Rebecca Loos hits out at David Beckham for resurfacing affair claims

Rebecca Loos has taken a stab at David Beckham for bringing their 'affair' to the surface again as she appeared on Good Morning Britain.

In tell-all interview with Kate Garraway and Richard Madeley on the ITV show, she claimed that the superstar has never actually denied the fling - just called it 'ludicrous'. The couple's former PA also slammed David for refused to accept responsibility for what she claims happened 20 years ago.

The 46-year-old told the presenters: "I had left it all behind me, I'd much rather not be here and talk about this again. I had moved on with my life. But the angle bothered me, how he had played the narrative and how mis-leading it is - and how it made me look the bad person.

"Of course I am also guilty, it's not all him, but it was both of us. He's not denied it, he's never denied it. He said that my claims are 'ludicrous' – ludicrous is not denying it, ludicrous can be the truth. Ludicrous is a term used by lawyers to give to their clients to deflect attention. He's never denied it.

Asked by Richard how Victoria came across on the programme, Rebecca said: "Victoria was honest, she said there was a gap in their marriage. The documentary was very rehearsed, but she came across well."

She went on: "By David not acknowledging responsibly, he is giving a message that it is OK to behave like this. I think that is the wrong message to give - my message is that you make mistakes, own up to them and move on. He says he is happily married, but there are many men who are happily married and have affairs."

In 2003, the England football legend was hit with claims he had an affair with the couple's assistant, who alleged she had a relationship with him while he was playing for Real Madrid. David, who was hit with allegations of affairs with other women, described the claims as "ludicrous" at the time but has hardly addressed them in the past nearly two decades.

Rebecca had previously described David as an "amazing lover" and that they "couldn’t keep their hands off each other". She said in the past: "We were just locked into each other all night conversation-wise, other people noticed… we just connected. I think the chemistry between David and I was so strong… people were aware and they weren’t very happy. He knows how to please."

In their new Netflix documentary, Beckham, director Fisher Stevens asked David: "Multiple tabloid stories broke, and how did you deal with that?" as he replied: "There were some horrible stories that were difficult to deal with. It was the first time that me and Victoria had been put under that kind of pressure in our marriage."

He then asked Posh if that was the hardest time in their marriage. She said: "100 per cent. It was the hardest period for us. Because it felt like the world was against us. And here's the thing; we were against each other, if I'm being completely honest. You know, up until Madrid sometimes it felt like us against everybody else.

"But we were together. We were connected. We had each other. But when we were in Spain, it didn't really feel that we had each other either. And that's sad. I can't even begin to tell you how hard it was and how it affected me."

David also admitted in the documentary: "When I first moved to Spain it was difficult because I've been part of a club and a family for my whole career from the age of 15 to I was 27 years old. I get sold overnight. The next minute I am in a city. I don't speak the language. More importantly, I didn't have my family."
