Rebecca's hatred for the painting

The painting denotes a connection between Rupert and Rebecca, and fans know for sure what it means. ‘Ted Lasso’ chronicled the story of Rebecca’s divorce from Rupert and how badly he treated her during their marriage. So, it is likely that she took down the painting as she wanted to get rid of all traces of Rupert from her life and his hold on her.
