Victoria Beckham Getting Broody During Olympics

Victoria Beckham and husband David are hoping to conceive their fifth child whilst London hosts the Olympics.

Speaking to Now Magazine, a source close to the Beckhams said "Both Victoria and David are very patriotic and would love it if she got pregnant while they are in London for the Olympics, especially as it is also the Queen's Diamond Jubilee year".

Given that each of their other children - that's Brooklyn, 13, Romeo, 9, and Cruz, 7, and Harper Seven, 1 - were born overseas then the momentous year for Britain would serve as an ideal time for the pair to conceive their next child.

Both Victoria and David Beckham, who married in 1999, have stressed their desire to always have five children, so chances are the two must at least be considering baby number five around this point.

Victoria, renowned for her super-skinny frame, is said to be re-evaluating her diet in a bit to put a bit of meat on her tiny body. If history is anything to go by then this revelation could serve as a relatively reliable indication that the Beckhams are in fact trying for baby number five.

Word on whether the pair would add to their impressive brood has hardly been far away and towards the beginning of the year bookies had given odds of 6/4 that the couple would end up with a baby in 2012.
