Jordan and Peter Andre's reality TV show has been scooped up by US executives who hope they will be the next big celebrity couple.
Katie and Peter is set to screen next month on cable channel E! Entertainment Television.
TV Bosses are hoping the real-life series will appeal to American viewers who are used to their own stars being a bit more secretive.
The Beckhams are also set to get their own comedy-based show that will concentrate on their Los Angeles move in the summer and will be aired on US network NBC.
But Cyndi McClellan, senior vice-president of programming strategy and research at E!, said the plan to launch Jordan and Peter was already underway when the idea of the Beckham show emerged.
She said: "We realised that this is a really fun couple, and they really gave all access. In the US, it's getting a little harder to get the full access to a celebrity's lives."
