DAVID BECKHAM was devastated after his father suffered severe memory loss after his recent heart attack - and forgot the soccer star’s name. Ted Beckham, 59, was so disorientated after the attack he couldn’t recognise key family members.

A source tells British newspaper The Sun, “David, Jo and Lynne (his daughters) were all incredibly upset.” L.A. Galaxy star Beckham flew back to Los Angeles with wife, Spice Girl Victoria, on Sunday (30Sep07) after an emotional reunion with his ailing father.

Ted, who almost died after a sudden heart attack last week (begs24Sep07), is expected to be released from hospital later today (04Oct07).

DAVID BECKHAM has made a dramatic dash back to the UK after his father suffered a near-fatal heart attack.

The superstar footballer, who now lives in California, flew back to England last night following the news that Ted Beckham had been taken to hospital.

David’s father had “died” on the way to Whipp’s Cross hospital in London, but had then been resuscitated by paramedics.

The 59-year-old is said to be recovering in a central London hospital with his family near him.

David, 32, rushed through Los Angeles’ LAX airport last night without checking in.

An eyewitness told the Daily Mail: “I don’t think anyone minded at all. Everyone is just wishing him and his father the best. It was a very sad sight to see.”

It is believed his wife VICTORIA BECKHAM could not come with him.

A hospital source told the paper: “He was in the emergency resuscitation room for hours as the doctors worked on him.

“This is going to be heartbreaking for David. I know he and his son haven’t been that close since he got famous, but it’s still his dad.”

DAVID BECKHAM and wife VICTORIA BECKHAM have announced they will be trying for a fourth baby now they have moved to the US.

The Beckhams, who already have three young sons, moved to LA this summer following a protracted goodbye from Europe.

And now they have settled in their new home in California, Victoria has claimed the celebrity couple are looking to have a fourth baby.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror, she said: “We’d like to have another - maybe next year. He or she might be lucky enough to have dual nationality.”

She added that, despite a bumpy start, the family have now settled into their new life.

“I love it here and I’m so glad that David’s now fit and playing full games - it was so frustrating for him being stuck on the bench.

“It’s so great for us all here.”

Victoria added that, while Madrid was “lovely”, the couple didn’t know too many people

“Here I have people I can pop round to see. Katie’s a really good friend, as is Eva Longoria - it makes settling in a whole lot easier,” she said.

Victoria Beckham was gunning to buy Madonna’s LA mansion, but she is said to have bugged Madonna in order to get her hands on the place.

Madonna wasn’t having it and doubled the price, but Posh called her bluff and said she was willing to meet Madonna’s demands.

Madonna then took the house off the market and shut Posh down when she kept pleading with her for it.

But Madonna upped the price by $10 million.

Posh phoned Madonna endlessly, whining about how denying them their dream home would destroy her and David’s marriage. An exasperated Madonna finally took the place off the market, saying her apartment was ideal for her elderly and ailing father.

The Beckhams are now settled in their Beverly Hills estate.

It’s hard to believe, but having a $20 million (Rs 80.5 crore) house isn’t enough for Victoria Beckham.
The British babe, along with her football stud husband David Beckham is already in talks to move to a more bodacious pad.

They’ve only been in the US for a few weeks, but Posh is feeling a bit outdone by the rest of Hollywood’s royalty.
The modest house that Katie Holmes helped her pick prior to their move isn’t enough of a status symbol for the Spice Girl.

“Victoria wants to do everything possible to establish herself as a top Hollywood celebrity. It is tremendously important to her that she competes with the mega-rich crowd,” said an insider.
Rumour has it that the Beckhams will be trying to find a place to call home along Malibu’s Billionaire’s Beach. Until then, they’ll be slumming it in the Beverly Hills mansion.

One of the hardest things that Victoria Beckham will have to get used to if she wants to live in America is the lack of tact displayed by most people. And in this case, most people includes Paris Hilton.

Upon her move to America, Victoria was reportedly approached about pursuing a friendship with Paris. “We could be soul mates,” Paris told her friends. But Vic had other thoughts… “Over my dead body!”

Apparently Paris is a bit obsessed with Victoria’s husband David Beckham. Earlier this month, the heiress was quoted as calling the football stud “hot” and Posh isn’t too thrilled about it.

And that goes for all the Hollywood ladies that may want a piece of the new British import. “Although she trusts David 100 per cent, she will not tolerate any of the Los Angeles party girls making a move on him, or seeing him as fair game.

“She wants this to be very clear from the start — David is a devoted family man and these women should forget about trying it on with him,” said a friend of the Beckhams.
