EMILY PRESCOTT: Victoria Beckham’s ‘clear the air talks’ between the partners of her two sons, Brooklyn and Romeo, have so far failed

Are Victoria Beckham’s hopes of keeping her extended family in trouble?

I’m only asking because there are rumors that there is tension between the partners of their two eldest sons.

Sources tell me that Posh’s attempts to set up an open-the-air girls’ dinner with Brooklyn’s new wife Nicola and Romeo’s model friend Mia Regan have failed.

Meanwhile, heiress Nicola, 27, and Mia, 19, have committed the ultimate sin – by rarely acknowledging each other on Instagram.

Maybe Posh needs to get the boys in a room together and read the riot to them?

Left-wing artist Jake Chapman has told how he was about to forcibly remove David Cameron from his London exhibition, which was taking place this month, when the former Tory PM showed up uninvited.

Wisely he changed his mind and said: “He had a burly looking ex-military with him, so I figured putting him in a headlock would hurt me more than him!”

There are certain perks that come with the job of Commons Speaker – a grand grace apartment in the Palace of Westminster is one of them.

But three years after taking on the role, Sir Lindsay Hoyle and his wife Catherine are still waiting for the work to be done before finally settling in.

“The house has not been properly maintained for a long time,” an associate of Sir Lindsay’s tells me.

Although former Speaker John Bercow spent £45,000 of taxpayers’ money refurbishing the house in 2009, it seems the fixtures need to be in better, er, order.
