The Spice Girls dolls were released by Galoob Toys from 1997 to 1999 and sold over 11 million units, making them the best-selling celebrity dolls of all time.

Clearly digging into his wife’s Spice Girls memorabilia, David set up the hilarious setting for Elf, with ‘Victoria’ and the toy surrounded by pizza and a laptop.

The Elf on the Shelf: A Christmas Tradition is based on a 2005 children’s picture book, written by Carol Aebersold and her daughter Chanda Bell. 

The set-up was for daughter Harper, nine. The Beckhams are also parents to Brooklyn, 21, Romeo, 18, and Cruz, 15.
