Victoria Beckham in Need of Urgent Operation for Removal of Bunions

Victoria Beckham has professed her love for high heels on so many occasions that she had become like the poster child for a certain type of shoes, the woman who wouldn’t be caught dead in flats or ballerina pumps. It turns out her longtime commitment to stilettos has finally taken a toll on her feet, with friends telling the Daily Mail that she’s now in incredible pain and in need of urgent operation to have her bunions removed.

Sources close to the star reveal for the publication that she is now in a lot of pain and doing her best putting off the moment when surgery is the only option. On one hand, the pain is at times more than she can take – years of wearing nothing but the most ridiculously high shoes have contributed to how severe it is – but, on the other, she doesn’t want to see a doctor lest they told her she stopped wearing her favorite time of footwear, spies claim.

“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,” the unnamed but reportedly reliable source says for the Mail.

As the tab also points out, Victoria Beckham often expressed her hatred towards anything with a flat sole, saying she was like born to wear only heels. The ballerina pumps that have been all the rage for the past couple of years are “ridiculous” for Mrs. Beckham, for instance, who once said they only look good on a ballerina on stage. At one point, the star even told the media that the reason she did not like to work out was because she could not go to the gym in high-heel shoes and had to wear snickers.

Health experts constantly issue warnings on the dangers of killer heels, as the type of shoes Victoria is so fond of is called. Just the other day, though, they also stressed that footwear at the opposite pole is just as dangerous – that means, ballerina pumps and Uggs.
