The children of David and Victoria Beckham have never experienced a normal life since they were born; whether in England or in Spain. I can only see one possible outcome now that the family live in America and that is a continuation of the patterns already in pace.
Their father is one of the most iconic footballers that has every played the game and and an instantly recognizable face the world over. Victoria is still a recognizable celebrity, though it is clear that anything she ever attempts will be overshadowed by her vastly superior husband in the rankings of celebrity status in the fame game. For that reason she tends to crave the media glare and any number of TV profiles will tell you that she instigates much of the involvement from the paparazzi, supplying details of where she will be and when. Her career, spice girls re-union aside, now consists of having her picture taken when out shopping.
If normal life consisted of multi-millionaire parents, mansions, fast sports cars, advertising deals, adoring fans and endless appearances in the tabloids and glossy magazines, then yes it would be possible for their children to have a normal life. Of course we all know that is not normality, realistic or achievable. The Beckhams live an extremely privilege lifestyle, earned from David being at the top of his game over the last ten years, and so too will their children. However much the Beckhams crave normality for their children it will not occur and they will continue to live their luxury lifestyle in the media eye for as long as the publics interest in them continues.
