A blockbuster new book that has dished the dirt on the life, loves, travel and riches of David Beckham has reignited former New Zealand Prime Minister Sir John Key’s alleged slur about the ex-footballer.

The contents of the just-released ‘The House of Beckham: Money, Sex and Power’ has been lapped up by Britain’s tabloid press.

That includes multiple allegations of Beckham cheating on his wife and former Spice Girl, Victoria, blazing rows between the pair which later saw fellow residents of a complex they lived in starting a petition to force them out, the multi-million-pound sums Beckham splashed in an effort to save Victoria’s ailing fashion business, why the couple’s relationship with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle broke down, and how just contrived the couple’s Beckham Netflix series was.

Written by British investigative journalist Tom Bower, it also features Beckham’s 2008 trip to New Zealand when he was playing for US club team LA Galaxy.

That includes what led to Key’s later alleged description of Beckham as being as thick as bats.
