Victoria Beckham finally speaks out about the David affair in Netflix doc

If you remember this, it means you have really gotten very old. It has been twenty years since the affair of David Beckham with his Dutch personal assistant Rebecca Loos came to light, and everyone had something to say about it at the time. Everyone, except Victoria Beckham. While the whole world wondered what she actually thought about the heartbreaking situation, she remained notably silent.

Until now, because in the new four-part Netflix documentary called ‘Beckham’, Victoria speaks out for the first time about that period which she considers the most painful and difficult months of her life. In the documentary, they both indicate how terrible that period was, how they worked through it, and how they decided to fight for each other and for their family. Despite the enormous pressure from the media that hovered over their shaky marriage for months, they addressed their problems behind closed doors and ultimately emerged stronger from the struggle.

Why do they want to share this story now, twenty years later? They want to come across as authentic and no longer feel the need to prove anything. They want to share their complete story, both the good and the bad moments. Victoria says in one of the episodes: ‘Did I hate David? Yes, honestly, I did. It was probably the unhappiest time of my life.’ She describes that period as a nightmare and absolute chaos. It may not sound very cozy, but one thing is for sure: I am incredibly curious about the documentary that will be available on Netflix from now on.
