LONDON, England --

She may now be a regal Beckham, but back when she was simply known as Victoria Adams, the new-on-the-scene Spice Girl was actually courted by one of the Coreys.

And now, Corey Haim has opened up about his romance with Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham.

In an interview on British television, made available on YouTube earlier this week, Corey confirms he dated Posh.

“I absolutely did date Victoria Beckham, yes,” he tells a television interviewer.

As it turns out, the two met when Corey was in a recording studio in London.

“A car pulls up, this tiny little car, and five girls in these crazy outfits pile out of a car and are like these punk rock chicks, Sid Vicious chicks,” he explained. “[They] walk into the studio and me and Vic lock on. Sniper eyes. So I had to hang out with her. It’s my obligation as a man to do that.”

The relationship, which happened in the mid ‘90s, progressed enough that Victoria eventually brought Corey home to meet her parents.

“She brought me to her folks’ house, which is like the sacred ground — your parents home,” he recounted.

During his stay at the Adams family home, Corey said his sleep was interrupted by late night knocking from Victoria.

“She just creeped in at three in the morning and five hours earlier, we were hearing from the parents, ‘Now, don’t be sneaking around the rooms,’ just as a joke,” he said. “At three in the morning, I hear this knock and it’s Vic. I’m like ‘Uhhhh!’”

Though he wouldn’t elaborate because his girlfriend was present during the interview, Corey said Victoria has a special kissing technique.

“When she kisses she does this cool little thing… She just [has this] little ‘Grrr’ gnaw thing,” he explained. “[It felt] like a girl gnawing on your lip.”

In Victoria’s autobiography, “Learning To Fly,” she claimed she split up with Corey after he became jealous of her adoration for the British boy band, Take That. She wrote that she tossed him out at his hotel and scattered his clothes in front of the establishment.

Corey had a different take, but said Victoria’s may be more correct.

“It might have happened man… My brain wasn’t fully functioning,” he said. “I would believe it. She’s never, I don’t think, lied to me… I’m just happy to hear she didn’t cheat on me with David [Beckham].”
