Victoria was his favorite member of Spice Girls, David confessed on Jimmy Fallon's show. David struck up a discussion when she attended one of his games in Manchester.

He had her phone number one hour later. He said,  “She actually got the train up that day, so she wrote her number down on her train ticket, which I still have.”

She would go to matches regularly to see him and she fancied him a lot. Things moved very quickly between the two and talked to each other more often.

Former teammate Garry Neville revealed that he frequently spoke on the phone with Victoria until one in the morning. To meet her for 20 minutes, he used to travel for hours.
