DAVID Beckham was left with a huge BALD patch after suffering a DIY haircut blunder - with Victoria even admitting 'it looks terrible'.
The former England captain, 50, had been attempting to recreate his iconic buzz cut at home when the head of his clippers fell off mid-shave, leaving a glaring bald spot on top of his head.

David had already trimmed most of his hair down to stubble, meaning there was little he could do to hide the exposed patch of skin.
His wife Victoria shared a video of the aftermath on Instagram, reacting blunty while showing the uneven crop.
She told him: 'It does not look good. I'm going to always be honest with you. It looks terrible.'
The style was a throwback to the skinhead look Beckham famously debuted during a Premier League match against Leicester City in 2000.
He's returned to it several times over the years, and recently named it his favourite look during an interview with close friend Gary Neville on The Overlap podcast.
He said: "I always like the skinhead. I always loved the skinhead, because it was easy and you didn't have to do anything with it.'
Away from the jokes and laughter, David and Victoria have been left in agony over their explosive family feud.
The Beckham brothers are in the 'Gen Z version of World War Three' after Romeo and Cruz blocked Brooklyn on social media.
The younger boys are accused of turning their backs on Brooklyn for good, and sending the family deeper into crisis.
Model Brooklyn, 26, and wife Nicola, 30, are said to be 'blindsided' after learning of the snub.

A source said: 'Blocking or unfollowing someone on Instagram is like the Gen Z version of World War Three. It's a sad new low.
'But the truth is, Brooklyn has cut out his parents David and Victoria from his life and it's the same with Romeo and Cruz.
"Even when the family have reached out to Brooklyn they have been ignored.
'He's not had contact for months and it feels clear to them that he doesn't want to make amends.'
The feud, which The Sun understands started over money, has been bubbling for several months.
Yesterday it was initially reported that Brooklyn and Nicola had unfollowed Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20.
But those close to Brooklyn said this was not true.
A friend said: 'Brooklyn had no idea until he read about it online. It's possible Romeo and Cruz blocked them, which would make it appear as him no longer following the brothers
'He and Nicola certainly didn't unfollow them or block them — they're as confused as anyone else.
'The first they heard about it was when it was being reported on.'

Rumours emerge of a falling out between Brooklyn and his younger brother Romeo, reportedly due to Romeo's new girlfriend, DJ Kim Turnbull, who allegedly had a past connection with Brooklyn.
Reports surface that the Beckham parents are "hurt and disappointed" that Brooklyn is "playing no part in family life." Sources claim that tensions between Brooklyn and Nicola and his parents are "definitely not beyond repair."

Brooklyn UNFOLLOWS his brothers Romeo and Cruz just 24 hours after his birthday message to Harper. Nicola quickly follows suit and also ditches the Beckham bros from her Instagram following. Romeo and Cruz are now also no longer following Brooklyn.
Shortly after Brooklyn learned of his brothers' snub, Romeo reposted Justin Bieber's new song Walking Away on his Instagram stories with the caption: 'Yup.'

A day earlier Brooklyn posted a photo of him, Nicola and sister Harper for the latter's 14th birthday.
Those close to Brooklyn denied this was partly meant as an olive branch to his parents. One friend said: 'There is too much water under the bridge.'
Brooklyn had publicly snubbed Victoria on Mother's Day this March, and failed to attend any of David's 50th birthday celebrations in May.
Brooklyn's pal insisted: 'Just because he and Nicola love Harper and want to show their affection, it doesn't mean they're trying to make amends with the family.'
A separate source said: 'Brooklyn was always very close to Romeo and Cruz. They'd stay in touch even as they grew up and started following different career paths and travelling.
'It has been very difficult for David and Victoria to watch their sons grow apart as family means everything to them.'

Madonna pays tribute to Cher in a racy outfit as she goes braless in a semi sheer lace bodysuit

