Victoria Beckham and David Beckham just wanted to say they’ll be there.
As a lifestyle expert, I’ve been following the Beckham family, and it’s interesting to see how they navigate personal challenges. Even though there’s been some distance between Brooklyn Peltz Beckham and his family, it’s heartwarming to know his parents still sent him birthday wishes as he turned 27 on March 4th. It really shows you can always choose kindness, even when things are complicated.
As a lifestyle expert, I always love seeing family moments! It warmed my heart to see Victoria Beckham sharing an adorable throwback photo of her son Brooklyn as a little boy, nestled between her and David by the pool. She simply captioned it, “Happy birthday Brooklyn, we love you so much,” and honestly, it’s the sweetest message. It’s those simple, heartfelt expressions of love that really matter, don’t you think?
David shared a birthday message for someone nicknamed ‘Bust,’ writing, ‘Happy 27th Birthday! We love you!’ along with a happy tears emoji.
It’s unclear if Brooklyn Beckham has seen his parents’ recent message. His 2022 wedding to Nicola Peltz Beckham is rumored to have caused a rift between him and his family, and he hasn’t publicly responded to their statement.
As of now, David and Victoria Beckham’s younger sons, 23-year-old Romeo and 21-year-old Cruz, haven’t publicly acknowledged or congratulated their older brother.
Fourteen-year-old Harper Beckham has a private Instagram account, but she once publicly acknowledged each of her three older brothers with a Valentine’s Day post.
Oh my gosh, you guys, Harper just posted the cutest thing on her Instagram Story! It was a throwback pic with Brooklyn, Romeo, and Cruz, and she wrote, ‘Happy Valentine’s Day to the best big brothers in the whole wide world x!’ Seriously, I’m melting! They’re all so precious, and she’s just the sweetest. I’m obsessed with this family!
Victoria shared the lovely message on her own social media story, and Romeo posted a second photo with his fans. The picture showed Harper with her brothers by the pool, and she captioned it with a heartfelt message saying she loves them all very much.
For years, people noticed Brooklyn was growing distant from his family, and this tension became public in January when he shared a post on social media explaining their strained relationship.
For years, I’ve really kept to myself and tried to handle things privately. But honestly, my parents and their representatives keep going to the media, and it’s forced my hand. I need to set the record straight and address some of the untrue things that have been said. It’s not about getting back on good terms with my family; this is about me taking control and finally standing up for myself. It’s the first time I’m truly doing this, and it feels incredibly important.
The chef claimed his parents have always manipulated how the media portrays the family. He also accused David and Victoria of consistently attempting to sabotage his romantic relationships, starting before his wedding and continuing ever since.
The couple, for their part, have not addressed their son’s allegations directly.
For more on how the Beckham family rift came to be, read on.
While not required, many people expected Nicola Peltz Beckham to wear a wedding dress designed by her future mother-in-law, Victoria Beckham, when she married Brooklyn Beckham in April 2022. The wedding took place at Nicola’s family estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
So when she didn’t, going with Valentino Couture instead… Bad blood alert!
Nicola kept quiet about the issue for months, but eventually confirmed there wasn’t a conflict about the dress. She did admit she was a little upset that she couldn’t wear a custom dress designed by Victoria Beckham.
In August 2022, Nicola told Variety that she had initially planned to wear a dress designed by this particular designer and was very excited about it. However, a few months later, the designer informed her that her workshop wasn’t able to fulfill the order, so Nicola had to choose a different dress. She clarified that the designer never forbade her from wearing it, and she never expressed a desire not to. This misunderstanding is what sparked the rumors, which were then exaggerated by the media.
Brooklyn said she’s realized people will always try to be negative or bring others down, but thankfully, everyone on the team gets along well.
Speaking to Grazia the following month, Nicola called the Beckhams “great in-laws.”
Victoria, who rarely addresses gossip, finally described the Peltz-Beckham wedding as “beautiful.”
She shared on TODAY that October that seeing her son so happy was incredibly rewarding. “You couldn’t ask for anything more,” she said.
Tom Cruise and all four members of the Spice Girls attended Victoria Beckham’s elegant 50th birthday party on April 20, 2024, though her daughter-in-law was unable to make it.
Nicola shared on Instagram that she was visiting her grandmother, who sadly passed away less than a month later.
Nicola shared a birthday message for Victoria Beckham on Instagram, saying she was sad to miss the celebration but sending lots of love from her and her nanny. She wrote, “Happy birthday to my beautiful mil @victoriabeckham i’m so sad i’m not there to celebrate you and hug you. Sending all my love from me and my naunni. I miss you all so much!” She had also previously posted a birthday message on Victoria’s actual birthday, April 17th, with a photo of them together, saying, “i love you so much and love being your dance partner forever.
Naunni’s death deeply affected Nicola, and many others shared their grief. Brooklyn posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, expressing disbelief that a year had passed since Naunni’s passing. They remembered Naunni’s infectious happiness and ability to bring joy to others, sharing their enduring love and sadness that future generations wouldn’t have the chance to know her. They described her as unique and deeply missed.
In a June 2024 interview with InStyle, Brooklyn reflected on his upbringing – growing up with a famous footballer father and a Spice Girl mother – and said he had a very happy childhood.
