Be my Valentine: Victoria Beckham's sweet surprise for husband David

She's been with her husband for more than a decade, but Victoria Beckham hasn't tired of romantic gestures.

The Spice Girl was spotted browsing through Valentine's Day cards while on a shopping spree at Dylan's Candy Bar in New York, eventually settling on a sweet surprise.

The card read: "I can't (bear) to be without you" - with gummy bear treats in place of the word.

Victoria's youngest son Cruz – who turns 3 next week – joined her on the outing, with the pair also hitting a toy store on 5th Avenue.

David and Posh may well be spending Valentine's Day apart - the football star is currently in LA with the couple's other two sons Romeo and Brooklyn.

With Victoria on tour, the couple have rarely been spotted together this year.

Duo: Posh had her youngest son Cruz for company

There have been a string of reports claiming Posh was behind the decision to cancel additional Spice Girl concerts in China, South Africa, Australia and Argentina, so she could spend more time with David and her sons.

She also did little to quash mounting rumours of a rift between the group after she skipped Melanie Chisholm's solo show in New York earlier this week.

The other members of the girl group, Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell and Melanie Brown, all turned out at the Manhattan Center to support their fellow Spice Girl but Victoria failed to turn up, according to reports.

The band has continued to deny claims of a feud, insisting the rumours are "rubbish".
