David & Victoria Beckham Reportedly Weaponized This Against One Another, New Book Claims
Hollywood is full of secrets, illusions, and lies; and apparently, one author is now trying to shine a light on one beloved couple, claiming it’s not at all what they claim it to be. Buckle up, because this new book claims David Beckham and Victoria Beckham’s marriage is fully transactional, and even used the media to weaponize against one another.
In Tom Bower’s upcoming book, The House of Beckham: Money, S– and Power, he claims a lot about the alleged reality of the Beckhems’ relationship. Amid the excerpts obtained by the Herald Sun, Bower claims that they allegedly told their publicists to feed bad stories to the media.

“Reflecting the acrimony between the Beckhams, the two publicists began to compete rather than collaborate to promote their own client,” Bower claims in his book. “Both fed negative stories about the other side to their favorite tabloid journalists.”
He added that this fight was as though it “was like a nuclear bomb had gone off” within their camps.
Despite allegedly later becoming a “distant business relationship” in the years after the alleged scandal, they did decide to band together for one reason. According to Bower, they’re sticking together for the “illusion of a happy family, [and] they stuck together to support the Brand.”
Um, yikes, that’s a lot to unpack, and now, fans are trying to put all the pieces together.
For those who don’t know, Victoria and David married in 1999 after getting together in 1997.
Since then, they’ve welcomed four children named Brooklyn, born in 1999, Romeo, born in 2002, Cruz, born in 2005, and Harper, born in 2011.
