Victoria Beckham lies to her children - by telling them she is still in the Spice Girls.

The former pop singer - who is married to Real Madrid footballer David Beckham - has revealed her three sons, Brooklyn, seven, Romeo, four and one-year-old Cruz, had no idea what her job was before becoming a mother so she showed them 'Spice Girls: The Movie'.

However, Victoria - better known as Posh Spice - didn't have the heart to tell her children the band no longer existed when they asked her about the group.

She revealed in an interview with Britain's Radio 1: "I showed the kids 'Spice Girls: The Movie' the other day, because being in Spain it's all about football and all about daddy, and the kids said, 'Mummy what did you actually do?'

"So I put on the movie, and they loved it and it was on heavy rotation. Then one day I had been out to work and when I came home Romeo came running up to me and said, 'Mummy, have you been working with the Spice Girls?'

And I couldn't let him down, so I said, 'Yeah, mummy has been working with the Spice Girls'. And he said, 'Have you been driving that bus mummy?'"

Despite her white lie, Victoria has ruled out a possible Spice Girls reunion with her former bandmates, Mel C, Mel B, Emma Bunton and Geri Halliwell.

She explained: "I'm not sure that's going to happen we are all doing our own thing now. I'm not sure if I'm up for jumping around on stage any more, I don't think there will be a reunion."
