LOADED David Beckham has forked out £400 on his family’s five-a-day at his local deli following a rift with his Cotswolds neighbours.
The football superstar was seen splashing the cash in the quaint Oxfordshire deli Mrs Bumbles of Burford with his daughter Harper.
The 45-year-old was seen in good spirits being ‘charming’ as he spunked a load of cash in the local family-run store, Mrs Bumbles of Burford.
According to onlookers, David was full of charm and wowed other customers despite his run-in with his neighbours.
A source told the MailOnline: “David spent £400 on fruit and vegetables during one shop at Mrs Bumbles Deli.
“It’s now become one of his favourite spots as he’s returned with Harper four times in three weeks to restock on his fresh fruit and veg.”
Onlookers noticed the special bond between the father and daughter as they shopped together.
The source continued: “Harper is very much a daddy’s girl and the trip was definitely a time for them to bond together.
“The owners were over the moon after he spent so much – they told staff not to take photos in case that stopped David from coming back.”
The famous pair are at war with their neighbours over plans to beef up security at their farmhouse estate.
The couple have applied to build a gatehouse for two round-the-clock security guards at the entrance.
But 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.
The Beckhams’ application and the new objections are currently being reviewed by councillors, who will rule on the project in the coming weeks.
David and Victoria, 46, have been spending lockdown in their Cotswolds home with three of their children, Romeo, 17, Cruz, 15, and Harper.
