1997年，大卫与维多利亚·贝克汉姆在一场足球比赛中相遇，这标志着一段多年来让粉丝们为之倾倒的爱情故事的开始。
Though the couple grew up within close proximity in London, it wasn't until later in life, when Victoria was a member of the Spice Girls and David was a Manchester United player, that they finally met.
尽管这对夫妇在伦敦长大且距离不远，但直到后来，当维多利亚成为“辣妹组合”的一员，大卫成为曼联球员时，他们才终于相遇。

大卫在《艾伦·德杰尼勒斯秀》上回忆了那次相遇，他说：“她来看足球比赛，我在房间的另一边向她打招呼，就这样。我以为我错过了机会，但一周后，她又出现在了另一场足球比赛中。”
Their second meeting was more significant, as David shared on The Tonight show with Jimmy Fallon. "We talked for about an hour in the players' lounge and then she actually got the train up that day, so she wrote her number down on her train ticket, which I still have."
他们的第二次相遇更为重要，大卫在《吉米·法伦今夜秀》上分享了那次经历：“我们在球员休息室聊了一个小时左右，然后她那天要坐火车离开，于是她把自己的号码写在了火车票上，那张票我现在还留着。”
Victoria was taken by David's family-oriented nature, as she wrote to her younger self in Vogue, "While the other football players stand at the bar drinking with their mates, you will see David standing aside with his family. And he has such a cute smile."
维多利亚被大卫重视家庭的态度所吸引，她在《Vogue》杂志中给年轻时的自己写信时写道：“当其他足球运动员站在酒吧里和朋友们喝酒时，你会看到大卫站在一旁和家人在一起。而且他有着如此可爱的笑容。”
