Rebecca Loos lives a very different life now compared to her time splashed across the front page of newspapers following her allegations of an affair with David Beckham.
The former Dutch glamour model hit headlines back in 2004 following her explosive claims of an affair with the England footballer when she was working as his personal assistant.
In an interview with Sky at the time, Loos claimed that she and Becks, who was and still is married to wife, Victoria, ‘just connected’.
She went on to claim: “I think the chemistry between David and I was so strong… people were aware and they weren’t very happy.”

She even claimed to have ‘intimate’ knowledge of the former Manchester United player that ‘only women who've been in bed with him would know’.
While Beckham denied that anything had happened, the story went everywhere - something Victoria has since branded a ‘nightmare’.
Opening up about the alleged affair on the recently released Beckham documentary, she said: "It was the hardest period because it felt like the world was against us.
"Here's the thing - we were against each other if I'm being completely honest.

"I can't even begin to tell you how hard it was and how it affected me. It was a nightmare.
"It was an absolute circus - and everyone loves it when the circus comes to town, right? Unless you're in it."
Her husband added: "There were some horrible stories which were difficult to deal with.
"It was the first time that me and Victoria had been put under that kind of pressure in our marriage."
In the wake of her claims, Loos ended up with a media career, appearing on a host of reality shows including The Farm, Celebrity Love Island and The X Factor: Battle of the Stars, where she was met with some scathing comments from judge Sharon Osbourne.

Loos now lives a life firmly out of the limelight, after marrying Norwegian doctor Sven Christjar Skaiaa, whom she met on reality show 71 Degrees North.
The couple live in Norway with their two sons, where Loos works as yoga and meditation instructor and part-time medical assistant.
Her Instagram profile shows Loos partaking in a series of wholesome hobbies, alongside yoga and meditation, she’s also fond of a bit of hiking, foraging and spending time with her family.
In one recent post of her showing off her yoga moves, Loos wrote: “Hello October. Letting go and finding strength in the mountains of life.”
