Sad katie asks Posh for help
Monday 30 March 2009
They fell out at the end of last year, but Closer can reveal that Victoria Beckham and Katie Holmes ended their six-month-long spat last week when Katie made a desperate phone call to Victoria asking for help.
Pals say that after not speaking properly for almost six months, Katie - who has caused concern recently with her gaunt appearance - phoned Victoria, 34, for advice about her marriage to Scientology devotee Tom.
A source told Closer: "Katie called Victoria for advice. They chatted for ages and their rift has now been healed. They had stopped speaking after Victoria allegedly made some comments about Katie's figure that upset her."
"But when Katie called everything was fine between them, and she explained to Victoria that she's been having difficulties with Tom lately and she needs Victoria's help.
"Katie's struggling with the fact she has to go everywhere with Scientology minders. She's also believed to be on a fertility diet to try to get pregnant again, but it's left her so weak that she feels terrible."
Katie, 30, and Victoria first became pals in 2007 when Victoria and hubby David, 33, moved to Los Angeles. But they fell out after a series of disagreements last year, and were then snapped in November looking frosty at a Thanksgiving outing in New York with their husbands.
But when Victoria heard from Katie, she immediately insisted they meet up at Beverly Hills restuarant Nobu. Pals say that Victoria's been worried about Katie lately due to her exhausted and gaunt appearance.
"Victoria's been concerned about Katie for some time so was glad to hear from her. They met up for lunch and Victoria came up with some ideas to help her," the source said.
"She told Katie she needs to get out more - without her Scientology minders - and suggested that she come on a trip to Italy with her and the boys when they go to see David in Milan."
And following Victoria and Katie's lunch meeting, Katie spent the day looking after Victoria's children, Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, six, and Cruz, four, along with her own daughter Suri, two.
They visited Le Pain Quotidien Bakery in Beverly Hills, before heading to The Children's Art Center in Santa Monica for a day of arts and crafts.
And pals say that Katie is starting to feel better already.
The source revealed: "Katie now feels she can have time alone. She was so thrilled Victoria agreed to help, she knows that she won't take any nonsense from Tom."
And pals say that Victoria is already planning other expeditions to keep Katie feeling positive and happy, including some girlie days out with her LA pals Eva Longoria and Kate Beckinsale.
"Victoria is incredibly practical and has lots of ideas about how Katie can get her sparkle back. She's been so worried about her. She's roped in Eva and Kate to go on a shopping trip," the source said.
"Victoria thinks it's important for Katie to remember she's young and needs fun too."

RE: Sad katie asks Posh for help
I dont believe this story for a minute. They probably didnt spend as much time together cos Katies been in New York on stage and also filming. And i dont believe Tom's as bad as people make out if anything i bet its Katie thats got the upper hand. She might look vulnerable and sweet but i bet she can fight her battles if she had to. Just another gaga story from lala land lol.

I'm glad that Victoria and Katie are back in touch,but like Racheal said, why did'nt Victoria just call Katie if she was that concerned,as for things with Tom and his scientology she knew all about that when thay got together,if she dont like it tell him,simple as that,if he loves her he'll understand!

RE: Sad katie asks Posh for help
As Tigerlilly commented, that's a big lie. Katie is currently in New York filming, while posh and the kids, are in Millan with David. Katie helped Posh, bcos David's mom did pull out of the plan to help Posh take care of the kids, while she's out in Millan looking for a house for David.You should have seen the video of Katie when she had posh's kid with her. It showed that Katie didn't even bother or care about Posh's kid, bcos she didin't even pay attention to them, it was thekids nanny that was looking after them.It showed that Katie didn't really want to help her, but did it out of kindness, and pity, bcos she knew that the selfisfish and ungrateful twat was in a desperate need for help.

Posh seems like the worst friend in the world. How the hell is palming her three children off on someone who is clearly down and exhausted, supposed to help her?
