    Without referencing the liaison directly, Becks, 48, said in the documentary that stories about the alleged affair were “horrible” and left him “feeling sick every day”.
    But Rebecca last night hit back, claiming: “The stories were horrible, but they’re true.
    “It’s all, ‘poor me’. He needs to take responsibility.
    “I understand he has an image to preserve, but he is portraying himself as the victim and he’s making me look like a liar.
    “If I stay silent I will be known as the liar, the one who made up stories.
    “He is indirectly suggesting that I’m the one who has made Victoria suffer…. He’s the one that’s caused the suffering.
    “He talks in the documentary about this ultimately being his private life, shutting it down.

    “I think it’s one thing to keep your private life to yourself. It’s another thing to mislead the public.”
    Rebecca added: “When I went public all those years ago I stuck precisely to facts, because I was this 26-year-old with no support behind me going up against the most powerful couple in the world.”
