It seems Spice Girl-turned-clothes designer Victoria Beckham is feeling rather emotional as she prepares for her only daughter to enter her teenage years. In fact, the 50-year-old is already dreading the day she and husband David, 48, have an empty nest, a source has told new.

Neither him or Victoria can believe that she’s going to be 13 in July and she definitely won’t be a baby any more and lots of changes are coming.
“They’ve really noticed a difference in Harper over the past few months and she’s started taking more of an interest in her appearance. I think she’s going to have a strict curfew and will have to be in constant contact with them.”
When it comes to her children, Victoria is particularly sensitive about watching her only daughter grow up. “She was so desperate for a baby girl and when Harper arrived
