Beckhams head to Seychelles for their anniversary

David and Victoria Beckham are celebrating their tenth anniversary by taking a luxurious break worth 50,000 pounds at an eco-spa resort in the Seychelles.

The soccer star and the former Spice Girl exchanged vows in a lavish ceremony in Ireland on July 4, 1999.

The celebrity couple were keen to mark the occasion in style, and thus flew out to a romantic retreat in the exclusive Seychelles in the Indian Ocean.

"They may have been married for a decade but Victoria and David are like a pair of newlyweds when they get time alone. They both moved heaven and earth so they could be together for this anniversary," Contactmusic quoted a source as telling Mirror.

The couple have left Victoria's parents in charge of their three sons, Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, six, and four-year-old Cruz.

The Beckhams landed in the Seychelles on July 2, and were whisked to their exclusive accommodation by helicopter.

Their island boasts pristine white sands and beach villas, with over 250 staff.

The source added: "To keep out any prying eyes, the stars will have a private plunge pool and thatched massage gazebo overlooking the sea. And a personal chef is on call to prepare meals around the clock."

David and Victoria are set to stay at the resort for 10 days.

Earlier, the couple were expected to celebrate the anniversary at Sir Richard Branson's exclusive Necker Island.
