The Sun on Sunday has previously told how Harry confronted the ex-England skipper over leak claims.
It is thought the couples grew close as David’s comms director Izzy May is pals with Markus Anderson, who helped to arrange Harry and Meghan’s secret dates at London’s Soho House.
David, 48, and wife Victoria, 49, were then guests at the Sussexes’ wedding in 2018.
But Harry and Meghan were not present when the Beckhams’ eldest son Brooklyn, 24, married last year.
Nor were they at David’s star-studded football event this month — with Kim Kardashian and Serena Williams there for Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami debut.
A source close to the Beckhams told The Mail on Sunday that David and Victoria were “very supportive when Meghan arrived in the UK”.
But they added: “Any making up now is so unlikely.”
It also says George and Amal Clooney are no longer pals with Meghan, while Katy Perry and hubby Orlando Bloom are now closer to King Charles.
It comes after Harry was this week licking his wounds after a High Court judge highlighted his testimony’s “lack of credibility”.
The royal’s reputation hit an all-time low as Mr Justice Fancourt blasted his “inconsistent factual case” and threw out his phone-hacking claim against The Sun.
As the humiliating judgement was published to the National Archives, sources said “all is not well” in US-based Harry’s life after a lucrative deal collapsed.
The Duke and Meghan were branded “f*****g grifters” by a Spotify executive last month as the company ditched their £15million podcast deal after one series.
And the couple, who live in California with their two kids, have been dogged by claims on US gossip sites of marriage problems — which were denied by their reps.
A source said: “There is a bit of a feeling Harry is spiralling out of control and all is not well.
“Members of his family are worried about how he is coping and his determination to keep having legal battles.”
The 40-page Approved Judgement by High Court Judge Mr Timothy Fancourt — handed down at 10am on Thursday — has plunged the prince into a crisis.
The damning ruling, the first time the evidence of a royal has been questioned so thoroughly, concluded Harry’s case had “not reached the necessary threshold of plausibility and cogency”.
It adds the “lack of credibility arises from: the unexplained lateness of the plea . . . the improbability of a secret agreement being made in the terms pleaded . . . the absence of any explanation for the new factual case being raised; and absence of any other witness or documentary evidence to support it.”
Delivered at the imposing High Court building, bearing the Royal Coat of Arms, the judgement added Prince Harry had signed two “statements of truth” that were “inconsistent” with his evidence.
The Duke is suing Sun publisher News Group Newspapers, alleging phone-hacking and other unlawful activities — which are denied.
