David Beckham: We Assumed We Were Having a Boy

David Beckham: We Assumed We Were Having a Boy

International soccer star David Beckham has revealed he and wife Victoria Beckham initially thought they were having a boy, but got some big news when they found out that their fourth child was going to be their first girl!

The 35-year-old told KIIS FM radio host Ryan Seacrest that he and Posh are both elated about the news - but hadn't expected it after doctors told them to expect another son.

Becks told Seacrest, "It’s something we obviously hoped for, but obviously when you have a baby, [the biggest concern is] it’s healthy and everything’s good with the mom. But when you have three boys, you just kind of assume you’re going to have another one."

The LA Galaxy hunk also talked about his future in soccer in light of his Galaxy contract having a quickly approaching expiration date. He told, "I haven’t thought about what I’m going to do - whether or not I’m going to continue to play, which I think I will because I think I can still play at the top level. I still love the game as I did when I was 21-years-old, so there’s no reason to stop yet.”

David Beckham says pregnant wife Victoria is doing “great”.

The soccer star – who already has three sons, Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, eight, and six-year-old Cruz with the fashion designer – says his 36-year-old spouse is loving every minute of her fourth pregnancy and the family can’t wait to meet their new addition this summer.

Speaking during a visit to Los Angeles Children's Hospital, he said: “She's great, she's very healthy. She's feeling good. She's in London at the moment working.

“We're very excited. It's an exciting time for the family.”

While Victoria has previously insisted she didn’t know the sex of her unborn baby, it has been claimed she is expecting a much longed-for daughter and good friend Eva Longoria is planning a pink-themed baby shower at exclusive Los Angeles haunt, the Chateau Marmont Hotel.

A source said: “They know the sex of their baby, which is helpful for Eva – she plans to fill the suite with balloons, and rumour has it that they will be pink, not blue.”

While David and Victoria have made no secret of their desire to have a daughter, their three sons have other ideas and are keen for a boy to join their clan.

Victoria has said: "I can go on the record and say, contrary to rumours, I do not know the sex of my baby. We feel so lucky and so blessed.

"We know what to do with a boy. The kids are excited about having a little brother to teach how to play soccer... But, if it's a girl, we'd be over the moon as well."

Hot Guy Of The Day: David Beckham

Hot Guy Of The Day: David Beckham

Father of three – soon to be four – David Beckham was back in action today as he hit the field for his first training session of the season with the L.A. Galaxy.

I hope David Beckham already put in for some vacation days to attend the Royal Wedding. Haha. I do wonder if there’s any truth to the rumor about the Beckhams moving back to England. I haven’t heard any confirmations or denials that he’s trying to get out of his Galaxy contract to do so.

Beckham 'counter-sued by prostitute'

David Beckham will reportedly face a lawsuit from the prostitute at the centre of accusations about his private life.

Earlier this week, Beckham's attempt to sue In Touch Weekly and escort Irma Nici for £15.5 million in damages was dismissed in court.

Following the judge's ruling that the publication's printing of allegations that Beckham had hired Nici for sex sessions did not amount to libel, Nici is now preparing to file documents claiming that the footballer's actions have amounted to harassment.

The Mirror reports that it has seen documents which state that Beckham must be subjected to "examination before an officer authorised to administer oaths" on February 24.

Nici's lawyer Paul Jensen commented: "When Mr Beckham sued my client he did so in an outrageous and terrifying way."

He added: "He may try to delay, reschedule or postpone [the deposition] - but he can’t avoid it."

David Beckham plans Valentine's surprise

David Beckham is apparently planning to surprise his wife Victoria for Valentine’s Day.

According to The Mirror, the footballer is to take a four-day break from training with Spurs to fly out to New York, where pregnant Victoria is launching her latest fashion collection.

"He has booked a candlelit restaurant in Manhattan for Monday and is planning on whisking her off to Brooklyn Bridge - the inspiration for their eldest son's name," said a source.

The Beckhams have been married for 11 years, but have reportedly not been together on Valentine's Day for the last seven.

Pregnant Posh Posing Nude For Vogue?

Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has reportedly spoken to Vogue about baring her baby bump in a photoshoot for the fashion magazine.

The singer-turned-fashion designer has been in conversation with editor-in-chief Anna Wintour about stripping off to display her fourth pregnancy, reported Star magazine.

"It's not a very Vogue thing to do, but the team can make it work and make it 'fashion'. Anna's apparently really keen on it. Everyone's expecting it to fly off the shelves. Victoria's a huge style icon," said a source.

"Although nothing's been officially signed yet, Victoria would want to be sure she's the sexiest pregnant woman to ever grace a magazine cover. It will be a huge boost to her career from a fashion point of view."

Hollywood star Demi Moore famously stripped off for an Annie Leibovitz-shot Vanity Fair cover in 1991 while seven months pregnant. The image has since been much-imitated by celebrities including Myleene Klass.

