Loos, a former model, was not happy with David Beckham, who pressed on the scab of the scandal during his Netflix docuseries. “He can say whatever he likes, of course, and I understand he has an image to preserve, but he is portraying himself as the victim and he’s making me look like a liar like I’ve made up these stories,” she said to Daily Mail. She further claimed that Beckham brought up the topic in the series, but then quickly shut it down before revealing more details from the time.
She added, “He is indirectly suggesting that I’m the one who has made Victoria [Beckham] suffer. I think it’s one thing to keep your private life to yourself. It’s another thing to mislead the public. And so many people had forgotten about all of this. So many people put all this behind them, this whole affair, the scandal and everything. And he’s dragged it back up again in a way that is affecting my reputation.”
