The Beckham’s New $22 Million LA Mansion

Despite recent feuding, the Beckhams are moving in down the street from Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. After viewing more than 30 properties in Beverly Hills, Victoria and David finally settled on a six-bedroom “trophy estate”, priced at $22 million.

According to Hello! magazine, “Set in a 13,000-square-foot plot, the Italian-style mansion will be Victoria and David’s base when the Real Madrid player moves to LA Galaxy. The modern interior features a mixture of hardwood and slate floors with six fireplaces and full air-conditioning. And there should be no squabbles about who gets to use the shower first - the house has nine bathrooms.”

"The lavish property also boasts views of the ocean, a swimming pool and fountain as well as a three-car garage. Nor should privacy be a problem as it’s surrounded by tall hedges and accessed by huge iron gates,” Hello! sources continued.

Meanwhile, with the troublesome house purchase over and done with, Victoria now plans on sorting out schools for their sons, eight-year-old Brooklyn, Romeo, four, and Cruz, two.

The school visits will have to wait, though, as Posh was spotted heading to Madrid from LAX on Sunday (April 29), after staying only one day to sign the contract for her new pad.
