After Victoria Beckham was called out by hubby David for only eating the same meal every day, she revealed all.
The 51-year-old Spice Girls singer seems to have got her own back after David, 50, hilariously told her to 'be honest' in his Netflix documentary, when she called herself working class.
Victoria now has a three-part docuseries of her own, titled Victoria Beckham, which landson the streaming service this week, and features the likes of Tom Ford, Eva Longoria, and Anna Wintour.
However, it's been a while since the former footballer shared what his wife likes to consume on a regular basis, making the bold claim that she eats only one dish and has kept it up for 25 years.

The mother-of-four and fashionista is well known for her love of keeping herself in shape, and healthy inside and out.
Now, you might have thought it was creams and gadgets keeping her looking fantastic, but David said it's actually to do with her diet.
In an interview on the River Cafe Table 4 podcast in 2022, he shared: "I get quite emotional about food and wine, when I'm eating something great I want everyone to try it.
"Unfortunately I'm married to someone that has eaten the same thing for the last 25 years."
David claimed that Victoria has eaten 'only eats grilled fish' and 'steamed vegetables' since they got together - which was back in 1997.
"She will very rarely deviate from that," he added.
I mean, it’s not a bad choice if you want to stay healthy, as fish is low in calories, as are vegetables, and also provides things like amino acids, protein, and omega-3.
But for David, he said: "The only time she's probably ever shared something that's been on my plate was actually when she was pregnant with Harper and it was the most amazing thing."
The former footballer admitted: "It was one of my favourite evenings. I can't remember what it was but I know she's not eaten it since."
However, could it all have been an exaggeration?
In an interview with The Telegraph last year, Victoria said her diet is why her skin is so good.
According to the fashion designer, she avoids certain wheats and flours and will eat wheat flour instead of cassava flour.
She also uses some expensive tools to keep her skin looking fresh, like those red-light masks.
"It was because of my skin that I became very careful about what I ate," Victoria explained, adding that acne in her 20s is what led to her being more conscious about what she was putting in her body.
"And yeah, probably I did look stern in a lot of pictures, but I was so uncomfortable," she revealed. "Was there a time when I used to scroll through all the comments about me? Probably. But now I just don’t have the time."
As for now, Victoria manages her stress 'by not taking on anything I genuinely don’t think I can do. Oh and by not cooking'.
Victoria Beckham lands on Netflix on 9 October.
