David Beckham shares bold new look after Victoria mocks ‘terrible’ haircut

Sir David Beckham is trailblazing a new hairstyle after accidentally razing off a chunk of his hair – and Victoria has been won round.

Posh Spice, 51, took to Instagram yesterday to show a shame-faced David covering a portion of his head which was sporting his usual close-cut head of hair.

‘What have you done? What have you done?’ Victoria asks Sir David with a teasing tone in a video she shared with her 32.9 million followers.

‘The thing of the clippers fell off my head,’ Sir David replied with a tremble in his voice as Victoria reiterated: ‘You were trying to give yourself a haircut and what have you done?’

The 50-year-old former footballer then removed his hand to show the missing chunk of hair as Victoria wheezes out laughter in the background.

‘It’s not funny,’ David said as he briefly covers it back up, but his wife of 26 years is having too much fun, joking: ‘Let me see. I mean the hours of content that the kids have got from this.’

Sir David had one last attempt defending the hairdressing disaster saying the clipper head ‘fell off’ before Victoria delivered some brutal home truths.

‘I mean, it does not look good. I’m always going to be honest with you. It looks terrible,’ she concluded.

Now, her husband how shared an update with the people on his story after committing to the buzzcut and seems to have won Victoria back around.

‘It’s the best I could do with the situation,’ he wrote along with a selfie of his new head of hair (or lack thereof). Victoria then reposted the story with the redeeming caption: ‘I’m into it!’

His previous buzzcut caused quite the public stir at the time, as he recalled in his Netflix documentary.

‘I had a hairdresser at the time called Tyler. I said to him: ‘I’m gonna cut my hair’ and he was like: “Are you sure? You really want to do that?”‘ he reminisced.

After the initial incident the comments seemed to be divided into three camps.

There were those thoroughly amused by the antics, with kenpaves writing: ‘I’m sorry I’m laughing’ while another, aimeeonvoayge, aptly quoted the famed glasses company advert by saying: ‘Should have gone to Specsavers, hilarious.’

Elsewhere, keeping up his name as a fashion influencer (lest we forget the frosted tips era or the aggressive mullet), some were ready to go all in with him – declaring that he’s the only man in Britain that could have pulled it off.

‘Gonna get the Beckham haircut first thing tomorrow,’ Jason Mamford joked.

‘We all know David Beckham if you leave it we all know half the UK kids will be rocking it next week,’ biggriff2.0 pointed out.

‘It’s David Beckham and whatever he does with his hair he’s going to look amazing anyway,’ maytegr03 echoed.

‘This is going to be a trend tomorrow,’ alexandrafaire agreed.

‘David Beckham shaved a chunk in his hair. So I shaved a chunk in my hair,’ jacquieoiya added.

Meanwhile, some genuinely tried to offer some emergency haircut tips in order to salvage the dire situation.

‘Better just buzz the rest in my experience guys hair grows back fairly fast usually he’ll be back in no time,’ breysbraxton suggested with some laughter emojis.

‘Close chave incoming!!’ Jo Jo Beckham agreed.

The British power couple – who share four children, Brooklyn, 26, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and 14-year-old Harper – are known for making bold fashion statements.

I mean, they wore bright purple to their very high-profile wedding – a look that they recently recreated to mark their 25th wedding anniversary.

It’s been a month or two of highs and lows for the Beckhams after Sir David finally received the knighthood that has been many years in the making.

At the time he said he was ‘immensely proud’ of this ‘humbling honour’.

Meanwhile, the whole family has been taut with tension as the rumours of a rift between Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz with the rest of the family rages on.

In the latest turn, it appears the three brothers have somehow unfollowed each other on Instagram, fuelling concerns of an irreparable break.
