KEY POINTS

  • Prince Harry and David Beckham had an awkward exchange a few months ago
  • Prince Harry confronted David Beckham over the leaked information about Meghan Markle
  • Prince Harry is protective of Meghan Markle

Prince Harry recently confronted David Beckham after he learned that some details of their conversation with Meghan Markle had been leaked to the media.

A source told The Sun that the Duke of Sussex is very protective of his wife that’s why he wanted to get down to the bottom of the issue.

When Markle first moved to London before her wedding to Prince Harry, she forged a friendship with Victoria Beckham. The two women hit it off immediately, and they had been in constant communication with each other.

“When Meghan moved to London, Victoria shared a whole bunch of beauty tips but not long after, some of these emerged in print and Meghan was furious. Inexplicably, she 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,” the source said.

During Prince Harry and David’s conversation, it became evident that the latter was mortified. Victoria’s husband also denied that his wife had anything to do with the leaked information.

Prince Harry, Markle, and the Beckhams agreed to move on from the incident. And the Sussexes, later on, realized that the leak must have come from a beauty salon.

At present, the Sussexes and the Beckhams are in good terms. But it took them a while to repair their relationship.

In September, Victoria seemed unfazed by the alleged confrontation between her husband and Prince Harry when she gushed over the Duchess of Sussex while speaking with Glamour.

At that time, the Spice Girls member praised one of Markle’s statements about kindness.

“I liked what Meghan Markle said at the British Fashion Awards, that it used to be cool to be cruel, and now it’s cool to be kind. Kindness was always at the core of Girl Power,” she said.
