The Beckhams drove their three-year-old son Romeo to a Spanish hospital for emergency treatment on Saturday, October 1st. The boy suffered shock convulsions.

The famous Real Madrid midfielder and his wife, the former Posh Spice, were reportedly panic-stricken as they hurried into the children's emergency ward.

Romeo had to be hospitalized for the second time in the latest two months. Victoria had previously rushed Romeo to Harlow's Princess Alexandra Hospital in August, after he suffered a similar problem at their Hertfordshire home.

On that occasion, he was kept under observation and released a few hours later.

According to a source quoted by British newspaper The Daily Star, "David and Victoria were worried sick about Romeo and scared about what was happening to him, but managed to keep calm.

They stayed for an hour-and-a-half and then left by the back door."

David was pictured cradling his son with wife Victoria outside the emergency ward in Madrid's La Paz hospital. The Sun newspaper reported that Romeo was seen by doctors immediately and was released after tests to rest at home.
