Rebecca Loos (born Rebecca Loos Bartholdi; 19 June 1977) is a Spanish-born Anglo-Dutch model and media personality, who came to media attention following claims that she conducted an affair with the married footballer David Beckham and later with his younger brother Harry Beckham — while employed as the Beckhams personal assistant. These allegations made her into a media personality, and she has since appeared on several reality television series, magazine covers and in other media. ==Personal life== Loos was born in Madrid, Spain, but has Dutch citizenship.〔(Official Website )〕 Her father was Leonard Loos Bartholdi, a Dutch diplomat, and her mother, Elizabeth Loos, is originally from Surrey, England. Growing up, she was privately educated at Runnymede College in Madrid. After moving back to Madrid in 2002, Loos worked for an American investment bank. She is a second cousin of Piers Morgan. When the former England football captain David Beckham moved to Real Madrid, Loos became his personal assistant during the transition period, alongside SFX agent and the former Australian international footballer Andy Bernal, who spoke Spanish fluently. Beckham and Loos worked closely together both professionally and socially,〔("Life in the very fast lane with Beckham's buddies" ), ''The Age'', 11 February 2007.〕 and Loos claimed that she became an "alternative wife." Victoria Beckham was initially not happy in Madrid and wanted to develop her UK music career, so she spent much of her time in England. Loos claimed this resulted in Beckham becoming bored, leading them to spend almost all their time together socially, and a four-month affair was reportedly the result. Victoria Beckham was quoted in ''W'' magazine saying the claims only made their marriage stronger.〔("'Me & Beckham, by Rebecca Loos," ) ''Sunday Mirror,'' 11 April 2004.〕 In April 2004, British tabloid newspaper ''News of the World'' published a story claiming that Loos and Beckham had an affair.〔 Beckham never mounted a legal challenge to this story. Shortly after the newspaper coverage of her relationship with Beckham, Loos came out publicly as bisexual, saying, "I am indeed bisexual and have been ever since I was a teenager."〔("When Hello means Bi for now" ) ''The Observer,'' 9 May 2004.〕 In 2005, to protest against America's laws on gay marriage, Loos married American fashion model Jenny Shimizu for the television program ''Power Lesbian UK.''〔("Jenny Shimizu & Rebecca Loos: what's the story?" ) by Jane Czyzselka, ''Diva'' magazine, November 2005. Retrieved 2007-11-16.〕 It was broadcast in the United States as ''Power Lesbians'' on LOGO which profiled successful lesbians in Los Angeles. The two had a relationship for a period thereafter. Rebecca moved to Norway in 2009 and lives there with her husband Sven Christjar Skaiaa.,〔(Rebecca Loos gives birth )〕 two sons, Magnus (b. Oslo 17 July 2009) and Leo (b. 2011), and their two dogs. She now works for the commercial production company Rollo Tomasi. In a television interview in March 2013, she said that she would never be able to forgive her husband if he had an affair, a drunken one-night stand possibly but not an affair. "It's a topic that often comes up when I'm out with my girlfriends," she said. "An accidental drunk one-night stand is maybe easier to forgive than constant lying and sneaking behind the back, I would never be able to forgive that." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rebecca Loos」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