Madonna paid tribute to Cher as she posed for a series of photos wearing a racy outfit on Thursday. The Queen of Pop, 66, went braless in a semi sheer lace bodysuit and stockings with one of Cher's most iconic quotes etched on the thigh. The tights from Saint Sass read: 'Mom, I am a rich man,' with Madonna teaming the statement piece with her lingerie-inspired look. She added a pair of classic stiletto heels and accessorised with a faux fur stole and mesh opera gloves. Speaking in a 1995 interview Cher discussed settling down and recalled: 'My mom said to me: "You know, sweetheart, one day you should settle down and marry a rich man." 'And I said: "Mom, I am a rich man."' Cher continued: 'Yes, it's a man's world, but that's all right because they're making a total mess of it. We're chipping away at their control, taking the parts we want. Some women think it's a difficult task, but it's not. 'Women have to harness their power — its absolutely true. It's just learning not to take the first no. And if you can't go straight ahead, you go around the corner.' 'Women are the real architects of society.' Last month, Madonna sent fans into a frenzy as she teased her upcoming new music in new social media snaps. The Queen of Pop confirmed earlier this year that her upcoming album will be a sequel to her hit 2005 album Confessions On A Dance Floor. Sharing an update to Instagram, she posted a behind-the-scenes sneak peek of her time recording in the studio in London, alongside producer Stuart Price. Sharing an array of snaps, Madonna was seen in the recording studio, putting on a busty display in a lace cami top while hard at work recording her new tracks. Madonna could also be seen wearing a t-shirt which said 'Mother' as she strolled around the Big Smoke. Sharing photos from the studio in February, Madonna was seen sitting behind a drum kit, in others she sings into a microphone and in still others she vamps for the camera in the way only Madonna can. 'My Valentine's Day gift to all my fans is to let you know I'm putting my heart and soul into my new music and I can't wait to share it with you!' she wrote. The new album will be her first since 2019's Madame X.

Terry's Chocolate is launching a ‘top secret flavour'

The Terry's Chocolate Orange is a British staple. While they're often reserved for stockings at Christmas, the treat is available all year round. And though many fans insist you 'can't beat' the original flavour, that hasn't stopped Terry's from trying. From mint chocolate balls to chocolate orange truffles and white chocolate treats, the chocolate brand has tested a range of new flavours over the years. And now it's teasing a 'top secret' new recipe – but fans are convinced they already know what it is. Terry's shared the news on its Instagram account with a picture of a golden envelope. 'Sealed, secret, and seriously delicious. Not long now…' the caption read. Naturally, chocolate lovers flooded the comments with guesses – the majority seemed to agree on one possibility. Pistachio. User @welliesandwaffles asked: 'It's going to be pistachio, isn't it?' While @ wrote: 'I feel like it's pistachio.' 'Don't tell me Pistachios,' @charlottejade_ added. Some were on board with the potential new flavour. User @amy_f_wills said that while the original chocolate orange 'cannot be beaten', the 'only other flavour worth doing is pistachio.' It's not a wild guess. Pistachio chocolate has been everywhere this year – largely thanks to the Dubai chocolate trend that exploded on TikTok. Dubai chocolate, which is filled with crispy knafeh, pistachio cream and tahini spread, was first launched by Dubai-based firm Fix Dessrt Chocolatier in 2021. But the sweet treat really took off after influencer Maria Vehera shared a TikTok video of herself trying it, racking up over 120 million views. Suddenly, everyone wanted a bite. The trend sparked a global demand and has even been blamed for contributing to a global pistachio shortage, as brands rushed to create their own pistachio-inspired treats. Lindt launched its own Dubai chocolate-style bar while Aldi launched pistachio creme jars, while plenty of other pistachio products filled supermarket aisles. Still, not everyone is thrilled with another pistachio product. 'As long as it's not based on Dubai chocolate. Sick of hearing of it now,' @polly_199131 wrote under Terry's Chocolate Instagram post. Others suggested the secret flavour could be Caramel, which some fans were quick to point out is already in stores. User @Uknewestfoods commented: 'This can not be the caramel Terry's, which is literally already out in shops? More Trending 'Is it caramel that is already out?', asked @woofidin. The flavour was spotted on the Snack News & Reviews Facebook page last week. It doesn't contain any orange flavour at all. The Caramel treat is only available at Co-op and doesn't seem to be available online yet. Fans said it was 'delicious'. View More » Metro contacted Terry's to see what the potential new flavour could be, but so far they've remained tight-lipped. Still, that isn't stopping fans from speculating in the comments.

