""I had Brooklyn. I moved to Manchester, which is where David was living and playing for Manchester United. And by this point, he is on the first team; he's a big star," Beckham told podcast host Alex Cooper. "And it was quite the transition for me because I was so happy to be with David, to have a baby. I felt so blessed, but I felt a bit lost as well.""
""It was really difficult because on one hand, I felt so lucky, and so blessed, and so in love, but I was struggling to find my sense of purpose, and I felt ashamed to admit that I didn't feel entirely fulfilled," Beckham said. As much as she was trying to be supportive of her husband's career, which was taking off, she was searching for her identity again, she said."
Victoria Beckham struggled to find purpose after transitioning from performing with the Spice Girls to early motherhood. She moved to Manchester after Brooklyn's birth while David Beckham's football career accelerated, leaving her feeling isolated in a flat with a baby despite feeling blessed and in love. She experienced shame and guilt for feeling unfulfilled and for wanting more beyond motherhood. A persistent sense of time passing and uncertainty about what came next pushed her to create something of her own. That drive led to the launch of her eponymous fashion brand in 2008 and ultimately returning to work.
