The England and Manchester United legend admitted it was “very difficult” filming the award-winning, four-part documentary.

The show called”Beckham” covered tough and controversial moments from his 1992-2013 playing career and marriage dating back to 1999.
The Inter Miami co-owner discussed his notorious red card against Argentina at the 1998 World Cup, as well as rumours of being unfaithful to Victoria.
Now the 115-cap star, 49, has explained why he went ahead with the docu-series.
The Hollywood Reporter quote Beckham as saying: “It was one of those things I knew if I was gonna make it, I was going make it once… it was really difficult.
“It took me a long time to come to terms with the fact I was going to make it but there were a few reasons why we wanted to make it.
“Through the pandemic, that’s when documentaries really exploded.
“It was coming up to the 10-year anniversary of my retirement and I thought, ‘Maybe this is the right time’.”
However, Beckham also confessed the uncomfortable side of opening up on camera to the world.

He said: “I can’t lie, it worried me, it made me nervous, it made Victoria nervous.
“I wouldn’t say I hated it, I just would say it was very difficult.
“We loved the results. But we were talking about things in my career that I’d never spoken about before.”
Such frank talking made the series as popular with critics as with fans.
That success peaked with an Emmy Award earlier this month in the Documentary or Nonfiction Series category.
