       In 2003, 14-year-old Jenna spoke to a journalist of hours about moving to Spain.

       “I’ve only been a Beckham fan for a couple of years but my dad always loved seeing him play at Manchester United. It took him ten hours to get there by car from Cornwall! Mum also follows Becks now. When she and I heard he was leaving to play in Spain, I said, “ Let’s move to Spain!” Dad agreed to come but my older brother decided to stay in England. He’s still living in our house there.

       At first we didn’t know if Becks would play for Barcelona or Madrid, so my parents bought a place in Alicante. It’s only about three hours away from both cities. Our new home has three bedrooms and two bathrooms on one floor, and there’s a flat with another two bedrooms and bathrooms under that. There’s a pool, too.

       My friends in England will come and visit for my birthday in February. They think I’m a bit mad but they’re pleased for me too. I email them all the time. It’s great to live in another country and learn a new language, but I’m finding Spanish quite difficult. I learned French in England and I keep mixing the two. It’ll be easier when I start at my new school.

       Becks is paying really well in Spain, which keeps my dad happy! What I love most about him is that he’s a big family man. Being famous hasn’t changed him. I’m having a great time in Spain and I’d really like to meet Becks one day.”