Beckhams expecting their fourth child

Victoria and David Beckham will become parents for the fourth time later this year.

A spokesperson has confirmed that Victoria is expecting another baby and revealed that the family is "naturally delighted" by the news, according to the BBC.

Despite confirming the news, the spokesperson declined to elaborate on how long Beckham has been pregnant or when the expected due date is.

The fashion designer recently admitted to the press that she is still open to the idea of having another child.

The couple have been married since 1999 and are already parents to 11 year-old Brooklyn, 8-year-old Romeo and 5 year-old Cruz, who are said to be very excited about the arrival of a new sibling.

Beckham sues mag over prostitute claim

David Beckham has announced that he plans to take legal action against the US tabloid In Touch, after it claimed that he paid alleged prostitute Irma Nici for sex.

TMZ reports that the 35-year-old LA Galaxy player is suing Nici and the magazine's publishers for $25m (£16m).

In his declaration, Beckham said that he has "never met Nici, let alone committed adultery with Nici or paid her for sex".

He added: "Irma Nici's statements have caused me and my family great anguish and emotional distress, and have adversely affected both my personal and professional life."

The original story, printed in early October, also accused the star of having a threesome and unprotected sex.

Beckham's rep told Us Weekly that the rumours were "totally ridiculous", adding: "Sadly we live in a world where a magazine can print lies and believe they can get away with it."

Beckham will be honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award

David Beckham will be honoured with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards tomorrow.

The broadcaster revealed that the award will recognise Beckham's "huge contribution to football" over the 18 years he has played since making his first-team debut for Manchester United at 17 in 1992.

Beckham has won 115 international caps - an all-time record for an English outfield player - and amassed over 450 appearances in his senior career. He also remains the only English player to score in three consecutive World Cup finals.

Having twice been a runner-up in the Fifa World Player of the Year award, the father-of-three was previously named the BBC Sports Personality of the Year in 2001.

Previous winners of the Lifetime Achievement Award include last year's recipient Seve Ballesteros, Sir Bobby Charlton in 2008 and Beckham's former manager Sir Alex Ferguson in 2001.

The BBC Sports Personality of the Year awards will be broadcast on Sunday at 7pm.

Cruise, Beckham form motorcycle club

Tom Cruise and David Beckham have reportedly set up a motorcycle club together in Los Angeles.

The two have apparently invited a host of other A-list celebrities to join them in the club for late night rides across the Hollywood Hills.

"The boys love to ride - they're out as often as they can," a source told the Daily Mirror. "At midnight they can get away with cruising around in a group and seeing the sights of LA without a zillion paparazzi chasing them around.

"They are trying to get other Hollywood actors like Orlando Bloom and Brad Pitt to join the group," the report continues. "It's a case of the more the merrier."

Both Beckham and Cruise are known to be avid motorbike enthusiasts and each owns a F131 Hellcat Combat bike.

Martina Navratilova 'released from hospital'


Martina Navratilova has been released from hospital following a serious illness she experienced during a charity climb of Mt Kilimanjaro.

The tennis pro was rushed to a Kenyan hospital last week after developing high altitude pulmonary oedema on the ascent.

"I am feeling much better and really pleased to be going home. I'd like to thank all the staff at Nairobi Hospital, who were wonderful, and really took care of me. The care I received during my three days in hospital was excellent," she said, according to the Daily Star.

"I have also been very touched by all the messages of support I have received over the past few days, and want to thank Laureus Academy Chairman Edwin Moses in particular, for making a very early morning call from Atlanta today to wish me well. It was great to chat to him, although I did joke that perhaps I have gone above and beyond the call of duty for Laureus on this occasion!"

Cheating Scandal Continues To Haunt David Beckham

 

 Cheating Scandal Continues To Haunt David Beckham

Oh boy! Remember when David Beckham got angry about some cheating allegations and SUED In Touch Magazine? Well, the magazine has decided to fight back and filed papers with the court claiming that they stand behind their allegations.

David Beckham has been having an affair with a “Los Angeles-based lingerie saleswoman and would secretly meet her at the Figueroa Hotel near Staples Center after LA Lakers basketball games” – or so they say.


Radar Online has obtained the court papers (somehow) and summed up some of its main points:

• the worker showed off several text messages from Beckham
• David was seen waiting in the lobby at the Sunset Towers Hotel one night “speaking anxiously on the phone” before leaving with a “pretty young blonde woman”.
• * At least three sets of independent sources — including “an acquaintance of Beckham” — detailed his strange behavior at two different hotels, at which he “appeared to be spending time with women who were not his wife”.
• * Beckham’s nanny saw “suggestive text messages” implying that he had an affair with Shery Shabani, the Beverly Hill mother whose children go to the same posh private school as Beckham’s three boys.

Yikes! Victoria Beckham might KNOW one of the women that David slept with? This is assuming of course that In Touch is right. It just can’t be -after all, David and Victoria are soul mates.
According to a friend, David Beckham isn’t worried about this new move.

