The Beckhams have hired a £1,000 a day butler to help them unwrap the copious number of Christmas presents that they have to deal with, reports the Mirror.
This new butler comes in the wake of the previous one giving up, sick of Victoria's incessant demands.
A source told the newspaper: "After such a turbulent year, they're determined the festive period is going to be devoted to family.
"They want to spend as much time together as possible and prove they're still a strong family unit.
"The person they've hired is one of the best in his field. In fact, he was originally booked by the Osbournes to spend Christmas with them, but the Beckhams really wanted him so they upped their offer."
As well as opening presents, the butler will also be charged with the responsibility of ensuring thay mobile phones are switched off for the sake of keeping peace in the Beckham household.
