David Beckham must pay INTOUCH magazine.

David Beckham has to pay $272,000 to In Touch magazine’s owner to compensate the company for its legal costs.  Beckham sued In Touch, called for an apology and retraction over the story claiming Beckham had cheated on his wife.

Beckham’s suit was dismissed in February by a Los Angeles judge because he reportedly didn’t show the magazine “acted with malice.”
