"She hopes Brooklyn will reconsider and understand what is really happening."
The alleged feud in the Beckham family has reached new heights: reports have emerged that Brooklyn has asked his parents to communicate with him through his lawyers.
Rumors of a rift between 26-year-old Brooklyn Beckham and 30-year-old Nicola Peltz have been circulating since they married three years ago, and in recent months, these speculations have intensified after the hot sauce seller seemingly blocked his parents on social media.
David and Victoria Beckham were noticeably absent from Brooklyn's vow renewal ceremony in August, and a recent documentary by Victoria on Netflix raised even more questions.
Despite the mysterious social media messages, the family has largely maintained a dignified silence regarding the rumors of an ongoing feud.
However, Brooklyn's inexplicable absence from his father David's 50th birthday celebration convinced most fans that something is definitely going on.
We have prepared a timeline of the family feud, all the rumors, and the history of its beginnings – let's break it down.
The Wedding Dress Drama of Victoria and Nicola Peltz
In 2022, reports emerged that Nicola refused to wear one of the dresses designed by fashion icon Victoria on her wedding day.
"No family is perfect. No family," she told the Sunday Times in October of that year, explaining that she, her mother Victoria, and her longtime stylist discussed wedding designer ideas in a chat.
Victoria reportedly wrote to Nicola's mother that her atelier would not be able to make the dress in time, so they regrouped and "came up with something else."
The Rift Between Brooklyn and Romeo Over Kim Turnbull
In April, Cruz had to deny rumors of a feud between his brothers over Romeo's girlfriend, Kim.
Fans claim she initially dated Brooklyn, and this, in their opinion, caused a rift between the siblings.
In a later deleted post, one person commented on photos of Romeo and Kim from their vacation: "Is it appropriate to date your brother's ex-girlfriend? Cool," but Cruz replied, "Brooklyn and Kim never dated."
Brooklyn and Nicola Missed David's Birthday
Rumors of a rift only intensified after Brooklyn and Nicola were absent from any of the celebrations for his father David's 50th birthday in May.
A source told Metro that Brooklyn wants to reconcile with his father and was upset that he could not attend the grand party.
"Brooklyn is disappointed in himself for not being able to attend David's 50th birthday party," they said. "He wants everything to go back to normal, but feels that the split has deeply divided the family."
A source close to the situation explained that Victoria is desperately hoping her son will "come to his senses."
"She hopes Brooklyn will reconsider and understand what is really happening," they said. "They have always been a very close family, and seeing how things are now has been a crushing blow for Victoria and David."
He not only missed the party but also did not participate in David's fishing trip with Cruz and Romeo – the former footballer acknowledged this on social media, tagging Brooklyn in photos from the trip and writing: "We missed you."
Brooklyn also remained silent on Father's Day and did not mention the former footballer's knighthood on social media, but fueled rumors when he later posted a heartfelt message for his father-in-law, Nelson Peltz, in honor of his birthday.
Brooklyn and Nicola's Dinner with Harry and Meghan
Recently, reports emerged that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle invited Brooklyn and Nicola to dinner to express their support.
They reportedly unexpectedly invited the young couple to dinner, as they were brought together by similar "toxic" family situations. A source told The Sun that the four of them dined at the Sussexes' £11 million mansion in Montecito, California.
It is claimed that "Harry was fully aware of the situation and offered Brooklyn his unwavering support, having gone through something similar himself, while Meghan and Nicola found common ground after both sides were accused of creating rifts in their husbands' families."
Brooklyn Supports Nicola and Cruz's Emotional Statement
In May, Brooklyn seemingly hinted at some unfair play with his parents by posting a video with Nicola on Instagram, captioned with a vow to always "choose [her]."
He wrote: "My whole world, I will love you forever, I always choose you, baby, you are the most amazing person I know, we are forever, baby."
In response, Cruz posted a message on his Instagram story dedicated to his mom, dad, and siblings.
The 20-year-old shared a photo of himself with David and Victoria, as well as with Brooklyn, his 22-year-old brother Romeo, and 13-year-old Harper.
Fans believe this was a way to show whose side he is on, and he wrote: "I love my family, I love you more than anything in the world, mom and dad, you gave us life and cared for us no matter what, I can't express in words how lucky we all are to have you in our lives."
