The pair were the subject of a new Netflix documentary called ‘Beckham’ which soared to number one on the streaming platform worldwide.
Following David’s iconic career with Manchester United, England and Real Madrid, it also charted Victoria’s success after leaving the Spice Girls and becoming a fashion powerhouse.
Married since 1999, Beckham retired in 2013 and has since committed most of his time to owning an MLS team, something he realised with Inter Miami in 2018.
