Unaccustomed to outpourings of joy, Victoria Beckham actually has something to worry about. On July 12, 2022, the former star of Spice Girls revealed to be the victim of harassment and to be very worried about her daughter Harper. And for good reason, his youngest would have almost been kidnapped several times by a woman by the name of Sharon Bell at the exit of the school. In a statement sent to the Westminster Criminal Court by the Beckham couple, we learn that the accused showed up several times at Harper Beckham’s school, claiming to be her mother, in order to be able to take her with her. .
“I’ve tried to keep it very light as I’m very concerned about the effect this may have on Harper. I tried to protect her and I’m worried for her safety“, said Victoria Beckham in her statement. Very distressed by the actions of Sharon Bell, the singer “now afraid to go out” from her home for fear of crossing her, added prosecutor Arizuna Asante. “This made things difficult for her. She’s worried, especially when Harper goes on a school trip.” he told the court.
The woman knew where I lived…
Sharon Bell has been harassing the Beckham clan for a long time since they have been facing her threatening letters for 5 years now. If the young woman only sent “simple” words of admiration at the start, her letters quickly became very aggressive towards the Beckham family. “I felt like the language in the letters escalated and became more emotional and threatening towards me and my family and that worried me. The letters were increasingly threatening and obviously the woman knew where I lived. I was worried about what she was going to do next“, explained the 47-year-old former footballer.
For the moment, Sharon Bell has been charged with harassment but has not been summoned to criminal proceedings. Appearing to suffer from a serious psychiatric disorder, she was given an indefinite protection order against harassment, which prohibits her from contacting her victims, in this case the entire Beckham family.
