Vogue Williams has branded David Beckham a 's***ebag' for becoming an ambassador for the World Cup in Qatar.
Speaking on her My Therapist Ghosted Me podcast alongside co-host Joanne McNally, the pair agreed that Beckham's involvement in the Qatar World Cup 'doesn't sit well'. And Vogue, 37, revealed that she declined an invite to do promotion in the Gulf nation, asking how they would feel if she brought her lesbian sister with her to the country.
She said: “They invited me over to the World Cup and to do all this influencing stuff and [I was like] I'll take my sister, my lesbian sister. How would you feel about that? There's no way I would go over there. Not the way it is. Very disappointed.”

Vogue also called the former England footballer a 's***ebag' and Joanne calling him a 'thirsty f****r' for taking a £10 million deal with the Fifa World Cup hosts. The Howth native said that he will get away with it in the eyes of his fans but Joanne disagreed.
“He won't, no he won't," the comedian insisted. "The respect is gone. People thought he was sound and he just outed himself now for being a thirsty f****r.”
Beckham's loyalty to the LGBTQ+ community has come under severe scrutiny, as homosexuality is illegal in Qatar. The hosts have also come under fire for their treatment of migrant workers, and for changing rules surrounding alcohol sales and tightening rules around political messaging during the tournament right before the big kick off.
Vogue also praised Joe Lycett for his "cash shredding" stunt, and said Beckham should give a portion of his money every year to an LGBTQ+ charity. “Then he could save a little bit of face," she said.
"Like come on you got 10 million, donate at least 10 of that to charities because you know you're a s***ebag.”
