David and Victoria Beckham may have taken a step towards never having to make a home insurance claim again, after employing former members of the SAS as members of security staff.

Their £2.5 million mansion - known as Beckingham Palace by some - has a number of stringent safety measures to protect their valuable belongings.

When workers visit the estate, they must now sign in and out of each individual room they visit.

The clampdown on security follows news that the pair were worried their possessions had appeared on online auction site eBay without their knowledge.

Items reported to have been featured on the website included a pair of David's boots and some of Victoria's garments from when she was a member of the Spice Girls, with whom she recorded hits such as Who Do You Think You Are? and Wannabe.
