Victoria Beckham (49) has spoken for the first time about the pain she suffered following her husband David Beckham's (48) alleged affair with Rebecca Loos (46). Nearly 20 years after it was claimed that the former football star and his then-personal assistant got close while he was playing for Real Madrid in Spain, his wife revealed in the documentary, according to "Mail Online," that the months afterward were the "hardest" of her life and that she no longer felt that the couple "belonged together."

How they got through the 2003 crisis isn't clear to either of them, but they knew at the time that they had to "fight for their family." The period when their prominent marriage was in the headlines for months felt like they were "drowning." The former captain of the English national team also shared that he felt "physically ill every day" as he and Victoria fought to save their marriage.

London Premiere of the Netflix Documentary The problems from 20 years ago seemed miles away at the premiere of the four-part Netflix documentary "Beckham" in London on Tuesday. The mini-series explores his life from childhood to his recent role as co-owner of the US club Inter Miami.
