Oh please, Beckham 'grilling' Victoria is just British humour. Trust me, it is HUMOUR!
I think anyone not just British people should be able to see that….
@auntsally7790 it’s ridiculous honestly. He was just joking with her cause his family actually was working class, and her father drove a rolls Royce lol. And then after that bit he just left the room….Yet this woman wants to make it seem like Beckham was controlling her??? For speaking his mind??? It’s ridiculous the lengths these people go to make a man look bad!
Banter
Of course its humour😁
They are taking those interactions out of context. British humor, plus long married couple giving each other a jokingly hard time. I found it endearing.
They mentioned the affair, it didn't need to be harped on, it was a big bump in a long marriage, and hopefully, it is left in the past.
Victoria Beckham is no fool! She is actually a very funny woman with a great sense of humour! Who is very successful in her own right! ❤❤❤
Can't sing, can't draw, can dance a bit....yet has been a successful pop star an fronted a fashion house. Queen of the grifters.
100% agree. Victoria is a very strong woman, built up a huge business, raised 4 beautiful children and she's so funny.
@@Psycho--Troll_SlayerThe Beckhams live in Holland Park , wouldn’t be an odd site seeing her in Nottinghill . Cast your mind back to what Victoria sang when Katie Price arrived in the members box at Utd one day
woman?
@@Avasmith910 tbh I don’t really care
He was TEASING Victoria, he’s not interrogating her! Jeez, where’s your sense of humour?
I’ll have to see it, but narcissists usually say they are teasing or joking, when really they are being abusive.
Right? Why must we read some sinister motive into everything? The commentator didn’t know his motive, anymore than the viewers, so just calm down. geez! I watched the entire show and came away seeing 2 flawed people, living in a very flawed world, making the best of it. I’m so happy that they have worked through such difficult times as multiple moves and infidelity and recognized that what they had was worth saving. I pray they can go go the distance.
They don't understand British or even Commonwealth humour.
@@RationalNon-conformist or sometimes, they are just teasing
@MelancholyRomantic David Beckham was teasing her! That's how they are together. I've watched a lot of interviews with them and they both have this natural banter. Only have to look at the beautiful children. So not spoilt. Just very grounded and lovely
I don’t think there would’ve been any point asking Victoria anything about the infidelity. I read a vogue interview with her once . Her answer to their infidelity question always stuck with me. She said “My job is to keep the family together. And if anyone has anything unpleasant to say, I don’t want to hear it.” I hope he treats her like a queen.
Nobody’s business but theirs
I agree!
He does I’m sure
Megan calling her a bitch is funny because she doesnt have a fake perpetual smile on her face is rich . Megan looks like one herself !
you mean besides giving her millions and millions of dollars, superfame, and a brand built on his hard work? gee yeah pretty sure shes a queen.
Oh god, the blonde lady is so off. The car thing was a damn joke, she married an athlete, she knew and was fine with it.
Exactly! They really didn’t understand the British humour in their examples. 🙄
I was just going to say the same; there's a bit of a cultural difference humour-wise. @@RannieH71
Exactly, her calling David Cruel for being a footballer and moving from team to team. God forbid a woman supports her husband
@@MscuguAbsolutely in fairness if you get involved with certain people ie sports people. You’ll know their career has a sell by date. Many , many everyday couples with a family have to pack up home and move due to their job
They do not understand what is tolerance in a romantic relationship
Comparing Megan and Harry to the Beckhams is a big insult to the Beckhams. The Beckhams have achieved incredible success by working incredibly hard. On the other hand the M&H duo are pathetic living off the fame of the royal family
Absolutely correct 👍
Well said.
Agreed
I agree, these women appear to b cut of from reality
Exactly. It shows you the credibility of the person making such an analogy
The "Rolls Royce" interjection was just British humour, the British love banter, and that's all that was.
It's a great documentary and even if you aren't in to "soccer", it's a fascinating insight into the workings of an incredibly dedicated and talented athlete, who played for the 2 greatest clubs in world football.
Agree - Americans just wouldn't get that banter (she was laughing - you can tell).
Fully agree
beckham never played in lfc, so what is the other greatest club you're talking about? 🤣
@@sodapop83 I did say the greatest 2 clubs, not the top 10🤣
I found it funny and revealing
The documentary make me appreciate Victoria more, for her composure inspite of having an imperfect husband. She values her marriage, her family.
I was never a fan of Posh’s until I came across some recent years interviews. I find her smart and with a delightful humor, and this documentary included. The media did her dirty in the 90s and 2000s and unfortunately now Megyn is continuing that tradition here.
There was so much complete misreading of things between these two. It makes me discount Megyn’s opinions as a commentator unfortunately.
I do agree though that DB made some decisions and statements that were self- and career-focus, while VB made a lot of hard choices and sacrifices to keep her family together. Kudos to her. He got very lucky
Every human is imperfect. She has a beautiful soul to forgive and respect.
Why is Megyn Kelly so bitter and snarky about this doc? Weird. And... Megyn's botox / plastic surgery is very weird.
@@Prismalpink Well, the price you pay for putting your life out there on a silver platter, even if you only put out the parts of your life that you think paint you in the particular light you want to portray, people aren't blind. They can read between the lines.
