David and Victoria Beckham Share Hilarious Moment in Backyard Garden: 'Had Lady Beckham Laughing'
David Beckham is showing off his gardening skills in a hilarious Instagram video taken by his wife, Victoria Beckham The former soccer player shared footage of his family's sprawling gardens at their home in the Cotswolds in England Victoria teased that her husband's carrots were "embarrassing" in the sweet videoDavid Beckham is giving fans an adorable glimpse into his home life with wife Victoria Beckham — and showing off his gardening skills in the process. On Saturday, June 21, the former soccer player, 50, shared some footage on Instagram of his family's sprawling gardens at their home in the Cotswolds in England — and made Victoria, 51, laugh from behind the camera as he revealed the fruits (or rather, vegetables) of his labor. "I've been waiting for a while for this," David began the lighthearted video, digging through a wooden garden box. "A carrot." "OK, let's see it," Victoria said. "I really hope it's good," the Manchester FC alum continued, preparing to harvest a carrot. David then pulled his vegetable from the ground, revealing an unusually short carrot that had split into two ends. View this post on Instagram A post shared by David Beckham (@davidbeckham) The couple immediately began to crack up, as Victoria joked, "That's so disappointing." "Oh my god, that's embarrassing," she ribbed again, as David looked at his harvest. Alongside the video, the retired soccer star wrote in the caption: "Exciting day today in my veggie garden, CARROTS 🥕 but not exactly what I expected but to be fair it had Lady Beckham laughing 😆 @victoriabeckham sorry about my carrot 🥕." In a few other videos and photos shared on Victoria's Instagram page, the couple showed off David's other harvests, including some onions, zucchini (or "courgettes," as the British couple calls them), beans and more. Finally, the fashion designer shared a photo of her husband proudly standing in front of his garden, as the sun set behind him. David has posted frequently about his newfound passion for gardening and beekeeping in recent months. In a lighthearted video shared on his Instagram account in April, Victoria filmed her husband of 25 years as he knelt in the backyard of their home to pick some white radishes and began to joke with him.

"I think the radishes might be ready," David said, wearing a gray T-shirt, khaki shorts, nude-colored socks, white sneakers and an orange beanie. "You look nice," Victoria told her husband as he picked the vegetables. "I look nice? No, I look a state," he joked back. His wife was ready with the perfect quip: "You know you're married to a fashion icon, right?" Also on Saturday, David shared some birthday wishes for his friend Prince William — just days after he was named for knighthood by King Charles on June 13. The former athlete posted a pair of throwback photos on his Instagram Stories in honor of the Prince of Wales turning 43 on June 21. "Happy Birthday Prince William x," David wrote over a 2010 image of himself and William in Johannesburg, South Africa. David followed up the post with another "happy birthday" message, a red heart emoji and a fitting sticker of a British flag — all of which he paired with a photo of himself and William shaking hands at the EE BAFTA Film Awards in February 2024. Following the announcement of his knighthood last week, David shared a photo on Instagram from a lunch with his mother, who joined him in London during what he called their first meeting "since the news" on June 16. "Mum cried when she arrived, cried during lunch and cried when I was leaving x special moment for us all ❤️," David wrote alongside an Instagram selfie. Read the original article on People

A Mumsnet user is questioning her low-paying teaching job The unsatisfied teacher is wondering why her parents didn't teach her 'the importance of going into a career with money' 'Blaming family is unfair,' a commenter replied to herA teacher, who is second-guessing her career path, wishes her parents had done a better job of teaching her about high-paying occupations. The unsatisfied educator explained on the community forum Mumsnet that it would have been beneficial to have learned 'the importance of going into a career with money' from her parents or any adult figure. 'I don't remember my parents stressing this to me. I'm a teacher and used to have an okay lifestyle, got by happily and could have vacations and a few treats,' she wrote. 'Life isn't like that now, as I'm sure it isn't for many.' 'I'm not materialistic in any way, but as I've got older it's really dawned on me the importance having money makes — and I wish I'd gone down a different path,' she admitted, contemplating a potential career shift. is now available in the Apple App Store!

Outdoor bath? Next we'll be returning to outside toilets
YOU MAY be used to seeing your neighbour mowing the lawn or hanging out the washing - but what about taking a bath? Coming hot on the heels of alfresco living rooms and kitchens comes outdoor baths and showers, which are gaining popularity in gardens across the country. People are immersing themselves in baths or enjoying showers installed on patios and even in the middle of lawns. Relaxing in the bath outdoors, surrounded by greenery and birdsong is thought to bring health benefits, leading to the term 'spa-den' - turning your garden into a wellbeing retreat. I just hope my neighbours don't turn their veg plots into a spa-den. I don't mind seeing them pottering about in shorts on hot summer days, with their hoes and trowels, but I'd rather they kept their bathroom routine inside the house. Why can't people enjoy their gardens for what they are? They should be bring a different experience to the one we get inside our homes, yet people seem to want to replicate it with outside living rooms, kitchens and now bathrooms. When I was growing up, on hot summer days, families brought out a few deckchairs and maybe a sun lounger. Some people, like my parents, had a garden bench and carried out the coffee table when we ate outside. Now, gardens are home to sofas larger than those in living rooms and with far more cushions. In place of rusty grills barbecues dragged out of the garage every summer come state-of-the-art outdoor kitchens with range cookers and special pizza ovens. So it's no surprise that the next step is to bring the bathroom outside too. But why? Jacuzzis and hot tubs are commonplace, and have been for some time, so the desire for an actual bath in the garden seems ridiculous. It's not just a hot soak - outdoor ice baths, in particular, are catching on. Ever practical, my first thought would be 'Where would you store all the ice?' I struggle to find space for anything in my chest freezer as it is. We have larger, more comfy sofas outside than in our homes. Picture: PA And I am assuming bathers do so in the buff. It's to be hoped that nobody in the street pops round to borrow a cup of sugar while you're having a garden soak or showering beside the flowerbeds. I enjoy a bath as much as the next person, but I'll take mine inside, thank you. Likewise with cooking and lounging about on the settee. To me, inside and outside should be different and offer contrasting experiences. I anticipate the next big thing will be a return to the outside lavatory. My nana had one in her back yard in Normanby near Middlesbrough. During the night she would use a ceramic chamber pot kept under her bed but otherwise went outside to the loo in a small brick outhouse. Let's face it, during a busy day we all love to close the bathroom door and relax on the loo for ten minutes. Alfresco toilets, where you could sit in the sun, or shade - behind the garage or under a car port, maybe - with the T&A, could be just the thing. I'm forgetting the bedroom - why not fetch that outdoors too? It wouldn't be too difficult to heft a mattress or two on to the lawn, along with some bedding. After dining in your outdoor kitchen and winding down in your outside bath, sleeping under the stars in your garden bed would be magical. And with your outside toilet you could have an en-suite. I've convinced myself now - this outdoor living malarkey is not such a bad idea after all.
