Nine people have been arrested in connection with an alleged conspiracy to kidnap Victoria Beckham and seek a Ј5m ransom. Victoria Beckham - married to Manchester United and England footballer David Beckham - said she was in "absolute and total shock" at the revelations. The News of the World said undercover reporters had infiltrated a gang of art thieves and discovered they were also planning to kidnap the former Spice Girl. She told the newspaper: "It's clear these people were serious and that, of course, has scared the life out of me. "It's terrifying to think that someone would want to do that to you and your children." She said she would be talking to her security team, adding: "But if people want to do this to my family how can you be 100% sure you'll prevent it?"
