Due to an overwhelming number of presents for their new baby, David and Victoria Beckham are donating many of them to charity.
The couple gave birth to baby number four – who they named Harper Seven – earlier this month, and were inundated with gifts for the infant. Britain’s Daily Mail is reporting they plan to donate a large number of the items to charity shops around Beverly Hills.
“David and Victoria have a policy that they don’t accept gifts and endeavour to return anything that is sent to them,” a source told the paper. "If anyone contacts the office in Los Angeles, they’re told that – but often they send things anyway or they send presents without a return address.
“Since Victoria’s pregnancy was announced in January, they have been inundated. They were sent something like a dozen pushchairs.
“Working out who had sent it and sending it back would have been a full-time job, so it’s easier to give it away. Some items have been returned and some have been boxed up and given to charity.
“There are going to be some very lucky families in Los Angeles over the next few weeks who have no idea they are using pushchairs intended for the Beckhams.”
A spokeswomen for the couple confirmed their charity donations: “We do receive a lot of unsolicited goods which are sent to deserving charities.”
