Posh Snubs England Wife’s Euro 2004 Hotel

The People reports England’s real-life footballers’ wives will enjoy a $900,000 stay in a stunning luxury hotel during Euro 2004 – except for Victoria Beckham, as her soccer star husband David said she is just “too busy” to attend the tournament. The former Spice Girl will turn up only if her hubby’s team reaches the final in Portugal – and even then she will make her own accommodation arrangements. A source said: “This is probably the first time so many partners have had the chance to be close to the squad for an entire tournament. England coach Sven Goran Eriksson hopes that letting the players have their loved ones nearby will help keep them out of trouble and improve team morale.” The full story at people.co.uk has since been removed.
