The Beckham family found itself in the middle of controversy after rumors of a heated internal conflict between David Beckham, Victoria Beckham and their eldest son Brooklyn resurfaced in the last few hours.
Neither David nor Victoria followed Brooklyn or his wife, actress Nicola Peltz, on Instagram, nor vice versa. Rumors grew as it emerged that the former footballer’s firstborn would spend Christmas with the Peltz family at their Palm Beach villa in Miami, while the rest of the Beckham clan would maintain the tradition of meeting in the Cotswolds in England.
However, the story took an unexpected turn after Cruz Beckham publicly intervened, who spread the information on his Instagram Stories, where he shared a screenshot of the Daily Mail headline reporting the news about the family, accompanied by a blunt message.
“That’s not true. My parents would never stop following their son… They woke up blocked. Me too,” he wrote, denying that the decision came from David and Victoria, but from Brooklyn.
Tensions had been simmering for some time, the turning point would have been Brooklyn’s wedding to Peltz in 2022, marked by disagreements over the wedding dress and the organization of the event, differences that were never resolved.
Since then, the eldest son’s absences at key moments have fueled speculation, with Brooklyn absent from his father’s birthday or the premiere of Victoria Beckham’s docuseries on Netflix, gestures that have been interpreted as a sign of ever-deepening distancing.