I don't care what Megan says. I have no respect for David getting up on stage and putting football before his wife and family. What's the point?
I wish Victoria the best. I watched a "Spice Girls" documentary...what hard-working, grounded, fun-loving and supportive women they were to each other.
@@KnucklSandwichshe is like that all the time
Maureen could not be more wrong. It’s English humour for goodness sake.
It's not English humor...it's written by the writer humor that they perfectly acted out
@eu9399 OK but who is the writer?
Totally. She DID NOT get it t at all.
This is classic British sense of humour.
I do have a much deserved respect for Mrs Beckham. She kept the family together. Less respect for Mr Beckham.
No it’s English celebrity with its light fading
It's not British Humour
I loved the documentary and I think they are both incredible people, each with their flaws!!!
Yeah but of course people are gonna try to pain Beckham as a villian
It's funny You just don't know British humour
You miss interpreted everything . I didn't think he runs her down
@@doringhaak8392 I don’t think he misinterpreted anything??? All he said was that they each have their own flaws! And that’s true about anyone… even Beckham and Victoria admit this
@@S0L12D3 I was referring to Kelly & her friend. They were wrong
How on earth did these women get this so wrong? Maureen needs to go on holiday, or get herself pampered down the beauty salon or elsewhere. David's 'Rolls-Royce inquisition' was simply a jocular insult which is common in most British marriages. Megyn was having a rare off day, after all her brilliant work over the past few weeks.
Agree. They have got the Beckham’s so wrong. Surprised Megyn wasn’t more clever about this..
@denesecarberry8826 I can't understand that they have got this so wrong it's totally British humour amazing how we all think so different whats funny and not funny love the British sense of humour. I married one😂
My mum and dad still have jokey digs at each other . My dad once said to my mum as she came down the hotel stairs . You look just like a film star walking down the stairs just then . My mum went oh who ? My dad said Trigger ( in case think huh he was a horse). They’ve been married 53 years and as solid as a rock
@@Avasmith910 kelly that's such a lovely story and lovely memories for you ❤️
@@eileenbytheway3684 I’m American and absolutely understood that the two of them were simply testing with each other. I thought it was cute, snd fun.
Maureen is taking this way too seriously. It’s entertainment, ladies. I was entertained by it, so mission accomplished.
Wrong kind of entertainment!
We all have our secrets, and its not a reqirement to be an open book to the world. I really enjoyed their story.
@@america9546and chillllllll
Agree
For everything they have gone through with their fame....I admire them both for working through their difficulties and realizing their marriage had value.
Exactly!!
Well said!! Their Marriage has value. Marriage has value.
In the public eye no less. You’ve gotta love them
I'm not speaking for their situation..
However, marriage is one thing mistreatment is another. Too many couples stay together 'just for the kids' and or for appearances.They don't realize that they are teaching the kids that infidelity and or abuse is treatment that is being tolerated & excused rather than leaving an unhealthy situation.
@@sheenie_5264no that's not what it's says.
If there is no physical or verbal or emotional abuse one can forgive an infidelity. It's down to the couple involved.
It's teaching your kids that we are fallible and make mistakes. It's teaching your kids forgiveness, compassion and empathy.
It's teaching your kids the value of a marriage and if there is love you should keep fighting for what you love and believe in.
Why should she walk away for another woman to be step mother to her children and inherit and children's inheritance when there is so much love to absorb the infidelity
😱 OMG. Thousands of British households are like this, my own included. So many times, my MiL (Irish) thinks we're bickering but she just doesn't get it. Don't diss David for his comments, of course he loves Victoria, she knows that so no biggie. Americans, please stop reading in to what you really don't understand. I'm sorry we don't cry as often as you do, but we don't. End of.
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄
Cultural difference . So these 2 needs to chill.
To be honest even in Irish households there is teasing like that, totally normal ' craic' and 'banter'
😂😂👍
😂😂😂"We don't cry as often as you do".
Might want to have a second look at national character differences. I do agree it was mischaracterizing the whole thing though.
Good grief. Is Maureen serious?? Obviously does not appreciate how couples mock, stir and make fun of each other. It is banter, and maybe that is something that Americans don't get. Australians and Brits are the best at it. All couples have rough times, the fact that the Beckhams have been able to stay together is testament that marriages can survive all that life throws at them, and all bad decisions. Victoria is not controlled by anyone, she is hilarious and no doubt gives him what for.
Nah, Americans get that big time. Big time. These sensationalist media types are just trying to cook up controversy where none should exist.
Well said
2:40 Victoria Beckham married one of the biggest footballers of our time. God forbid she supports him by moving with the kids to where he is signed. How is that cruel??????
It isn’t. Maureen is a charlatan. She wants to push a trope and is doing so by pretending to be sympathetic. Shame on Megyn Kelly for failing basic journalism 101 or perhaps not caring as gossip equals views.