He admitted things were busy, but said he had amazing parents and really enjoyed himself.
Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz spent some of the 2024 holidays with Nicola’s family, and photos shared by David and Victoria Beckham showed the whole family – including Brooklyn – enjoying time together in the present, making it clear there were no lingering issues from the past or worries about the future.
Victoria shared a series of photos and a heartfelt message expressing her joy at spending the holidays with her family. She wrote, ‘Being together for the holidays makes me so happy, I love you all so much,’ and tagged each of her children and her daughter-in-law.
It’s unclear why, but Brooklyn and Nicola weren’t in any of the photos his parents shared from the party celebrating David’s 50th birthday in London in May 2025.
According to a source at TopMob News, the couple traveled to England, choosing to miss the Met Gala on May 5th. They reportedly hoped to visit David and celebrate his birthday with him during that week or weekend.
According to a source who spoke with People magazine, Brooklyn Beckham decided against going to David’s party because he didn’t want to encounter his brother Romeo’s girlfriend at the time, DJ Kim Turnbull. Turnbull had been attending more and more family events, like the Victoria Beckham show during Paris Fashion Week in March 2025, ever since she and Romeo publicly started dating in November 2024.
When someone on Instagram wondered why Brooklyn Beckham chose to be with Kim instead of attending his dad’s party, Cruz Beckham, his younger brother, responded by saying, “Brooklyn and Kim were never a couple.”
TopMob News reported in June 2025 that Romeo and Kim have split up, suggesting a possible reconnection between Romeo and his brother might be a good idea.
The wedding is facing more drama, as the couple’s first dance didn’t go smoothly, and it’s unclear what happened.
According to a source who spoke with TopMob News in May 2025, Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz expected Marc Anthony to perform their first dance. However, Anthony instead announced Victoria Beckham, leaving Brooklyn confused and uncomfortable.
Nicola briefly left the wedding reception in tears, but she returned feeling composed and was able to enjoy the rest of the celebration.
While the situation wasn’t bad enough to stop David from being best man at Marc’s wedding to Nadia Ferreira in January 2023, it’s easy to see why Nadia might have been more upset by it.
According to a source, Brooklyn and Nicola have genuinely tried to build a relationship with his family over the years, but currently, they’re not on good terms.
In a May 2025 Instagram post, Brooklyn affectionately called Nicola his “whole world.” He expressed his deep love with a message saying he’d always choose her and that she was the most amazing person he knew, promising their love would last forever.
When accusations arise, those accused usually hire lawyers. The recent story about Nicola crying at her wedding three years ago might be a sign of further issues to surface.
Following reports that Brooklyn and Nicola Beckham have retained legal counsel – the same lawyer who has represented Prince Harry and Meghan Markle – a source confirmed to TopMob News that while the couple do have a lawyer, it’s not for handling public image or ‘reputation management’.
Okay, so here’s the deal: I’m hearing that they’ve brought in Jenny Afi, a lawyer from the firm Schillings, to really clarify things and push back against inaccurate information that’s been circulating. Basically, they want to get the truth out there and correct the record.
Although the law firm represents the Sussexes – and had David and Victoria Beckham as wedding guests in 2018 – a source confirmed there’s no link between this matter and Meghan and Harry. The source emphasized that Schillings is a well-regarded firm with many different clients.
The source pointed out that this situation perfectly illustrates why it’s important to have a lawyer – to correct false information and ensure the truth is known.
David received a knighthood in November 2025, but Brooklyn and Nicola didn’t say anything publicly about it. They also weren’t at the MLS Cup final in December 2025 when David’s team, Inter Miami CF, won—only Victoria, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper were there to celebrate.
As a longtime follower, I was definitely surprised when people noticed David and Victoria weren’t following Brooklyn on Instagram back in December 2025! Luckily, Cruz quickly cleared things up and confirmed they hadn’t blocked him – it was a relief to hear!
He denied the claims on Instagram Stories, stating, “My parents would never unfollow me.” He clarified that his mother and father, and himself, were all unexpectedly blocked from viewing each other’s accounts.”
Brooklyn Beckham chose to celebrate Christmas 2025 with his wife Nicola’s family, including her parents Claudia Heffner Peltz and Nelson Peltz, rather than joining his own family. His younger brother, Cruz, stayed home for the holidays with their parents.
David recently shared a look back at 2025 with photos of his year spent with family and friends. Notably absent from the pictures were his oldest son and his son’s wife, Nicola, fueling ongoing speculation about a family disagreement.
An hour later, David posted old photos of himself with each of his and Victoria’s children, and captioned a black-and-white picture with Brooklyn, “I love you all so much.”
In January 2026, Brooklyn posted a detailed message on Instagram explaining his difficult relationship with his family.
He stated he didn’t want to make amends with his family. He explained he was asserting his independence and finally prioritizing his own needs, something he hadn’t done before.
In a recent post, Brooklyn accused his parents of manipulating the media coverage surrounding their family, prioritizing the ‘Beckham brand’ over everything else, and actively attempting to sabotage his relationship with Nicola.
He mentioned struggling with anxiety throughout his life, but says he now feels peaceful and relieved since creating distance from his family.
