Posing shirtless in a hot tub alongside a bikini-clad Courteney Cox, a flirty-looking David Beckham was clearly having a ball.
The soccer megastar, 44, and Friends star Courteney, 55, were shooting cameos for Modern Family in LA, where Becks has been on holiday with wife Victoria and their four children.
While it looked like harmless professional fun, Woman’s Day can reveal the steamy encounter has led to yet more arguments and upset in the Beckhams’ 20-year marriage.
Now there’s mounting talk the Beckhams’ already-fragile relationship is teetering on the edge of full-blown collapse.
“Victoria was supportive of David’s acting gig, in fact, she was really excited until Courteney posted that picture to Instagram,” reveals an insider.
“She could not have got on the phone fast enough. As far as she was concerned these were not the sort of scenes David signed up for and she was fuming.”
GETTING HOT & HEAVY
Making matters worse was the fact in one photo Courteney appears to be gently resting her hand on David’s bare thigh and he hardly appeared to be batting her away.
“In Victoria’s eyes that was completely and utterly uncalled for and unnecessary.
It left her wondering what they were getting up to when the cameras weren’t rolling,” adds the source. “To say she felt jealous would be an understatement.
