Summary

Discover the truth behind the headlines in Victoria Beckham's fascinating memoir, Learning to Fly.

'Juicy and compelling' Heat

'Extraordinary... compelling and honest, devastatingly frank... like a rummage through a close friend's private diary' Daily Mail

'The sensational autobiography of one of the most photographed and talked-about women in the world' Mail on Sunday

From the time she saw the movie Fame, Victoria wanted to be a star. A line from the theme song stayed with her - 'I'm gonna live for ever, I'm gonna learn how to fly.' With this amazing book she gives us the chance to fly alongside her on her journey from lonely teenager to international star.

This is the real Victoria Beckham, telling us what it's like to be part of the most watched couple in Britain. Standing up for herself, David and Brooklyn, and setting the record straight about controversies that have surrounded her. She reveals the truth behind the beginnings of the Spice Girls, her wedding, her health and the terrifying kidnap and death threats. And what it took for little Victoria Adams to become the star she is today, and why she wanted it so much.

Incredibly frank and told with coruscating humour, Victoria Beckham's autobiography Learning to Fly is more compelling than any novel.