“He is not backing down, he plans to go full throttle in this matter and this posturing, with no evidence and no facts, isn’t going to stall the inevitable.”

Can’t wait to see how this one turns out!

Of the "talk," David confessed to "On Air With Ryan Seacrest" this morning (October 27), “It was more Victoria than me. I had to walk out of the room. Because Brooklyn’s looking at me at the corner of his eye, kind of laughing. It was a serious talk and I had to get out!”

As for Brooklyn’s Halloween costume- he’s going as his dad. "He's literally gonna wear an L.A. Galaxy shirt and shorts. He's ready for that now. He's quite comfortable in soccer gear!" (Hollywood Gossip)

Beckham filmed confronting affair heckler

David Beckham has been filmed launching into a tirade against a heckler who made fun of recent allegations about his private life.

The incident occurred when a male fan of Beckham's team LA Galaxy twice shouted "Stop with the prostitutes" - referring to claims by vice girl Irma Nici that the footballer paid her for sex in 2007 - as he made his way down the players' tunnel at a recent match.

In the footage published today by the News of the World, Beckham can been seen advancing towards the man and angrily asking: "Do you want to say it again? Do you want to say it again?"

As the man attempts to convince Beckham that he was not behind the verbal attack, the 35-year-old continued: "You got a Galaxy shirt on! You got a Galaxy shirt on! Say it to my face!"

A second fan who filmed the confrontation told the paper: "It was a big shock to see David react in such a way. A real shock to everyone.

"The guy who yelled out was only young - he looked about mid-20s. He was about 6ft 2in, had blonde hair and wore a navy blue Galaxy jersey."

The supporter added: "I was very surprised David Beckham decided to turn around and approach him. He's an international superstar. I expected him to ignore the comment and keep on walking. I know his team lost, but he looked frustrated throughout the game."

Beckham has furiously denied Nici's claims ever since her story appeared in a recent edition of InTouch magazine and is believed to be suing both her and the publication for £5 million.

Posh, Becks deny split rumours

London: David Beckham and wife Victoria have dismissed rumours that their 11-year marriage is on the rocks.


Rumours that the two were splitting spread like wildfire on gossip sites such as Twitter.

According to sources, the pair were ‘absolutely livid’ about the unfounded allegations concerning the state of their marriage.

The couple issued a statement to rubbish split rumours, reports the Daily Star.

One top PR man, Frank PR executive Andrew Bloch, Tweeted: “I am hearing from a number of sources that Victoria and David Beckham are due to announce their separation in a few hours.”

“I have confirmation direct from Team Beckham that the separation rumour is ‘utter nonsense’. Very good news indeed,” he added.

A spokesman for the pair said: “These rumours are just internet nonsense.”

Of course we're not splitting

Victoria Beckham has dismissed any suggestion that she is about to split from her husband David.

Rumours that the couple were poised to break up spread across the internet last month but were denied by their representatives.

Victoria told The Mirror: "Unfortunately, you get used to ridiculous rumours and you just have to ignore them. But the thing is, when you have children, you don't want them to hear hurtful stories.

"That is why it's upsetting. Of course we are not splitting up; we are as in love, if not more in love, than ever. We are best friends. We never put pressure on each other."

She added: "It was our 11th wedding anniversary at the weekend and we celebrated it in style.

David Beckham Visits Troops In Afghanistan

British soccer ace David Beckham has risked his own safety by jetting into Afghanistan to raise the morale of troops fighting in the war-torn country.

The sports superstar left U.K. RAF airbase Brize Norton in Oxford, England on Friday and arrived in the war zone under the cover of darkness.

He will make the rounds of the British army's base in the nation's Helmand Province, and hopes to boost the soldiers' spirits with his surprise visit.

Before flying out of England, he told reporters, "I have nothing but admiration for these young men and women and it makes me very proud to be British. I've wanted to visit Afghanistan for a long time and I hope that in some way it helps remind everyone at home what an amazing job they are doing out here (sic) in very difficult conditions. I feel very humble."

Beckham named third son after Tom Cruise

Soccer star David Beckham has revealed that he named his third son Cruz after his superstar friend Tom Cruise.

The soccer ace who is married to former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham became close friends with the "Top Gun" actor in 2003 and got inspired by him so much so that he named his third kid, born in 2005, Cruz, reports thesun.co.uk.

Beckham who has two other sons, Brooklyn, 10, and six-year-old Romeo told writer Grant Wahl for his book "The Beckham Experiment": "I must admit, when Victoria and I met Tom, I remember turning around to Victoria and saying, 'Cruise is a great name, but we could spell it different.' And also, living in Spain, Cruz is spelled the way it is in Spanish. So that's why we got it."

Not only this the actor has been influential in many of Beckhams's other decisions too, including signing with the Los Angeles Galaxy and hiring the same PR firm as him.
