Rebecca Loos has spoken for the first time after Brooklyn Beckham furiously hit out at his relatives, who he claims always put the brand of the family before anything else

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 1^st February on 5

Ralph Fiennes may have revealed his successor for the iconic role of Voldemort on the Harry Potter TV series as he named a huge name as being a ‘very good choice’

An accidental leak appears to have named a legendary actor as Voldemort in the upcoming Harry Potter TV series. The HBO production is set to showcase JK Rowling’s book on the small screen after it had huge success in cinemas.

It will depict a new iteration of Harry’s story at Hogwarts and beyond, with fans of the franchise eager to find out more. And now, it appears as though one star from the movies has revealed who will be taking on his character’s role even though confirmation has largely been kept under wraps.

Ralph Fiennes‘ iconic performances as Voldemort are written in the history books and he opened up on a potential successor for the TV adaptation while on the red carpet for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple.

The Sun reports that the Hollywood star was asked: “Who do you think should fill your shoes for Voldemort in the upcoming HBO show?” Responding, he said: “I’m told they are already filled, aren’t they? I think Cillian Murphy is very good. A very good choice.”

In a video that was shared on TikTok, Ralph appeared slightly panicked. He added: “I’ve already said, I think Cillian Murphy is very good. I think they’ve cast it, haven’t they? You don’t know?”

Fans were buzzing with the apparent reveal. One user said on social media: “This is amazing news.” And another said: “Oh man this is a good casting actually.”

It’s unclear whether Ralph had just been commenting on speculation. It had previously been reported that the Tommy Shelby star was in line for the role, but the actor himself seemed to distance himself from the role.

He previously told Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast. “I don’t know anything about that,” he said when questioned about his apparent links.

“Also, it’s just really hard to follow anything Ralph Fiennes does,” he added. “The man is an absolute acting legend, so good luck to whoever’s gonna fill those shoes.”

The series is set to feature Dominic McLaughlin as Harry. Arabella Stanton has been cast for the part of Hermoine Grainger, while Alastair Stout will star as Ron Weasley.

Elsewhere, Paul Whitehouse has been revealed for a role in the reboot too, alongside the likes of Bertie Carvel, Johnny Flynn, Bel Powley, Daniel Rigby and Katherine Parkinson.

Only one star will return from the film franchise. Warwick Davis is set to reprise his role as Professor Filius Flitwick.
