Picture it:

David
on July 4th - which also happens to be the couple's 12th wedding anniversary.
A headline-hogging hat trick of fairytale proportions. If that doesn't give you a serious case of the warm and fuzzies, nothing will.
Rumours have been rampant that the 37-year-old singer/fashion designer booked herself in for a caesarean section at a hospital in California on Independence Day - one of America's biggest national holidays.
Twitter has been buzzing with reports that Posh welcomed her first daughter on Monday. Congratulatory messages abound for the proud parents, coupled with the news that the Beckhams' latest mini-me was named
Felicity
, and weighed in at 5lb 8oz.
Compounding the speculation was David's comments during a press conference for his LA Galaxy team at the weekend, where he appeared to suggest their baby girl would be arriving on July 4.
"Obviously we got married on July 4, 12 years ago, Monday, so it's a special day for us, it always has been and always will be," he told reporters.
He also dished on the prospect of raising his first baby girl in their male-dominated household, saying: "We're really excited. You know, it's a whole new different thing for us. To have so much pink in the house, lilac in the house, and dresses... All the clothes [are] ready, the room's ready , so we're all ready for it and all excited," he added.
The couple are already parents to 12-year-old
Brooklyn
, 8-year-old
Romeo
and 6-year-old
Cruz
.
False alarm!
Despite reports that Posh has given birth, sources say that she's not due until next week.
A spokesperson for the Beckhams has also issued a statement to the
MailOnline
, trashing the birth reports.
"The rumours are rubbish, Victoria has not had the baby but she will be giving birth soon," said the spokesperson.
David's publicist
Simon Oliveira
also took to Twitter to address the rumours.
He tweeted: "Contrary to certain reports, David and Victoria Beckham's baby is not due today and that was never the case."
A spokesperson for the Beckhams also told the
that Victoria is still a week away from giving birth.
"She still has a little while to go," a rep for Victoria
.
Word is that Victoria's parents
Jackie
and
Tony
, her sister
Louise
and brother
Christian
are flying out to join the couple this week.
How exciting. It won't be long before they're knee-deep in designer nappies and uncle
Elton John
will be on the blower comparing bambino notes, probing Posh on the $64,000 question: What have they called the wee baby girl?
Well, hanker back to March and you'll recall that reports suggested Victoria would like to call her little girl...
Luna
.
The speculation hinged on a comment the former Spice Girl made in 2004.
"I love the word Luna. I know it's a girl's name - so maybe for the next baby," she said.
Folklore has it Victoria was set on naming son Cruz Luna before they knew the sex of their third child.
Other names thrown into the ring:
*
Santa
- inspired by Santa Monica, near where the Beckhams live. "Posh thinks Santa Beckham has a lovely ring to it and wants something unique," a source told
The Sun
earlier this year. A rep for the couple mercifully scoffed the report, saying, "This is simply tabloid nonsense." The baby isn't just for Christmas.
*
Justin Bieber Beckham
- Son Romeo's suggestion. No comment.
*
Coco
- after legendary French fashion designer
Coco Chanel
. But there's a snag - they've already used that name for their pampered British bulldog pooch.
A source told
The Mirror
earlier this year: "For years Victoria planned on calling her first girl Coco, after iconic French fashion designer, Coco Chanel.
"But after four boys, and a gap of almost six years after her last son, Cruz, she simply decided she would never be blessed with a daughter and decided to give the name to the couple's female bulldog.
"The couple's second choice was
Twiggy
but, again, when Victoria got a miniature Yorkshire terrier a few years ago, she decided to christen it this."
Oh, the scandal!
What do you think Posh and Becks will name their baby?
Hilton's moved on
New couple alert:
Paris Hilton
and...
Hangover
director
Todd Phillips
.
It must be love! The socialite certainly doesn't seem to have a hangover (sorry) from her split from
Cy Waits
.
The heiress called it quits with her club owner beau last month.
"We're not together anymore. I love him and we remain really good friends ... I feel like the relationship ran its course and we'll see what happens," Hilton told TV host
George Lopez
on Lopez Tonight.
The
World According To Paris
star also claimed that she planned to stay single for some time.
"I'm not looking for anyone," she told E! Online. "I really want to focus on myself and get to know myself and be in Malibu with my girls and just enjoy the summer. So no, no-one. I'm not looking for anyone."
Hilton added: "I've never been single in my life. It's the first time, so I just really want to get to know myself."
And while she's on an
Oprah Winfrey
-esque voyage of self-discovery, she might as well have a bloke riding pillion. One is such a lonely number.
The juggernaut that is Hilton and Phillips has been snapped locking lips, canoodling and playing tonsil tennis on no fewer than three occasions of late.
Hilton was snapped planting a smacker on Phillips' kisser at a Hollywood nightclub on Thursday. TMZ has the pictorial evidence to support this yarn.
.
Get a room.
On Sunday the new pair was spotted while out for lunch in Malibu. Followed by a steamy clinch at an Independence Day weekend beach house bash later that day.
More Hilton lip-locking
.
A snitch who witnessed the spectacle, said: "They were getting very friendly and they didn't mind who saw.
"Paris couldn't keep his hands off Todd, and he was loving the attention.
"He looked like the cat who got the cream."
TMI.
Hilton's 'I'm over you faster than a New York minute' shenanigans will undoubtedly be followed by some swift action from Waits' people.
Stand by for paparazzi snaps of Waits getting cozy with a new gal pal, who's thrice as fabulous as Hilton, and nowhere near as high maintenance!
And you know what this means, don't you? Guess who'll be making a cameo in
The Hangover 3
