David Beckham has talked about the possibility of having plastic surgery in a new revealing interview. The retired footballer, 42, has said that while he isn’t against people going under the knife, he is happier to "grow old gracefully". Speakinig to Evening Standard about his views on cosmetic procedures, he said: "Cosmetic surgery might be OK for some people, I’m not saying it’s bad. But for me, personally, never. Never!" The dad-of-four added: "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."

David Beckham was asked if he had plastic surgery after fans saw this photo of him at LFW

This isn’t the first time that David has shared his opinions on Botox. Last September during London Fashion Week, he sparked rumours when he photographed at wife Victoria Beckham's fashion show with his 18-year-old son Brooklyn Beckham and Vogue editor Edward Enninful. After Vogue shared the photo on their official Instagram account, one user commented on the snap, saying: "Botox looks good on David!" However, the sportsman quickly set the record straight. "I don’t agree with Botox miss@stasdoeshair but I'll take it as a compliment," he replied.

While David has denied any plastic surgery, Victoria, 43, has spoken openly about procedures she has had in the past. Last year, she wrote an open letter to her 18-year-old self and addressed her breast augmentation surgery. "I would probably say, don't mess with your boobs," she wrote. "All those years I denied it – stupid. A sign of insecurity. Just celebrate what you've got."