Also David Beckham married 20% of the biggest girl band in the world ever 😂❤
@@ameliaseven7783 for 3 years. And they were a manufactured band. And 20% vs 100% Hah Hah Hah
20% = Posh spice, 1 girl out of the 5 doh... i bet theyve made a lot more money than u have and it was a lot longer than 3 years!😂 @duhduh666
One major correction on the Rolls Royce reference. It wasn't an attempt to create a narrative David preferred, it was an attempt to create a narrative that Victoria preferred. David merely called her out on her BS to correct the narrative. No harm no foul here. It would like the man saying he caught a blue Marlin and wife interjecting to say "be honest" and the man having to admit it was a bluegill. The criticism should be on the person stretching the truth not the one raising the red flag.
I agree with her. That is the impression that I had by the end of the show.
Agreed. And I don't think they really get the British humour going on between these Posh and Becks exchanges. They are teasing each other, not trying to undermine each other or make them look bad!
Who knows how old that Rolls Royce was or what condition it was in.
Victoria meant that her parents worked hard to get where they arrived and that she also worked hard to get what shw has achieved. It was all just british banter stop making it seem like Vicky was forcing a narrative. None of them were
I loved the Beckhams!
I think David keeps Victoria "Semi-Normal" and grounded Victoria wasnt called Posh Spice for nothing
The Beckhams look like a great couple who has overcome a lot of challenges that come with fame. Good for them and for their family. They have done well for themselves
Many couples having infedility problems can't manage to save their marriage. The Beckhams despite the publicity were successful in holding the family together. I admire both.
agreed... these 2 blondes have nothing better to talk about
Dude, Maureen, he’s one of the most famous, successful athletes of the most world famous sport! That’s part of the job. Military families move, musician families move, many different types of occupations require moving and as a wife desiring to keep the family together and respect the life she’s signed up for, she does what she needs to do. If she didn’t want to do it, she doesn’t need the money, obviously. She’s doing what many wives around the world do. And as far as loving football, it’s what he was made to do. He doesn’t KIND OF have to be that way, HE HAS to be that way to get to be number one. It’s how it is and it’s what she obviously understands about him. Marriage is not a fairytale. It’s real life. Men suck sometimes. Women have to suck it up sometimes, that’s life. They seem to be doing pretty well for themselves and have a life neither Megyn, Maureen, nor I could imagine. And for the record, Brits can be very harsh and take the piss out of each other. It’s just how they are. I married a Scot, and it’s hard as an American cuz we can be more “nice” and less harsh and critical, but it is generally meant in good humor. you accept it as part of who they are. It’s what you do as a committed, married person.
Maureen was the wrong person to pull in to comment on this documentary ! She fails to understand marriage, what a sense of humour is - and how professional sports team trading works ! OMG she was off on all counts !
Great take 👍
Her comment about David being cruel and passive aggressive for moving his family irritated the hell out of me... I was screaming
👏❤
@@Mscugu how dare he be a successful footballer 🤔🤔
Everything is a give and take. I believe Victoria decided she wants a life with David and it's amazing that she managed to carve a life and career for herself.
Her career of being a Spice girl was mostly at the beginning of when they were falling in love. Now she’s got a Fashion House. He respects her for being famous in her own right. If they split up, which I didn’t see signs of, she has given her all. She had to find schools in every place they landed too. Now they are settled, have fun watching their Netflix series. A lot better than Harry and Meghan’s, where all they did was whine and whinge about the Royal family. That was their whole thing. Neither one of them has accomplished much of anything.
Yes, and I also believe David wanted and still wants a life with Victoria❤
You have to remember they were both successful kids when they met. She was part in one if 2 girl bands and the were very successful. She went in tour in the new loved and passion side, snd would talk to her for hours from wherever she was. He would drive for hours in England if she were somewhere else. Of course hormones
played a big part if that, but he was head over heels. So was she. He did fly across the world when they were in tour. Point bringing she already had established a very good career before their romance began. David was with someone who was at one of the concerts, and he told the person… “See that one? I’m gonna marry her one day!”
She was pregnant” reminds me of Paul snd Kinda McCartney. They were smitten with each other, but she was a
professional photographer taking photos of the top Rick groups. She had been married and divorced, and has a little girl. They got to know each other in London and then they parted ways both continued on site their careers. were touring in NY.
I loved both David and Victoria Beckham. They were honest, humble and endearing. God bless them!
I was disappointed with this discussion. Normally Megyn Kelly is spot on but she made the mistake of falling for Maureen Callahan's opinions about the Beckhams. They are giving an American perspective regarding a British couple. Maureen is projecting things that don't exist. They don't understand the British culture or the professional athlete world. Maureen doesn't grasp what is required in a marriage. I loved how the Beckhams revealed their humanity, vulnerability and imperfections. I like the way they handled the issue of the alleged affairs. At the end of the day, it is a personal and private matter that they dealt with as a deeply committed couple. I don't think divorce was an option for them because they value deeply having a close-knit family. I have respect for their authenticity, honesty, and openness.. They are not perfect but they have strong values and it shows well.
👏👏👏👏👏 Yes!!!
Nobody is perfect! Just human , but these 2 women don’t get it!
So bitchy!!! Mean!
Yes exactly. She could have stuck to basics like how many teams was David in? Their earnings? 12 hours. Hmm. Does Victoria want gossip about her marriage shared as facts. Are you Maureen using Victoria to further your narrative while fooling everyone with faux sympathy towards her. Shame on Megyn.
