Updated: 7/21/99

The wedding of Victoria Adams and David Beckham is one that many called the wedding of the year. This historical wedding took place indoors on July 4th 1999 at Luttrellstown Castle which is on the outskirts of Dublin, Ireland. Victoria's wedding dress was designed by Vera Wang. It was low cut to attract attention to the cleavage and showed off a thin waist. Here is a picture of Victoria in it. The rights to any sort of media of the wedding were purchased by OK! Magazine which paid £1 million for them! Victoria's bridesmaid was her sister Louise. The security at the wedding was extremely tight. There was even a ring of steel around the grounds of the 550-acre castle, and a 1 kilometer no fly zone! Only 29 close family members & friends, including the other 3 Spice Girls, viewed the actual wedding, and there were 236 guests for the post party.

This week's OK! Magazine has additional pictures from Victoria's wedding.

Thursday, July 15, 1999

• Remember that whole drama about Victoria and David rumored to not be able to marry in Dublin because they did not meet the requirements? Well the final truth about the matter finally comes out. It turns out that the couple did fail to give the required three months notice of their marriage but had a special license made, granted by the Archbishop of Dublin, which allowed them to wed without the three month notice. The special license is usually given to people who are too sick to get to church or terminally ill and unable to wait 12 weeks. The marriage was not actually recognized under Irish law until Monday afternoon, the day after the wedding! This is when it was filed at Dublin's Central Registry Office. So, in reality, David & Victoria were not legally married until Monday, July 5th!

• David now has a tatoo on his back that says "Brooklyn".

• RUMOR WARNING

  Victoria and David's honeymoon actually took place at the exclusive seaside resort of Cap Ferrat in the South of France. This is according to The Mirror.

  RUMOR WARNING

• A spokeswoman for London's Victoria and Albert Museum said that her managers are bidding to get Victoria's £60,000 dress on display at the museum!

• Victoria was interviewed at her parent's Hertfordshire home yesterday for the first time since her wedding. Victoria recieved a fabulous diamond waist chain and matching diamond earings as a honeymoon gift from David. Her chain is estimated to be worth £10,000! As Victoria showed off her new earings she said:

  "Look what David bought me. It was a wedding present. He gave me matching earrings too. They're diamonds. Aren't they lovely? I love David so much. We can't be apart from each other for more than a few hours. I miss him too much. It was such a romantic holiday, a wonderful few days. I feel so relaxed. In the end, I think we had four days. It was lovely because it was just the three of us. Brooklyn came too, we couldn't bear to be parted. I don't want to say too much, but it was sad we had to leave early. David doesn't get a lot of time off. He works so hard. But, after all, it is his job. He's going back up north tonight and I'll probably follow him up. Or he may come back down. We don't know yet. But we won't be apart long. He's just gone out now to collect Brooklyn and will leave later tonight."

  The couple did not stay at Elton John's mansion in Nice as previously reported. Last night the couple went out to dinner at The Ivy, one of London's most expensive restaurants and bumped into Michael Jordan and Madonna. Madonna invited the newly weds to join them for dinner. Victoria said about Madonna:

  She was lovely. I talked about Brooklyn and asked her about her daughter Lourdes. We shared quite a few tips as mothers."

• The Victoria Wedding issue of OK! Magazine is available! It was actually released yesterday. It devotes 47 pages to the wedding! In the article, David Beckham reveals that he and Victoria asked more specifically for Marks & Spencer gift vouchers. David says: "Not everyone can afford to go out and buy huge presents and we don't want them anyway." The magazine is flying off the news stands, one assistant at WH Smith in London's Victoria Station said: "I've never seen anything like it. People have been flocking in. The Royal wedding came nowhere near."

• The reason why Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson is not allowing David Beckham the time off for his honeymoon is because United is being threatened with the loss of half of a £1.8 million contract if Beckham doesn't play on the Australian tour. Beckham was told long before the wedding that he would need to be back with the team by July 12, and it appears that he & Victoria were sure they would get an extension when planning their honeymoon. A spokesman for the Australian promoters said: "We've tried to be nice but we've been forced to get tough. It's not the honeymoon any more, it's a two million dollar penalty instead."

