Once friends, nothing is going well between the Sussexes and the Beckhams. Moreover, it could well be that Victoria Beckham recently scored a point by taking revenge on her now rival. Indeed, the ex-Spice girl today seems to be rubbing her handsa humiliating situation that Meghan Markle had to face.
It was in spring 2022, following a call from Prince Harry that this beautiful friendship which had started under the best auspices, finally broke down. Indeed, Victoria Beckham has always beengreat support to the Duchess of Sussex, particularly upon her arrival in the royal family, not hesitating to take her under her wing, as reported in an article dated July 29, 2023 from Daily Mail.
Would Victoria Beckham have her revenge on her rival, Meghan Markle?
Since then, accusations coming from the Sussex couple against David Beckham’s wife shattered this beautiful friendship. At a tense phone call with the former footballer, Prince Harry would have suspected Victoria Beckham of leaking private information to the press. Allegations which then put David Beckham in black anger to the point that he decided with his wife to cut ties with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
The two women have now moved on although their relationship is still frosty. Meghan Markle has just launched, on March 14, 2024, her new well-being and lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. However, despite its 624,000 followers on Instagram, this new activity seems to have difficulty taking off, not meeting the expected success. A situation which is therefore a priori at a standstill.
Victoria Beckham and Meghan Markle engage in a merciless match
A flop who could well do the business of Meghan Markle’s rival, Victoria Beckham, according to the assumptions of a royal expert who wonders: “it would be the final revengeis not it ?”. But that’s not all. A few months earlier, in December 2023, another event had greatly displeased Prince Harry’s wife. While they always remained close to the Obama familya photo in which the Beckhams were photographed alongside former President of the United States, Barack Obama, on the occasion of a charity evening, would have put Meghan Markle beside herself, according to the words of a close source interviewed by Closer.
It also seems that since then, the Obama family has decided to take this distance with the Sussexes out of respect for the late Queen Elizabeth II. A decision experienced, according to the words of a royal expert, as a humiliation by Meghan Markle. She confides: “It’s a new humiliating slap. The Obamas were Meghan’s dream ticket to political success and she worked hard to build their relationship.”.

The rivalry between Meghan Markle and Victoria Beckham agitates the press
And the least we can say is that between Beckham and the Sussexes, the rivalry rages. In an article from the British tabloid The Sun, the comparisons are going well. According to the latter, the Beckhams would have won one more revenge on the Sussexes thanks to the documentary Netflix by David Beckham by counting 208.5 million hours viewing in 2023, versus 72.9 million hours for the Sussex documentary series, almost three times less. A match won hands down by the Beckhams.
Besides, everything seems to be smiling on Beckham who, unlike Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, seem to be in the good books of King Charles III. And for good reason, photographed alongside him, the football star has just been named new ambassador from the Fondation du Roi as he shared on his Instagram account on June 4. An honor for the one who is now close to the sovereign of the British crown as well as his heir, Prince William, and his wife Kate Middleton.
