VICTORIA Beckham has shared a sweet snap of husband David cuddling their three dogs, as they enjoy the countryside scenery amid row with neighbours over planning permission.
The famous couple have applied to build a gatehouse for two round-the-clock security guards at the entrance to beef up protection at their luxury farmhouse estate.
Looking handsome in a green jumper, tan cord trousers, trainers and a flat cap, David beamed as he held his three beautiful cocker spaniels.
With the rolling Cotswold countryside around them and a stunning evening sky behind, David and his dogs looked like they were posing for a magazine spread.
Proud wife Victoria posted the snap to her 28.3 million Instagram followers, captioning the photo: “Family time with @davidbeckham and… the girls! Kisses Olive, Fig and Sage xx”
David, Victoria and three of their four children have been isolating themselves at the Cotswold country manor during lockdown.
And after spending so much time there the couple are keen to beef up security by adding a gatehouse for two round-the-clock security guards at the entrance.
However neighbours in the upmarket Oxfordshire enclave believe the former England captain and his ex-Spice Girl wife are ruining the ambience of the picturesque village and have objected to the latest building works.
One opponent, John Walsby, claimed the Beckhams’ latest efforts were “totally out of keeping” with the area.
He said: “Farms and agricultural buildings do not have gatehouses and security huts.”
The Fort Knox-style plans also include an underground getaway tunnel, according to paperwork that has been filed with officials.
In their proposals, David and Victoria claimed the gatehouse would “improve security for occupants” of the mansion and its surrounding grounds.
David, 45, and Victoria, 46, have been spending lockdown in their Cotswolds home with three of their children, Romeo, 17, Cruz, 15, and Harper, eight.
The Beckhams’ plans come as several footballers take further steps to protect their homes.
They include Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Dele Alli, 24, who was held at knifepoint with girlfriend Ruby Mae at their Hertfordshire home last month.
A host of stars have also opted to get guard dogs in a bid to deter intruders.
David, 45, and Victoria, 46, also want to add another three bays to their garage, increasing the building from four bays to seven.
The Beckhams’ application and the new objections are currently being reviewed by councillors, who will rule on the project in the coming weeks.