• David Beckham was furious when he was ordered by Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson to cut his 10 day honeymoon short because he would not be allowed an additional 3 days off. David found out about this shortly before his wedding.

• Word on the street is that the Victoria Wedding issue of OK! Magazine will be released tomorrow. Thanks Amanda.

• The Official Spice Girls Homepage has a surprisingly lengthy article up about the wedding. It basically just tells us everything we already knew, however it cleans up some of he information, and adds a bit more accuracy. Such as that David & Victoria were pronounced man & wife at exactly 4:02PM Dublin time.

• As we know, The Sun newspaper tabloid has been printing some pictures of David & Victoria from the wedding which took place this past Sunday. The pictures appear to be video stills. How in the world did this slip through the ridiculous security that was present at the wedding!? Experts believe that the video pictures were taken by a mini spy-camera. It uses a two millimeter diameter lens fitted to a cable. The camera's eye can be concealed within an outer layer of clothing, and the actual recorder is barely larger than a pocketbook. It is unknown who the spy was, or whether it was someone paid by the Sun, or that decided to do it and then sell the pictures.

• Some scans are finally available of The Sun and The Mirror newspapers. It has turned out that these new pictures were not given to the tabloids by OK! Magazine, and that somehow the tabloids got their hands on them themselves! It is suspected that someone on the photography team at OK! Magazine leaked them. Either way, here they are, they're really small and it's really hard to see anything at all, but it gives you an idea:

  The Sun's inside pictures

• Victoria and David Beckham were up all night on their wedding night! After guests left at 2am, the OK! Magazine publicist said that all the photographs they took from the day's event are developed. So Victoria and David stayed up all night looking at the photos of their precious day. They finally retired to bed at sunrise.

• Looks the The Sun and The Mirror, the two main rival UK tabloids, each have gotten a picture from David & Victoria's wedding! The picture was provided to them by OK! Magazine as a "teaser" picture, in exchange for a free advertizement for OK! Magazine. The picture is of Victoria laughing about a joke made by Mel C, and David is cradling Brooklyn. Victoria is still in her wedding dress in this picture, however a scan of the picture is not available online yet. The picture that is available, is this one of David Beckham. It's not much but it's something! He is wearing the suit he got married in. Keep it here as the scans from the Sun & Mirror will be posted as soon as available!

• Here is a sketch of what Victoria looked like in her wedding dress. The sketch was made by a witness at the wedding. No pictures have surfaced yet as the tight security seems to have paid off. Looks like we are all at the hands of OK! magazine whenever the decide to release their David & Victoria wedding issue. Credit for this sketch goes to The Sun.

• Most of the guests left or are leaving Dublin today. Victoria and David have also left Dublin today for their secret honeymoon location, which is said to be in Boca Boca Tahiti.

• The wedding day of Victoria Adams and David Beckham has come to an end. Victoria is now known as Victoria Beckham. Victoria's dress for the wedding was a £60,000 silk ivory colored dress. The top half of the dress was made of a low-cut corset designed to emphasize her tiny waist and draw attention to her cleavage! It had a 20 foot long veil and a diamond tiara. David was dressed in a matching suit and black shoes. Victoria's bridesmaid was her sister Louise, not the Spice Girls as previously rumored. Victoria's niece Liberty and David's niece Georgina, both only 16 months old were flower girls and were dressed as angels. One white dove was released before the vows begun to symbolize the love between David & Victoria. After the vows, 99 more were released. During the vows, David Beckham was the first to start crying! Once he had started, Victoria couldn't hold back. David, the only one interviewed so far after the wedding said:

  "Once I started, Victoria was next and then Mel G's baby Phoenix Chi started crying. I think half the congregation ended up in tears. But it was just the emotion of the moment for me. I've known Victoria was the woman for me from the first time I set eyes on her and this is the moment I've dreamed of since I first met her."

