David Beckham snubs father at Christmas

David Beckham is excluding his father from his family's Christmas celebrations.

The Real Madrid star is still furious that gas engineer Ted Beckham wrote a book about him without his permission. Now Ted has been left off the invitation list for three festive parties being held at David and Victoria's mansion in Herts.

"Obviously I feel upset, but I'd rather not say anything really," Ted told The People. "I don't know who they've invited. I haven't got a clue."

A source close to Becks explained, "David was devastated when he found out his dad was writing the book. He can't understand why Ted never mentioned anything to him. Becks feels his dad has betrayed him."
