Remember when it looked like David Beckham might be joint the really bushy beard club? Yeah well those days are over.

Chatting to James Corden on The Late Late Show on Monday night, the former footballer revealed it was his wife, Victoria Beckham, who wasn't so keen on his new look.

"I was in Miami and Victoria actually saw the picture and was like, "There's no way I'm kissing you unless you shave that off,'' he explained.

"I left it for a day, and I was was like, "You know what, I'm going to have to do it."

But little cutie Harper loved her Dad's beard, no doubt hoping she could one day plait and decorate it with scrunchies.

"The kids loved it actually, my little girl would just sit there and mess around with it. That was the end of it," he added.