  Baby Brooklyn however kept quiet and happy throughout the wedding. He was also dressed in an ivory outfit to mach Victoria's and was watched over by the rest of the Spice Girls, not held in the arms of David as previously thought. As the couple were pronounced man and wife, a purple flag went up with the initials V, D, and B, obviously standing for Victoria, David, and Brooklyn. Gary Neville, David's best friend and fellow footballer, was best man for the ceremony. A rich imperial purple carpet runner connected the castle to the wedding marquee. The marquee was full of deep red roses everywhere. There were also trees with apples hanging from them! There were even two red velvet thrones for David & Victoria at the end of the marquee! The wedding ceremony took place at 4pm for the 29 witnesses which were only family members and extremely close friends, which included the other 3 Spice Girls. At 8:30pm guests sat down for dinner. The tables were covered with shiny silver cutlery and plates that really sparkled. For the dinner party Victoria changed into an evening dress designed and made by Antonie Berradi. Brooklyn also changed into a different outfit which was also designed by Berradi! At the dinner a medly of Mozart and Bach was played, along with Ronnie Hazelhurst's theme to It's a Knockout. The classical orchestra had even devoted several months to mastering "classical adaptations" of Spice Girls hits which were played! The dinner menu comprised red pepper soup, followed by breast of turkey or grilled Mediterranean vegetables and for pudding, David's favorite dessert, sticky toffee pudding. An alternative was also available, it was summer berry terrine. The wines served were a New Zealand white and a red Côtes du Rhône and Guinness was served afterwards.

  The only dissapointment of the whole wedding was that Elton John was unable to make it. He had to call off his performance at the wedding because he was too ill to fly. His doctors advised against flying. He was said to be suffering heat-stroke after getting too much sun in Italy while on his current European tour. There were 437 people on staff, matching guests 2 to 1 at the wedding. The tight security worked extremely well as no paparazzi or uninvited guests got through. The security even featured sensors that would be triggered on the grounds in case of people trying to jump the gate the night before. Phone and radio jammers were also installed to prevent electronic eavesdropping. The Mirror newspaper has admitted that for 24 hours they tried to sneak their way into the wedding but had no success. After the dinner, a disco was planned, red and white balloons were released, and a fireworks display was given before teh guests left around 2am. The skies remained clear and blue despite reports the previous day of possible showers. David and Victoria Beckham's honeymoon destination remains a tight secret, but it is rumored to be in the Caribbean.

• There were 236 guests at the wedding, and everybody had to wear a security tag, even baby Brooklyn. Of the 29 close family members and friends that witnessed the actual wedding ceremony were of course the other three Spice Girls. Victoria's Girl Power philosophy stuck with her as she did not pledge to "obey" husband David Beckham. That part of the exchange of vows was cut out. Both David and Victoria shed tears after exchanging vows. The couple did not see each other today at all before the wedding. After the wedding when Victoria and David joined the remaining 236 guests they were treated to an 18-piece orchestra that was playing rehearsed numbers, including a Spice Girls medley!

• Victoria Adams has been married David Beckham. She has become the second Spice Girl to get married. The marriage apparently took place at 4pm UK time, and a single dove was released as a symbol of their love. Only 29 close family members and friends actually saw the wedding, the other approximately 500 guests as previously reported are all attending the reception. Those are the only details now available from the wedding. The tight security seems to be working well. David Beckham was acting extremely relaxed this morning before the wedding as he played golf on the Luttrellstown Castle golf course which surrounds the Castle! He told well-wishers that he was feeling "great" as the big moment approached. Thats all the info available now! Keep it here for updates! Congradulations Victoria!

• The Official Spice Girls Homepage has wedding wishes for Victoria and David from the other Spice Girls in the form of an animated GIF! You have to allow the page to load up completely to see it. Or.. here is a local copy of the animated GIF.

