Victoria Beckham is reportedly furious after learning that her husband David Beckham’s alleged affair with former assistant Rebecca Loos has inspired a new crime drama. The show, titled Towards Zero, is an adaptation of an Agatha Christie novel and features a sports icon entangled in a love triangle, mirroring the scandal that shook the Beckham marriage two decades ago.
Victoria Beckham ‘Devastated’ as Affair Scandal Resurfaces
Sources close to the fashion designer revealed she was heartbroken when she found out that the show’s creators looked at David’s alleged affair to modernize the plot. The former Spice Girl had worked tirelessly to move past the controversy, only for it to resurface in the public eye once again.
A producer of Towards Zero admitted that the show’s concept was discussed during the release of Netflix’s Beckhamdocumentary. The production team was intrigued by the media frenzy and celebrity lifestyle surrounding the power couple. Even the director acknowledged that drawing inspiration from the Beckhams was a lowbrow approach, but it undeniably added a contemporary edge to the storyline.
“Victoria was in a good place, but now she feels trapped in a narrative she thought she had escaped. Just when she believes they’ve moved beyond the affair rumors, something resurfaces and brings it all back,” a source revealed.
Beckham Family Image at Risk
Victoria, 50, has spent years rebuilding the Beckham brand, emphasizing their strength as a couple and a family. However, the scandal has continued to linger. The affair allegations first emerged in 2004 when David, now 49, was transferred to Real Madrid. Loos, 47, claimed to have had a passionate relationship with the soccer star, though the Beckhams have consistently denied the affair.
In Netflix’s Beckham documentary, the former Manchester United legend admitted the allegations put immense strain on their marriage. He described watching Victoria suffer as the hardest thing he had ever experienced. Despite the pain, they chose to fight for their family, ultimately emerging stronger.
Victoria is now expected to address the affair scandal in her upcoming Netflix project, which will provide a deeply personal look at her life. An insider revealed she intends to be more candid than David was in his documentary, shedding light on the emotional toll the rumors took on her. The fashion mogul reportedly broke down in tears while discussing the painful chapter.
Despite the ongoing media storm, sources insist that Victoria and David’s marriage is unshakable. The couple, who share four children, are focused on their multi-millionaire lifestyle and expanding their media empire.
