Caught with her mouth full! Victoria Beckham makes a rare appearance eating as she picks up family from the airport 
Victoria Beckham satiated her hunger with an apple as she waited for her husband David and kids to arrive at Heathrow airport.
The mother-of-four was sat in her car eating the juicy fruit while her eight-year old son Cruz sat in the passenger seat with a packet of crisps.
An uncommon sight for the woman who is known for her strict eating regime and diet, it seems even Victoria, 39, can't ignore her tummy when it's rumbling.

Healthy snack: Victoria Beckham satiates her hunger with an apple as she goes to pick up David and kids from the airport

Victoria is a follower of the Alkaline diet as promoted in the book Honestly Healthy which she tweeted about earlier this year.
And she even persuaded her former bandmate, Melanie Chisholm to embark on the nutritional regime, with Sporty Spice telling Closer magazine: 'Victoria is on the alkaline diet and she swears by it for healthy eating and weight loss.
‘It’s loads of fruit vegetables and grains. I need to eat lots at the moment because of my training regime,’ said Melanie, 39, who is training for a triathalon.

In a recent New York Times Magazine interview, Victoria also talked about meal preparation at home, which is mainly done by a personal chef, who readies the food for Victoria to cook.

'Chris [the chef] comes in a couple of days a week and might make a giant lasagne so I can put it in the freezer and then do it myself,” Beckham said. 'David does the cooking.'
David, 38, was returning from Los Angeles where he had been spending time with Brookyn, 14, Romeo, 11 and two-year old Harper, hanging out on the beach and body-boarding before his boys have to go back to school.

While in the States, Beckham got his 33rd tattoo, a religious-looking image on his right-hand torso to match the Jesus and three cherub design on his left.
The new inking could very well be a tribute to his daughter as his sons are meant to be the cherubs looking after Christ in his older years, just as David hopes his kids will do when he becomes elderly.
Heading home on Saturday afternoon, the family jumped in the car, no doubt waiting for daddy David to whip up some grub upon their return.
