It's clear that Harper and Victoria share a very special bond – although the former Spice Girl confessed she was very different child to her daughter. The doting mum-of-four told Vogue Australia: "When I was at school, I was quite an awkward teenager; I didn't have a huge amount of friends, and looking back I recognise that I was bullied at times."

Victoria said that, as a result, she encourages Harper, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz, to always be kind to others, a value instilled in the fashion designer by her own parents.

"I would never want anyone else to feel how I was made to feel,” she explained. “So when Harper started school, I said to her: 'If you’re ever in the playground and there’s a little girl who is sitting on her own, ask her to play with you, go up and engage with her, because Mummy used to be that little girl.' I want everyone to know that no-one is on their own when Harper is around."
