Victoria Beckham feels she’s “earned” an easy baby this time round as her sons were such hard work.
The fashion designer and her soccer star husband David Beckham welcomed daughter Harper Seven into the world in July. They already have sons Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, nine, and six-year-old Cruz, and Victoria has found the new addition surprisingly easy to look after.
“She only wakes once a night. Listen, I've earned an easy one. Those boys - obviously I love them to bits - but they were hard work,” she laughed.
Victoria was speaking at the unveiling of her Spring/Summer 12 line at New York Fashion Week. She was either pregnant or a new mother while working on the collection but insists that didn’t impact her too much.
“I've had to develop a very strategic way of working. But Harper has also done her bit. She's so well behaved,” she gushed to British newspaper The Telegraph.
Victoria and David firmly believed they would have another boy when they discovered she was pregnant. They were initially told that was the case, with the star recalling she thought, “Yay, no penis!” when she was told Harper was a girl.
Victoria is famed for her slender figure and quickly got back in shape after the birth. She discussed the best way to drop pregnancy pounds with Gwyneth Paltow over dinner, who advised her to visit trainer Tracy Anderson’s studio. She now does that six times a week, and works out with her own fitness expert called Autumn.
“It's actually quite nice to get out of an elasticated waist and into fashionable clothes again,” Victoria laughed.
The 37-year-old star has been spotted out and about in New York City with Harper Seven, but the baby didn’t attend her show yesterday.
“It's the first time we've been separated. I just want her with me all the time. But it would have been too noisy for her at the show,” she said.
