Golden-bulge! David Beckham shows off his impressive package again as he models his own underwear range for H&M

By Kirsty Mccormack


Spot the difference: David Beckham shows off his bulge again in his new underwear range for H&M but it looks very similar to his campaign for Armani back in 2009


Fans have been excited to see David Beckham in his underwear ever since he announced his new campaign back in July - and now the wait is over.

New images showing the 36-year-old footballer posing in tight briefs for retail fashion chain H&M were released today and are bound to please the ladies.

David is showing off his toned body, his extensive body art and of course an impressive package in the advertisement for his own bodywear.


Wearing a pair of tight white trunk briefs - that will retail at £9.99 a pair - the father-of-four looks mean and moody as he stares into the distance.

The image bears many similarities to that of David's previous campaign with Italian designer brand Armani who he first modelled for in 2007.

The only props missing from his latest campaign are a giant rope, lots of hair gel and a bottle of baby oil.

Cheap briefs: The white underwear that the footballer is modelling will cost £9.99 and will be available to buy on February 2


The sportsman caused quite a stir two years ago when he revealed his bulge in the black designer briefs, and even opted for a skimpier pair in an image that saw him laying down wearing an unbuttoned white shirt.

Of course the high-street brand is worlds away from Armani, but men will still be pleased to know they can wear a pair of David's designs.

Earlier this year, the LA Galaxy star spoke of his plans to branch out into the fashion industry.

'I have had the idea of doing a bodywear collection for some time now,' he told WWD.

Showing off: Beckham enjoyed a three year contract with the Italian designer brand


'The push to do something of my own really came as a result of my collaboration with Armani.'

David's appearance on giant billboards across the world worked extremely well for the designer brand and resulted in a doubling of profits for the company in one year.

'It proved to me that there is a real market for good-looking, well-made men's bodywear,' he continued.

'I can't wait to show people the collection - although I'm not sure my mum will be too happy seeing a billboard image of me in underwear again.'

The new range will be available to buy in H&M stores from February 2 - just in time for Valentine's Day.

Big hit: Armani's profits doubled following David's campaign which is seen being unveiled here at Selfridges in London in June 2009


The Swedish retailers are no doubt hoping that they will make the perfect gift for women to present their husbands and boyfriends with.

Perhaps David will sport a pair for the annual romantic date with his wife Victoria, but one thing's for sure - they won't be spending it in Paris.

Today it was revealed that David will not be making the move to the French capital to play for Paris Saint Germain.

In what would have been a coup for the French side, Becks turned down a lucrative offer to join ex-Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti after citing 'family reasons' for his refusal.

The footballer, who is currently in the UK with his family on a winter break from America after winning the MLS title last November, is now expected to sign a new deal with LA Galaxy.

David Beckham cites 'family reasons' for cancelling Paris move and extending his time in Los Angeles

By Daily Mail Reporter


Family matters: David Beckham's move to PSG has collapsed to avoid uprooting his LA-based family


The designer boutiques of Paris will be a little disappointed after news that David Beckham snubbed a move to Paris Saint Germain.

So Victoria will have to stick with the shops of Los Angeles for the time being.

In what would have been a coup for the French side, Becks turned down a lucrative offer to join ex-Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti in the French capital after citing 'family reason' for his refusal.


'It's over,' Leonardo told L'Equipe. 'It's a shame. But the welfare of his family in Los Angeles, the wish not to change everything in his life, weighed heavily.'

The club's sporting director Leonardo revealed today: 'He will not come to PSG.'

Beckham, who is currently in the UK with his family on a winter break from America after winning the MLS title last November, is now expected to sign a new deal with LA Galaxy.

Not upping sticks just yet: Victoria with sons Brooklyn and Cruz leaving Claridges last week


And PSG president Nasser Al Khelaifi confirmed Leonardo's comments, saying that LA Galaxy have won the battle for his signature.

When asked if he thought Beckham would stay in LA, Al Khelaifi replied: 'Yes, I think so. David Beckham is in Los Angeles and will stay there. He will not come, it's clear.'

Leonardo had previously stated he was willing to wait for as long as it takes to allow Beckham to make his decision over whether to move to the French capital.

Sticking with the Galaxy: Becks will stay in Los Angeles with his team who won the Major League Soccer championship last year


'The question has never been professional but about his family. It is a difficult choice to make to move his family to Paris,' he said.

