DAVID Beckham gets a shock on holiday as he runs into Fergie — but it was the Duchess of York rather than his former Manchester United boss.

The 47-year-old reportedly had a tempestuous relationship with tough-talking Scot Sir Alex Ferguson, who frowned upon his celebrity lifestyle.

Happily it was Sarah Ferguson he and wife Victoria, 48, bumped into at a seafood restaurant on Italy’s Amalfi Coast.

Victoria kissed her 62-year-old pal, who hosted their daughter Harper’s sixth birthday party at Buckingham Palace in 2017.

The Beckhams have been staying aboard their £5million yacht.

David took the plunge after being inspired by maritime getaways with Sir Elton John and hubby David Furnish.

A source said: “David had a look around some yachts in the summer, and decided to treat himself.

"He helped design the boat himself, and has been incredibly hands-on with everything.

"It’s not an oligarch-stylee super-yacht, but it’s still pretty plush by anyone’s standards.

"He was inspired after holidaying with Elton and David on their boat - and loves life on the water.

"There will be an area for the kids to snorkel, and the boat will be a brilliant base for the whole Beckham clan to have magical holidays abroad.”

David is understood to have bought a Ferretti following a visit to the Italian shipyard’s HQ in Forli.
