Kardashians interested in buying Beckingham Palace

With the Beckhams settled in Los Angeles, the couple are considering selling their British home.  The 22 acre estate has been empty for two years since the celebrity couple moved to LA full time.

David Beckham recently extended his contract with Major League soccer outfit La Galaxy while wife Victoria is building a successful career as a fashion designer.

Kim Kardashian stars on the TV reality shows Keeping Up With The Kardashians and Kim and Kourtney Take New York.

Rumors are circulating that the Kardashian sisters are keen to buy the property including many of its furnishings and contents.  Splash News speculates that ‘the Kardashian family might be interested in buying the luxury estate so they would have a place to call their own whenever they are spending time visiting the UK.’

The property is expected to sell for somewhere in the region of $26 to $28 million.
