8 Biggest Bombshells in Netflix's 'Beckham' Docu-Series Revealed!

1. David & Victoria address affair allegations, describe subsequent rift in their marriage

In 2004, a year after David signed with Real Madrid, his assistant Rebecca Loos claimed that she had an affair with the player.

In the documentary, David and Victoria broke their silence on the allegation, saying that they were almost ‘torn apart’ by it.

“There were some horrible stories that were difficult to deal with. It was the first time that me and Victoria had been put under that kind of pressure in our marriage,” David said.

Victoria added, “It was the hardest period for us. Because it felt like the world was against us. And here’s the thing; we were against each other, if I’m being completely honest. You know, up until Madrid sometimes it felt like us against everybody else. But we were together. We were connected. We had each other.”

David went on to candidly describe how their marriage nearly fell apart following his move to Spain.

“Every time that we woke up we felt there was something else… we both felt at the time that we were not losing each other but drowning,” he said. “I don’t know how we got through it, in all honesty.”

David continued, “Victoria is everything to me, to see her hurt was incredibly difficult, but we’re fighters and at that time we needed to fight for each other, we needed to fight for our family. And what we had was worth fighting for.”