You are spot on... Condensed my thoughts exactly.. they got it so wrong
Very well said, my thoughts exactly 👍 💐🇳🇱
Victoria Beckham is one of the most classy, kind hearted and funny British celebrities. She is so misunderstood sometimes
Probably cuz she never smiles and always looking for the camera?????
@@marilynmccall2879 she said many years ago that she didn’t like her smile and feels more confident when straight faced
@@marilynmccall2879 she said in an interview once that she doesn’t like her smile. She has insecurities like most women do
I think he was being funny and sarcastic, I think you are over analyzing. I felt very differently with the uncomfortable curtsy from the royals, not the same. Also, he obviously does have true “ocd” it isn’t something to roll your eyes at or make fun of, it is a torture chamber.
💯 agree!
100% agree
Oh come on… he’s teasing with her. Jeez… (where David asks her through the door about being “working class”)
Not easy to keep the marriage on global stage. Kudos to Victoria. We're women know Victoria had it tough. She let him follow his passion, release his energy and enjoy himself. She didn't sit there waiting for him or crying for his affair instead going after her own passion and made her own brand happened. She is a real feminist who makes it clear that you don't have to push any men or anyone down to be something. 😊
@@maried777 Don't understand your question. I thought being married was about sharing your life with your soulmate, about knowing you can exhale when you are back together, because you are 'home', no matter where home is, physically. Marriage is not about stifling your partner's passions. Surely?!
I love the Beckhams! They seem like a lovely family 🫶🏻
The reason I loved this ‘documentary’ was BECAUSE OF all of their obvious flaws that you two pointed out. I like that they didn’t try to hide it (I will admit, though, I did not realize there were more affairs - but we get the point with learning about one of them…). His OCD was so apparent, and I also appreciated that that wasn’t hidden. very flawed family. just like every one of us.
Yes, he’s had multiple affairs, even while she was pregnant.
No he Didn’t have multiple affairs lol he didn’t even say a name, 😂😂😂
@@RationalNon-conformist very bold statement when you have hee haw proof that.
Shame on you horrors for slandering and gossiping. I remember the RL accusatiin, she was their nanny and probably like most wanted money and fame. Whatever its their business and great whatever it was they overcame and have a successful marriage. Good on them! e@MelancholyRomantic
@@RationalNon-conformist Yeah BS. British tabloids are brutal and if he had an affair the world would know about it.
Beckham series is so good. I like the Beckham’s. I loveVictoria.I love her beauty line. I don’t care about their scandals. I wish them the best they went through it and came out strong and we all make mistakes I’m not judging them. Also I want David to come organize my closet.
Haha, yessss, you are so right!
He could start a company where people can book him to bring order in their homes.
I wish Netflix would make the Beckhams a regular reality show! I love them and would like more!
Beauty line? Could you elaborate? Thanks!
@@sharonhilliard74 she has a makeup line. It’s called Victoria Beckham Beauty
Best documentary in a long time ! Nothing to criticize !
This lady must be a mind reader, because she literally spoke for David Beckham. She hasn’t a clue and was projecting.
Absolutely, agree with you!
If you were actually around in the Beckham years everything she said was true. Stop hero worshipping people who don't give a darn about you & start living in reality, watch something that will educate you.
Two Americans not understanding British humour and misinterpreting everything.
Yep! 👏👏
😂
And not understanding a bit of fútbol, not knowing the importance of his time at Real Madrid
and the huge popularity of Beckham as a fútbol player
😂
This lady couldnt be more wrong…. Hahaha… Obviously you both have not seen all David and Victoria interviews and how they dig each other..
They dig each other so much he has to cheat with other women?
That’s not the point. Nobody’s saying they’re not in love. They’re saying it’s not a documentary and the Beckhams have issues that aren’t addressed.
@@saltycat662she wouldn't put out.
@@hsmd4533 why do you want all issues addressesmd lol??? And two that was the main point of the video being Beckham coming out as one who digs at vicky and is self absorbed not the issues which weren’t addressed
@@saltycat662 let me tell you now girl or cat boy🤣 ALL MEN CHEAT!!! i repeat ALL MEN CHEAT!! i promise you that
Maureen, you don't seem to understand marriage OR a sense of humour ! The Beckham documentary was a win for both David and Victoria. They both came off human, interesting, and a nice family.
David giving Posh a hard time about Posh trying to come across as working class was funny. David truly was working class, sorry being driven in a Rolls even if it was used was making a status statement.
I loved that David stood in line for 12-14 hours to pay his respects to Queen Elizabeth II when I'm sure he could have been given special treatment.
David cheating is not ok.
Queen Elizabeth .....Victoria died in 1901!!!!😂
And we don't know for sure if David did cheat. We only know he was accused by Rebecca Lose their nanny. Easy target rich people esp Footballers in Europe.
@@catrionamacfarlane4949 I probably commented while 1/2 asleep. LOL Oops had a "senior moment" updated my comment to "Elizabeth."
