Rebecca Loos has hit out at “brand Beckham” and thrown her support behind Brooklyn. Earlier this month, following years of speculation, Sir David Beckham and Lady Victoria’s eldest child took to social media to furiously dismiss his relatives and explain that he has no intention of reconciling with them.
Brooklyn, 26, claimed that his famous parents would always put the family’s image before anything else, and he’d had enough of staged social media posts. But now, Rebecca Loos, who claims to have had an affair with Sir David, has spoken out and thrown her support behind the wannabe chef.
In a new TV interview, Rebecca has spoken out and claimed that the Beckham fall-out is “validation” for what she endured after going public with her alleged affair. “Suddenly you’re part of a big PR war,” she said.

Rebecca, 48, went on to add: “In a very small way, this is, of course, validation for what I said and came forward and said 22 years ago. Brooklyn is basically confirming inauthentic relationships, value of promotion, endorsements above all else, and that it’s all focused on brand Beckham, and that that’s all that matters.”
In Brooklyn’s scathing Instagram post, he also claimed his mother danced “very inappropriately” on him during his wedding reception after tying the knot with Nicola Peltz in 2002. He fumed: “My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song.
“In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead. She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”
Responding to this, Rebecca said in a new 5 documentary, The Beckham Feud: Truth & Lies: “Whether it came from her or whether it was Marc Anthony is beside the point because it shows a lack of awareness for other people’s feelings.
“I think any other mother would’ve read the room and understood this is awkward and probably said, thank you for the compliment, but the most beautiful woman in the room is Nicola, Nicola, please take this dance.
“Or at least if the mother had had a few too many glasses of wine and was unable to read the room, maybe the husband or the father would then have maybe stepped in and maybe grabbed Nicola, twirled her around and then swap partners to let her have the dance.”
It was in 2004 when Loos claimed she’d had an affair with Beckham while working as his personal assistant. Both David and Victoria strenuously denied the claims, but Rebecca continued to share what allegedly happened.
While she faced backlash for selling her story, Rebecca revealed several years ago that she felt as though she had to share the “truth”.
She told Closer magazine: “I just felt the need to be truthful. Whether you’ve done something that’s right or wrong, it was kind of just eating me up. I was living a lie and keeping secrets.”
The Beckham Feud: Truth & Lies airs at 9pm Sunday 1st February on 5
