How ruthlessly the England captain and his wife Victoria have exploited the media to promote Brand Beckham and earn themselves a fortune beyond the dreams of avarice.
How petulantly he now responds when he has been caught so spectacularly with his trousers down.
He snivels. He sulks. He threatens to refuse all interviews with the newspapers and television stations that dared to report his fall from grace.
On the eve of a crucial tournament in European football, may we offer some gentle advice?
Grow up. Learn that fame has responsibilities as well as privileges.
And start showing the public that you still deserve your celebrity and wealth by concentrating on the job in hand.
That means captaining a successful England team instead of behaving like a big girl's blouse.
