Victoria Beckham: No Baby Yet!

It turns out rumors circulating yesterday that Victoria Beckham and footballer husband David were set to welcome their fourth child on the 4th of July did not pan out.

Fans of the couple on Twitter rapidly spread the rumor, even purporting to know the baby’s name and birth weight. The speculated 4th of July due date would also happen to fall on the couple’s twelfth wedding anniversary, but the couple’s flak told press that the baby won’t arrive until later this month:

The spokesman tells Britain’s Daily Mail, “The rumours are rubbish, Victoria has not had the baby but she will be giving birth soon.”

David’s publicist, Simon Oliveira, also addressed the rumours on Monday, writing in a post on Twitter, “Contrary to certain reports, David and Victoria Beckham’s baby is not due today and that was never the case.”

The child will be the Beckhams’ first daughter, and the couple has three sons: Romeo, Cruz and Brooklyn.
