David and Victoria Beckham's 'panic' and battle to look younger as they approach 50

David and Victoria Beckham are reportedly determined to battle any signs of ageing as both approach their milestone birthdays.

The good-looking couple, who got hitched in 1999, appear to have reached a key chapter in their lives following their son's recent wedding.

Former Spice Girl singer and fashion designer Victoria, 48, has always been looking after her health and appearance and follows an incredibly strict diet and exercise regime.

The mum-of-four is also said to be taking nutritional pills, skin supplements and getting little tweaks here and there.

An insider told magazine Heat that husband David, who recently celebrated his 47th birthday, is starting to feel self-conscious about his looks.

"He's realised he's not looking as sexy as his wife and feels like an old man next to her," said the insider.

"It's been a shock how quickly he seems to be ageing and - despite still being super fit - he's slowing down. He's in a bit of a panic about it."

The former England Captain is now reportedly looking into different types of treatments.

"He's determined that he can look just as good as Victoria. She splashes out a fortune, doing advanced treatments three times a week - collagen, laser skin, plumping, lifting treatments - and has the top skindocs in the world," said the insider.

"She's been trying to get David to have Botox or something to smooth out his forehead for ages. He always refused before but now he's heading for 50, anything's on the table."

David and Victoria, one of the UK's most influential couples, have four children together: Brooklyn, 23, Romeo, 19, Cruz, 17 and Harper, 10.

Their eldest son recently married billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz in her family's £76 million beach house in Florida.

"It's hit them that they have a married child, with the possibility of grandchildren on their way," added the insider.
