David: ‘She’s eaten the same meal for 25 years’
Posh knows what she likes
Although he’s had 25 years to get used it, David admits that he STILL finds his wife’s eating habits disappointing. While he is a huge foodie who loves trying out different meals and cuisines, sadly for him, Victoria sticks to a strict diet – and she’s not about to change.
Speaking about eating on a new podcast, David revealed, “I get quite emotional about food and wine – when I’m eating something great, I want everyone to try it. Unfortunately, I’m married to someone that has eaten the same thing for the last 25 years. Since I met her, she only eats grilled fish, steamed vegetables – she will very rarely deviate from that. The only time she’s probably ever shared something that’s been on my plate was actually when she was pregnant with Harper and it was the most amazing thing. It was one of my favourite evenings. I can’t remember what it was, but I know she’s not eaten it since.”
And while David clearly wishes his wife would be more adventurous food-wise, it’s not going to happen. VB has been very open about her diet, and while the rest of her family love their grub, she’s happy with her fish and veg.
“This is where I sound even more boring in the food department,” she recently admitted. “I like whole grain toast with salt on it. It’s that carbohydrate that makes you feel comforted and I love salt. To most restaurants, I’m probably their worst nightmare. I love some steamed vegetables, some balsamic vinegar and then to season myself. I like things to be cooked in a very simple way. I don’t like oils or butters or sauces. Even Gordon Ramsay, a very good friend of ours, says he’s never seen anybody as disciplined about the way that they eat. I’m not the most exciting eater, but I do like to have a drink with my dinner, and I can become a very good dinner guest.” ■
