LA's hottest couple, David and Victoria Beckham have been embroiled in a series of rows over their plans for a fourth baby, it has been revealed. The pair are said to be deeply divided over when to start trying for the child, which they hope will be a girl.
David, 32, wants Victoria, 33, to get pregnant as soon as her Spice Girls reunion tour wraps up in February, but Posh has infuriated Becks by refusing - despite initially telling him she wanted the same thing.
A close friend of the famous couple said: "David is desperate for another baby, the baby they have talked about for ages.
"But Victoria is reveling in the success of the band reunion and loves the partying that comes with it. She is very loyal to David but she feels she has played second fiddle to him for long enough. Now it's her time to shine again.
"As far as she's concerned, another baby is not on the agenda right now. It's causing strife in the relationship. You can feel the tension."
Just four weeks before the Spice Girls tour started, Victoria - who has three sons with David, Brooklyn, 8, Romeo, 5, and Cruz, 2, told a US TV show that she would wait until after the concerts to try for another baby, saying: "It would be great to have a girl. It would finish the family off. But I have a big tour coming up and I don't want to get pregnant."
Now Victoria wants to postpone their plans even longer - and has even hinted that three children might be enough for her. In a joint interview with Barbara Walters in December, the LA Galaxy star, said: "I want to have more children. I would love to have two more. I've always wanted a big family."
But an unenthusiastic Victoria replied: "Er, I've had three."
The source added to Britain's Sunday People newspaper: "David was mad at Victoria's response. "He is desperate to have more kids and wants to start now."
Becks is so eager to be a dad again - he has even started wearing loose-fitting clothing to increase his fertility.
He has also asked his mother-in-law Jackie, to persuade image conscious Victoria - who recently made Mr Blackwell’s list of Worst Dressed Women, to go for baby number 4 - but Victoria fears another baby will make her fat.
"Victoria's got major issues about having another baby. She's terrified of putting on any weight, but she has to if she wants to fall pregnant," a pal said earlier this month.
Another pal added: "It's a major bone of contention - but who can blame Victoria? She's living the dream. The reunion tour has gone better than her wildest hopes. Getting back with the band has given her a new lease of life.
"She is determined to enjoy herself. She loves the fact that now she is in the driving seat - just like when they first got together in 1997.
"She was then a successful pop star and he was a little-known Manchester United player. This year is for her. She wants to party, party, party and a baby won't allow that. David is deeply upset.
"He doesn't love partying, he'd rather be at home. He's at his wit's end."
