Sch... Posh names child

Stephanie Condron12 April 2012

This is the picture that appears to reveal the name of Victoria and David Beckham's new baby - Essex.

Mother-to-be Victoria was seemingly snapped unawares with the name tattooed across her back in the same two-inch-high Gothic lettering used for David's Brooklyn tattoo, a tribute to their son.

The three-year-old was given the unusual moniker because Victoria discovered she was pregnant while in the New York district. This picture suggests the former Spice Girl was in rather less glamorous surroundings when she heard about her second pregnancy.

But closer inspection reveals the photo is actually part of a spoof advert for drinks giant Schweppes. The Sch ... You Know Who campaign has already featured a host of celebrity lookalikes seemingly caught unawares, including the Blairs, Camilla Parker Bowles and former couples Sven-Goran Eriksson and Ulrika Jonsson, and Liz Hurley and Hugh Grant.

The campaign is the work of artist Alison Jackson. She said: 'The Beckhams are a unique couple who provide a steady stream of inspiration in my work.'

TALK: A paparazzi photographer, an artist and a host of well-known figures from the celebrity, literary and arts arenas will be coming face-to-face to debate the nature of 'modern celebrity'. Alison Jackson, the BAFTA-winning artist behind the current Schweppes advertising campaign featuring look-alikes of well-known celebrities, willhost the debate.
