Who is Rebecca Loos?

Rebecca was born in Madrid, Spain, on June 19, 1977.

She has Dutch citizenship because her father, Leonard Loos Bartholdi, is a Dutch diplomat.

In 2004, she briefly hosted the Dutch TV programme Shownieuws alongside former Eurovision contestant Gerard Joling.

She's been featured on the cover of magazines including Playboy, FHM, Nuts and Zoo.

Loos has also appeared on several UK TV shows, including:

  • Celebrity Love Island
  • The Farm
  • Extreme Celebrity Detox
  • Temptation Island
  • The X Factor: Battle of the Stars

What were the David Beckham affair claims?

At the time of the alleged affair, Loos was David Beckham's personal assistant.

Rebecca has discussed the affair in numerous media interviews and television appearances, but the claims were never corroborated and were denied by the former footballer.

In 2023, she reemerged into the spotlight following Beckham's Netflix documentary, which briefly touched on the affair claims.

Speaking to Good Morning Britain, Rebecca said: "It takes two to tango."

She continued: "I would rather not have to talk about this again. I have left this behind me and moved very much on with my life.

"But him not acknowledging responsibility he is giving a message that its OK to behave like this and I think that is the wrong message to give.

"My message is you make mistakes own up to them say sorry and move on. That’s what I'm teaching my kids."

She added: "When this documentary came I tried very hard to just let it go and get on with my life but it really bothered me about the angle they used and how he played the narrative, how misleading it is and how he makes me look like the bad person.

"Of course I am also guilty, but it takes two tango and I never denied it. He said the claims are ludicrous - but ludicrous is not denying it."

What was Rebecca Loos' famous pig scene and who's her husband?

Rebecca famously pleasured a pig during her 2004 appearance on Channel 5 show The Farm.

She was seen wearing rubber gloves to arouse the animal before collecting around a third of a litre of semen in a flask.

At the time, the 10-minute scene - watched by 1.6 million people - was the most controversial to appear on Five since Keith Chegwin hosted a naturists' game show Naked Jungle in 2000.

37 people complained to Ofcom about the footage, but the media watchdog didn't uphold the complaints, insisting the pig was not degraded by Loos.

They said: "We don't believe that the scene was degrading or harmful to the boar."

Rebecca now lives a very different life.

She moved to Norway in 2009 and is married to an actor called Sven Christjar Skaiaa, and they have two kids.
