"I remember Geri Halliwell saying to me, 'When you get a TV, you get a TV manual. But when you have a baby there's no manual. You just got to figure that [expletive] out for yourself.'"

"That's the truth. I've always been lucky that I've got a strong family unit, not just with David and the kids but with my parents and David's parents. I feel very blessed that I have that. The kids always come first to me and David."

Just last week, during a visit to New York to promote her new Victoria Beckham Beauty line, the designer was asked about what kind of "marriage wisdom" she would like to pass to her four children, Brooklyn, 22, Romeo, 19, Cruz, 16, and Harper, ten.

She told Good Morning America's George Stephanopoulos: "Oh my goodness, marriage wisdom, you know, I don't know. We're very supportive of each other. Um, he's an incredible dad, um, and a wonderful husband, and we have a lot of fun."

Victoria continued: "We support each other in everything that we do. But it's about having fun, enjoying that person's company, I genuinely love being with him. Which is good!"

She then jokingly added: "After all these years."

Making Robin Roberts and Michael Strahan laugh, Victoria quipped: "It's a bonus!"
