The mother of four admitted it ‘used to be fun’ getting dressed up and being snapped by the paparazzi in a stylish outfit, however she admitted she no longer cares for it.
Speaking about protecting her privacy, she said: ”You have to go through those times to make you, ultimately, who you are. We’ve kind of figured out how to be quite discreet, which is just how we want to conduct our lives right now.
‘I suppose it used to be fun to go out and be chased by paparazzi walking down Bond Street – and you would dress knowing you were going to get that. I don’t want that any more.’
‘I’ve been doing this too long. I suppose I did when I was growing up but, nowadays, there’s just too much going on; too busy; too many kids to worry about. I woke up at 50, and I gave a s*** less.’
While she may be keen to step away from the spotlight, it has been reported that Victoria and David have plotted a secret multi-million pound career move to launch daughter Harper, 13, into the industry.
Harper has already made it known she wants to follow in the footsteps of her fashion designer mother and hopes to create an ‘amazing brand’ when she’s older.
And it appears her famous parents are edging her one step closer by setting up a business to funnel any future earnings for the rising star.
Discussing Harper’s upcoming appearance in her new Netflix documentary, she said: ‘It’s slightly more targeted on the entrepreneur, the designer of the brand. It’s not going to be as personal. I realise that I am a bit of a travelling circus, even when I’m at work, but this is very fashion-focused.
‘And, obviously, there’ll be elements of the kids, you know – Harper’s going to come in on Monday and do her fitting for the show.
‘So they’ll film that. But it’s really shining a light on the business, especially for America. That’s the main reason for doing this.’
Last year Victoria turned 50 and said she now doesn’t care for being in the public eye as much.
She told the magazine: ‘You have to go through those times to make you, ultimately, who you are.
‘We’ve kind of figured out how to be quite discreet, which is just how we want to conduct our lives right now.
‘I suppose it used to be fun to go out and be chased by paparazzi walking down Bond Street – and you would dress knowing you were going to get that. I don’t want that any more.
‘I’ve been doing this too long. I suppose I did when I was growing up but, nowadays, there’s just too much going on; too busy; too many kids to worry about.
‘I woke up at 50, and I gave a s**t less.’
