Victoria Beckham says son Cruz didn’t realise how ‘good’ David Beckham was at football
David Beckham’s illustrious career as a world-renowned footballer has come as a shock to his son Cruz, who didn’t realise how good his dad was at the sport until the family’s Netflix documentary.
The 49-year-old model and businessman won six Premier League titles, two FA Cups and the Champions League during his career with Manchester United, before he went on to play with Real Madrid in a record-breaking transfer deal and subsequently to LA Galaxy.
David and Spice Girl Victoria married in a lavish wedding ceremony in 1999, and share four children together. They include 25-year-old Brooklyn married to billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz-Beckham, Romeo aged 22, Cruz, 19, and 13-year-old Harper.
The couple and their family were the subject of Netflix documentary Beckham, most well-known for a viral moment in which David calls out Victoria’s recollection of her “working-class” background despite her father dropping her to school in a Rolls-Royce.