Yes! That is one of my favourite DB moments, so humble standing for hours and hours with "the commons" just to pay his respects to the late QE
But isn't there something to be said about honesty? All world class athletes are married to their sport first and foremost. Their wives know exactly what they are marrying into, thus what their roles are. Victoria knows that and is doing a phenomenal job. It is us sometimes who are way too critical....
Women want great men, but don't want the sacrifice that comes to being married to a great 1% man
David was just a footballer until he met Victoria. She was a spice girl.and they were huge.
Sounds a bit like Taylor Swift and Travis-no?
Who cares
@@maryallison5929nothing like that,
David Beckham was a HUGE worldwide fútbol star and played in 2 of the best teams
and also was part of the Galácticos, the greatest Real Madrid team,
the most successful and popular futbol team at that time. He was very popular around the world
VB was also huge so them as a couple was a worldwide bo.mb
Adverse behaviour what the hell , you can see clearly it was just Banter between , so what they did not go to much into the cheating . Give the woman some credit . He got hounded and terrorised on the football field for that 😡 and not to mention how a nation ( England ) treated him when he got sent off . Pure abuse , and look at them strong people , and David Beckham is our English treasure ❤️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I find it fascinating that you totally misunderstood the banter what David was doing or saying when he and Victoria were talking . You completely missed the humor they have with each other. Honestly I’m really disappointed and blown away how you didn’t get it .
Moving clubs and countries at a moments notice is normal for top players. If the club you are under contract for wants to sell you then you have little choice but to move. The alternative is to be ostricised from the club, not play or train (as per Beckham at Real Madrid) and sit out your contract.
Ngl this segment was a massive MISS. A lot of projecting going on from MK’s guest. It’s OK if you don’t get it, it’s clearly not meant for you.
Not knowing much about David and Victoria, I enjoyed the documentary. They seemed very human. Loved his parents!
I liked the mini series. I'm an American. I learned a lot about footy and how talented Beckham is. He worked very hard all his life.
I disagree with the other blonde lady framing David as emotionally abusive. When you marry a professional athlete- it’s part of the package to move on a moments notice. She isn’t an innocent beautiful fool. She knew. And if Posh Spice was lying and saying she was “working class”… WHEN SHE WASN’T (her nickname is Posh remember) so what if he “calls her out”. Good for him, he not a simp.
But to say that Football is more important than his wife and kids is atrocious. Football isn't going to be holding his hand when he's old, sick and on his death bed.
Also, there's a thin line between not being a simp and being outright disrespectful. He should have spoke to her about that privately, not in front of everyone.
@@saltycat662he was only trying to overcome the rumours about him putting his family above football so that his new club and the country would know that he was fully committed to their club.
I agree w first comment. Not offended by David's comments on victoria saying what car it was. Lighten up everyone.
@@billionairegeniusExactly! This was just married life bantering, it was playful and fun and he was not lying, we all know Victoria came from money lol
@@saltycat662 There were concerns he was putting his wife and kids before his football. Media were hammering him. For every Beckham, there is another 20 sitting, itching waiting to take his place. Owners, coaches and players know that. Victoria knew that too. He was contracted for millions. He had to say things like that to show his commitment to the game. That's football. I think the program showed those intense contractual obligations well. They virtually own you. Don't worry about David on his deathbed. He will be surrounded by his loved ones, obviously he has plenty.
It was done in a nice way, he loves is family, amazing father and I found those very clips funny.
Erm, my father was in the military. More than once my mother had to pack up and move a family across the country or to another continent altogether, usually all on her own. She knew that when she married my father. It came with the territory. And yes, sometimes he put in for the transfer on a whim. That’s what a lot of young men do, they think about their careers before they think about their families inconvenience. Is it great? No. Do they grow out of it with the help of their patient wives? Yes. The good ones do. What are you suggesting? That Victoria is some abused wife? You do realize this was a documentary about David primary, right? Have you forgotten that Victoria was already immensely successful in her own right and has had a thriving career ever since? Is this woman married? Ever been in a long term relationship? Doesn’t every married couple bug one another about the others stories that might not be quite accurate? She goes on about his “obsessive compulsive” behaviour in her “article”. Is she now belittling him or accusing him of being a bad person because he might have OCD? SERIOUSLY? I hope she’s as tranquil as a rock and does not have any annoying quirks …. It wasn’t HIS narrative. It was HER narrative. Geezuz …. This woman sounds petty and bitter. She also references D.A. Pennebaker … he also did documentaries of bands where he didn’t delve into all their dirty laundry. He portrayed a portrait of a particular aspect of the band. People are allowed to select what story they tell. This was HIS project. Go do your own documentary then, woman. Or does every docuseries HAVE to highlight only nasty things? Augh, this rubbed me the wrong way. Have you ever met a man who achieved greatness who didn’t have that same drive and obsession with whatever it is they do? Ffs ….. what was he supposed to do? Give up football to sit at home with Victoria and the kids all day? If he did this woman would be calling him a loser.
Don’t really get need to nitpick the doc or their relationship. I admire how they worked thru the difficulties of their relationship and stayed dedicated to their marriage and family. They were and still are clearly so in love.
Beckham documentary was very entertaining…
I was aware of the Beckhams and their celebrity prominence without ever actually following their lives.
