Brooklyn Beckham appears to have distanced himself from his family, particularly his mother, Victoria Beckham, and younger brother, Romeo. It’s unclear what caused this estrangement, but his father, David Beckham, wants to nip the problem in the bud ASAP. Sources said the retired footballer is using his upcoming milestone birthday as the venue for his planned reconciliation.
David is hitting the big 5-0 on May 2, and insiders told The Sun that he is pulling out all the stops for the celebration with the ultimate goal of reuniting Brooklyn with the rest of the family. The sports icon is hosting a star-studded gathering at the three-Michelin-star restaurant Core in London. He has already tapped the restaurant’s chef, Clare Smyth, to prepare a bespoke menu for his family and guests.
The guest list has also been leaked, and it includes Hollywood actor Tom Cruise, who also had a falling out with the Beckhams in the past but reconciled in 2024, and David’s Class of ’92 teammates. Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, are also part of the list, along with Brooklyn’s siblings, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper. By inviting the 26-year-old Beckham and his spouse to his party, David seems determined to mend his fractured family and put an end to the feuding rumors. However, the insiders did not mention if Victoria’s aware of her husband’s plans. Regardless, this would be the perfect time for her and Brooklyn to reunite after speculations of a strained mother-and-son relationship spread online.
What happened to Brooklyn and Victoria Beckham?
When Victoria turned 51 on April 17, all of her family greeted her in person and online except for Brooklyn. David and the rest of her children shared heartwarming tributes for the former Spice Girls member on Instagram in addition to showing up to her lavish yacht party in Miami, Florida. On the other hand, Brooklyn seemed to have rebelled as he opted to soak up the vibes at Coachella with his wife that same day.
Before wrapping up her party, Victoria shared photos from the celebration in an Instagram Story and wrote, “Thank you for making my birthday so special. My family and my friends, I love you all so much.” The post featured her husband and kids, and her celeb pals Isabela and David Grutman. Since Brooklyn was nowhere to be found, and his mom did not acknowledge his absence, rumors quickly swirled that there was tension between them.
In 2024, Brooklyn did not forget to greet his mother on her special day. Even Peltz joined in by making a separate post where she called Victoria her “dance partner forever.” In the years prior, the younger couple consistently paid tribute to Victoria on her birthdays. It’s only this year that things seemingly turned sour without any hints on what caused this to happen.
Meanwhile, TMZ learned that Brooklyn also has some issues with his brother Romeo, 22, allegedly stemming from the latter’s relationship with a model named Kim Turnbull. Brooklyn was romantically linked to Turnbull before she started seeing Romeo, so he is doubting her motive for dating his younger brother. To avoid any awkward interactions, Brooklyn and Nicola have reportedly made an effort to steer clear of family gatherings where Turnbull is present.
