David Beckham likes the odd Cuban cigar
Soccer star David Beckham who was photographed using an asthma inhaler last week says that it is nothing to do with the fact that he has a penchant for the odd cigar. A friend of the footballer said that Beckham likes the taste of a good cigar along with the image and only ever smokes the very best.
Cigar smoking is popular on the Los Angeles party circuit especially the expensive Cohiba variety which used to be reserved exclusively for Fidel Castro and his cronies. Smoking fine cigars is a guilty pleasure as Cuban cigars are outlawed by U.S. trade embargos with the island.
Another friend of the Beckhams says that David smokes cigars as a way of relaxing. The friend also pointed out that Beckham was extremely fit for his age. It is thought that Beckham discovered Cohibas after he moved with his family to Los Angeles. The family friend went on to point out that Becks didn’t have any other vices as far as he was aware. It is thought that his wife Victoria has banned Becks from indulging in a crafty cigar whilst in the house so that his sons Cruz, Romeo and Brooklyn are not affected by the smoke.
A spokesman for David Beckham said that it would not be accurate to call the L.A. Galaxy player a smoker. He went on to say that as far as he was aware David Beckham had indulged in maybe one or two puffs on a cigar by way of a bit of a celebration.
