VICTORIA BECKHAM was "over the moon" last night after being told she will give birth to her very own Baby Spice.
The pregnant star, who shot to fame as SPICE GIRL singer Posh, wept tears of joy after her doctor said a hospital scan indicated she was expecting a girl.

She and soccer star husband DAVID had been desperate for a daughter to add to their three young sons.



Baby joy ... Becks, Posh and boys Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz
A close family friend told The Sun: "David and Victoria are over the moon. This will be their last child and to be told they are having a girl is the icing on the cake for the Beckham clan."


Victoria, 36, had a scan in January at the private Rivers Hospital near her family home in Sawbridgeworth, Herts, where medics were unable to establish the gender of her child.

But after a 16-week ultrasound scan nearly a fortnight later she was told she was expecting a girl. Posh then returned for a 4D scan and was told her daughter was healthy and developing perfectly.

Most sonographers can accurately identify a baby's sex at 20 weeks. But some highly-experienced professionals can detect it with a good degree of accuracy at about 16.

Victoria's sister LOUISE, who had daughter Quincy, her fourth child, last August, has offered Posh sack-loads of baby clothes.

Victoria and ex-England skipper Becks, 35, are in Britain until the end of this month. David is training with Spurs before returning to the US to start the season with LA Galaxy.

The couple's fourth child is due to arrive in the summer.

Victoria, mum to BROOKLYN, 11, ROMEO, eight, and five-year-old CRUZ, has spoken frequently of her desire for a little girl. She revealed in one interview she could imagine "painting her nails, putting on make-up, and choosing clothes" with her.

But she seemed reluctant to get her hopes up. Last year she said: "Everyone keeps asking if I'd like a little girl and I think, if I'm lucky enough to have another baby, that would be great."

Posh has said this will be her last child and that four children were the perfect number.

The family source added: "Victoria is 36 and David is thinking about life after retirement. For them, with a sister for their boys - who are growing up fast - this is the perfect family.

"All their dreams have come true. They couldn't have wished for more."

'We have so much testosterone in our house it’s crazy': Pregnant Victoria Beckham speaks out about the chances of a baby girl


Victoria Beckham made sure to set the record straight about her pregnancy, by appearing as a special guest on Jimmy Fallon’s U.S talk show.

The fashion designer insisted to the comedian that she and husband David have no clue as to whether they’re having a boy or a girl, but admitted that testosterone is rife in their house.

The 36-year-old told the comedian: ‘The bizarre thing is that the tabloids think they know the sex of the baby before we do.

‘We have no idea, so it is kind of scary, how do they know?’

The couple is still trying to decide whether to find out before the birth or wait to make it a surprise.

She added: ‘We don’t know, we might find out though, we are excited. It will either be a boy to add to the three boys we have and we will have half of a five-aside football team if you add in David.

‘We have so much testosterone in our house it is crazy.’

Victoria has long spoken of her desire for a girl, after having three sons Brookyln, 11, Romeo, eight, and Cruz, five, but told a forthcoming issue of Vogue that she’s not sure what her chances are of having a girl.

‘Maybe one day another baby, but at this stage I think the chances of having a girl are quite slim’, she said before announcing in January that she and David would be expecting their fourth child this summer.

The former Spice Girl arrived on the talk show sporting maternity glamour in a knee-length black dress and matching heels.

Her slim figure has barely changed so far during her pregnancy and she made sure to show off her bronzed pins despite it being the middle of winter.

Posh is determined to continue working through as much of her pregnancy as possible, saying it’s ‘business as usual’ and has been keeping the romance alive with David as much as possible in-between their work commitments.

David jetted to New York City this week to take his wife out for an intimate Valentine’s Day dinner in Manhattan.

And she recently told the latest issue of Allure magazine: ‘There’s nothing better than being in LA with my kids, cooking dinner with my husband and having a romantic night in.’

I saw that too. I'm not convinced they don't know. The rumours come from somewhere

[Kerry]

Just thought, Imagine how doted (spoilt) she's going to be. Three big protective brothers and loaded famous parents

that was exactly my thought......they've been longing for a girl for years - she's going to have a very priviledge life, that's for sure!! for what it's worth, as parents, their boys are seen to be looking happy and getting upto mischevious typical boys things, so if that's any measure, there will be a certain amount of 'grounding' I think (as much as the lifestyle they lead allows).

They do seem like excellent parents indeed. Certainly not thrusting their kids into the limelight like trophies like some certain 'celebs' do......

[Kerry]

Just read they're coming back to England once Davids current contract is up in America. David wants to finish his career with an English club and Vicky wants to be back near her family

[Shaun]

I'd literally never heard of this until now. How strange.

[Suze]

Pleased for them both now they know for sure it is a girl Although as much as they probably wanted a girl this time round I am sure they would have been just as happy with either sex once it arrives.
