“I was very aware that usually when I shoot, I would be in control,” said the designer. “But this was pretty much about David, so I took the approach of, ‘I’m just going to be very easy here.'”
“People show up and say, ‘We like the documentary,'” she added. “Let me tell you… They were afraid to approach before.”
Victoria emerged as her own breakout star from the doc, sparking memes as the series garnered millions of viewers.
One of those memes even inspired a T-shirt that read “My dad had a Rolls-Royce,” a nod to the pair’s banter.

The term specifically refers to Victoria’s confessional in the documentaries, in which she claims that she and David come from a “very working-class family” — only for David to interrupt her and jokingly demand that she tell the truth about her upbringing.
“Be honest. In which car did your father drive you to school?” – David asks in the video. Victoria dances around the answer before admitting that her father drove a Rolls-Royce in the 80s.
The scene went viral on social media as it showed the relatable side of the high-profile power couple.
