Beck to the UK? David Beckham reveals he wants to return to England soon

David Beckham revealed yesterday he would love to bring his family back to live in England soon.

The superstar said he and wife Victoria are “always tempted” to move back to Britain but insisted their children’s schooling takes priority for now.

The doting dad-of-four also admitted he is amazed at just how “feminine” his 10-month-old baby daughter Harper is and said he would like to add to his brood by maybe having “one or two more”.

“Harper’s a little heartbreaker”, the 37-year-old smiled.

“When she comes into the room, everyone lights up around her and her face lights up. It’s amazing to see.

“Having three boys, it’s totally different now. Everyone says it will be different when you have a girl, but I never realised just how feminine girls are from a very young age.

“I know it sounds stupid, but they really are very feminine.

“Everyth ing that she does - she hardly cries to be honest - but the way she moves her hands, the little noises she makes, it’s totally different to having boys.

“With three boys there is a lot of energy in the house. They are constantly on the go from the moment they wake up to the moment they sleep.

“But Harper is totally different. She is relaxed and feminine.”

Coming home? Beckham hopes to return to England soon

And he didn’t rule out the chance of having more children with wife Victoria, laughing: “If we have one or two more - two might scare Victoria but we will see.”

The LA Galaxy player has been travelling the world in recent weeks, collecting the London Olympic flame in Greece and helping Princess Anne deliver it to Cornwall for the start of the torch relay.

And he admitted that leaving his young family is always difficult, adding: “They understand that I work away, they’ve always known that, but it never gets any easier.

“But I’ve got hundreds of pictures of the kids with me - my phone’s screensaver is one of the whole family.”

Becks, who will today be honoured by the FA for winning 115 caps for his country before England take on Belgium at Wembley added: “I always miss England and London, we’re always tempted to come home.

“But we have four kids - three of them are in school - and they’re at a critical time in their sc hooling but we’ll see.

“Whether I continue to play or I don’t ... at the moment I have no plans on finishing at the end of this season.

“I want to play for as long as possible and then we’ll see.

“At the end of the day, I always miss London - just having pie and mash with my Mum or Dad and visiting my Nan.

“We always love coming home and we’re always tempted to come home so we’ll see what happens.”

Golden girl: Jessica Ennis

 

Becks yesterday made a surprise visit to Vaughan Primary School in Harrow, north-west London, to promote Sainsbury’s successful ‘Million Kids Challenge’ which has got more than two million schoolchildren trying Paralympic sport ahead of this summer’s Games.

As the countdown to the Games continues, Becks admitted he had not yet been asked to light the Olympic cauldron - and said golden girl heptathlete Jessica Ennis was an inspiration to him.

He said: “Jess is just amazing for me - she’s a great girl and very down to earth, but so talented in what she does.

“There’s a lot of athletes out there who are amazing, but I love Jess as a person. As an athlete, she is looked up to by so many people so it’ll be exciting to watch her.”
