With Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz continuing to distance themselves from the close-knit family, cryptic social media posts have cemented concerns of a feud
Victoria Beckham looks solemn in new video amid ongoing feud with son Brooklyn and wife Nicola
Singer-turned-designer Victoria Beckham has put on a brave face in her latest Instagram video, but the mother-of-four looks like she’s carrying the weight of the world on her shoulders amid her estrangement from son Brooklyn. Victoria, 51, has shared a clip of herself applying make up to promote her Victoria Beckham Beauty range.
The Spice Girls star could be seen with a white towel wrapped around her hair, wearing a personalised silky robe while she talked into the camera. With dewy skin and her usual perfect make up, she described her new summer look to her 32.9 million followers, giving a tutorial on how to use her Satin Kajal Liner in Terracotta.
Fashion icon Victoria admitted she “spent a lot of time obsessing” over the colours in her make up range, telling fans about how different her products are to other things on the market. But she seemed more downbeat than usual in the clip, with her concern over her son’s relationship with his family likely to be laying heavy on her.
The family’s fall-out with eldest son Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, has caused speculation among fans that a feud has emerged. Various cryptic videos have been posted on both sides of the rift, while Brooklyn completely missed out on his dad David’s 50th birthday celebrations – making him the only member of the family not to attend.
Victoria got back to business with her latest video
A recent interview with Glamour’s German magazine saw Brooklyn and Nicola open up on their relationship and the pressures fame has put on them. When asked about how he protects his relationship in the spotlight, Brooklyn said: “Ignore the noise. Keep your head down, work hard, be kind. People are always going to talk. What matters is that we’re happy together.”
Nicola added: “It’s not always easy. On TikTok there are always random stories popping up about us. When I see fake news, my instinct is to shut it down. But it’s not worth it. I just scroll past and move on.”
Nicola, who is the daughter of American billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz and former model Claudia Heffner Peltz, married Brooklyn, Victoria and David Beckham’s eldest son, in 2022. The interview seemed to show Nicola and Brooklyn distancing themselves from his close-knit family.
Cruz posted a sweet photo, reminding Brooklyn he is always part of the Beckham family
When a customer asked about his Cloud23 hot sauce brand’s name, a member of his team explained: “The 23 included in our brand is a warm nod to Brooklyn’s father, David Beckham, who wore number 23 while playing for Real Madrid and LA Galaxy, inspired by NBA legend Michael Jordan.”
But in Brooklyn’s interview in April with Glamour, he offered up a new meaning: “The 23 stands for our engagement date and my age back then.” Fresh images of Brooklyn also show that his tribute to Victoria, a tattoo reading: “Mama’s boy,” has been covered up.
Brooklyn stood firm in the feud, stating he would “always choose” his wife Nicola
In an Instagram video shared in May, Brooklyn appeared to clearly pledge allegiance to Nicola. Showing him take his wife for an early morning motorbike ride, he wrote: “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.”
Less than a day after Brooklyn’s pointed statement, his brother Cruz Beckham, 20 shared what seemed to be a response. He posted a clip of one of his mum Victoria’s songs from her solo self-titled album, Every Part Of Me, writing simply: “Listen.”
The lyrics read: “I think you should know that people gonna come and go. Be assured of this one thing, I will still remain. I know that there will come a day when you have to go away. But you have no reason to fear, I promise I’ll be here if someone ever breaks your heart.
“And you feel your world is torn apart. My love for you will bring you through hard times. I’ll help you be strong.” The song poignantly ends: “I’ll always love you so… You’ll always be my baby.”
