I'd love to be a real Lady, says Posh

She sat on a purple throne at her wedding and her home is nicknamed Beckingham Palace. Now all Victoria Beckham wants is a title to go with her aristocratic aspirations.
The 32-year-old is hoping reports last week that her
husband David will be knighted in the New Year Honours list for services to
football turn out to be true.
'Can you imagine? Oh, I'd love that, that would be quite fabulous,' she told Jo Whiley on Radio 1.
'It's just so camp, it's wonderful isn't it? Lady Victoria. Something like that goes in the paper and you think, that would be quite amazing. I think David's done a lot for charity.
He was heavily involved with the Olympic bid and has given a lot to his country with the football too. And I think he deserves it, but we'll see.'
In fact, the former Spice Girl, nicknamed Posh for her love of designer clothes, would not be Lady Victoria, but Lady Beck-ham. Only the daughters of marquesses, earls and dukes are addressed by their first names.
If knighted, the 31-year-old Real Madrid player would join the ranks of footballers such as Sir Bobby Charlton and Sir GeoffHurst. He received an OBE in 2003.
Despite the couple's wealth and celebrity status, Mrs Beckham said that her husband has struggled to make friends outside football now that he is no longer England captain.
She said: 'He has his friends in football, but to be honest with you, over
the years, he's been so busy with his football and also playing for England, you
don't actually get much time to socialise and for the first time, we are getting
a little bit more time, so we've got to find him some mates.'
