Beckham mends rift with dad

David Beckham and Ted Beckham

British soccer ace David Beckham has enjoyed a heartfelt reunion with his father after finally ending their long-running feud - according to media reports.

The pair ignored each other for three years after Ted published a book about his son - entitled David Beckham: My Son - without his permission.

But now the pair's relationship is back on track after it's claimed David made a surprise visit to his dad's London home.

A source says, "It's brilliant they've ended a conflict that did neither any good."
