Victoria Beckham has said she avoids putting on make-up in front of 18-month-old Harper

Victoria Beckham may be one of the most stylish mums in London, but the fashionista has revealed she avoids putting on make-up in front of daughter Harper, in case the toddler copies her.

Speaking to the Sun, Mrs B said the 22-month tot is a 'tomboy' around her three older brothers, but would want to join in 'immediately' if she saw her mum putting on make-up.

'I can’t put on make-up when Harper’s around, because she would join me immediately. She is a tomboy towards her brothers,' she revealed.

Victoria Beckham discussed her family's life in the limelight, and keeping children Brooklyn, 14, Cruz, 10, Romeo, 8 and little Harper grounded.

She also spoke of discussing fame with her brood, when son Cruz asked: 'Why is it good to be famous, mum?'

Victoria said: 'My answer was, "When you’re famous you have a certain power to do good things."

'That is how we started talking about charity. Cruz was really sweet and said, "When people listen to what I say, I could spread some good messages".'

Victoria Beckham also spoke of the privileged life her children lead, and how, above all else, she wants them to be happy. 'The kids are under a lot of pressure to perform. I don’t want to pressure them. They should be keen and reach as much as possible. But the most important thing is they are happy,' the design star said.

'They lead a very privileged life but they don’t get everything they ask for. We always tell them how lucky they are.'

And while little Cruz recently stole the spotlight when he modelled for British label Burberry, Victoria Beckham's not convinced he'll dip his toe in the fashion world again.

'I asked if he wanted to do it and he said, "Sure, sounds fun". And he really had a lot of fun,' she said.

'Will he do it again? I don’t know. He’s more interested in school and sports right now.'

Finally, Victoria put an end to rumours she'll return to the singing stage in the future.

'We’re a musical family. The boys are in the choir and play guitar. I sing with them in the car like every mum. But I won’t sing professionally ever again.'
