kate beckinsaleKate Beckinsale has said she’s not looking forward to her nine year old daughter Lily discovering boys - but she’d be more willing to accept a certain Beckham into the family.

Speaking at the Glamour Awards this week, she said: “I am dreading the day Lily brings home a boy.”

“But she and the Beckham boys get on really well. So if she did have to have a boyfriend, then I suppose Brooklyn [also, nine] would get my seal of approval!”

Kate & husband Len Wiseman have been spotted socialising with David & Victoria Beckham on a number of occasions over the past few months.

A source close to both families explained: “They’ve got a lot in common - ex-pats in LA with kids the same age - and feel they can really relax together.”
