David Beckham compares brutal treatment his wife Victoria endured at his football matches to the nasty comments Taylor Swift receives at Travis Kelce’s matches

David Beckham has compared the brutal treatment his wife Victoria endured at his football games to the nasty comments Taylor Swift receives at Travis Kelce’s games.

Victoria, 50, revealed in her husband’s recent documentary she was left ‘hurt and embarrassed’ when she was taunted at husband David’s football games.

The Spice Girl recalled the abuse she received as she spoke about dating the footballer after fans turned on him in the aftermath of the 1998 World Cup.

David, 49, was blamed for England’s defeat after lashing out at Diego Simeone, sparking a horrific campaign of hate and abuse from fans.

On Thursday, David fronted an Emmy Extra Edition cover of VARIETY and discussed the negative treatment of women dating a famous athlete, as shown in the coverage of Taylor Swift at Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs games.

I think back in the day with Victoria going to games, the fans were quite brutal. They sang songs about her. But I’m sure Taylor’s strong enough to handle whatever.’

Elsewhere, on an apology note David and Victoria found on their car following the release of his BECKHAM documentary, he said: ‘It read, “We’re sorry how you were treated.” I’ve got the letter still. But that’s how people, I think, felt after the documentary.’

It comes after David confessed in his Netflix documentary BECKHAM: ‘They start singing songs about Victoria.

‘There was one song she’d kill me for singing – every football fan sang this song…’

Victoria then jumped in to reveal the taunt was: ‘P osh Spice takes it up the a**e.’

She continued: ‘Excuse my language, not very ladylike. But 75,000 people singing that, it’s embarrassing, it’s hurtful.
