David and Victoria Beckham are one of the most recognized celebrity couples in the world. The couple, who has been happily married for more than two decades, boasts of having a large legion of followers on social networks. It was in 1997 when they began their relationship, and since then, they have consolidated a large family with their four children, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper. Despite everything, the couple has been involved in several rumors from breakups and infidelities, but there have been few occasions in which details of their relationship are known through themselves. This has been the case in the last few hours.

Recently, David Beckham reappeared on SiriusXM’s This Life of Mine with James Corden and revealed how his love for Victoria developed throughout their relationship and what were the reasons he “chose” her. “I really liked him,” the former soccer player expressed in the program.

“I just liked her. I didn’t know what she was like as a person. I actually liked her like most people did at the time, and I didn’t know who I was going to marry or who I was going to be with for the rest of my life. “I didn’t realize how strong she was, and that’s what really attracted me to her more than anything,” the model also revealed.

The former soccer player admitted that the singer is “beautiful” and “sexy”, but admitted that it was not for that reason that his love for her grew exponentially. “I like a strong woman and I like the fact that she works hard. I like the fact that she is a great mother,” he said. “I like the fact that she takes care of me sometimes, most of the time, and you know, we’ve created this life with four amazing children, who are the most important things in our life, that’s why I chose Victoria, because of the way she runs the family,” Beckham explained.

Throughout their relationship, the couple has faced a lot of rumors about infidelities. Despite everything, they have remained united. Their love blossomed in 1997, and a year later they announced their engagement. That same year, in 1998, they announced that they would become parents. In March 1999, they welcomed their first child, Brooklyn.

It was in July 1999 when the couple married at Luttrellstown Castle (Dublin). In 2002, they announced they were expecting their second child, who was born that same September: Romeo. In February 2005, their third child Cruz was born. In January 2011, the couple announced that they were expecting their fourth child. In July of the same year, they welcomed their first daughter, Harper. Now, the couple celebrates their large family and this year they will also celebrate 25 years of marriage. Without a doubt, they are one of the most recognized couples in the world.
