In June, the couple were suddenly forced to vehemently deny speculation that they were heading for a divorce.

And Victoria Beckham has branded persistent marital rumours surrounding her husband David 'annoying and frustrating' amid her 'stressful life' in a very candid interview. 

The fashion designer, 44, also went on to reveal the real reason why she's not taking part in the Spice Girls tour this summer and ruled out any suggestion of a cameo.

Claims that Victoria and David, 43, were planning to divorce circulated on social media earlier in the summer, prompting high street bookmaker Paddy Power to suspend betting on them separating. 

Paddy Power's move came despite there having been no suggestion the couple were having any marriage difficulties. 

While rumours were fuelled once more about the state of their 19-year marriage when David was mysteriously absent from the family front cover of British VOGUE magazine. 

Talking about the rumours surrounding her marriage to David, 43, in the Guardian's Weekend magazine, Victoria said: 'It can get quite frustrating. But I leave it to my PR team. I don't get involved.'

It was revealed in November that the Spice Girls were reuniting once again for a live tour but Victoria wouldn't be joining Mel B, Geri Horner, Emma Bunton and Mel C on stage. 

Addressing why she wasn't joining her former bandmates and ruling out any chance of making a cameo, she told the publication: 'Not at all. What I do now is my passion and a full-time job. I'm excited to see it, though.

'And I'm sure when I'm there and they are on stage, there will be a part of me that feels a bit left out. Because even after all this, a part of me will always be a Spice Girl.' 

Victoria went on to discuss her hectic schedule, where she is required to be at the front of the house and also behind the scenes.

Talking about having to wear 'both hats', the mother-of-four admitted that it 'can be stressful'.  

Victoria added that living such a busy lifestyle also requires her to 'expect a lot from her body' and that she follows a disciplined healthy diet and work out, which makes her the 'happiest'. 

At the time of the divorce rumours - which seemed to involve speculation about David's faithfulness to his wife - Jo Milloy, a spokesman for Victoria, told the Daily Mail the gossip was 'absolute nonsense'.

Meanwhile, former England football captain David's spokesman, Simon Oliveira, dubbed the claims ‘embarrassing and laughable’.

'There is no statement due, no divorce, and a lot of Chinese whispers and fake social media news,' he said. 'This is all very bizarre and an embarrassing waste of time.'

He then added, bluntly, that the rumours were 'a crock of s**t'. 

Meanwhile, at the start of November, the Spice Girls confirmed that they had reunited for a six-date UK tour this summer, following months of relentless speculation.

Mel B, 43; Emma Bunton, 42; Geri Horner, 46, and Mel C, 44, took to their official Twitter and Facebook accounts to announce the highly anticipated roadshow, which is set to kick off in Manchester on June 1.

And while Victoria won't be a part of the lineup hitting the road in a tour that's expected to net them £10m each, she still took time out to release a statement on the exciting announcement.

'Being in the Spice Girls was a hugely important part of my life and I wish my girls so much love and fun as they go back on tour,' said the mother-of-four. 'I know they will put on an amazing show and the fantastic fans past and present are going to have a wonderful time!'
