Brooklyn Beckham’s younger brother Cruz has responded to reports that the aspiring chef has cut all ties with his famous family in a heartbreaking post. Victoria and David’s eldest son, who has been locked in a bitter feud with his family reportedly over wife Nicola Peltz, is said to be now refusing to respond to his parents’ messages.
Sources close to Brooklyn, 26, have claimed “he wants no contact and he’s not responding to those that try to connect”. After the latest sad twist, Cruz took to his Instagram to reach out to his big brother by posting a throwback photo on his Stories.

Cruz shared a moving black and white throwback photo of all four Beckham children sharing a cuddle with their mum, Victoria. Spice Girl Victoria looked super proud of her brood as she cuddled Harper in her arms while her boys leaned in for the camera as they hung out on the sofa.
Brooklyn was seen on the left laying his head affectionately on his mum’s shoulder. This week the family were delivered huge news when it was reported that David, 50, will finally be awarded a knighthood in the King’s Birthday Honours list this week. While Victoria will be known as Lady Beckham.
However, Brooklyn is said to have failed to congratulate his dad on the long-awaited title. Amid the family rift, David reportedly didn’t tell Brooklyn about the accolade, with the eldest of the Beckham kids instead finding out through the media.

Insiders close to the 26-year-old told Page Six that he was thrilled his dad was finally receiving the honour and had known it was so important.
However, a separate source close to the Beckhams told the publication: “Brooklyn told his family he wants no contact and he’s not responding to those that try to connect.”
Yet a separate Brooklyn source denied the claim, saying: “This seems to be another deliberate attempt to misrepresent the truth, and it only serves to distract from this honour being bestowed on Brooklyn’s father.”

It comes after Brooklyn sent a damning message to his famous mum, dad and siblings last month, vowing that he will “always choose” his wife Nicola Peltz after claims that she has been the catalyst behind the mass fall out.
In the video shared on social media, Brooklyn was seen revving a motorbike alongside Nicola in Beverly Hills. He wrote in the caption: “My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you’re the most amazing person i know xx me and you forever baby.”
The message appeared to be unmistakably pointed at his family feud. The clip is the first public move either Brooklyn or Nicola has made in relation to the very visible divide within the Beckham family.
Brooklyn previously said he’s ‘always choose’ Nicola
Meanwhile, Cruz’s throwback post isn’t the first time he sent a subtle message to his brother. Last month, after Brooklyn announced he’d always ‘choose Nicola’, Cruz shared a post that read: It takes 43 muscles in your face to frown, and 17 to smile. Be kind and tell the truth.” he wrote.
The 20-year-old also said in a separate post: “I love my family, I love you guys more than anything, mum & dad you gave us life and cared for us no matter what, I cannot tell you how blessed we all are to have you in our lives x.”
Speculation of a feud has been growing for months when fans noticed both Brooklyn and Nicola snubbed Victoria’s birthday and David’s 50th birthday milestone.

The couple also failed to publicly support the Beckham family despite previously sharing loving posts with one another. While they didn’t show up to their family’s birthdays, the couple were seen celebrating Coachella, attending events and even celebrating Nicola’s brother Will’s birthday.
Sources close to Nicola have previously insisted that as “an outsider coming into the Beckham family, she has helped Brooklyn see the emotional abuse and toxic behaviour within”. The claims – described as “patently untrue and ludicrous” by friends of David and Victoria – were the “nail in the coffin” of any future relationship, according to insiders.
New magazine reported that Victoria is struggling with the situation because 26-year-old Brooklyn is “always going to be her baby”. Another source said: ”He’s her first-born and they’ve always had a wonderful relationship, she feels like Nicola has taken over and it’s really tough to deal with as a mother.
“David is frustrated with Brooklyn’s behaviour and is telling Victoria it’s unacceptable, but she’s just upset to feel like she’s losing her first baby. She’s very family-oriented so it’s a worry that Brooklyn and Nicola will start their own family and Victoria won’t have contact with her first grandchild – it’s a devastating thought.”
