A stunned Cohen responded: “Wow.”
The Beckhams’ alleged feud with the Sussexes apparently dates back to 2018.
The row is believed to have escalated when the Sussexes allegedly accused the Beckhams of leaking stories about them to the press, while royal biographers claimed Meghan “didn’t like the footballer’s friendship with Prince William”.
Fresh speculation about their relationship emerged in May 2024, when, the Mail understands, King Charles met David Beckham to discuss his charitable foundation while Prince Harry was in the country.
Previously, the Duke of Sussex had said his father was too busy attending to “other priorities” to see him while he was in the UK.
David and Victoria Beckham were guests at her wedding to Prince Harry in Windsor in 2018.
Notably, Meghan and Harry were not invited to Brooklyn’s wedding to American heiress Nicola Peltz in April 2022.

Following the news of King Charles’ cancer diagnosis earlier this year, Harry quickly returned to the UK to be at his father’s side, although their reunion was reported to have lasted less than 45 minutes (pictured in 2022).
The couple moved to California in 2020 with their son, Prince Archie, when they stopped working as royals. Princess Lilibet was born a year later, in 2021.
In his six-part Netflix series from December 2022, Harry said of his and Meghan’s move to California: “We are exactly where we are supposed to be.” But then the duke added: “I miss the UK.”

“I’m grateful for the fact that I was able to get on a plane and go see him and spend time with him,” he said on ABC’s Good Morning America a few days after the visit. “Any illness, any illness, brings families together.”
But there may be a long road to reconciliation ahead of Harry, as the Duke’s previous revelations in his memoirs and during his Netflix show caused potentially irreversible damage.
