A public family rift has emerged within the famous Beckham household. Brooklyn Beckham, the eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, has reportedly taken the drastic step of blocking his entire immediate family on social media. This move occurred just before the Christmas holiday.
According to reports from outlets like The U.S. Sun, the catalyst was surprisingly minor. Victoria Beckham “liked” a post by her 26-year-old son.
This gesture, however, had an unintended consequence. It prompted thousands of her followers to flood Brooklyn’s comment section. Fans began pressuring him to reconcile with his family.

This invasion of his digital space is said to have infuriated Brooklyn. He reportedly responded by immediately blocking his mother.
Brooklyn’s reaction did not stop with Victoria. Within hours, he reportedly extended the block to his father, David Beckham, and his three younger siblings: Romeo, Cruz, and Harper.

In response, younger brother Cruz Beckham took to social media to deny these claims. “IT’S NOT TRUE. My mom and dad would never stop following their son. Let’s get the facts straight. They woke up blocked… just like me,” he wrote.
Brooklyn has reportedly expressed a desire to resolve matters privately. However, his very public digital blockade suggests otherwise.