The Sun exclusively revealed how the pair - who met in 2019 while playing brothers in the ITV soap - walked down the aisle in a £100k ceremony. 3 Max and Kris pulled out all the stops for their wedding this week 3 They hosted a Max Ball for the beginning of their evening 3 Girls Aloud icon Nadine Coyle performed at Kris' Kiki Klub for the afters The lads celebrated their nuptials with a lavish multi-day wedding at the exclusive Wilderness Reserve in Suffolk where costs start at a whopping £65,000. But after an incredible day that saw the couple exchange vows and then enter their wedding reception in an explosion of rainbow smoke, they sat down for an elaborate meal with their 100 plus guests. Celebrities in attendance included Code of Silence breakout star Kieron Moore and Love Island's Callum Jones. A full band played while the guests tucked into their meals outdoors with huge chandeliers keeping them all illuminated. Handwritten and personalised notes to each guest were laid out along with some wedding favours including Jo Malone goodies and Charbonnel et Walker truffles. But it was after the meal finished that things got started with the couple hosting their own version of The Met Ball - The Max Ball - with its own swanky red carpet. And as the sun went down, Kris' Kiki Klub took over with an incredible night club atmosphere with an A-list girlbander taking to the stage. The couple surprised their guests with a performance from Girls Aloud icon Nadine Coyle. A source said: 'Everyone went mad when the music began and she walked out on stage. 'They knew Max and Kris were going all out for the wedding but to get pop royalty like Nadine Coyle to perform was next level. Emmerdale's Max Parker reveals he's engaged to his on-screen brother 'The couple even ended up on stage as Nadine's backing dancers as she belted out hit after hit.' The Sun exclusively revealed how the pair's relationship developed in 2020 after they both appeared on Emmerdale playing brothers Luke and Lee Posner. Real-life soap couples Soaps are renowned for their sweet and scandalous romances – but it's not just in scripted storylines where love is blossoming. A number of our favourite small-screen actors have fallen for co-stars and soapland rivals when the cameras have stopped rolling. Max Parker and Kris Mochrie Despite playing brothers Luke and Lee Posner on Emmerdale, the pair never actually shared any scenes together. But the pair still fell in love after meeting on set. Max and Kris got together in 2020, moving in together later than same year and got engaged in 2022. In a sweet Instagram post, the couple confirmed they're planning a 2025 wedding. Beth Cordingly and Ian Kelsey Beth, who plays Ruby Fox-Miligan, announced her love for her co-star Ian Kelsey, who played Dean Glover, shortly after she joined Emmerdale at the beginning of 2024. 'I am very in love with Ian and very happy. I think it really does work him being an actor too. He has been so fantastic," she gushed. Laura Norton and Mark Jordan Kerry Wyatt and Daz Eden actors Laura and Mark met on the set of Emmerdale in 2014. The couple, who got engaged in 2018, told Loose Women they spent a long time deciding whether they should "just stay as friends." Although it seems they were meant to be and the pair now share two children together. Zoe Henry and Jeff Hordley Emmerdale favourites Zoe and Jeff, who play Rhonda Goskirk and Cain Dingle met at drama college in 1994 and have been together ever since. While working together might be too much for some couples, that's definitely not the case for Zoe and Jeff. Zoe previously told The Sun: "Working on the same show as Jeff also helps because if one of us is having a bad day then the other will completely understand." Lesley Dunlop and Chris Chittell Lesley and Chris are another Dales romantic success story. Unlike some of the other soap stars, the pair who play Brenda Walker and Eric Pollard, are together on and off screen, officially tying the knot in 2016. They also adore working together, but have clear home-work boundaries. "We make a point of not talking about Emmerdale when we're at home, though – that would be just too sad, wouldn't it?" Chris revealed. Sally Carman and Joe Duttine Abi Franklin and Tim Metcalfe actors Sally and Joe got together after meeting on the set of Coronation Street in 2017 and they tied the knot in July 2022. But unlike some of the Emmerdale stars, Sally and Joe prefer that their characters don't interact much. Sally previously admitted it "would be horrendous" to work on a storyline with Joe because "he's too funny." Anthony Cotton and Peter Eccleston Sean Tully may have been unlucky in love on the cobbles, but in real life Antony's met his Prince Charming. The soap star started dating long-term partner Peter in 2005, after they met when he was working as an assistant props buyer on Corrie. Jane Danson and Robert Beck Corrie favourite Jane Danson tied the knot with soap star Robert Beck in 2005. The actress, who plays Leanne Battersby, shares two children, Harry and Sam, with the former Brookside star. During their marriage, Robert has also done a stint in Weatherfield playing criminal Jimmy Dockerson. Caroline Harding and Chris Gascoyne Chris, who played pub landlord Peter Barlow, married soap star Caroline in 2002. Although she is best known as an Emmerdale star, Caroline did visit her husband at work when she did a two-episode stint as doctor on the Manchester soap in 2020. The couple share a daughter called Belle, plus two children, Pip and Freddie from Caroline's previous marriage. Nadine Mulkerrin and Rory Douglas Speed Nadine Mulkerrin, and Rory Doulas Speed are known for their Hollyoaks alter egos Cleo McQueen and Joel Dexter. The loved-up pair got engaged on a December 2018 trip to Amsterdam - just over a year after they announced they were dating. They now share two kids, Reggie and Dougie. Sophie Austin and Shayne Ward Former Hollyoaks star Sophie, whose best known for playing villain Lindsay Butterfield, was introduced to singer and ex-Corrie star Shayne through mutual friends. She gave birth to their daughter Willow in December 2016 and they welcomed a son in 2022. Max quit the soap in 2022 and has gone on to have success in a host of other shows including Vampire Academy and Doctor Who and will soon star in Netflix's next big dramatic comedy from the late legendary producer Norman Lear, Boots, later this year. Kris meanwhile, who first found fame on Brookside, has starred in Vera and The Long Shadow while also building an events business that boasts some huge clients.
