Victoria & David Beckham on Divorce Rumor: ‘David and I Have Nothing to Prove’, Says the Fashion Star
It's been a big year for divorces and another pair was rumored to be on the rocks: power couple Victoria and David Beckham. A source for OK Magazine said a few weeks ago that their "perfect family" facade is really just part of "promoting brand Beckham".
"If it weren't for their public image, they would've split years ago," said the source, adding that David's desire to move to Florida to co-own a soccer team is putting even more strain into their already strained relationship.
But are they really on the verge of a breakup?
Apparently not. The fashion icon and latest UNAIDS ambassador denied the claims, telling Grazia, "I have never listen[ed] to, or commented on, the rumors about any aspect of my life. I am blessed to have a wonderful husband and beautiful, healthy, happy children."
However, she does admit that she does spend some time apart from her husband at times, thanks to their very busy schedules. "Yes, we travel a lot with our respective businesses and charitable commitments. But we always make time for each other as a couple and as a family," she said.
"David and I have nothing to prove. We love each other, look out for each other and are strong as both partners and parents," she also insisted.
Victoria did admit that there are times when she finds all her responsibilities challenging. However, she credits all to being a mother and to her and her husband's strong work ethic.
The mother of four also said that she and her husband took it upon themselves to ensure that their children know what privileged lives they lead, even sharing that their son, Romeo, already started to follow in their footsteps with charity work by joining a children's marathon and raising money through sponsorship for David's own charity as well as UNAIDS.
But what is keeping their spark alive after all these years (the couple married in 1999) is the fact that Victoria still sees her husband as a hero. "My husband constantly inspires me and guides me - he has done so much good work. I look up to him and have the utmost respect and admiration for all that he has achieved," she shared.
This is not the first time that the couple had to fight divorce rumors, though. In 2009, the Beckhams famously sued their nanny when she spoke of the goings-on in the Beckham household, and six years later, the famous couple is still fighting the same old rumors. They seem stronger than ever, though. Do you think Victoria and David Beckham are really staying together forever?
