Brooklyn Beckham, the eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, has reportedly cut contact with his family, prioritising his wife, Nicola Peltz, and her family. The once-close Beckham family is navigating a publicised feud, with tensions stemming from personal and relational disputes. This article explores the reasons behind Brooklyn’s estrangement and its impact on the Beckham legacy.
At 26, Brooklyn distanced himself from his parents, David and Victoria, and his siblings, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper. Insiders cite disagreements over his 2022 wedding to Nicola Peltz as a key trigger. Brooklyn’s growing bond with Nicola’s family, including billionaire Nelson Peltz, has further strained ties. Sources claim Brooklyn is unresponsive to family messages, signalling a deliberate “time-out.”
The rift became evident during David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebrations in 2025, when Brooklyn was absent amid reported tensions involving Romeo’s ex-girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, who is linked to Brooklyn’s past.
Key Incidents Highlighting the Rift
Several events underscore the family divide:
- David’s Knighthood: Brooklyn learned of his father’s upcoming knighthood through media reports, not family communication.
- Victoria and Nicola’s Distance: The two are reportedly not in contact now, despite Victoria attending Nicola’s “Lola” premiere in early 2025.
- Sibling Dynamics: While Brooklyn has no clear reason to avoid Cruz and Harper, communication remains limited.
In Los Angeles, Brooklyn focuses on his Cloud23 hot sauce brand and his life with Nicola. His alignment with the Peltz family contrasts with his estrangement from the Beckhams. Meanwhile, Romeo moves on from Kim Turnbull to influencer Caroline Daur, but the earlier overlap with Brooklyn’s past adds to family friction.
Despite the rift, some insiders remain hopeful. A source close to the family denied the severity of the feud, emphasising David Beckham’s knighthood as the current focus. Fans wonder if Brooklyn will reconnect with his iconic family or continue building his life independently with Nicola.
Brooklyn Beckham’s reported decision to cut contact with his family, announced on June 10, 2025, marks a challenging chapter for the Beckhams. Driven by personal disputes and his bond with Nicola Peltz’s family, the rift raises questions about reconciliation. As Brooklyn pursues his ventures in LA, the world watches to see if this famous family can mend ties.