So I was interested to watch the documentary.
I found it a fascinating viewing, impressed that the referencing of one of the most painful times in their relationship, David's affair/s, was in my view handled with diplomacy and avoided the crass grandstanding sensationalism that mainstream media dishes out to incite public outrage.
Those episodes in the lives of couples are strictly their own business but part of the Beckhams strength is their acknowledgement of said affairs without turning it into a circus.
David Beckham is undoubtedly as flawed as the rest of us yet the degree of hatred, vilification and malevolent abuse hurled at him by an obsessive and irrational football public for years over a game incident which even the other player involved admitted years later he initiated and that Beckham was unjustly sent from the game over, thereby contributing arguably to England losing the game.
The deluge of abuse, hatred, obscenities a deranged public hurled every time he ran onto the field thereafter illustrates the sheer courage and humility as Beckham returned time and again onto the field to face his tormentors and play his heart out.
The man should have been mentally destroyed by the punishingly destructive abuse he was unremittingly bombarded with each and every time he played.
So he has OCD ? Who cares ? Many greats in other fields share this same intense attention to detail, are we to fault all of them too ? I think not.
This documentary elevated my interest, and now, huge respect for a couple who quite obviously have applied a lot of hard work into preserving and growing their relationship and more strength to them.
This is a man who eschewed privilege and chose to queue for 12 hours to pay his respects to his beloved Queen Elizabeth ll with the everyday people on the street, quite possibly many of whom were the very ones who vilified him so long ago.
Like I said, a man of outstanding courage.
To David and Victoria Beckham ........RESPECT ‼
Totally agree. I made the same points when I shared the documentary with my friends.
So well put
Brilliantly put.
David Beckham is more of a Prince in character than scruffy entitled Harry will ever be love to see Sir David Beckham an English man to be proud of
YES, YES, YEEEEES 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏!!!
Victoria's father, Mr Adams, was from a very impoverished part of North London, Edmonton, circa 1950. Mr. Adams trained as an Electrician and worked very hard, the RR he purchased was a used, older model, he earned his money, it was a culture here in 1970's, Cash and Flash. This is all fact, my husband attended school with Mr Adams, they were good friends. Trust me Edmonton was the toilet of North London back then, with extreme poverty, the only way out was to work 24/7.
Thanks for your input. David trying to make her look like a liar.
Megyn I love your show but on this one you guys are way off. He wasn't trying to crontrol the narrative, It's just bickering and humour
My thought exactly, This is so low for Megyn.
Well said, agreed
I don’t know why anyone’s life and documentary is for anyone to pull apart and judge. We’re all human. Obviously they’ll be mistake that will be made. Do they need to publicize their mistakes and pain for the world to see? Again! NO! It’s for them to work it out privately and they obviously did and choose to stick by each other and grow together. We should be happy for them! Often times, someone makes a mistake and tries their best to correct it but divorce is much easier in the US so here we go. I actually respect them more for working things out, sticking together and now look how happy they are. And the documentary is about David overall life, not just one part of his life. Their was actually a lot to learn from his life like hard work, difficult decisions, heartbreak within a career. The need to adjust and be adaptable. Lots of love and support. Their’s a lot more to the documentary than a cheating scandal.
Ditto.. well said
They put their life out there it's going to be pulled apart
They stuck with the brand!
@@mjq243Bro shut up with the brand. If you saw the doc and still talk about a brand then shame on you. They were honest and real.
@@BM-qz4rs not a bro bro - saw it and I can’t help it if you’re that naive about a public persona and the saving of a multi million dollar empire. Also don’t tell me to shut up I’m entitled to my opinion.
Ladies you must not watch enough British tv to realize that that is the dry British humour…its the best and I love it as a Canadian. Good for the Beckhams,they made it last no matter what with all their fame…it must not be easy
Holy shit...if they can’t handle Brit humour then they’d be in tears at our Aussie humour 😂😂😂
I agree with everything you said. The Beckhams have not had it easy but they have powered through which I admire.
Oh please , the rolls Royce was humour
Neither of these women know what they are talking about! Good for the Beckhams!!
I’m seeing a whole lot of ick.
Loved the documentary! It is English humour! This couple is real and they have been through the wringer which no one really knew! People are always trying to pull others down ! Just be happy for them!! Love this couple! Love English humour, they can laugh at themselves. Their love has stood the test of time .. not many would be able to go through what David went through!! His family is his rock, his dad is his hero. What an amazing guy! Best documentary I have watched in years! True fairy tale
I haven’t watched it, but I remember being in the UK when he was cheating, and Victoria had magazine interviews and photo shoots and handled herself with such class. I heard she doesn’t smile because she doesn’t like her smile. I have so much respect for her. And, if she wanted to get a facial, she should because she has her own beauty empire, and it is important to keep feeling and looking her best.
Agree with what you say. The bit about her going to "work" then him questioning her and her saying a facial, was mucking about. She works so hard with her business but that was the weekend probably and why he was asking where she was off to and questioned "work"? Was a funny moment showing what they're like together. Just lovely. Reminds me of my husband and how he is with me sometimes. Just ribbing in jest
@@christinerogers8734 That’s how I always saw their relationship. I admired their close family, and know they have a lot of fun together. Staying together for so long is rare these days. Most of the credit goes to her, though. I did gain a lot of respect for David when he stood in a long line to pay respects to the queen last year when she lay in state.
