David and Victoria Beckham are one of Britain’s most iconic celebrity couples, but things turned nasty at one point during their marriage, claims investigative journalist Tom Bower

Things turned sour between David and Victoria Beckham when their marriage hit the rocks, claims investigative journalist Tom Bower.

Former footballer David and Spice Girl Victoria have been married for nearly 25 years and are one of Britain’s most iconic celebrity couples. But their relationship hasn’t always been easy and David himself admitted he doesn’t know how they “got through the last 27 years”.

It’s now alleged the power-couple barely spoke during a crisis point in their marriage. Bower, in his new book The House of Beckham serialised in the Mirror, claims Posh and Becks lived separate lives when their marriage hit the rocks.

He claims the couple maintained only a “distant business relationship” during this alleged rough patch after cracks in their marriage started to show in 2016. It’s also claimed by Bower that each of their publicists “fed negative stories” about the other as things were so bad.

He wrote: “The two publicists began to compete rather than collaborate to promote their own client. Both fed negative stories about the other side to their favourite tabloid journalists.”

It’s alleged David accused his wife and her publicist of “waging a media war” against him during the period. However, the couple obviously managed to resolve their alleged issues and are stronger than ever these days.

The couple spoke openly about their marriage issues in their Netflix show, Beckham. Victoria in one scene was seen close to tears as she admitted they were “against each other”.

The docuseries showed newspapers covering the 2004 claims made by David’s former assistant Rebecca Loos that they had an affair while he was playing for Real Madrid. The football icon has slammed the claims as “ludicrous”.
