Spice Girls, Liz Hurley to attend christening of Beckham’s sons

British film actress Liz Hurley and her industrialist friend Arun Nayar are expected to attend the star-studded christening of sons of soccer star David Beckham and his wife Victoria.

A private chapel was constructed for the occasion in the grounds of the family’s Hertfordshire mansion, known as ‘Buckingham Palace’.

David and Victoria have chosen Sir Elton John and his partner, David Furnish, as godparents to Brooklyn, five and Romeo, two.

Besides Liz Hurley and Arun Nayar, other guests expected at the lavish ceremony tomorrow include Greg and Lucy Rusedski and David’s former Manchester United teammate Gary Neville.

Other invitees include Hollywood star Tom Cruise, Soccer star Wayne Rooney and Coleen McLoughlin and England soccer coach Sven Goran Eriksson and Nancy Dell’Olio.

Victoria’s former Spice Girl bandmates - Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton, Melanie Brown and Melanie Chisholm - have all been invited.

Victoria, who is expecting her third child in March, is understood to have planned the ceremony.

Although Brooklyn and Romeo will have a traditional Christian ceremony, the chapel appears to have two Buddhist shrines at its entrance.
