Beckham - Alone Ranger

David Beckham says he's afraid to have friends anymore because he doesn't know who'll sell their story to the papers.

Speaking at his charity World Cup party last night, Becks admitted he realised how out of control his life had become when he was snapped kissing a fan who'd asked for his autograph, and the papers blew it out of proportion.

"They're very touchy feely over here. That was one of the problems with the story where the girl was getting my autograph because in Spain it's rude if you don't do two kisses. There's been so many people who've sold lies. It's nearly killed all of us - our whole family."
