Former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham had an air scare on her way home over the Atlantic when her jet was forced to return to the airport due to some technical problem.
The 36-year-old star was flying by herself to Los Angeles to be reunited with her husband David, 35, and their three children, but was 'left shaken' when the plane had to return to the Heathrow airport in London, reported Mirror online.
At 30,000ft and an hour into the journey, the pilot announced the British Airways plane had a technical issue and they had to turn back. "She was flying on her own so it was a scary moment and she didn't have anyone to turn to. She was looking forward to going home and settling down with the family so she was both shaken up and upset about not getting back to Los Angeles," said a source.
"It was nerve-wracking because the plane had been travelling for so long that it was more than an hour before she was back safely in Heathrow," the source added.
