Harper Seven Beckham Is Beckham’s Baby Girl

David and Victoria Beckham have chosen and announced the name of their daughter. Harper Seven Beckham is the couple’s first daughter after three sons together and 12-years of marriage. Which is news because Lady Beckham’s womb had, thus far, been successful in its efforts to f**k with her life. The name comes the morning after the Sunday birth of the slightly oddly-named baby girl; she was born Sunday morning, in Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Because David Beckham can’t stay off his Facebook, even as his wife is expelling a baby thing, he wrote this morning, ‘I am so proud and excited to announce the birth of our daughter Harper Seven Beckham. She weighed a healthy 7lbs 10oz and arrived at 7.55 this morning, here in LA. Victoria is doing really well and her brothers are delighted to have a baby sister xx.’ So far as the meaning of the name, Seven is believed to be a reference to the footballer’s number when he played for Manchester United and England. Moreover, according to a source, ‘Harper is an old English name something Victoria has always liked. Seven is a very lucky happy number and the baby was born just after 7am, in the seventh month.’ Further reports have the father crying with joy at the birth by elected Caesarean (the same birth method as her older children). New aunt Joanne Beckham tweeted, ‘Big congrats to my sister in law @victoriabeckham and my big bro on the birth of my beautiful niece : ) can’t wait 2 see u all xx.’ Former Spice Girl, also-pregnant Mel B added, ‘Congrats!!! Yipeee another spice baby is born, damn it wish it was me this AM cos I feel like I’m about to POP!’ Emma Bunton added, ‘Big kiss to @victoriabeckham can’t wait to meet your gorgeous girl!’