• Air traffic controllers at the Irish Aviation Authority have issued a safety warning in Dublin due to worry of a high volume of air traffic. This is due to the massive amounts of air traffic going on, helicopter wise. Many of the guests were being flown into Luttrellstown Castle via hellicopter. To add to these choppers are the hellicopters of the press photographers, which hired hellicopter's themselves to try to catch an exclusive snap of Victoria, David, & Brooklyn. Luckily for wedding the attendants of the wedding, a one kilometer no-fly zone around Luttrellstown Castle has been introduced to keep away the prying aircraft.

• Victoria will reportedly wear a £100,000 gold and diamond coronet at her wedding!

• The ceremony will apparently begin at 4pm UK time. This is not 100% for sure as it comes from the same source as the below story.

• RUMOR WARNING

  According to the Sunday Mirror, Victoria and David will actually wed in a 220-year-old fairytale stone folly located on the grounds of the 550-acre Luttrellstown Castle. They will wed beneath a romantic canopy of flowers in an idyllic Irish glen with its own magical wishing well. An army of workmen have spent the past week preparing the folly, sprucing up brickwork and knocking down a wall. Victoria and David will arrive in a carriage pulled by two white horses (along a drive which has had special black stones laid on it) and then walk hand-in-hand under a specially-built 20-metre walkway covered in fresh flowers before climbing 12 wooden steps up to the folly. The steps have been covered in carpet so that Victoria's heels won't get stuck in any cracks in the wood.

  RUMOR WARNING

  The validity of this is heavily questionable as it goes against what has previously been reported as the wedding order of events.

• Baby Brooklyn will be at the altar during the wedding! Father David Beckham will tenderly cradle the four month old child as Victoria walks down the aisle. A close friend of the couple said: "David and Victoria had no doubts at all that Brooklyn should be with them when they exchange their vows. The fact that David will be holding Brooklyn means everything to them. They believe it's a way of binding the three of them ever closer together. Victoria always stressed she wanted a spiritual element to the wedding. With Brooklyn in David's arms she believes she has found it." David apparently still does not know what Victoria's dress looks like, but it is believed to be a shoulderless silk dress with a distinctive letter "B" for Brooklyn sewn into it. The couple spent last night sleeping in seperate bedrooms in Luttrellstown castle to keep a traditional touch to the wedding. It has also now been reported that Elton John will sing "Something About The Way You Look Tonight" at the start of the reception.

• The secret of who will marry Victoria Adams and David Beckham was finally unlocked today when Anglican Bishop of Cork, the Rt Rev Paul Colton flew into Dublin today. The reverand is actually a big Manchester United fan. Just before the arrival of the reverand was the arrival of soccer hero Sir Bobby Charlton. All the guests as mentioned before have arrived by now.

• There is a very good chance of picking up showers in the Dublin area tomorrow, and some of them are likely to be heavy. Temperatures will be a moderate 18C, and a chilly 15C in the evening. A downpour could put a dampener on plans for a massive firework display to end the evening. But at least there will be brief sunny spells.

• Locals of Dublin are now expressing extreme discontent with the wedding of Victoria Adams and David Beckham, which is only a few hours away. This is because 125 security guards from three firms of the Dublin police force will be at the wedding tomorrow. This is for even more security. Apparently a secret memo was sent to the police asking them to wear their best uniforms tomorrow and they would be provided with free refreshments inside the castle grounds. Locals are of course enraged that the police will be enjoying free refereshments tomorrow while criminals run the streets. One local said: "This is a disgrace. These officers are supposed to be dealing with car thefts, drug dealing and street crime, instead they will be providing free security at the wedding of a millionaire pop singer and a football player." Comment from the police force is: "We will have to have a presence there because of the amount of wellwishers and traffic that will be expected in the area. They will be controlling traffic, looking after the public and ensuring the safety of the many VIPs that will be in the area."

• Security at the wedding really is extremely tight. There has been a ring of steel erected round the 560 acres of Luttrellstown Castle, Dublin, with security guards flown over from England for the occasion! One security guard said: "We have all been told this is the biggest security risk ever at a British wedding - and we have to be 250% alert."

