Brooklyn Beckham revealed his mother Victoria Beckham never really taught him how to cook.
The aspiring chef, 24, has been focusing on improving his culinary skills in recent years and shared endless videos of his recipes with fans on social media. However, the former photographer received a lot of criticism over his cooking techniques and fans often share their thoughts in the comment section of his videos.
He was relentlessly mocked for some of his dishes like his sausage sandwich and a pasta recipe made with shop-bought sauce. In 2021, encouraged by his loving wife, he shared videos for his two million Instagram followers and it quickly led to Cookin’ With Brooklyn, a Facebook and Instagram series of eight-minute episodes.
One video showed viewers how to carve a hole in a £800 cheese wheel. In a recent interview, Brooklyn admitted he learned how to cook from his father David Beckham. Victoria previously admitted she grew up on microwave meals and mainly only eats grilled fish or meat with vegetables.

Speaking to The Times, Brooklyn said: “My dad was always the one cooking in the house, my mum not so much. I loved hanging out with him in the kitchen.” When asked what the first thing he ever cooked was, he added: “Probably Super Noodles, you can’t go wrong with Super Noodles.”
Brooklyn previously discussed the hate he receives on his food videos. The star insisted he wasn’t fazed by the negative feedback he gets on his cooking videos. Speaking to Insider, he shared: “To be honest, I’m used to the hate. It doesn’t really bother me. Cooking makes me happy. I have more important things to worry about than people saying a little bit of rubbish about me.”
Brooklyn also said people can continue writing what they want to write and he will continue posting cooking videos. He added: “My message to them is to keep writing whatever they want to write. There are always going to be people out there who try and pull you down.
“I’m doing my thing and working my bum off. So they can keep writing what they want, but it’s not going to bother me — I’m just going to keep doing my thing.” Brooklyn first started showing off his cooking prowess in July 2021 when he posted a time-lapse video which showed him cooking a steak quesadilla.
He followed up the quesadilla video a few days later with uploads showing him cooking two different pasta dishes – a spicy tomato one and a pesto pasta meal. Meanwhile, fans in London will be able to order Brooklyn’s culinary delights to the door as he has teamed with Uber Eats to have meals delivered.
But this will be available for a limited time only as his kitchen will only be open on Thursday 25 and Friday 26 January between the hours of 5pm and 10pm.