You should watch it then. They are both incredible people and love each other. End of.
Loved Victoria and David and their doco. I loved Victoria even more after watching the Doco.
Me too!
Oh Maureen, there’s nothing wrong in their documentary. Get real!
People loves and quick to jump judging on someone. You focused on all negative but never see how they love each other and as a family unit.
You forgot that DB was in his 20’s , famous not only because he was good looking but with his talent and football skills.
If he is OCD, who cares?
Oh, give it a rest, this is British humour, no doubt they rib each other all the time, nobody takes it seriously. Footballer's sign with clubs, they're not drafted. Victoria knows football is everything to footballers. You really don't get it, so stop with your nonsense.
Oh Maureen, you are really overthinking the “Rolls Royce bit” it’s call British sarcasm/humour! Aussies are exactly the same!
There's nothing wrong in David fact-checking his wife when she's telling a blatant lie.
You have no idea what you are talking about - that is British humour and the sign of a strong marriage where they can laugh at each other. She was called posh spice for a reason, hence the rolls Royce. My word, a little knowledge and you have decided on the narrative, that says more about you than them. And I am no fan of either of them, but if you are going to spout then at least be fair. They look happy to me and have gone through a lot. Give them a break, this is not a Disney movie, this is real life.
Hello Megyn. I loved my three month tour of US many years back and your country and people, but England is different to US.
Remember that Victoria played up "Posh" in Spice Girls, as if a character. Also the way you know an English or British person likes you is that they really take the Mickey.
I assume you have seen a British TV comedy, based on working class humour, but for any reading that have not, the star is not the hero, as in US, but the one who never quite gets it right, in other words the little guy who will never make it, but gets by having a laugh and getting laughed at, like a Charlie Chaplin or a Stan Laurel.
To succeed too much, or be a winner every time just would not get the same feeling of being someone you could relate to. Beckham getting sent off, in a game that put England out of a World Cup, allows him to be a flawed hero.
American here, what does "take the Mickey" mean?
Also I really appreciate your insight in explaining the difference in who Americans and British consider to be the star of a sitcom. Very interesting and I learned something new, thank you!
@@leslie6938 "Taking the Mickey" is a polite version. I would normally, as a blunt Yorkshireman, say something with four letters, beginning with "p" instead of "Mickey". A young Texan was rather taken aback when I said it there, but said that she loved how I talked.
It is poking fun at someone in a very sarcastic, cruel way, to show that you can, not because you hate them, but because you are mates. Australians are very good at it. They are very like northern English folk, liking swearing, drinking, pies, chips with gravy, cricket, rugby league and making your mates look as stupid as possible to keep them from thinking they are better than you. You may have seen a film with an Aussie character like that?
"Are you really American or just taking the ....?" could have been my response, assuming we were buddies.
@@leslie6938 Taking the piss.
🇬🇧 Megyn you were right initially. Don't be swayed by Maureen she has absolutely no understanding of British culture, communication and sarcasm. As a Brit, I can categorically say that she is cringingly WAY off the mark about their interactions. Discussion is important but please have a more worldly guest
"Of course, I love my family. But football is everything for me." If this is a joke, then I am Saint Cecilia. The expression on Victoria's 🌹 face. Kudos to her. The heart of the Beckham family. ❤️🌹👑 ...I hope the football player realizes that.
Maureen and Megyn give it a break. It was a lovely story. They are a lovely couple. Stop making trouble.
Yes, these 2 should just chill. Obviously envious of others.
Exactly. They are making issues that are not issues
Megan’s guest is so off. Obviously doesn’t understand British humour
I loved the documentary! How come you are so darn critical of them?
I’m married the a Brit for25 years so British humour was surprising at first but it is the funniest humour on the planet
They don’t get the British humor - please be more professional and keep giving news no gossip
That woman got this so wrong…. Americans just don’t get our British sense of humour or irony That's very clear A lot of what David said was tongue in cheek !!!
He was a premiership footballer for heavens sake he went where he was TRANSFERRED to And don’t underestimate Victoria she’s one hec of a savvy business woman
David is also one of the most genuine guys you’ll ever meet
Not all Americans are humorless. I thought the Rolls Royce moment was cute and it made me chuckle. There was a lot of teasing between the the two Beckhams which made them very likable. The reality in the series was part of what made it alluring and evoked admiration from viewers for both people.
In addition, I agree with all who commented about the life of team sport athletes. They trade or cut people with very few words and suddenly the player’s life changes. It happens in all team sports. I just watched Moneyball recently and remembered the scene in which the characters played by Brad Pitt and Jonah Goldberg “rehearsed” how to tell a player he’s moving from one city to another across the country to play in a game that very night. Anyone who knows how trading works would never have the discussion these two ladies had today. Neither of them know anything about the subject they were discussing. Let me add, I am a regular viewer of Megyn’s show and won’t stop watching just because today was a bit of a miss.
