Victoria Beckham and David Beckham recently celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary, but things could have been very different for Posh Spice. The iconic couple has been through a lot together over the last 25 years and to mark the occasion, they decided to recreate their unforgettable wedding looks.
Ever since they tied the knot in 1999, Victoria and David have only grown stronger as a couple. They have been blessed with four children - Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper. However, not many people know that Victoria was actually engaged to someone else before she met David.
Yes, you read that right - Posh and Becks almost didn't end up together. Victoria was previously engaged to an electrician named Mark Wood, who had proposed to her in 1994. Mark worked for Victoria's father's electronic supply business and they met when she was only 14 years old. The couple eventually moved in together in a beautiful Hertfordshire home worth £400,000 and got engaged just after Victoria's audition for the Spice Girls.
However, their relationship didn't last and they called off the engagement in 1996 after being together for six years. In her 2002 documentary, "Being Victoria," the fashion mogul revealed, "For some reason, we got engaged. He was an alarm engineer. If only he had stayed in the cupboard where I met him at my mom's house."
Mark didn't take this comment very well and went on to share intimate details of their sex life in the 2004 documentary, "Victoria Beckham's Secrets." This was quite surprising as he had previously spoken very fondly of Victoria, saying, "It was a very special relationship. But that part of my life is over. It's sad because we were together for a long time. But she's got what she always wanted and I'm proud of her."
Victoria also opened up about their split, saying, "It wasn't the right person for me, I wasn't enjoying myself, so that had to end. But I didn't give him the ring back either! I've still got it because it was a wicked ring. Isn't that horrible? It makes me sound really materialistic."
But fate had other plans for Victoria as she met David just a year after her split from Mark. The football legend proposed to her in 1998 and she happily said yes. "I am the happiest girl in the world today," she said in a statement at the time. "I'm with the man I know I'm going to grow old and wrinkly with."
And that's exactly what has happened. Victoria and David have been happily married for 25 years now and their love for each other only continues to grow. It's amazing to think that if things had gone differently, Victoria would have been celebrating her 30th wedding anniversary with someone else. But as they say, everything happens for a reason.
