David Beckham Calls In The Lawyers

Can Posh and Becks fight off the rumours again?

This week, news broke that David Beckham’s father Ted, 71, was dating multimillionaire lawyer Hilary Meredith, 60, 17 years after divorcing his wife Sandra. And now sources reveal to New Idea that Victoria is getting anxious about the new relationship.

Rumours that their own marriage may be on the rocks have been circling the British star couple and now the mother-of-four is said to be worried that if they were to separate, her husband would be able to get his affairs in order quite quickly by seeking advice from Hilary’s firm.

A close family friend revealed: “Posh is absolutely petrified about Ted’s relationship with Hilary – immediately freaking out when she realised the lawyer’s firm specialises in family law – telling pals that she was convinced David’s seeking advice from her.

“She started researching [Hilary] and her practice – convincing herself that if David wanted to get out of their marriage, he could now do so easily,” they added.
