Beckham Couple Weathers 26 Years of Storms, Emerges Stronger

In October 2025, former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, now 51 years old, opened up about her 26-year marriage to David Beckham, the former soccer star. The couple recently celebrated their 26th wedding anniversary, despite naysayers who claimed their relationship would not last.

Victoria revealed that they have faced numerous challenges over the years, including a 2004 scandal in which former nanny Rebecca Loos claimed to have had an affair with David. "We've had so much thrown at us," Victoria said, "and we've always just been there together and just ridden the storm."

David, for his part, acknowledged that it was incredibly difficult to see his wife hurt during that time, but said they needed to fight for each other and their family. "We're fighters," he explained. "And at that time, we needed to fight for each other, we needed to fight for our family. And what we had was worth fighting for."