• All guests for the wedding by now have arrived in Dublin. David Beckham is not having a stag night out tonight. He gave up the opportunity for a "more quiet evening with friends."

• David Beckham yesterday turned down a free $25,000 honeymoon on the Great Barrier Reef. The offer was made after David indicated that the wedding would make him miss Manchester United's upcoming games with the Socceroos. The all expense paid honeymoon was offered by stock broker Rene Rivkin who is desperate for Becks to play because she is backing Man United's tour this month. Beckham declined the offer because of already made honeymoon arrangements.

95.8 Capital FM, a London radio station, just reported that Victoria has landed in Dublin just moments ago!

Friday, July 2, 1999

Victoria and David have officially made their last appearance in England before being married. They posed for interviews and photographs outside their parents' home in Goff's Oak, Hertshome before leaving for the airport. Victoria said:

"I've got a bit shaky. But I'm OK, I'm fine."

That may very well be the final Victoria quote we hear before she is married. David Beckham however insisted: "I'm not at all nervous."

But a friend of his said:

"He is a bit nervous. It's all he's thought about since the season ended. For him it's the culmination of the perfect year, the birth of his son Brooklyn, United's treble and now walking down the aisle with Victoria."

The Mirror did the interview and gave her a beautiful bouquet of flowers and told her they were from the Mirror and all their readers. Victoria said "Thank you so much, they're beautiful." Soon after Victoria, David, family and friends sped off in a burgundy people carrier with tinted windows

Friday, July 2, 1999

Victoria's father Tony Adams phoned in a request to BBC Radio 2 to request a song for his daughter on the countdown. He requested that DJ Ed Stewart play Stevie Wonder's 1977 hit "Sir Duke". Mr. Adams said Victoria has danced to the song for years. Mr. Adams said Victoria and David would be tuning in to hear it on their way to the airport before flying out to Dublin for the celebrations. Mr. Adams called shortly before leaving for the airport himself.

The Sun newspaper(UK) is offering readers to purchase some Victoria & David wedding memorabilia. For nearly £17 you can own a plate, mug and tea towel featuring a photograph, plus a T-shirt for £8.99. All profits go to a charity and the Sun has done this in of course an ironic way. Here is their description of the memorabilia:

"Each item carries a not-at-all cheesy picture of the glamorous couple in matching black leather jackets, complete with the words Posh & Becks and the date of their big day. The mug and plate are made of genuine imitation porcelain. And the tea towel is 100 per cent machine-stitched polyester, none of that hand-sewn rubbish, and comes in any colour you like, as long as it's white. So go on, treat yourself. Or buy the mother-in-law a set. If you don't like her, buy her a couple."

Friday, July 2, 1999

Members of a Championship golf course, which costs £12,000 to join, and £720 a year in fees are furious about the effect that the Victoria and David wedding is having on them. A sign on the chalet-style clubhouse reads: "Due to a private function, the course and clubhouse will be closed to members and visitors on Sunday July 4." Victoria and David bought out the golf course for Sunday for £15,000 in fears that photographers might get a snap of the event from the long par five 12th hole. Golfers are furious, here is what some of them, along with some of the staff constructing the wedding equipment said:

"They don't want to know us on Sunday because of the wedding - it's a disgrace."

"I think it's a load of shit! They're so rich and have so many fans but, rather than share their happiness, nobody gets a look in and they can earn yet another million quid."

"What sickens me is that they are asking for shopping vouchers as their wedding presents, why didn't they ask everyone to make a donation to charity?"

Friday, July 2, 1999

Victoria and David were at a fasion shoot in Scotland yesterday. The shoot took place in the Scottish Highlands. It was done with Vanity Fair magazine for a deal of £1 million. It was done in a remote part of Scotland and David Beckham wore only a pair of charcoal grey Chino trousers, while Victoria was wearing a pink gown and blue shoes with pink soles.

