Victoria Beckham recalls meeting David in parking lots to keep relationship ‘secret’
Victoria Beckham has revealed that she and David Beckham were forced to quietly meet up in car parks to keep their relationship out of the public eye.
“My manager kept saying, ‘Try to keep it a secret,'” the Spice Girls alum explained in the trailer released Tuesday for the upcoming Netflix documentary “Beckham.”
“So we would end up in parking lots and it’s not as shabby as it seems.”
Giving an extra tease, the trailer then cut to the retired footballer who laughingly said: “Cla*sy.”
The new four-part Netflix series follows David’s upbringing and successful sporting career after the footballer became one of the best-known names in sport.
The docuseries will also detail his long-running romance with Victoria, which began in 1997 after the two met at one of David’s Manchester United football matches.
“We talked for about an hour in the players’ lounge, and she brought the train out that day,” David recalled in a February 2020 interview on “The Tonight Show.”

“So she wrote down her number on her train ticket, which I still have.”
Posh Spice also shared her interpretation of their first meeting in a 2016 letter to British Vogue.
“While the other footballers are at the bar drinking with their friends, you’ll see David standing aside with his family. (He’s not even in the first team at this point – you’re the famous one.) And he has such a cute smile,” Victoria wrote.
“You too are close to your family and you will think how much they are like you. He will ask you for your number. (He still has the London-Manchester plane ticket you wrote it on.)”
A year after meeting in a bar, the couple announced they were engaged.
However, before they got married, they announced that they were expecting their first child, Brooklyn.
The two would marry in July 1998 after welcoming the first of what would become four children four months later.
After more than two decades of marriage, David and Victoria still take advantage of opportunities to gush about each other.
David, 48, revealed to The Sun on Friday he got the tattoo to honor Victoria, 49, and her successful career with the Spice Girls.
“I just got ‘Posh’ done… all the tattoos I have are family ones,” David told the outlet, showing off the “Posh” inked on his hand. However, just a month ago, their 18-year-old son Cruz also got a tattoo of the word “Posh.”
In addition to Brooklyn and Cruz, the lovebirds also share son Romeo, 20, and daughter Harper, 12.
“Beckham” begins streaming on Netflix on October 4.
