Sex, money & power... the secrets behind the House of Beckham

- TOM BRYANT

THE Beckhams are bracing for the release of a book that threatens to put their marriage under the spotlight all over again.

Investigative journalist Tom Bower told our sister paper the Mirror that his latest release, The House of Beckham: Money, Sex and Power, contains startling revelations.

Asked whether it features any new details about David's alleged affairs, or any new allegations, he said: "Those who want to know about Beckham's sex life won't be disappointed." Bower previously spent Netflix weeks with direct access to Simon Cowell while researching his book on the music mogul.

In it, he revealed how Simon had a fling with fellow X Factor judge Dannii Minogue. But this time Bower says that he did not even bother requesting access to his subjects.

He said of his reasoning: "One, I knew they would say no.

"And secondly they have given thousands of interviews and I knew they wouldn't answer my questions."

He said that the pair spent "two long sessions" with a senior member of his team though, which he described as "amicable".

Despite this, he added: "The Beckhams made sure that quite a lot of people wouldn't talk to me.

"But I did find enough people to talk to and got a lot of interesting revelations.
