VICTORIA BECKHAM is expecting baby number five according to some gossip websites and magazines.

The Beckhams’ fourth child, daughter Harper Seven, is now fifteen months old and, according to a “close pal” of the couple, Posh has been dropping hints that she’s expecting again, and has been changing her lifestyle to accommodate another pregnancy.

The fashion designer has apparently eased up on her exercise regime and has cut out alcohol.

It’s also reported that when she was last in London Victoria dropped hints that her current unruly brood might become even more unruly next year.

The source said: “She was also talking about having some strange food fads and she didn’t drink at all, not even to celebrate after performing at the Olympics. Her behaviour led to some of her friends asking outright if she was pregnant and she just smiled in response.”

To add fuel to the fire other pals have said that Victoria is keen to have another baby before she reaches 40 in April 2014.

David has also made no secret of his desire to have another child.
