Victoria Beckham lashed out at Chris Evans for weighing in on his live television show in the late '90s
Former Spice Girls member Victoria Beckham has called on Chris Evans to weigh in on her live television show in the late '90s.
The former Spice Girl ended up on the scales during an episode of TFI Friday in 1999, just two months after giving birth to her first child, Brooklyn.
At the time, the Virgin radio host told her: "A lot of girls want to know, because you look great again, how did you get back to your shape after birth?"
When she replied that she didn't go to the gym at all, the host asked: "Has your weight returned to normal?"
When Victoria said it was, she asked: "May I check, do you mind?", before letting her step on some scales and remark: "Eight stone is not bad at all, is No?"
Recalling the moment in an upcoming interview with Vogue Australia via The Australian, Victoria said: "I went on a TV show with Chris Evans several years ago and I had Brooklyn and lost a lot of weight after that. Happened.
“It happened to my mother after her pregnancy. It doesn't mean you have an eating disorder. And he set me on the scales to weigh me. Can you imagine doing that nowadays?"
Victoria Beckham also spoke about the media's obsession with her weight and the kind of headlines and stories she faced during her career.
