Reality TV often pushes celebrities to their absolute limits, and Rebecca Loos has been the latest to open up about how difficult it was to be part of Celebrity SAS: Who Dares Wins.
The former model, who joined 13 other well-known faces in the series, admitted that her exit wasn’t as straightforward as viewers might have thought.
Why Rebecca Really Walked Away
Rebecca explained that the breaking point came when she was asked to jump from a towering viaduct, a challenge that triggered an overwhelming emotional response.
Speaking candidly on ITV’s Lorraine, she confessed that the decision to hand over her number immediately filled her with regret.
Fatigue played a big role—after days of extreme training, little sleep, and brutal tasks, she said she simply wasn’t herself.
On top of that, she revealed her hormones were “all over the place,” which added to the moment of weakness.
Struggles Behind the Scenes
While audiences only saw snippets of her journey, Rebecca insisted there was so much more that viewers didn’t get to witness.
The day before her exit had been particularly grueling, leaving her drained before she even faced the terrifying jump.
She wanted people to understand that what looked like a sudden collapse of confidence was actually the result of days of physical and mental exhaustion.
Revisiting the David Beckham Question
The interview also touched on a familiar subject: Rebecca’s past with David Beckham.
During her time on the show, she was grilled about her history, and she admitted that she would have preferred the focus to be elsewhere.
For her, the bigger story was the bravery it took to stand up to the British press and powerful PR figures during those years.
She explained that production had the final say in editing, which meant her words about resilience and personal battles didn’t always make it into the final cut.
Her Take on Being Asked About the Past
Rebecca made it clear that she doesn’t mind being asked about Beckham—it’s part of her journey and always will be.
But what frustrated her was the imbalance.
She wanted people to also hear about the other difficult chapters she’s survived, not just the one headline-grabbing moment from her past.
Fans React Online
As expected, the public had mixed reactions.
Some viewers took to social media, rolling their eyes at yet another Beckham mention and questioning why the topic keeps resurfacing.
Others, however, offered compassion and support, praising Rebecca for her courage, authenticity, and willingness to put herself through such a punishing challenge.
Messages of encouragement flooded Instagram, with fans calling her inspirational and reminding her to be proud of her efforts.
Not the Only One to Step Down
Rebecca wasn’t the only celebrity to leave that week.
Rapper Lady Leshurr also bowed out after injuring her neck earlier in the competition.
Concerned that pushing forward might worsen the injury, she decided it was safer to quit.
Meanwhile, the remaining contestants—including Adam Collard, Michaella McCollum, Conor Benn, Lucy Spraggan, Bimini, and Troy Deeney—are still battling it out on the intense military-style course.
A Journey That Still Means Something
Even though her time on the show ended sooner than she had hoped, Rebecca insists the experience was powerful and eye-opening.
For her, walking away didn’t mean failure—it was a lesson in self-compassion, resilience, and knowing when enough is enough.
