David Beckham has been suffering a family fallout with his eldest son Brooklyn Beckham for weeks after he chose to snub his 50th birthday celebrations lats month

Brooklyn and David Beckham have been locked in a family fallout

Brooklyn Beckham has delivered the ultimate public snub by failing to address his dad’s injury online after his dad David Beckham was rushed to hospital. The former footballer, 50, is recovering in hospital with wife Victoria by his side and has since been discharged.

His dash to get medical help comes amid the family fallout that has affected the Beckham family. David’s eldest son Brooklyn, 26, has distanced himself from his parents and siblings after skipping all of the football icon’s birthday celebrations last month.

The rift continued as Brooklyn and wife Nicola stayed away from the parties despite being in the UK at the time. Brooklyn has since reportedly cut contact with his famous family and has publicly shown his support to his wife instead.

In a series of blows, Brooklyn failed to celebrate David’s long awaited knighthood or Father’s Day. Earlier today, he promoted his sauce brand but at the time of writing, has yet to post about David’s injury. Victoria has given fans an update.

Victoria was the first to raise concern about David as she shared a snap of him lying in a hospital bed, with his arm in a sling. “Get well soon, Daddy,” she wrote over the snap of him smiling while wearing a hospital gown.

She also gave him a friendship bracelet made with white beads to form ‘Get Well Soon’. The couple have yet to reveal what happened to the former England star.

However, it has since been reported that David underwent secret surgery to repair a broken wrist that he sustained 22 years ago – during a friendly football match against South Africa in 2003.

David recently revealed his long-running career left him with multiple injuries and years of “wear and tear”. He said: “Certain parts of my body were a real mess.”

As Brooklyn chose to stay silent on his family in recent weeks, he has been keen to show the love for wife Nicola. In a recent post on social media, Brooklyn teased in the caption that she’s his world.

He wrote “my” alongside an emoji depicting the globe. Beside a heart emoji, he also commented over the photo: “My absolute angel.” However, a few hours later, he returned to his page to share a message to David’s mother Sandra.

In the first reference to his own family in weeks, he marked his grandmother’s birthday with a post that included a photo of him beside her. Brooklyn wrote: “Happy birthday nanny xx love you so much.”

David also shared a gushing post of his own to celebrate his mother’s birthday, and made sure to give Brooklyn a nod. He captioned the tribute post: “Happy birthday mum we love you so much I hope u have the best day.

“Thank you for always being there for us all Love you x @sandra_beckham49 @lynnebeckhambriggs1972 @jo_jo_beckham_ @victoriabeckham @brooklynpeltzbeckham @romeobeckham @cruzbeckham #HarperSeven.”

Despite snubbing his own dad and mum’s birthdays this year on social media, Brooklyn made sure to wish Nicola’s father, Nelson, a happy birthday in a sweet post shared on his Stories this week. “Happy birthday, Nelson, we love you,” he wrote.
