He’s just revealed that they have too many children to be ‘extravagant’ in their romance with one another.
Yet David and Victoria Beckham – who have a combined estimated worth of £337million – were seen leaving The Ritz Hotel with their eldest son Brooklyn on Thursday morning in Paris.
The couple are in town for Paris Fashion Week Men’s and seemed to have splashed out around £800-per-night for their latest family stay, ahead of the Louis Vuitton show.

It conflicts with a candid new interview that David has given to ES Magazine this week, in which he reveals why he still saves the pennies.
On spending money on his fashionista wife, he said: ‘We used to be very extravagant in what we’d buy each other.
‘But we’re obviously saving the pennies now because we have so many children to be extravagant.’

‘So definitely cosmetic surgery might be okay for some people; I’m not saying it’s bad. But for me, personally, never. Never!
‘I have no interest in doing anything like that, ever. Growing old gracefully is my thing. I would never inject my face. Or my backside, obviously.’
Doubting himself about the legitimacy of bum injections, he then added: ‘I don’t know whether it’s a thing but I definitely haven’t done that.’
