Victoria BeckhamVictoria BeckhamDavid Beckham missed wife Victoria's birthday again this year - but had an unusual way of making up for it.

On the occasion of her 31st birthday, he decided the best present was to fly her London hairdresser out to Madrid to give the new mum a posh up-do as a treat.

Posh had a family lunch with parents Tony and Jacqui and the kids. Afterwards she had her hair done while her parents took Brooklyn and Romeo to a local park.

David was 200 miles away playing a Real Madrid game against Valencia.

"David was hoping to take her out if he could get back to Madrid early enough," a source told The Sun.

Last year Posh spent her 30th birthday without Becks in London, in the aftermath of the Rebecca Loos scandal.