Friday, July 2, 1999

Guests for Victoria and David's Sunday wedding are expected to start flying into Dublin today. Gary Neville, best man for the wedding told a Bolton school that he would be arriving in Ireland today along with some of the Manchester United football team.

Thursday, July 1, 1999

Victoria Adams and David Beckham's engagement cake will be auctioned off tomorrow to the highest bidder to help raise money for a village school. The cake was originally given to David & Victoria as an engagement present by the management of Rookery Hall, a country house hotel in Nantwich, Cheshire, when they held their engagement party there last year. The cake is a replica of the hall. David & Victoria never made it to the party because they discovered that the media had found out about it and would be there. The cake was then auctioned off at a charity raffle at the hall. A mother named Lisa Hocknell won the raffle and donated it to her daughter Emily's new school to be auctioned. It will be auctioned off tomorrow Goostrey Community Primary School in Goostrey, Cheshire will auction off the cake. They hope to make £10,000.

Thursday, July 1, 1999

Things are quickly springing up in Dublin for the big wedding between Victoria Adams and David Beckham which is only 2 days away! Giant trucks are delivering tons of equipment and a marquee is being linked to the castle by a tunnel stretching across the grounds to keep the couple from the eyes of aerial cameras. A wedding at Luttrellstown castle costs £10,000, but catering the event for 300 guests will boost that price up significantly. Rumors are that the wedding is designed with a fairy-tale theme in mind. Victoria is said to want geese and swans wandering about the lawn after inspiration from the similar scene in the movie Father of the Bride. Once again male guests are being asked to wear specially designed black suits and women will wear white evening dress for the event. Star invitees such as Elton John and George Michael will provide entertainment. The whole Manchester United football(soccer) team will be attending minus Manchester United boss Alex Furguson in order to attend the wedding of Richard Sainsbury and Pamela Gordon at the Marcliffe at Pitfodels as a friend of the family.

Thursday, July 1, 1999

The rumors that Victoria Adams and David Beckham are not clear to legally wed in Dublin are false. The Irish Times has confirmed that Victoria and Daved have given notification to the Registrar of Civil Marriages in Dublin of their intention to marry in the State in line with legal requirements. Three months notice has been given. The couple have followed all the procedures to allow them to wed there on Sunday.

Thursday, July 1, 1999

The scene is quickly setting for the wedding around Luttrellstown castle. Tight security kept onlookers away at the giant security gates of the castle, which can't be seen from the road. Delivery men unloaded a red carpet at the security gates. Remember that OK! Magazine has the rights to the wedding and will provide us with the first pictures.

RUMOR WARNING

Victoria Adams and David Beckham can't legally say "I do" this weekend in the Dublin castle they plan to wed in. Neither the church of Ireland nor the registrar for civil marriages in Dublin will have anything to do with the ceremony. This is because the couple failed to meet three basic requirements to wed in Dublin. Neither of the couple has lived in Dublin County for the last 15 days. They haven't given three month's notice to wed. They did not post their marriage banns at least 22 days ago. This means that Victoria and David will have to officially get married in England and then fly to Dublin for a marriage blessing. The main party and events other then the official declaration of matrimony will still take place in Luttrellstown Castle. The deputy registrar for civil marriages of Dublin, Hannah Conway said: "We don't do hotel or castle weddings. Obviously the David Beckham marriage has been the talk of the city for some weeks. But we are not involved, and nobody is conducting any service on a civil level from here. You have to remember that there are very stringent requirements to get married in Dublin, either by licence or civil ceremony." A spokesperson for the church of Ireland said: "Yes, we've heard the rumours too. But the banns are not up, notice has not been given and to the best of our knowledge we are without any knowledge of involvement in the wedding of these two people." Also, the word as to why Geri really isn't attending the wedding is that there could be a lot of tension if the Spice Girls met up with Geri again, and a wedding is not the right place for such an event.

