Beckhams selling French home, deny they are divorcing
LONDON: David and Victoria Beckham are selling their US$ 3 million ( RM12 million) sixbedroom estate in France, but deny that they are in the midst of a divorce.
The estate comes with a guest house and chapel.
David, 41, and Victoria, 42, purchased the home in 2003 for US$ 1.29 million, and have officially indicated that they wanted to sell since they “were hardly ever” there.
“When they were, David signed the odd autograph and he once had a kick- about with the villagers, but that was their only contact with them,” one insider said. “You wouldn’t have seen Victoria queuing for a croissant in the village boulangerie.”
However, several online magazines have reported that they could be moving for a different reason.
David was caught flirting with two different brunettes while at a SoulCycle class in Los Angeles, and the couple has been squabbling out of the public eye.
Earlier this year, the Beckhams had severed their business ties with each other, with David resigning from his position at her fashion line.
But both have steadfastly denied they are splitting.
Their home in the village of Bargemon features a lavishly decked- out purple sitting room, six bedrooms and an infinity pool.
According to The Sun on Sunday, the couple bought the 19th century home for £1.3million in 2003 and spent £ 5million on renovations.
A source told The Sun on Sunday: “The Beckhams might have poured millions into the mansion, but they didn’t seem too keen to enjoy the results of their cash.”
