Rebecca Loos famously claimed she had an affair with David Beckham in 2004, with the footballer vehemently denying the claims.

Her public claims of an affair with David led his wife Victoria Beckham to describe the aftermath as the “hardest period” for both of them. 

In Tom Bower’s latest book, The House of Beckham: Money, Sex and Power, 

it’s claimed Rebecca decided to break her silence about her alleged affair with the former England captain after being disgusted by David’s behaviour towards a waitress.

She alleged that she walked in on him in bed with Spanish model Esther Cañadas. It was claimed the incident happened 

when an upset Posh Spice called Rebecca in order to find her husband – who was at a party at his Real Madrid teammate Cristiano Ronaldo’s villa.

Rebecca reportedly found him in a bedroom with the model at 3am and told him that she ‘had his wife on the phone’. He got up to answer the call and she claimed she saw the model in the bed, which made her feel ‘very hurt’. Rebecca told her friend at the time: “I thought I was the only one.”

In the days that followed Rebecca’s story dominating headlines around the world, Beckham’s PR team were quick to whip up an image of unity at the snowy Courchevel ski resort to safeguard Brand Beckham’s image. “In a bravura performance, the couple clung to each other with an iron grip on his hand. Then they performed a piggy-back and smiled,” notes Bower in his book.

However, their closed-door affairs weren’t as picture-perfect. “Once the show was over they disappeared into their chalet….as everyone drifted off, one journalist looked through the Beckhams’ chalet window. Posh was slapping Beckham hard on his face. Beckham, famous for his ‘short fuse’, did not retaliate.”

Victoria’s transition to Spain was difficult, making her life there unenjoyable. “Her life in Madrid was lonely and unhappy. Although she had everything money could buy she was isolated. With few friends, she was unwilling to learn Spanish. Her diet, rigorous exercise and chain-smoking reflected her anxieties.”

In recent years, Rebecca has stepped back from the limelight and rarely makes media appearances. She is now a married mother-of-two, Rebecca lives in Norway where she works as a yoga teacher and massage therapist. Opening up in the Netflix docuseries Beckham, David and Victoria explained how damaging the allegations were for their relationship.

She admitted that this was ‘one hundred percent’ the lowest point in their marriage, Victoria shared in the documentary: “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.
