'Fake social media news’
Twitter has exploded today with nasty rumours that power couple David and Victoria were set to announce they are getting divorced.
The unconfirmed said David Beckham had cheated on his wife with his daughter's teacher, who has since fallen pregnant.
Such was the extent of the rumours, betting agencies had even begun offering odds on who David's next partner would be.
Anyone else hearing that the Beckham’s are divorcing as David Beckham has got his daughter’s teacher pregnant? Wonder if they have got a super injunction as no one is going on record confirming? #RomanceIsDead ?

However, thankfully the couple have come out and addressed the rumours, shutting them down:
Their statement read:
‘There is no statement due or divorce. ‘This is just fake social media news.
‘This is all very bizarre and an embarrassing waste of time.
‘There is no statement due, no divorce, and a lot of Chinese whispers and fake social media news.’
Phew! The source of the rumour is unknown... but it just goes to show the power the internet has to spread a rumour around!
