Brooklyn Beckham has seemingly taken a further swipe at dad Sir David Beckham by showing there are certain family members he is still close with.
The photographer-turned-chef and his famous family have been making headlines for weeks due to an alleged rift.
Reports of bad blood in the Beckham camp first resurfaced when Brooklyn, 26, and his wife, Nicola Peltz, 30, failed to show up at Sir David’s 50th birthday bash, despite all his other children attending.
Since then, the hot sauce brand owner has made it clear where he’d rather be, vowing to ‘always choose’ Nicola, whom he wed in 2022, with a seemingly very telling Instagram post.
As for his parents, while neither Sir David nor wife Victoria has addressed the reported feud, they have made several declarations of love for all their kids, Brooklyn included, online.
Alas, these have not been reciprocated, meaning Brooklyn’s latest Insta post dedicated to his grandmother might come as a surprise.
Proving that not all family ties have been severed, the eldest Beckham boy wished Sir David’s mother, Sandra, a happy birthday.
Taking to his Story, he wrote alongside a throwback snap: ‘Happy birthday nanny xx love you so much’.
It’s certainly a stark contrast to his actions around his father’s milestone, which he let pass without a word publicly.
At the time, a source told Metro that Brooklyn was ‘disappointed in himself’ for doing so.
Sandra was showered with love by all Beckham children on her 76th birthday, with Romeo, 22, also writing alongside a post: ‘Happy birthday love you lots’.
Cruz, 20, shared with his snap: ‘Happy birthday @sandra_beckham49 I love you lots.’
Proud son Sir David, who was recently awarded a knighthood, uploaded a series of childhood photos to his grid, writing: ‘Thank you for always being there for us all’.
Former Spice Girl Victoria then hinted at some big party plans in the comments: ‘Happy birthday Sandra xx we love u xxxxxx can’t wait to celebrate you!!! Xx’
Brooklyn’s latest bday post isn’t actually the only dig to come this week, as fans were also aghast when he wished Nicola’s father, billionaire tycoon Nelson Peltz, a happy birthday.
Earlier this week, Brooklyn posted a picture of Nelson, him, and his wife, writing: ‘Happy birthday, Nelson, we love you.’
Lola actress Nicola has long been open about her love for her family, telling Byrdie in February 2024: ‘Family is everything to me, and I mean that with my whole heart.’
She added: ‘I go to Florida any chance I get, and we stay at my parents’ house. It honestly makes me so happy to wake up and have my siblings around. It’s really hard to get us all in the same place because there are so many of us. When we’re all together, it’s so fun.’
It’s believed that Victoria is desperate for Brooklyn to end his feud with his own father, with a source close to her telling Metro that she is ‘heartbroken’ over how things have changed.
‘She’s hoping Brooklyn will come around and see things for what they are. They’ve always been a close-knit family, and seeing how things are now has been devastating for Victoria and David,’ added the insider.
But while the Wannabe hitmaker and fashion designer is keen for a reconciliation, it might prove difficult given the recent social media activity of other relatives.
Last week, Brooklyn’s younger brother, Cruz, appeared to make a dig when someone wrote in the comments of a music TikTok he posted: ‘Are you going to stick with this job or going to become a race car driver next or something?’
Firing back and appearing to take aim at his brother’s ever-changing career, he wrote: ‘Wrong brother mate’.
And that’s not all, as Romeo has also hit out after his ex-girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, publicly denied ever dating Brooklyn, as rumours have suggested.
Following her statement, on his Story, Romeo shared a quote from 1953 film Roman Holiday with Audrey Hepburn’s character saying: ‘What the world needs is a return to sweetness and decency.’
Underneath, he wrote: ‘Be nice to people and don’t spread unnecessary lies,’ followed by a seemingly sarcastic kissing emoji.
It was previously claimed that the new relationship between Romeo and Kim, which lasted seven months—was the catalyst for Brooklyn’s feud with his family.
