Tears, tattoos and royal drama: Why Brooklyn Beckham really isn’t talking to his parents
It’s a showdown between the UK’s biggest celebrity couple and one of America’s wealthiest families, which has ricocheted between Palm Beach, London, LA, and Miami.
Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham are no longer speaking to his parents, Victoria and David, with sources saying it is because he has grown even closer to his in-laws, billionaire Nelson Peltz, Wendy’s chairman, and Disney disruptor, and his wife, Claudia.
It comes as everything the Beckhams have ever worked for has come to fruition: David, Page Six has confirmed, is to be awarded a knighthood in King Charles’ birthday honors next week, an accolade he has always craved, while his wife, who will become known as Lady Victoria, will have her own Netflix show later this year centering around her successful fashion line.
“Nicola told Victoria and David, ‘the only thing we wanted was your love and support’.”
To this, an insider familiar with the Beckham side of things retorted, “Anyone who knows the Beckhams knows they are loving, committed, amazing parents.”
However, insiders have now revealed the full extent of the family fallout; from Nicola running out of her wedding in tears to allegations the Beckhams tried to get their eldest son to sign away his rights to use his own surname, with a source saying, “It’s all about Brand Beckham.”
Amid reports that Brooklyn, 26, is being “controlled” by his wife, a source familiar with the Peltz family insisted, “Nicola’s only ‘crime’ is marrying Brooklyn – she’s guilty of loving him, nothing else.
“Nicola told Victoria and David, ‘the only thing we wanted was your love and support’.”
