Beckhams hire housekeeper from Buckingham Palace

Celebrity couple David and Victoria Beckham have hired a former Buckingham Palace worker as their new housekeeper.

The duo has recruited the male worker from the British royal household to help with the general running of their home worth £40 million (Dh251.5 million). Victoria is said to be “delighted” to have him on board, reports contactmusic.com.

“They needed a new housekeeper and, hands down, he was the best applicant. His CV was pretty impressive and, obviously, having a former Buckingham Palace member of staff is quite a boon.

“Victoria is delighted, and he is fitting in really well with the family,” a source told the Daily Mirror.

David and Victoria have also given the former footman’s salary a significant boost from his previous £15,000 a month pay cheque.

As well as general tidying, cleaning, ironing and dusting, it is said the new employee will also lend a hand with walking and grooming the dogs.