'I know him. I have an incredible admiration for him as a player and a father too. I understand that it is difficult to move.'

But now it seems the former Manchester United and Real Madrid midfielder will remain the States.

Beckham is said to have been buoyed by the success of LA Galaxy after they won last season's MLS championship, and the improving quality of a team that also includes Robbie Keane and Landon Donovan.

Of course, his boys Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz are all settled into the LA way of life too - upping sticks to Paris would understandably put quite a strain on the family.

Although Victoria would have been in her element with the city's range of designer shops and couture outlets.

Now that really is a man-dash! David Beckham does some last-minute shopping in East London

By Emily Sheridan


Man-dash: Footballer David Beckham sprints out of a Boots Clearance store in Beckton, East London on Christmas Eve


He may be a millionaire footballer, but it appears David Beckham is a regular man after all.

The father-of-four, 36, was spotted doing a last-minute 'man-dash' for some presents on Christmas Eve in East London.

While wife Victoria was at home at Beckingham Palace in Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, her husband was on the hunt for some gifts.

No luck: Bemused shoppers look on as Beckham runs out of the Boots Clearance store


Clearly stressed in his race against time, the footballer rushed into a Boots Clearance store in Beckton Triangle Retail Park.

But it looks like he may not have found what he was looking for as he was spotted running back to his car to speed off to another shop.

As he ran out of Boots empty-handed, fellow shoppers couldn't believe what they were seeing.

Dapper: Beckham looked smart in a black suit over a jumper and shirt as he ran last-minute Christmas errands


He was also spotted at a Marks & Spencer store is Cheshunt, Herts, and a Tesco.

Despite living in Madrid and Los Angeles over the past 10 years, the Beckhams have always tried to spend Christmas at home with their families in England.

Although they have shared many a turkey dinner with close friends Gordon and Tana Ramsay, this year the celebrity chef will be noticeably absent.

Gordon is hosting a live Christmas Day 'cookalong' on Channel 4, but gave the Beckhams some cooking tips.

Your shopping list is even bigger this year: With four children now, Becks' Christmas shopping is even more painstaking


The Beckhams arrived in England from LA last weekend for their two-week Christmas break.

And it will be the first Christmas for their five-month-old daughter Harper Seven.
Victoria has apparently spent thousands on decorating their home for the big day.

Daddy's Little Elf! David Beckham cradles adorable daughter Harper as Victoria watches their boys play football... in six inch heels

By Dianne King


Adorable: David Beckham looked a proud father as he held five-month-old daughter Harper in Santa Monica, California today


David Beckham looked like the proudest father in the world as he toted his baby daughter to a football match today.

The British athlete attended the game in Santa Monica, California where son Romeo, nine, showed off his skills on the pitch.

But it was five-month-old Harper who stole the show in her gorgeous little elf-style hooded top.

Style over comfort: While David wore comfortable trainers Victoria teetered around in six-inch Christian Louboutin boots


The always impeccably behaved little one looked snug in her black jumper and wore beige trousers like her father's and her outfit was completed with light brown booties.

Harper looked as though she was already getting in the Christmas spirit with the Santa's helper inspired outfit although the choice of colour was not that festive.

David was the doting dad and preferred to carry Harper rather than push her along in her stroller that he also maneuvered near the field.


Daddy's little girl: The football star enjoyed a cuddle with the five-month-old rather than pushing her in the stroller


Still in love: The parents-of-four looked on as their boys played


But true to form, Victoria was also along for the family day out wearing ridiculously high heels.

The 37-year-old fashion designer grabbed Harper for a cuddle and took her for a walk while teetering around in six-inch Christian Louboutin boots.

Never cracking a smile, the mother-of-four watched from the sidelines carrying a large orange back and dressed head to toe in black.

Eldest son Brooklyn didn't play but doted on his baby sister and played with Harper while she remained in her father's arms.


Who's a chubby baby: Big brother Brooklyn played with his baby sister and made faces at her to get her to smile

Go on son: The family watched on as Romeo ran around the field


The 12-year-old tried to get a smile from the precious bundle of joy by pulling faces at her.

Victoria rested her hand on six-year-old Cruz's shoulder as she peered out at Romeo on action as they had their usual activity-filled Saturdays out.

