Beckhams Distance Themselves from the Sussexes Amid Royal Rift: Inside the Power Couple’s Decision. London, United Kingdom – David and Victoria Beckham, once considered close friends of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, have reportedly distanced themselves from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, with sources suggesting that the couple’s decision stems from their loyalty to the Royal Family. The Beckhams, known for their ties to the British monarchy, seem to have shifted their allegiances toward Prince William and Catherine, solidifying their relationship with the future king and queen.
The latest public sighting of David Beckham and Prince William, laughing and chatting at RAF Northolt while inspecting two London Air Ambulances, has ignited speculation about their increasingly close relationship. The two share a long-standing friendship, bonded over mutual causes, such as their work on air ambulance services and charity initiatives. Beckham, a global football icon and royalist, has seemingly reaffirmed his ties to the Windsor family while subtly stepping away from the Sussexes.
The Beckhams’ relationship with Prince Harry and Meghan began with fanfare. In 2018, David and Victoria Beckham attended Harry and Meghan’s wedding at St. George’s Chapel in Windsor, which was hailed as a star-studded affair. However, despite their early camaraderie, tensions between the two couples appear to have emerged.
According to sources close to the Beckhams, the relationship took a turn when Meghan became “outraged” by media reports revealing the couple’s private generosity. In the lead-up to Harry and Meghan’s wedding, the Beckhams had offered their luxurious Los Angeles villa to Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, to shield her from the paparazzi, even going so far as to provide their personal staff to attend to her. However, when this gesture made its way into the press, Meghan reportedly suspected that the Beckhams were responsible for leaking the information. Despite the Beckhams denying the allegations, a sense of distrust developed between the couples.
Victoria Beckham, known for her successful fashion label, had also offered Meghan advice on beauty products and personal grooming, even providing her staff’s services free of charge when Meghan moved into Nottingham Cottage. But this generosity wasn’t enough to sustain the friendship as allegations of leaked information brewed tensions.
