The angry phone call that revealed David Beckham's anguish over stay-away Posh

EXCLUSIVE: The angry phone call that revealed David Beckham  anguish over stay-away Posh

Becks: I want you here now!

By Rav Singh
DAVID BECKHAM put his mobile phone to his ear. "I want you here now," he said angrily. "I need my family with me."

Becks was making the crunch call just 24 hours after he and Victoria had issued a statement saying their marriage was NOT in crisis.

But the tone of his voice surprised fellow guests at Madrid's Santo Mauro hotel.

They heard him say: "I've had enough. I'm not taking No for an answer. I need my family with me.

"It's not fair on me.

"I'm trying everything to keep it together."

One hotel guest said: "He was very angry and looked very upset. He's usually very calm and polite to everybody. It was completely out of character."

Later that evening Beckham made another revealing call to a close friend as he made his way to a birthday party for Real Madrid team-mate Ronaldo.

"I don't know what to do," Becks said into his phone.

"I want it back as it was. I don't like us arguing all the time.

"I just want to forget the bad times. But I don't know what she's going to do next.

"Things seem to be getting worse."

Chatted

That night, Monday, Becks stayed out until 3.30am—partying with his Real Madrid pals and a string of stunning girls.

At the bash Beckham was said to have chatted to former model Esther Canadas.

Leggy blonde Esther, 27, who is 5ft 10in and a perfect 36-24-36, starred in The Thomas Crown Affair alongside Pierce Brosnan.

The previous evening Esther was said to have been seen at the same nightclub as Becks plus team-mates Robert Carlos, Casillas and Raul Bravo.

That outing prompted Spanish talk show Con T de Tarde to claim Esther was a clear rival to Victoria.

The show alleged that it was "no coincidence" that Esther was out with Beckham.

But a spokeswoman for the leggy model insisted there was nothing to the rumours. She said: "They have met a couple of times, but I don't think they are even that good friends. Esther doesn't feel she has to answer to the allegations. She is innocent."

But another Spanish beauty, Nuria Bermudez, seemed to have far from innocent intentions when she turned up univited at Becks' hotel on Monday night.

Brazen Nuria, 23—known as the Spanish Jordan—claims to have bedded half the Real team, including some of its top stars.

The diehard Real fan has the club badge tattooed on her belly— and has bragged she plans to bed Beckham. She has warned: "Be scared, Victoria. You should be trembling. David Beckham is gorgeous and such a gentleman.

"He will be targeted by women wherever he goes, but I will be first in the queue."

Last weekend Victoria was also out partying — in London. She was photographed with record producer Damon Dash.

But on Tuesday Victoria arrived in Madrid—and dutifully pecked David on the cheek as they tried to show the world there was nothing wrong with their marriage.

But that evening the couple were apart again as Posh went to the Spanish Elle Style Awards.

According to partygoers her face was like thunder and she made sure reporters were banned from the bash. One guest said: "She didn't look happy at all.

"In fact, she was very moody. Her look seemed to warn people to stay out of her way."

The following night the couple again made an open display of their affection when they went for dinner in the Salamanca area.

But just 24 hours later Victoria surprised friends by flying BACK to London. She attended the Lycra British Style Awards to pick up the Best Stylish Singer gong.

A source close to David said: "I can't believe she flew back after what's going on with their marriage. You'd think she would be at his side, not at a party. She's not promoting anything, so it's not as if she had any commitments.

"Things just don't seem to be right with the pair, which is very sad.

"Having said that they have to make time to see each other it doesn't seem to be happening."

David has now been in Spain for 89 days since his move from Manchester United to Real Madrid.

Posh has been with him there for only 35 of those days.

The source continued: "Apart from their marriage it seems Posh's comeback pop career is going pear-shaped.

"Damon Dash is in dispute with her record company Telstar who are arguing about paying him.

"He's fuming and has demanded he gets his money.

"This is the last thing Posh needs. Her personal life isn't rosy at the moment and her career is going the same way.

"Something is going wrong every day at the moment for her.

"Even her publicity stunts are backfiring.

Launches

"She thought coming back here on Thursday for the fashion show and putting on a brave face would kill the rumours.

"In fact they've got worse because people are asking, ‘Why is she back?'"

A source at Telstar explained: "The company spent around £500,000 on the album which had to be shelved.

"Now they want us to foot the bill."

Posh's new manager Simon Fuller is said to be unhappy about the style of the album—and wants her to record a normal pop disc.

The source said: "We may have to start all over again. This will delay her album once again while more money is being spent."

Pop svengali Fuller, who has signed Posh and David as a global brand, is planning a huge international launch for her album, when it's finally released.

The source continued: "There's going to be launches in London, New York and Paris.

"It will not be an ordinary launch, though. There's going to be a fashion-cum-pop concert.

"They've been in talks to get Liz Hurley and Elton John to model the clothes.

"Meanwhile Victoria will perform at the end of each show they do. This hasn't been done before, and with her status she could get any celeb to help her launch the record."
