Years of killer heels leave Victoria Beckham in agony — and in need of an urgent operation on her bunions
Her penchant for towering heels has become her t r a d e mark . But years of wearing sixinch stilettos have taken their painful toll on Victoria Beckham — she is facing surgery to remove her bunions.
Style may be everything for Posh, but she is in such agony that friends have revealed she is being forced to put ice on her feet and do daily exercises in a desperate bid to avoid having the bunionectomy operations advised by her doctors.
The star has said the pain is affecting her perfect posture.
A friend has said: “The Beckham household is all about feet at the moment: David is having painkilling injections for bone bruising on his foot, while Victoria is in agony with her misshapen feet.
“She is suffering from shooting pain from the bunions. Normally, she kicks off her shoes in the house, but she has been out so much recently in high heels that she is really feeling it.”
Posh, 35, continues to insist she will not resort to flat shoes. “ I beyond hate ballerina flats,” she says. “I can’t walk in them. Unless they’re on a ballet dancer doing ballet, I just don’t get it. I love heels.”
To combat her agony, she has been doing exercises, such as standing on a step and lowering her weight onto one leg, and lying on her back to stretch her legs.
If Posh has the surgery, she could face at least two months out of high heels. “ Victoria calls her feet ‘ the bane of my life’, but she is worried about having the operation because she fears they will compromise her ability to wear heels and ruin her stylish look,” says her friend.
“ She puts up with the pain, but the doctor has told her she seriously needs to consider a bunionectomy or ditch the heels for a few months to let the inflammation calm down. She has not got that long to decide what to do.”
The pin-thin star, whose high-end fashion range counts supermodel Elle Macpherson among its fans, loves shoes by designers such as Christian Louboutin.

The mother of three, who uses heels to boost her modest height, is often seen tottering about on shoes in the most unsuitable locations.
