David and Victoria Beckham has reportedly tested positive for coronavirus earlier this year after partying in Los Angeles.

According to The Sun newspaper, the football legend, 45, and his designer wife, 46, feared they were ‘super-spreaders’ after their employees including relatives and friends also caught the virus.

The couple were said to have enjoyed a trip to the UK for their son Brooklyn’s 21st birthday on March 4, before jetting back over to America on March 11 ahead of the launch of David’s new football team, Inter Miami, in Florida. They then finally returned to the Cotswolds by March 19, ahead of lockdown.

Tests later confirmed the couple’s COVID-19 diagnosis after the father-of-four began to feel unwell, with Victoria developing a sore throat and a high temperature soon after.

A source told The Sun;

They attended a couple of swanky networking events as David had promotional duties, and were shaking hands and kissing fans and various club dignitaries. They then flew back to London, and were whisked straight to their Cotswolds mansion. When they returned back to Maimi, David started to feel ill and then Victoria developed a sore throat and high temperature.

The source expressed;

At the same time, several of their team including drivers, bodyguards, and assistants fell ill — a couple of them very badly so. Victoria really panicked and made the whole family quarantine rigidly for more than two weeks. She was utterly petrified they might be super-spreaders, and did all she could to minimise all future risk. Not only was she poorly in bed, she was also completely panicked. It was a rough few weeks.

After making full recoveries, the couple checked in regularly with their team and even sent “care packages” to at least two staff members who were particularly badly affected.

According to the report, Victoria and David had swab and antibody tests to ensure they no longer had the virus before jetting off on holiday to Greece and Italy.
