David Beckham has hired 'Thunderbirds' 'Tracy Island' for his tenth wedding anniversary to wife Victoria.
The soccer star has reportedly splashed out £100,000 to ensure he and the former Spice Girl are the only people on the idyllic North Island in the Seychelles - which featured in the 2004 film adaptation of the puppet TV series 'Thunderbirds', about a technically advanced heroic organisation known as International Rescue.
A source said: "David and Victoria appear so in love. They have gone on lots of romantic walks, holding hands like a couple of newlyweds."
The 34-year-old sportsman has hired a private chef and a team of 20 staff members - including a top security team - to look after Victoria and himself during their stay in the Indian Ocean tropical paradise and has arranged for the use of a helicopter and powerboat.
The source added to Britain's The Sun newspaper: "This place is the best and so secluded. The security makes it like a spy base."
The couple - who celebrated their anniversary on Saturday (04.07.09) - spent the evening drinking vintage French wine which reportedly cost £500 a bottle.
David and 35-year-old Victoria - who have three sons together, Brooklyn, 10, Romeo, six, and four-year-old Cruz - married at Dublin's Luttrellstown Castle on July 4 1999.
They are expected to return to the UK tomorrow (07.07.09) and be reunited with their sons who have been staying with Victoria's parents in the South of France.

Katie Price was left furious after estranged husband Peter Andre invited one of her arch-rivals to their daughter's birthday party.
The British star was livid after learning fellow glamour model Chantelle Houghton - who she has publicly criticised in the past - turned up at the 'Mysterious Girl' singer's house to help Princess Tiaamii celebrate her second birthday and she is now worried the pair are going to start dating.
A source close to Katie - who also has a four-year-old son, Junior, with Peter, as well as seven-year-old Harvey from a previous relationship - told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "She is terrified Chantelle could become Pete's girlfriend and start playing mother to her kids."
When questioned about Peter's growing closeness to Chantelle, Katie snapped: "There's no point asking. Goodbye!"
Chantelle has made no secret of her fondness for Peter since he announced his split from Katie in May.
She said: "Of course I'm attracted to him. Pete is an amazing guy - very hunky."
Katie - also known as Jordan - is working hard to repair her image after she was heavily criticised for her wild partying while on a recent holiday in Ibiza.
A friend said: "In Ibiza Katie went back to being crazy Jordan. But now she's realised it could affect her chances of getting the kids.
"She knows she's got to be sensible Katie Price, who's a good parent, role model and charity fundraiser. She knows she has to knock wild nights out on the head - for the time being at least."
Meanwhile, Sarah Harding has spoken out in support of both Katie and Peter, insisting she is refusing to take sides.
The Girls Aloud beauty - who was bridesmaid at their 2005 wedding - said: "It's so sad. I really hoped it wasn't permanent and wanted to get them back together. They have both been good friends to me in the past.
"I'm not going to be drawn into team Katie or team Pete."

Nicole Scherzinger's career is more important than her relationship.
The Pussycat Dolls singer - who is dating racing driver Lewis Hamilton - insists getting married is the least of her priorities and she was "mortified" when it was suggested recently that she is set to walk down the aisle.
She said: "Someone asked me a general question about what I wanted in ten years and whether my ambitions included a family and then the next day it was in all the papers that 'Nicole wants to marry Lewis', when that was the last thing I said.
"In ten years time I would like to have accomplished a lot in my career - that is the most important thing to me. My dream is to do my own music one day, to have an unbelievable tour, to have done some musical theatre and some film and maybe to have opened up a performing arts school for special needs kids.
"That is my ultimate dream, not marriage."
Despite admitting that being in the public eye makes it difficult for the couple - who have been dating since November 2007 - to go out, one thing they always make time for is attending church together.
Nicole added: "Religion is an important bond. One of the most important things if you want to have longevity in a relationship is a good strong spiritual connection."

Amelle Berrabah has a crush on Brad Pitt.
The Sugababes singer, who split from long-term partner Freddie Fuller earlier this year, loves watching the 45-year-old Hollywood hunk's movies.
She said: "Even though it is such a cliche I love Brad Pitt. He is so good looking. I was watching 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' recently and he is so hot. He just gets better looking.
"I love Johnny Depp too. I think he is gorgeous."
Amelle insists she is happy not being in a relationship and is putting her music career before her love life.
She said: "I am a single lady at the moment. I am enjoying it, I am going out with friends and chilling out and just enjoying life. I am focusing on my work.
"I hope he moves on. It just didn't work out for us, it was one of those things. I am concentrating on my work for now. I am too shy to meet new guys!"
The 24-year-old star also revealed her bandmate Heidi Range is still loved up with TV presenter Dave Berry and she is expecting the pair - who have been dating for around five years - to get engaged soon.
Amelle said: "Heidi is one of my best friends and Dave is such a nice person. They are meant to be together. They will get married one day, I am sure of it. When the time is right it will happen."

Amelle Berrabah once fell down a flight of steps when she was drunk.
The Sugababes singer admits she lost her balance after drinking too much alcohol and trying to balance on towering high heels.
She told BANG Showbiz: "I fell down some stairs once when I was drunk. I was smiling away and then I just pounded down right to the bottom. I was wearing heels and I missed a step and I literally went flying.
"It was really embarrassing, everyone was trying to help me, but I was saying, 'Don't touch me! I'm fine.'
"But I had a laugh about it afterwards. You can't take things too seriously."
Amelle is not the only star to have embarrassed themselves while drunk.
Lily Allen was reportedly thrown off Formula One boss Flavio Briatore's yacht in France last summer.
Lily, who appeared to be intoxicated, jumped overboard the vessel but had to be dragged out of the sea by crew members who feared she was drowning.
When she was back on board, embarrassed Flavio made her cover up before asking her to leave.
