David Beckham apologizes to his children, pays emotional tribute to wife Victoria as Rebecca Loos breaks silence
The documentary “Beckham” offers a compelling journey through the remarkable ascent of Manchester United’s star player.
David Beckham recently issued an apology to his four children—Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper—following their attendance at the London premiere after-party of his new Netflix documentary, “Beckham.” Taking to Instagram, David shared a snapshot of himself and his wife Victoria hitting the dancefloor, mid-boogie. In the caption, he playfully wrote, “Still making her laugh with my dancing 26 years on, love you @victoriabeckham & thank you for being there for Dad last night kiddies @brooklynpeltzbeckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham #HarperSeven.” He humorously added, “Sorry about dad’s moves.”
The photograph was taken after the entire family had joined the star-studded event, including Brooklyn, 24, with his wife Nicola, Romeo, 21, with his girlfriend Mia Regan, Cruz, 18, and Harper, 12.
After a preview of the first episode, which delves into David’s illustrious 20-year football career and the rise of the Brand Beckham phenomenon following his marriage to Victoria in 1999, Victoria also shared intimate photos from the post-premiere festivities. In one of her posts, she even unveiled her natural smile, along with a heartfelt message: “Still making me laugh, and I’m still teaching @davidbeckham to dance. We all love you so much and are so proud of you,” wrote the former Spice Girl, affectionately known as Posh Spice.
The four-part documentary delves into David Beckham’s legacy as one of Britain’s greatest soccer players and the emergence of Brand Beckham. It also addresses the alleged affair with his former personal assistant, Rebecca Loos. During the documentary, David becomes emotional, recalling the challenging period when he moved to Spain to play for Real Madrid, stating, “When I first moved to Spain, it was difficult because I had been part of a club and a family for my whole career, from the age of 15 until I was 27 years old. I get sold overnight, the next minute I’m in a city, I don’t speak the language. More importantly, I didn’t have my family.”
He continues, “Up until Madrid sometimes it felt like us against everybody else. But we were together, we were connected, we had each other. But when we were in Spain, it didn’t really feel like we had each other either. And that’s sad.”
Regarding the alleged affair, David does not directly address it but emphasizes, “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. But ultimately, it’s our private life.”