I think they have a cute relationship. I think they raz each other. My husband and I do this all of the time.
David & Victoria Beckham are human. They lived their lives in the public. Which of us is perfect? They managed to raise four children. He was successful at football, and she had lately accomplished A LOT with her fashion and beauty brand. They managed to stay together and are a close family.
They have achieved a lot over the years, and I did not see them feeling sorry for themselves. (It was not the central theme of their documentary.)
I do not think it is even closely comparable to Meghan and Harry’s “documentary”. They should have waited until they achieved something before making a documentary. (But I don’t think they’ll be together anymore in twenty years.)
You guys have no clue about British sensibility.
I totally disagree with the opinions expressed in this video. There is a difference in American and English humour and Americans often don’t get the subtleties of our irony. The rolls Royce thing was hilarious. DB saying that football was more important than his family was just him convincing his new club that he was fully committed and wouldn’t be distracted. If he had affairs then so what? That’s between him and his family. It was alluded to and that was all that was needed. There was video footage to show all of his ups and downs, so there was no misrepresentation. I thought it was a great documentary of a life well lived and I resent people like this woman who want to turn it into something more sinister. Sometimes you just have to look at the evidence and what we have with the Beckhams is a loving, happy family.
I love the Beckhams and i Loved the documentary!
This segment is meaningless
What do you mean Victoria doesn't say anything publicly? Victoria is a well respected fashion designer who speaks publicly all the time about her love for her family & growing career. David did not grill her.... he's calling her out for pretending they were working class. Have a sense of humor please. Also stop calling people crazy & insane for having OCD, that's not cool ladies!!
I mean he’s teasing her. It’s funny.
You guys are not getting British humour
OMG, they have clearly no idea what it takes to be a football player and how it works with the transfers. Totally made themselves look ridiculous by misinterpreting their British ways.
As an American I didn’t know much about them and I loved the documentary 🥰 they both seemed like very nice people ( not perfect of course) with strong work ethic. The children seemed to have turned out well also. I can even appreciate European football now and I normally don’t care for sports 😉🤣
Yeah, I don’t know if I agree with all this analysis. Celebrities always want to put their best foot forward. If Victoria Beckham didn’t want to be there, she wouldn’t be.
I think you got the British humor so wrong here. I saw nothing but grace here. Really liked it! Who is brutally honesty in those documentaries anyway. I love their bond ❤
This discussion was more revealing about Megyn and guest then Beckham’s…..too funny!
Maureen needs to get a life!!
Love Megan Kelly and she's been spot on about H&M but this interview about The Beckham series wasn't all correct about them. The bit about the Rolls Royce was him ribbing her about her dad having a rolls royce. That's their banter. My husband is like that with me. English humour. Victoria has a great sense of humour.. I've read her book. She said she hated her dad picking her up from school in Rolls because she was bullied at school. She says her dad was working class but worked hard building up his business. She said that's where she gets working hard from. Said her family weren't mega rich but comfortable. There's no conparison of that moment to when Markle did mocking curtsey! The series made you realise what a strong woman she is and he adores her
Why were you laughing at the verbal abuse of David against Posh?!
That clip with David sticking his head in while Victoria was being interviewed is staged. He is not outside listening, she is in on this. The whole thing is controlled and staged.
But what an annoying man he is, I don´t understand why everyone seems to love him so much.
What a horrible woman Maureen is. They are a fabulous family....
Have to completely disagree with this one. One massive missing factor: British Sense of Humour - believe me, Posh wears the trousers not Becks.
Sportsmen and women move so fast - throwback to Lamar Odom moving within hours leaving Khloe Kardashian to move their lives to Dallas.
Exactly Jane! 👏They clearly don’t get the British banter style humour. 🤷♀️
@@RannieH71100% agree
Are you sure it’s not a mix of that and Narcissism? HG Tudor would be able to tell!
These documentaries aren't what we think they are. True. I always thought documentaries were true and factual. They're not. One example, Making a murderer verses Convicting a murderer. Gives us a lot to think about. Believe half of what you see and none of what you hear.
What you wrote is very true.
And some so called documentaries are just made to influence the public opinion.
What a total waste of space this woman / complainant is. For crying out loud, it was just a documentary...and highly entertaining and insightful at that. Should we honestly expect the Beckhams to vomit out their entire life and try to "defend" themselves to the world at large, for our amusement? As to the part of this discussion that attempts to make something out of the "class" moment between Becks and Posh, I'm speechless. They just didn't get it. Stupid people making nonsense out of nothing - obviously, just trying to grab some eye-balls and make some money. 'Cos that's what they do.
This blonde lady has nothing to do just gossip on beckhams..
She's earning the money on their backs..
Supreme jealousy..
I love the documentary, I think you are reading wayyyyy to much into this. My goodness, it’s humour. They worked through so much and they love each other. No marriage is perfect but it’s perfect for them.
love the beckhams ❤ It english humour 😂
They are not “jabs!” - The US & UK just vibe differently! We Brits just don’t like to take ourselves as seriously. David did Victoria a favour - We love Victoria more! That’s how we do! 🇬🇧
What is wrong with a woman moving with her husband and supporting him??????
