”Marriage is difficult at times” – David Beckham Speaks on Ups and Downs of His 19 Year Marriage
Retired English football star, David Beckham, says the secret to he and Victoria‘s marriage is being able to work through the tough times.
David opened up about his married life during an appearance on radio show “Desert Island Discs”, where he admitted he has made mistakes in his marriage but insists that he and his wife of 19 years will always stay together because they love each other, Dailymail reports.
David, who married the former Spice Girl in 1999, also explained that their union works due to their strong moral backgrounds, as well as their ability to discuss any ‘mistakes’.
He told presenter Kirsty Young:
“We’ve got strong parents. We were brought up with the right values. Of course you make mistakes over the years, and we all know marriage is difficult at times but it’s about working through it. Whenever we’ve come up against tough times we know each other better than anyone knows us, so we talk.”
He dispelled rumors of staying together to keep the money-spinning “Brand Beckham” intact. Talking about this, David said:
“We stay together because we love each other, and because we have four wonderful children, he added”
The power couple met at a Manchester United game in 1997, and got married at Luttrellstown Castle in Ireland. They have four children together – Brooklyn, 17, Romeo, 14, Cruz, eleven and five-year-old Harper.
