David Beckham has admitted that he was ‘devastated’ when his son Romeo admitted he no longer wanted to play football.
The former Manchester United man has revealed that his 13-year-old son, who is a model for Burberry, has other passions.
People Magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive told the Radio Times: “The other day Romeo turned round to me and said he didn’t want to play football any more.
“Part of me was devastated but part of me was relieved, too.
“He’s got other passions and I like that.”
Beckham, 40, has three other children – sons Brooklyn and Cruz, as well as daughter Harper – with wife Victoria.
He also spoke about the scandal-hit Fifa.
“There’s a lot still to be done,” he said.
“It’s such a mess that it’s going to take a while to sort out. For me to see the game, the way it’s been treated and looked after, is devastating. It’s disgusting.”
Asked about the World Cup in Russia in 2018 and in Qatar in 2022 which have been tainted by corruption claims, Becks said: “Whether it’s corrupt or not, those countries have been chosen. People need to get behind that.
“It’s all about bringing football to new countries. I think they should stick with it.”
