They might be worth £115million, but the Beckham family are still watching the purse strings.
According to reports, Victoria called in a super accountant to look at the family's finances because she feared the high-spending lifestyle was inappropriate when other mortals (like us) are having to make our own sandwiches etc, particularly since they allegedly employ around 50 members of staff worldwide when they mainly live in LA.
Talking to The Sun, an insider claimed:
"This very no-nonsense accountant gave it to Vic straight and said, 'You CAN afford to employ all of these people. But why the hell DO you?'
"Once the accountant pointed out that level of staffing was not required Vic pushed the button. "There has been a large downsize. David and Victoria are multi-millionaires but that doesn't mean they have to waste money - and they were haemorrhaging it."
According the the newspaper, a cleaner has been made redundant and the chief gardener must now double up by driving the family to the airport to save on chauffeurs, while six other gardeners have been laid off at their huge estate in Bargemon in the south of France.
We're weeping for them, imagining how hard it must be for the family this morning without their normal army of helpers...
