Fans will get an insight into the real lives of the Beckhams in a new Netflix documentary: Beckham.
The multi-part series focused on David Beckham's career is coming out later this year and Netflix says it will "go beyond the shine of stardom".
The former Manchester United star will be under the microscope, and spoke to media at the premiere. The documentary features stars such as Alex Ferguson, Eric Cantona, Gary Neville and more.
In recent times, Beckham's attention has been on Major League Soccer in the United States. After a period with LA Galaxy as a player, he is now a co-owner of the Inter Miami franchise - with Lionel Messi tearing up the MLS.

Obviously there was a couple of people straight after I said it and it was edited very well
that said it definitely changed me but I don't think it changed me, you know, I think that
obviously that kind of scrutiny and that kind of attention at the time never affected me
on the field, that's for sure, that's why I continue to play for Manchester United and
I continue to be in Sir Alex Wilson's team but maybe certain parts did change me.
How hard was that for you to kind of look back on it, revisit it and what were your
memories of that?
To be honest it was one of the toughest moments because when I decided to do this, you know,
I wanted to do it right, I wanted, I'm never going to do a live documentary again and I
think it was an important moment to talk about, you know, I'd never really talked about it,
I'd never really looked back because, you know, even though there was so much going
on around me at that time, I really kind of just, you know, I was with Manchester United,
I was protected by Sir Alex Wilson and my team mates and the fans, so I really wasn't
aware of exactly what was going on but looking back and seeing the archive and seeing everything,
you know, that for me...
Favourite David Beckham haircut?
Have I healed from it? I suppose doing this documentary was part of that process, you
know, I'd never really sat down and talked about it in such detail. Obviously my family
and friends knew what I went through personally, you know, and professionally but sitting down
and going through it in detail and looking at the archive and looking at stuff that I'd
probably never seen before, that was quite difficult and then realising how difficult
it was at the time, you know, on the pitch and off the pitch, so yeah, it was a really
difficult time but I suppose this is all part of the healing process.
Don't get me emotional!
In today's world, the football world and the pop star world...
I know, there's a lot of noise around Taylor at the moment. You know what, I just got asked
about that and you know what, Taylor's an amazing talent and she's an amazing person
and she deserves to be happy and, you know, whatever she does and whoever she's with,
as long as she's happy that's the most important thing and it's the same with me and Victoria,
you know, we've been together now for 26 years, almost three decades, we've got amazing
kids, we've built businesses but we make time for each other, we respect each other and
we love our kids so, you know, you have to work hard at these things and yes, we've been
together for a long time.
You know what, I hope they watch it, they have great memories because, you know, obviously
when I started my career in the 90s in Manchester, it was a great time in Manchester at that
time, you know, there was amazing music and amazing scenes to be around and Manchester
United were one of the most successful teams, you know, in football so to be part of that,
you know, I hope people look back and, you know, it's like wearing a fragrance or, you
know, being in a certain place, it reminds you of something that was very special and
I hope that people watch this and feel special and remind them of good memories.
