Phew! Yesterday, we thought our lives were going to be changed forever with a Twitter post claiming that David and Victoria Beckham were about to announce their split.
Frank PR managing director Andrew Bloch posted this on the social networking site:“I am hearing from a number of sources that Victoria and David Beckham are due to announce their separation in a few hours.”
However, the couple’s publicists moved swiftly to deny the claims dismissing them as ‘nonsense’.
Simon Oliviera, David Beckham’s long-time publicist, then tweeted Bloch saying: “Didn’t know you were the new Perez Hilton. I think I would be aware of that, utter nonsense.
“Have a word with your sources.”
Bloch, who has since pointed out that his posting was personal, not work-related, later updated his Twitter page to say: “I have confirmation direct from Team Beckham that the separation rumour is “utter nonsense”. Very good news indeed.”
But the damage was already done, with several websites and blogs repeating the rumour.
Gosh! This was a really bad move from Andrew Bloch, he looks really silly now- unless the rumours are true that is!
