Cruz Beckham has claimed his brother Brooklyn has blocked his family members on social media.
Reports suggested Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham unfollowed their eldest son Brooklyn, 26, as well as his wife Nicola Peltz, on Instagram.
In a new twist in their family feud, aspiring chef Brooklyn is now facing claims from his younger brother that he has suddenly cut ties with his parents.
It was claimed that David, 50, and 51-year-old Victoria don’t follow Brooklyn or their daughter-in-law and they don’t feature in the list of people followed by the 30-year-old actress.
However, Cruz, 20, was quick to address the claims, taking to his Instagram to write: ‘NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son… Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked… as did I.’
The move comes after it was reported that Brooklyn won’t be spending Christmas with his family this year, despite David sharing an olive branch to his son earlier this week.
A source told the Daily Mail: ‘Brooklyn and Nicola decided they would be spending this Christmas with her family. Her parents are really excited to have them.’
Beckham family feud history
The family fall-out was believed to have begun after the couple married in 2022, and in May this year, Brooklyn and Nicola were noticeably absent from David’s 50th birthday party in London, which was attended by his wife and their other children, Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and 14-year-old Harper.
Also that month, Brooklyn shared a video of himself and Nicola riding a motorbike along with a caption in which he pledged to ‘always choose’ her.
Hours later, Cruz shared a family photo and wrote: ‘I love you guys more than anything, mum + dad, you gave us life and cared for us no matter what. I cannot tell you how blessed we all are to have you in our lives.’
Three years on from their wedding day, Nicola and Brooklyn pledged new promises to one another in a vow renewal ceremony. However, it seemed his parents weren’t present at the August 3 ceremony.
Brooklyn’s Instagram followers spotted that not only were Victoria and David absent, but that Nicola’s dad Nelson officiated the ceremony.
In October, Victoria hinted at the difficulties when she reflected on how she thought Oasis rockers Liam and Noel Gallagher’s reconciliation must have made their mother ‘so happy’.
She told the Sunday Times Culture magazine: ‘I just think their mum must be so happy.
‘It must have been really tough on the mum, the boys not talking for all those years. And I just think as a mum, that must be … she must feel so happy to see her boys getting on.’
Victoria added that she and David are ‘really close to the kids’ but notably failed to mention her eldest son.
She said: ‘Harper’s still 14, so she’s living at home. So is Cruz, who is 20. I see both of them every day.
‘Romeo doesn’t live at home, so I see a little less of him.’
Brooklyn recently insisted he ignores the ‘rubbish’ people say about him.
Speaking at the Ryder Cup Celebrity All-Star Match in New York, he said: ‘There’s always going to be people saying negative things but I have a very supportive wife. Me and her, we just do our thing, we just keep our heads down and work. And we’re happy.
‘Everyone is always going to say rubbish. I just try and do this, play some golf with some friends. It’s good fun.’
