Posh’s piggy X-mas gift for hubby
LONDON: Victoria Beckham has reportedly splashed out £1,400 to buy husband David the perfect Christmas gift — two micro pigs.
According to reports, the 35-year-old hottie took delivery of the nine-inch, 13-pound porkers earlier this week. She has already nicknamed them Elton and David after friends Elton John and his partner David Furnish. However, David is keen on Pinky and Perky, reports The Mirror.
A source said, “What can you possibly buy the multi-millionaire, superstar footballer who has absolutely everything? In the case of David Beckham, the answer is, obviously, a pair of cuddly designer piglets.Victoria fell in love with them and realised she’d found the perfect present.”
The source added, “Micro pigs are incredibly clean and easy to house-train. They will be given the run of the place and could even end up watching TV on David and Victoria’s laps.”
The couple, who have three children, Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, seven, and Cruz, four, are not the only stars to think pigs make perfect pets.
Earlier this month, Paris Hilton added a fully-grown micro-pig called Miss Pigelette to her collection of animals, while Harry Potter star Rupert Grint has adopted two of the animals.
George Clooney spearheaded the
trend for pig ownership with his giant
potbellied pig, Max, and was devastated when the animal died in 2006 after 18 years together.
