David Beckham and Victoria speak about the football player’s alleged liaison with an assistant in 2003 and recall a “stupid mistake” made during the 1998 World Cup.
The four-part Netflix documentary Beckham, on the football player David Beckham, provides a thorough picture of his illustrious and contentious life, both personally and professionally. The former British football player and his wife, Victoria Beckham, a former Spice Girl, discuss his alleged love affair with Rebecca Loos in 2003 in the series. Beckham also discusses his battle with serious depression following his single-handed responsibility for England’s defeat versus Argentina in a vital match at the 1998 Football World Cup.
Rebecca Loos asserted in 2003 that she and Beckham dated for four months while he was already Victoria’s husband. The accusation was then brushed aside by Beckham as “ludicrous”. In the documentary series, Victoria refers to it as the “hardest time” of her marriage since, in addition to the “against them” world, they were also “against” each other.
It was the hardest time for us because it felt like everyone was against us, Victoria stated in the documentary series. And let me tell you something, if I’m being absolutely honest, we were at odds with one another. Up until Madrid, it occasionally felt like it was just us versus everyone else, but we were all connected, and we had each other. However, we didn’t really feel like we had each other when we were in Spain either. That’s a shame. I simply cannot express how difficult it was. And how I was impacted by it. She went on to describe that time in her life as a “nightmare” and “an absolute circus”.
