Beckham banned from Spice Girls show

David Beckham has been banned from watching the first Spice Girls reunion gig by his wife Victoria.

The England footballer was originally planning to attend the comeback performance in Vancouver, but his partner now claims she will be too nervous if he's in the audience.

He told The Sun: "One minute Victoria is saying she wants me there and then it's 'No, don't come to the first show, as we'll all be too nervous'.

"I think I'll be at the show a couple of days later in San Jose and have the boys with me. And I know Victoria will ring me as soon as the first show ends.

"She says the rehearsals have gone amazingly well."

The Spice Girls' tour kicks off on December 2 in Vancouver.
