Victoria Beckham is now at the top of the UK and Ireland iTunes chart, a feat she hasn’t accomplished in 15 years. Sitting at the No. 1 spot is her song, “Not Such an Innocent Girl,” which peaked at No. 6 on the UK singles chart in 2001.
Hello Magazine confirmed that the song shot up the charts following a viral campaign online to add a plot twist to the ongoing scandal.
Fans reacted ecstatically to the unexpected music resurgence, with some arguing that she needs a win amid the drama that has recently plagued her family.
“Absolutely brilliant resurgence for Victoria – let’s keep the momentum!” One fan wrote on X. “We aren’t letting people bully her anymore. She deserves that number 1,” another added.
Someone else noted that Victoria “deserves love and respect,” while another pointed out that the 51-year-old fashion designer was still benefiting from the family drama while tagging Brooklyn’s actions as “silliness.”
“Brooklyn is so funny. Lol. So many layers to his silliness. What could have been his end goal? Especially as your wife and your family are not even saints,” the fan wrote.
Meanwhile, others sarcastically applauded Brooklyn for “accidentally jumpstarting” his mother’s career.
Why Brooklyn Beckham Wants ‘Nothing’ To Do With His Parents

Victoria’s music resurgence follows a series of claims Beckham made on his Instagram stories a few days ago.
The 26-year-old photographer didn’t hold back as he accused his parents of constantly attempting to control the narrative about their family while undermining his marriage to Nicola Peltz.
Brooklyn made it clear that amid it all, he was ready to cut ties with his family, as he was tired of the “inauthentic” relationships they had fostered over the years.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled, I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life. For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family,” he wrote, per The Blast.
He further alleged that his mother had attempted to sabotage his wedding by stepping down from her role as fashion designer for Peltz’s wedding dress. This forced his wife to hurriedly look for an alternative dress at the “eleventh hour.”
He also claimed that Victoria and David had tried to pressure him into giving up the rights to his legal name ahead of the wedding. And when he refused to do so, it affected their “payday.”
“My mum went so far as to call me 'evil' because Nicola and I chose to include my Nanny Sandra and Peltz's Naunni at our table because they both didn't have their husbands,” he added.
What David Beckham Said About Social Media Following His Son’s Outbursts

Following Brooklyn’s explosive social media rants, David shared his honest opinion about the dangers of social media during an appearance on “Squawk Box.”
“I have always spoken about social media and the power of social media. For the good and for the bad. The bad we've talked about with what kids can access these days, it can be dangerous. But what I have found personally, especially with my kids as well, use it for the right reasons,” he said.
David further noted how he uses his platform to raise awareness about UNICEF and advocate for the well-being of children worldwide.
Meanwhile, he noted that as much as he has tried to educate his children about the dangers of social media, they have made mistakes, as The Blast reported.
Victoria Beckham Returned To Social Media Amid Firestorm Ignited By Brooklyn’s Posts

While David spoke openly about the dynamics of the use of social media, his wife broke her social media hiatus to send a heartwarming birthday wish to her former Spice Girl bandmate, Emma Bunton.
According to The Blast, she shared a throwback picture of herself and Bunton and captioned it, “Happy Birthday… I love you so much!”
She also shared footage of Bunton’s performance in the music video for the hit Spice Girl song, “Say You’ll be There.”
Brooklyn Beckham Reportedly Holds Control Over Damaging Footage Of His Mother

While Victoria is yet to publicly acknowledge her son’s accusations, reports claim Brooklyn has an edge over her, as he has access to some footage that could put her in a negative light with the public.
As The Blast reported, the fashion designer allegedly danced “inappropriately” with her son during his wedding reception in Florida, and Brooklyn reportedly has exclusive ownership of the video.
Sources claim that if Brooklyn releases the footage, it may validate some of his claims. However, it would also potentially ignite another firestorm while forcing him to relive the uncomfortable moment.
