David Beckham has a lot in common with Travis Kelce. Both are well respected athletes in their discipline who suddenly faced the looming fame of a great pop star. Kelce, celebrated for his achievements in the NFL and his three Super Bowl rings, is currently facing a lot of media attention after starting a relationship with Taylor Swift in 2023.
Similarly, Beckham, a football legend and former Manchester United and Real Madrid player, among other teams, experienced intense media scrutiny when he married Posh Spice, Victoria Beckham, in 1991, when the Spice Girls were at the top of the UK music charts. United.
Now, David Beckham has compared his situation to what Travis Kelce is looking at every single time that Taylo Swift attends one of his games, like when Victoria Beckham use to go to Becks games, especially when it comes to tolerating opposing fans actions against them.

The tough times they will have at public events
Victoria Beckham revealed in her husband’s recent documentary she was left ‘hurt and embarrassed’ when she was taunted at David’s soccer games. 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.
“Hopefully that’s improved. It’s ridiculous that we’re even talking about it. 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,” he said.
There were offensive songs about her and Taylor has also suffered from verbal abuse, something that David is strongly against and hopes that things get better for her and Travis.
