Guest is correct. She does have fantastic timing.

I was a late convert to Mrs Beckham. For the first 15 or so years she was in the public eye, I thought she looked tacky and sounded tackier. As for her singing voice, I couldn't say either way because I didn't follow her hits.

The evolution of her style, the removal of the breast implants, and the way that all her children are polite and grounded is a real credit to her. It's been an almost uniquely enjoyable evolution. She's earned the space she inhabits.
