Becks was in the middle of his first season at Real Madrid when his former assistant claimed she had slept with him on numerous occasions.
While Beckham denied anything had happened, the story went everywhere, with the world's media splashing it on their front page - ultimately putting his marriage under strain.
In an interview at the time, Loos said she and the sport icon grew very close.
"We were just locked into each other all night conversation-wise, other people noticed ... we just connected," the model said.
"I think the chemistry between David and I was so strong ... people were aware and they weren't very happy."
She then recalled a night out when the pair ended up going back to a hotel room and sleeping together.
"He knows how to please. He's not afraid of a woman's body. He seems to know what he's doing," she said.
And despite the ex-Manchester United player's denial that anything happened, Loos said she could prove it as she knew things only someone who had slept with him would know.
"There is something I know about him, an intimate part of his body that I think only women who've been in bed with him would know," she said.
When asked if she meant he'd been circumcised, Loos told the outlet: "I'm not talking about that. If I do ever need to talk about that, it will be in a court, not on television."
In the documentary, Beckham and Victoria both open up about how the alleged revelations affected he and Becks, pushing them to breaking point.
"It was the hardest period because it felt like the world was against us," the mother-of-four said in the documentary.
"Here’s the thing — we were against each other if I’m being completely honest.
“You know, up until Madrid sometimes it felt like us against everybody else but we were together, we were connected, we had each other.
“But when we were in Spain, it didn’t really feel like we had each other either.
“And that’s sad. 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.”
Beckham is available to watch on Netflix now.
