Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's relationship with David and Victoria Beckham is reportedly "over" with the former footballer reportedly left "bloody furious" about the situation.The Duke has had a close bond with David, who is known to have been close with the royal family for many years, the Mirror reports.Over the years, the two men have been spotted together at sporting events and Victoria was said to be a big supporter of Meghan when she first moved to the UK, offering her tips and advice.However, shortly after the Sussexes stepped down from their royal roles in 2020, it was reported that the Duke contacted David out of the blue and accused Victoria of leaking stories about Meghan.At the time a number of stories about Meghan's beauty regime had leaked and the former Suits actress believed that the Spice Girls Star may have let the information slip.David was reportedly very upset by the allegation however the phone call was said to be "very polite but still pretty awkward".An insider previously told The Sun: "Inexplicably, [Meghan] feared Victoria was behind it — I mean, the idea that Victoria Beckham would be personally ringing journalists to give them a scoop is ridiculous — and spoke to Harry about it. "Harry is very protective of Meghan, and decided to deal with the matter head-on, by directly contacting his good pal, David. “He quickly put Harry right, and the two men agreed to move on — but it certainly made things awkward for a while.”It's believed that after the accusation, their friendship never fully recovered and the two couples haven't spent much time together since, which has been reflected in their lack of joint appearances at public events.
