Kotb about the 'secret sauce' that has kept her and the former footballer together for so long.

Admitting they always put their four children first, she said: 'The kids are our priority, everything we do revolves around the children. We both work really hard, we love what we do professionally.

'We support each other, we're very lucky to have found each other and lucky that we're growing together.'

The pair tied the knot in July 1999 and have children Brooklyn, 20, Romeo, 17, Cruz, 14, and Harper, eight, together.

Reminiscing about their first encounter two years prior to their wedding, Victoria admitted: 'It was love at first sight.' 

Quizzed about how they make their family unit work despite their busy schedules, the Spice Girls star said 'communication is key'.

'We're very present in the kids' lives. We love our family, everything we do revolves around them', she explained.

'I think it's just being focused, working hard, having a great support team around us. And both of our parents help out with the kids.' 

The busy mother-of-four has just launched her first make-up brand, Victoria Beckham Beauty, and says she took advice from Diane Von Furstenberg about never feeling guilty juggling family life with work,  

She said: 'You feel guilty when you're a working mum. I'm sure there are so many mums watching this right now who feel torn.

'You want to be the best professional, follow your dreams but you also want to be the best mum. Diane said to me, don't feel guilty, it's ageing!'

She said of her relationship with David: 'We support each other, we're very lucky to have found each other and lucky that we're growing together' (pictured in 1999)
'Whatever they do next, they will be brilliant': Victoria quashed hopes she would be reprising her Posh Spice alter-ego for a future Spice Girls tour

During her chat with Hoda, Victoria cracked a joke about the fact she never smiles, whispering confidentially to the host, 'please don't tell anyone I did!'.

'I smile on the inside', Victoria insisted. 'I'm so lucky, I'm so blessed, I love what I do, that I can empower women through fashion or beauty, make them feel like the best version of themselves. So I am smiling inside and outside!'

She was also thrown by a question about whether the Spice Girls would be 'reuniting' - ie whether she would be completing them as a five-piece for their rumoured next tour in 2020.

'Oooh, OK, got me there! The girls did a very, very successful tour. I was so proud of them, I still speak to all the girls. Whatever they do next, they will be brilliant,' she said, quashing all hopes of a Posh Spice revival. 

The purpose of the interview was to discuss her new Victoria Beckham Beauty venture.

'We launched Victoria Beckham beauty about a month ago now, which has been a dream come true for me', she said. 

'We're going direct to consumer so the only place you can actually buy the make-up is on victoriabeckhambeauty.com. [There's] a strong focus on the best formulas, but safe formulas as well. 

'We say this is clean beauty - there's a big focus on not putting dangerous chemicals in the products. Sustainability is also a key message for us with regards to our packaging and offering it at an affordable luxury price point.' 

She added: 'We support each other, we're very lucky to have found each other and lucky that we're growing together'

She continued: 'The other focus with this brand is inclusivity so we have six nude lip liner shades, something that works for every skin tone!'

The star was dressed in her own eponymous fashion label for her interview, embracing the colour-blocking trend. 

She sported a lilac knit teamed with a contrasting bright red skirt, adding a preppy twist to the look with a smart shirt featuring coordinating scarlet stitching.
