After five years of being the CEO for the brand Victoria Beckham, Marie Leblanc has stepped down, resulting in the running of the company returning to France. Until a new CEO of the brand is put in place, chairman Ralph Toledano will take on the role temporarily. Leblanc’s reasoning for stepping down is so that she can spend more time with her family in France. Since joining the company in 2018, she helped the brand expand into lower-priced categories, involving small leather goods and fragrances. She began her journey as a product director and a year later became Chief executive. Victoria Beckham’s comments after the decision was made, "Marie has been the most incredible partner and CEO these past five years and I am so grateful to have had such a strong, intelligent and inspiring woman by my side,". Although Marie Leblanc ironically made this decision a week after Paris Fashion week, could we question if there was a feud between her and Victoria Beckham behind closed doors?
