"Victoria Beckham has hit back at critics who have branded her miserable. The fashion designer came under fresh criticism last week when the press described her as moody and gaunt in recent pictures.  However, Victoria has insisted that she is simply exhausted from juggling being a mum-of-four, following the birth of daughter Harper Seven, and jetting between LA, London and New York for work. &amp;quot;Look, if people want to say I&amp;#039;m f***ing miserable then so be it. I&amp;#039;m really not. I have a lot on my plate. I&amp;#039;m not going to lie about it, I&amp;#039;m tired. I&amp;#039;m really tired but I&amp;#039;m also very happy with my life,&amp;quot; she told the Sunday Mirror. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m basically just like any woman who&amp;#039;s working and has lots of children - it&amp;#039;s tough. I&amp;#039;m not getting much sleep at all. Harper&amp;#039;s not sleeping that great, and I&amp;#039;ve been taking Skype business calls throughout the night too because of the collections. &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m up with the baby as all mums are, and I wouldn&amp;#039;t have it any other way. There&amp;#039;s not a team of people doing it for me. And then people want to say I look crap. Well, I&amp;#039;m a working mum, so give me a break. I&amp;#039;m tired. You can&amp;#039;t look your best all the time.&amp;quot;  Victoria continued: &amp;quot;The thing is, I get the game I&amp;#039;m in. People can read the s**t about me and believe what they want and I get it. But I don&amp;#039;t want to focus on that side of things. The glass is always half full for me. You can&amp;#039;t get hung up on what other people say.&amp;quot; She added that, although she is not against having more children, she and David have no definite plans to expand their family in the near future. Speaking of her apparent refusal to reform with the Spice Girls for the Queen&amp;#039;s Diamond Jubilee concert, she commented: &amp;quot;The thing with the Spice Girls is it was so flattering to be asked to do the Jubilee. &amp;quot;But we have lots on our plates and we are all so focused on the end of the year and Viva Forever, the musical. The Jubilee isn&amp;#039;t going to happen. But the musical is going to be \u00C2\u00ADreally great and we&amp;#039;re focusing on that.&amp;quot; "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
