David Beckham’s alleged former mistress, Rebecca Loos, picks a side in family feud: I know ‘too well what they can be like’
David Beckham’s alleged former mistress, Rebecca Loos, is team Brooklyn Beckham.
The personal assistant-turned-yoga teacher responded to a fan who urged her to read the aspiring chef’s statement, in which he accused David and Victoria Beckham of controlling him.
“So happy he is standing up for himself and speaking publicly finally!!!! I have felt so bad for his poor wife, knowing too well what they can be like!” Loos responded in her latest Instagram post, referencing Brooklyn’s spouse, Nicola Peltz.
The fan also told Loos, 48, that they felt “like Brooklyn is supporting everyone who knows the facade.
“I know you are wonderful and happy and don’t need validation but I think you will feel a source of extra validation,” they pointed out.
To another person who dubbed Brooklyn’s statement a “fascinating admission,” she responded, “The truth always comes out.”
In 2004, Loos publicly claimed to have had an affair with David. At the time, the soccer player had relocated to Spain to play for Real Madrid, leaving his then-wife of four years home in England with their young sons.
Despite David, 50, and Victoria, 51, vehemently denying her claims, Loos has stood by her allegations.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he wrote in part. “I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life. For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family.”
The former photographer continued, “For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family [with] performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships. … Recently, I have seen with my own eyes the lengths that they’ll go through to place countless lies in the media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade.”
He also claimed that his parents “have been trying endlessly to ruin [his] relationship” with Peltz, 31, and that Victoria canceled making his wife’s wedding dress at the last minute.
Brooklyn went on to allege that his parents dubbed him “evil” for not letting them sit at their table during his wedding to Peltz, and that Victoria hijacked their first dance.
“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,” he recalled. “She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everybody. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”
He also claimed his family “value public promotion and endorsements above all else” because “brand Beckham comes first,” explaining, “Family ‘love’ is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo opp, even if it’s at the expense of our professional obligations.”
Additionally, he shut down the notion that his wife controls him, claiming it is “backwards.”
Brooklyn — who reportedly only wants to speak to his parents through their lawyers — insisted, “I have been controlled by my parents for most of my life. I grew up with overwhelming anxiety. For the first time in my life, since stepping away from my family, that anxiety has disappeared. I wake up every morning grateful for the life I chose, and have found peace and relief.”
Shortly after, a source told us that “everything Brooklyn said in his statement is true” despite how “crazy and unhinged” it might sound.
The insider also noted that a reconciliation is not in the cards “for now,” noting “it’s too late.”
“He’s had enough,” they said.
As to what caused Brooklyn to finally come clean about the feud on social media, a second source told us “there [was] a massive breakdown in trust.”
“From Brooklyn and [wife] Nicola [Peltz’s] perspective they have tried everything they can to repair the relationship privately with David and Victoria, they’ve tried to talk it out, have tried to have meetings with them, but ultimately in the end they just didn’t trust them anymore.”
Brooklyn and Peltz had also allegedly reached a point of frustration with reading things that “weren’t true.”
“They’d had enough,” the source explained, noting that as the drama has escalated in recent months, “This ultimately has become a huge power struggle between two powerful families.”
“The couple just doesn’t want to deal with it anymore,” the insider added. “They’ve had it and just want to move on in their lives. Last week was the last straw, they just couldn’t handle it anymore.”
