Kim and Beckham aimed to prevent any speculation suggesting that their relationship led to his separation from Wood.
Moreover, Kim wanted to avoid any potential backlash, particularly from her outspoken ex-husband Kanye West.
“Kim really wanted to keep this romance private for two reasons, one is that he has a one-year-old son with his ex-Lauren Woods. They both wanted to avoid any speculation that he left Lauren for Kim – branding Kim a homewrecker, the second reason is to avoid the backlash from Kanye,” the sources shared.
With four children together, Kardashian is determined to avoid any drama, especially after West's past public outbursts on social media.
The outlet added, “after what Kanye put Pete Davidson through, Kim wants to avoid that at all costs.”
Their decision to keep their relationship under wraps was also influenced by Kardashian's previous relationship with comedian Pete Davidson, during which West publicly mocked Davidson.
Kardashian faced significant criticism at that time, and she is keen to prevent a similar situation with Beckham.
Despite their efforts to keep things low-key, rumors about their relationship surfaced after they were seen together at various events.
Most recently, they were reportedly seen at the same pre-Grammy party, where they allegedly displayed affectionate behavior.