The former Spice Girl recently told Hello magazine that she never leaves home without her youngest child but explained why all of her children don't globe-trot with her.

'She comes everywhere with me,' Victoria gushed about little Harper Seven.

Shading herself: The fashion designer wore head to toe black but carried a large orange handbag as she tried to protect herself from the sun


'All the kids would come everywhere with me, but they have to be at school,' she told Hello!

Victoria added that her four children and her football ace husband David are the inspiration for her work.

'David is my rock. He encourages me and gives me confidence to do what I do and my kids inspire me every day. And my mum and dad were here, which was fantastic. I love them all so, so much. My family means everything to me.'

Victoria also told OK! magazine that she had no friends when she was growing up but it taught her to be resilient.

That's my boy: David seemed impressed with Romeo's ball skills


'I was a skinny sallow-faced eight-year-old with pigtails and a gap in my teeth big enough for a pea to get stuck in. It was miserable. I didn't fit in.

'Children were picking things up out of puddles and throwing them at me. I just stood there, on my own.

'People would push me around, say they were going to beat me up.

'What did I care? I didn't need friends. One day I'd show them. One day I'd be famous and then they'd be sorry.'


You're the cutest: David couldn't keep his eyes off of his longed for daughter

'David is my rock': Victoria Beckham gushes after 12 years of marriage as she talks being crowned the queen of fashion

By Alanah Eriksen


She put on an out-of-character public display of emotion as she accepted a top prize at the British Fashion Awards last week.

And it appears Victoria Beckham continued to put aside her usual steely reserve backstage.

The 37-year-old gushed about football ace husband David and their four children as she discussed the inspiration for her work.

Not so Posh anymore: Victoria Beckham, pictured after winning Designer Brand of the Year last week, says her children and husband David are her inspiration


'I well up just thinking about it,' she told Hello! after accepting the Designer Brand of the Year gong.

'David is my rock. He encourages me and gives me confidence to do what I do and my kids inspire me every day. And my mum and dad were here, which was fantastic. I love them all so, so much. My family means everything to me.'

Victoria attended the event at London's Savoy hotel while her five-month-old daughter Harper slept upstairs.

David was with his team, LA Galaxy, in Jakarta but was quick to congratulate his wife via Facebook.

Still in love: Victoria, who has been married to her LA Galaxy star husband for 12 years, described him as her 'rock'


The couple, who have been married for 12 years, left their three boys, Brooklyn, 12, Romeo, nine, and Cruz, six, at home in the U.S. so they could attend school.

Victoria revealed that she almost forgot to thank people because her mind 'went blank' as she fought nerves on stage, despite performing hundreds of times during her time in the Spice Girls.

'But I had four other people to hide behind. People say to me: "Oh, it must be easy for you, to get up on that stage - you did it before". But that was the most nervous I have ever, ever been. It's been like a roller coaster ride, it really has.'

Victoria also told OK magazine that she had no friends when she was growing up but it taught her to be resilient.

'Children were picking things up out of puddles and throwing them at me. I just stood there, on my own.

'People would push me around, say they were going to beat me up.

'What did I care? I didn't need friends. One day I'd show them. One day I'd be famous and then they'd be sorry.'

With the support of her father Tony and mother Jackie in the audience, Victoria fought tears on stage as she accepted her award from friend Marc Jacobs.


'I'm so sorry for crying. I'm being so rubbish, she said.

She added: 'I would like to thank the British fashion industry for your support,' she said. 'I'd like to thank my team, you all know who you are, your focus, your creativity, I couldn't do it without you.

'Simon Fuller, a dear friend and the best business partner that anybody could possibly ask for.

'My parents, my kids and my husband. Without David I wouldn't have had the courage to do what I am doing.'

Marc Jacobs told the magazine his friend was 'a great mother to her kids and a great wife to her husband'.

He also revealed: 'She also said to me that she was going to have this hurdle of getting over the whole Post Spice thing and footballer's wife.

'And I said "We all have hurdles. If you really want to do this - and it seems like you really do _ you will do it". And she has, and she's done it with great style and humility and she deserves to be rewarded for it.'

Where Did The Name Harper Seven Come From?


Ok, so everyone has figured out that Victoria and David Beckham's new baby girl's middle name comes from daddy's lucky number 7, as that was his jersey number at Manchester United. But where did Harper come from?

