Speaking in a new Netflix documentary, Posh Spice, 49, reveals the awkward reaction to the X-rated chants from a woman sitting next to her inside the football stadium - laughing at the incident at one point - but admits the cruel taunts from football fans felt "hurtful" and "embarrassing" at the time. Victoria's name often popped up in football chants throughout the late nineties thanks to her romance with now husband David Beckham. David was playing for Manchester United and rival football fans would often take aim at Victoria in the terraces with explicit chants about the mum-of-four when visiting Old Trafford. Following David's infamous sending off during a last-16 game against Argentina in the 1998 World Cup, which England eventually lost on penalties, the dad-of-four found himself public enemy number one and even receiving death threats. The huge backlash towards the future England captain not only left David depressed but saw the chants about Victoria intensify. "Every football fan sang this song," David recalls when speaking in the upcoming Netflix series Beckham. During one of her interviews to camera, Victoria recalls watching a Manchester United game after the infamous sending off, pregnant with son Brooklyn Beckham at the time, and hearing the foul-mouthed chant. "I remember sitting down and the lady next to me turned to me and didn't know what to say, and said, 'Do you want a Polo?'" Victoria remembers during one of her interviews, after admitting she was hurt by the song. "Do I want a Polo? We did not know what to do. It felt like we were drowning."