RUMOR WARNING

Wednesday, June 30, 1999

Former Spice Girl Geri Halliwell will not be attending Victoria's £500,000 wedding. Geri claims that it is because she is too busy playing at Party In The Park this weekend in London. It is unclear whether she was invited or not. More then 300 guests will attend the wedding which takes place this Sunday!

Tuesday, June 29, 1999

Victoria has stated that the only wedding gift she really wants from anyone is money! She has asked that her wedding presents be shopping vouchers or cash - convertible units of exchange, in whichever form is most convenient to the giver. Victoria is not alone in this request. A survey shows that one in five couples between 25 and 35 are going for this new cashback style of weddings. These weddings are in essense known as being "smarter weddings" because they eliminate the need of the newly weds to return unwanted items to stores.

Sunday, June 27, 1999

Elton John will sing at the wedding of Victoria Adams and David Beckham. He will surprise the couple with a song he has specially composed just for them. It has also been revealed that the couple plan to have their honeymoon on the paradise island of Bora Bora in the Indian Ocean.

Victoria has revealed that she wants another child already. She spoke to the Sun newspaper and also at the Versace party she recently attended and said:

"Motherhood is the best thing to happen to me and I would recommend it to anyone, but the problem with having a baby is you want another one. Brooklyn is beautiful, he's smiling and gurgling and doing something new every day. It would be brilliant for him to have someone to play with."

David Beckham said:

"I never thought it would be like this. I didn't know I had the feelings that I'm experiencing now. It's been a great year. I've become a dad, I'm getting married and my club won The Treble."

Sunday, June 13, 1999

With under a month until their wedding Victoria and David Beckham both arrived in New York yesterday for a final fitting of Victoria's wedding dress which it has now been determined is designed by Vera Wang. David flew back to London quickly to be with Brooklyn while Victoria stayed in New York to fit the dress and make sure all the measurements are correct. Victoria said she chose Wang instead of one of the more popular designers because:

"There are certain little things I'd like to put on the dress and she's really open to things like that. I couldn't work with anyone who's got a big ego and won't listen to anyone else's opinion."

Thursday, June 3, 1999

A van full of thugs slipped past the security gates of David Beckham and Victoria Adams' home in Cheshire. The van parked by Victoria's blue Mercedes. Victoria shouted down from a window at the intruders and informed them that they were on private property. The intruders only replied with swearing and making threats. When Victoria dialed 999 the intruders left. A week earlier, one of the couple's cars had been vandalised outside their home. A police spokesman said:

"They may have been fans of a rival football team who had sussed out where the couple lived. They hurled abuse, but drove off before the police arrived."

Wednesday, June 2, 1999

Here are the three pictures posted in that German tabloid that show Victoria breast feeding Brooklyn as well as pictures of the threesome together(From Phil):

Apologies to Victoria for further exploiting this invasion of her privacy, but it's my job to provide as complete news as possible and this is a part of it, blame the German tabloid!

Wednesday, June 2, 1999

Victoria and David are relaxing in the south of France at the moment. One German magazine managed to get pictures of Victoria breast feeding Brooklyn from her backside, wearing nothing but her bikini bottom.

Monday, May 31, 1999

Victoria Adams actually almost missed Manchester United's glorious Championship win! When Victoria arrived in England on Wednesday she was supposed to have tickets waiting for her with the hotel that David Beckham left. The hotel however could not find the tickets and Victoria arrived at the game without them. Security actually gave her a difficult time when she explained her situation and tried to get in. Luckily one of Victoria's friends that was with her got a hold of David Beckham's father which was inside the stadium on a mobile phone. David's mother then came down to Victoria with a spare ticket. Victoria got to her seat with just one minute left to spare!

Monday, May 31, 1999

Victoria apparently wanted to have an outdoor sunshine wedding, but she won't be able to do so because OK! Magazine fears that rival publications might get coverage from the sky. OK!

"You see brides and usually they've got all this long, pretty hair, and I've got, like, no hair...and what I have got is spiky! A lot of peoplehave got ideas about what my dress is going to be like, everyone's going to have to wait and see...I don't want to be out and out sexy. I want to do it in a subtle way".

