Pitfall of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s friendship with the Beckhams explained
David and Victoria Beckham once seemed close to Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle. But in recent years, it's clear that their friendship has dramatically cooled
The former England captain is a self-confessed royalist, but even that couldn’t help save his relationship with the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
What was once a close friendship has since turned frosty for the Beckhams and the Sussexes, and an explosive claim on Victoria’s true feelings has now been revealed. While the two couples once had a tight bond, cracks started to appear as the Beckhams were blamed for leaking stories to the press – an allegation they strongly denied.
As the relationship soured, it was then reported Victoria made her feelings clear about the dutchess. Despite reaching out to support Meghan during her move to London, and attending Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s wedding, their fallout became inevitable. The Mirror takes a look at the breakdown of the friendships and where it all went wrong.
William and David were all smiles when they marked the end of the London Air Ambulance Charity’s ‘Up Against Time’ appeal together. RAF Northolt welcomed the royal, the charity’s patron, and the footballer legend, an ambassador for the LAAC.
But it seems as though the Beckhams won’t be spotted with Harry and Meghan any time soon. Insiders claim the Beckham’s haven’t tried to stay in touch with the Sussexes or help repair their frosty relationships after their alleged fall out. A source told the Daily Mail: “Both David and Victoria put great importance on family and would never, ever turn on their relations the way that Harry and Meghan did.”
The source then claimed Victoria has never been a huge fan of Meghan Markle and continued: “The truth is that Victoria never really liked Meghan much. She was friendly and welcoming to her but is not bothered about staying in touch.”
Victoria had reached out to Meghan when she moved to London and at the time, and it was reported that the Spice Girls icon had lent Meghan her all-important little black book of her favourite hairdressers and stylist in the capital. However things are said to have turned sour when details of their friendship were shared in the press – and it was this that led to the first awkward tiff between the couples.