Yesterday I mentioned that maybe the couple concieved Harper in Ireland, with the Irish symbol being a Harp it's plausible right? Well now there are reports that the baby has been named after a TV show character!

Apparently the three Beckham boys, Brooklyn (12), Romeo (8) and Cruz (6), are fans of a the US show  Wizards of Waverly Place about a magical family whose best friend is Harper Finkle. Justin Bieber's squeeze Selena Gomez is the main star of the show and apparently the boys are obsessed!

That would be a sweet reason to name her Harper, makes her very special to her big brothers!

Victoria Beckham and David Beckham Name Baby Girl!

We're parents again!


After months of speculation Victoria and David Beckham have finally named their baby girl.

The power couple welcomed their first baby girl into the world last night via C-section and the pair have named her Harper Seven.

The middle name, Seven, is David's lucky number as it was his number while playing for Manchester United.

No word yet on where the name Harper came from, but the couple normally name their children after the place they were conceived. Maybe they conceived her in Ireland and thought Harp was the national symbol... could I be right?

David Beckham Releasing Own Fashion Line



What else can the Beckhams do at this point?

Joining his wifey Victoria in the fashion world, David Beckham is releasing his own fashion line. He said today that he the idea for the fashion label came from his expereience with working on the Armani campaign:
"I have had the idea of doing a bodywear collection for some time now. The push to do something of my own really came as a result of my collaboration with Armani. They told me that their gross turnover in 2007 was around 16 million euros, and after the campaign in 2008 it went up to 31 million euros, in 2008. It proved to me that there is a real market for good-looking, well-made men's bodywear."

The footballer added that he is really excited about the line and has worked close with his team to come up with the best designs and fabrics:
"With my team we have spent time working on the fit, the fabric and the style to ensure the product looks and feels the very best and I am hugely proud of the end result. I can't wait to show people the collection - although I'm not sure my mum will be too happy seeing a billboard image of me in underwear again."

And on top of all that the hottie is also planning to release a new fragrance - Homme by David Beckham.

David Beckham Says A Girl Is All He And Victoria Had "Hoped For!

"So Happy"


Awh... it looks like this will make a perfect family of six!

I reported a few days ago that David and Victoria Beckham are expecting their first baby girl and now the footballer daddy says they were always hoping they would have a girl:
"It’s something obviously we hoped for, but obviously when you have a baby you kind of just think as long as it’s healthy … [then] that’s all you worry about.When you have three boys, you just kind of assume that you’re going to have another one."

But believe or not, the couple were first told that they were actually having a boy! David revealed that their doctor read the scan wrong at first:
"When we went to have the 3-month scan they said, ‘Oh, it looks like a boy,’ and we were like, ‘Oh, great, we’re going to have another boy. Then we went back and they were like, ‘Actually, it’s a girl.’ The emotion hit us, and … it’s amazing! Some people like to be surprised [by the sex of the baby], but it’s good to be prepared. The boys are so excited as well thinking they’re going to have a little sister.”
This is definitely a dream come true for them both, and what a lucky girl she is going to be, having a fashion designer mommy!!

I wonder what they will call her?

It's just been announced that couple David and Victoria Beckham are expecting a baby girl! David made the announcement at an LA Galaxy press conference.

With four boys already, Victoria is said to be over the moon to be having her first girl. And wow is she going to have amazing clothes or what? It will definitely be handy having a mommy fashion designer!

Meanwhile... footballer hubby David has vowed to the people affected by the Japenese earthquake. The LA Galaxy player said he will do anything to help:
"I will lend my support in any way possible. This devastation has hit so many families. Unfortunately, these international tragedies are happening all the time. My heart goes out to those people."
The hunky sports star added that sport can really help the country rebuild:
"Obviously, they right now are dealing with the loss of their homes and belongings, but then I think it's time to raise the hopes and morale of people who are dealing with this tragedy. I've always said the game of soccer and watching other sports takes your mind off certain things. That's the power of sports."
Check out this video below where David makes the announcement:

Almost exactly one month after announcing her fourth pregnancy, the 36-year-old fashion designer was snapped at London's Heathrow airport.

The wife of David Beckham looked hot in tight black pants and studded stilettos but she draped her bump in a loose-fitting white shirt and a dark blazer.