Victoria was on a recent television interview with ITN. She confirmed that giving birth to Brooklyn had changed her view of motherhood. Now that she is a mother she has gotten involved in a national campaign to eradicate meningitis. In fact she was at the studio to launch a new project called "Be Free", dedicated eliminating meningitis from England. Victoria handed over a scooter autographed by David Beckham to be auctioned away at a charity for the project. Victoria said:

"It wasn't until myself and David became parents that we really realised how serious these things are and we became involved with the charity." "We just want to do as much as we can to raise awareness and try to get people to give money."

Victoria was accompanied by Menangitis Research Foundation director Denise Vaughan which announced to the viewers: "May 1999 marks the start of the Foundation's 10th anniversary year. With the help of donations from the public we believe we can Be Free of a disease that not only kills in hours but causes death and disability, fear and devastation." Victoria also further killed the rumor that she doesn't like living in North England and would prefer the South saying:

"That's not true, I really love it in Manchester. There's been a lot of rumours that I don't, but I love it, and David's happy."

Victoria said a bit about Brooklyn as well:

"I worry all the time. That's what my mum told me, she said when you have a baby you don't stop worrying from the day you have the baby until 25 years time, my mum still worries about me. Obviously he's going to have a different kind of life to a lot of children but myself and David just want to make him as anonymous as we can until he's old enough to decide that he wants to do things for himself."

A 10 year old girl from Preston named Karla Millward is determined to be a guest at David & Victoria's wedding. She is coming to the end of her seven month effort to try to get into the wedding. The girl's first attempt was sending a simple letter to the couple politely asking for a fan invite to the wedding. She of course got no reply, so she and her mother made a 250 mile trip to London to deliver a letter to British Prime Minister Tony Blair asking him to help her. The girl has even sent a picture of herself praying to David Beckham to show how much she wants to go. This past week she camped outside of Manchester United's training grounds to get an answer from David Beckham himself, but police told her and her mother to move on. The mother and daughter were ready to spend the night if necessary. Karla has written to Sir Bobby Charlton asking him to "have a word in Beckham's ear."

He has had an operation done on him to remove the hernia at Portland Hospital earlier today. The operation is very routine and usually takes approximately 30 minutes. If Victoria had not spotted the problem this early however, it might have turned into a medical emergency. The baby had been having caughing attacks(signs of a hernia) for the past few nights which also left Victoria and David sleepless and concerned. The parents became even more concerned when Brooklyn was whimpering and looking more distressed at which point Victoria noticed the hernia. Father David Beckham has had Brooklyn's name tatoo'd onto his own back. Mother Victoria Adams will delay her trip to New York to try out her wedding dress because of the operation and it's aftermath.

"It has come to our attention that photographs featuring Ms. Adams and/or Mr. Beckham, together with their new-born child, are being offered for sale on the open market. We write to notify you that these photographs have been stolen from Mrs. Jackie Adams who owns the copyright.

Spice Girl Victoria Adams and England's soccer star David Beckham announced their engagement Sunday, and she showed off a very large diamond ring as they left a five-star hotel.

Adams, who is Posh Spice in the British girl power pop group, and Beckham, the Manchester United and England midfield star, emerged from the Rookery Hall Hotel in Nantwich, Cheshire and told journalists their plans.

"It's just what I wanted and it was a big surprise," the 23-year-old Adams said, flashing her ring against a fur-trimmed bag that matched her fur-trimmed black leather coat and black micro-miniskirt.

"I'm very happy," the 22-year-old Beckham said, before the two drove off in his silver-blue Jaguar.

Their romance is said to have begun months ago after Posh Spice watched Beckham playing for Manchester United.

The couple is not expected to marry for at least a year. Over the coming six months the Spice Girls will be touring and Beckham will be on a gruelling World Cup schedule.

Britain's Press Association said Posh Spice had presented her fiance with a diamond-encrusted gold band.
