The incredible story of David Beckham and His wife Victoria Beckham…See More
In the event you’ve been living under a rock, let me give you a not-so-gentle reminder that THE BECKHAM FAMILY OFFICIALLY HAS A NETFLIX DOC!
In the four-part series, which debuted back in October 2023, viewers get an inside look at David Beckham and his family’s world—from the athlete’s beginnings as a soccer player to his life at home alongside his wife, Victoria Beckham.
By now, you’ve likely watched binged the entire series (guilty), but in the event you’re curious to know more about the Beckhams, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to go way, way back into the archives to bring you a complete timeline of their entire relationship, from the cheating scandals and breakup rumors to the couple’s sweetest moments and biggest milestones.
Get ready for a lot of drama, a lot of tattoos, and more “xx” signatures than you can count.
Though the couple reportedly grew up within 15 minutes of each other in London, they didn’t actually meet IRL until years later (call it fate, people!), when Victoria was *the* Posh Spice of the Spice Girls and David was out here casually playing soccer with Manchester United.
According to David’s accounts on the Ellen DeGeneres Show (via the Mirror), “She came to a football match—soccer match—and I said hi from across the room and that was it.”
“I thought I’d missed my chance, and then a week later she turned up at another football match,” the athlete continued.
Their second meeting was luckily a lot more robust, per a later interview David had with Jimmy Fallon on the Tonight Show: “We talked for about an hour in the players’ lounge and then she actually got the train up that day, so she wrote her number down on her train ticket, which I still have.”
