Victoria Beckham is said to be livid at the idea of Rebecca Loos ‘trying to make herself a celebrity again’ following her rumoured TV return.
Former England captain David’s PA rocked the Beckham’s marriage 20 years ago when she claimed to have had a four-month ‘steamy affair’ with David while he was out in Madrid, and Victoria was still in the UK with their kids. The footballer denied the allegations and branded her ‘ludicrous’, then later said it was one of the hardest periods of his marriage.
It’s been reported that Rebecca, 46, has signed up for Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins as she puts her body on the line with some gruelling physical challenges. The programme delves deep into the star’s past and that presents a clear problem for the power couple.

“She is furious about Rebecca signing up for Celebrity SAS, and she’s terrified about what she’s going to say now she’s back on the showbiz circuit,” a source told Heat Magazine. “Vic really thought she had put all of that behind her, but she feels Rebecca is still determined to try and ruin them.
“She can’t help but blame David for all of this – first of all for getting involved in the first place, and then for how he handled it in his Netflix documentary last year. David has told Victoria not to let it bother her, but while Victoria knows Rebecca no longer poses any threat to her marriage, she’s terrified about what she’s going to say next.”
In Bower’s book, it’s revealed for the first time that Rebecca allegedly decided to speak out about their alleged affair after being appalled by David’s treatment of a waitress in Madrid. Bower claims David supposedly refusing to give a tip – then later handing over a wad of cash – was the “turning point for Loos realising Beckham’s double standards.”
Rebecca gave several follow-up interviews after her initial explosive chat. In a sit down with Sky, she claimed her chemistry with David had been off the charts and that they shared the same sense of humour. Addressing his marriage, she said it appeared David missed his wife and was ‘lonely’ in Spain, and Rebecca insisted she had no intention of breaking up their marriage.
Asked about her thoughts on Victoria, she had one demand – no sympathy please. “I don’t expect any sympathy from her whatsoever,” she said. “I think it’s bad enough for me to do what I have done without me expecting any words of sympathy.
“I really hope that they get through it. I think the problems were in their marriage long before I came into the picture. I in no way intended to break up their marriage especially when there are young children involved. I hope they stay together.”
