The Beckham family is at the center of a highly publicized feud after eldest son Brooklyn Beckham took to Instagram with a series of emotional posts accusing his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, of long-standing interference in his personal life. According to Brooklyn, David and Victoria made endless attempts to undermine his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham. Brooklyn went on to make claims about incidents at his wedding and his parents’ alleged efforts to control the family narrative.
Now, David Beckham’s former assistant, Rebecca Loos, is speaking out. Loos previously alleged that she and David had an affair in 2004, several years after David and Victoria tied the knot. According to Loos, the affair happened when she began working for the soccer star. David and Victoria have denied the affair, but Loos remains firm that it happened.
Loos commented on Brooklyn’s viral Instagram posts in the comments section of another recent Instagram post. “So happy he is standing up for himself and speaking publicly finally,” she wrote, according to E! News. “I have felt so bad for his poor wife, knowing too well what they can be like!”
Another user commented, “Fascinating admission from Brooklyn.” To that, Brooklyn commented, “The truth always comes out,” along with a red heart.
David Beckham indirectly commented on Brooklyn Beckham’s Instagram Stories
David Beckham had a lot to discuss when appearing on CNBC’s Squawk Box on Jan. 20, 2026. While on the program, Beckham commented on “the power of social media.”
“I have always spoken about social media and the power of social media. For the good and for the bad,” David said. “The bad we’ve talked about with what kids can access these days, it can be dangerous. But what I have found personally, especially with my kids as well, use it for the right reasons. I’ve been able to use my platform and my following for UNICEF. And it has been the biggest tool to make people aware of what’s going on around the world for children.”
He added that he’s tried to “educate” his kids about social media. “They make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes,” David continued. “That is how they learn. That is what I try to teach my kids. … You sometimes have to let them make those mistakes as well.”
Rebecca Loos spoke out about the alleged affair in recent years
Rebecca Loos first entered the public eye in 2004. She claimed to have had a four-month affair with David Beckham, a story David publicly dismissed at the time as “ludicrous.” In recent years, Loos has revisited those allegations after the 2023 Netflix documentary Beckham, which revisited that period in David and Victoria’s marriage. Loos has maintained she “never lied” about her claims and described standing up for her version of events as brave, especially given the Beckhams’ media influence.
“In my opinion, it was a very brave thing to do to go up against them,” Loos told 60 Minutes Australia, according to The Standard. “I have stuck to the truth. I’ve never exaggerated. I never lied about a single thing. Why? Because I’m going up against the strongest, most powerful couple in the media who have all the money in the world for the best PR, the best lawyers. And all I had on my side was the truth.”
Loos went on to call the high-profile alleged affair a “big part” of her journey. “And if somebody tries to bring me down and smear me, I’m gonna have to stand up for myself,” she continued. “I think I always will.”
