Posh's book drama continues

Victoria and David Beckham are getting closer to a settlement in their confidentiality case.

The Spice Girl and her soccer-star husband are battling their ex-bodyguard, Mark Niblett, in court over a tell-all book Niblett and biographer Andrew Morton are planning, dotmusic reports.

Victoria and David are trying to prevent the book from being published, and after four hours of talks and hearings, the case was adjourned until Aug. 29.

Both camps refused to comment on the talks except to say that "a large measure of agreement has been reached."

Morton, who has written biographies about Princess Diana and Monica Lewinsky, will not publish anything or get information on the couple from Niblett until next month's hearing.

During the hearings, the High Court learned that David and Posh plan to release their own book in the fall.
