Brooklyn beckham's london trip deepens family rift as nicola's friends speak out

BROOKLYN BECKHAM'S RECENT SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS ARE SAID TO HAVE HURT HIS PARENTS DAVID AND VICTORIA AS THE FAMILY FEUD RUMBLES ON AFTER A WELL-PUBLICISED FALLOUT TOM BRYANT Associate

Editor (Showbiz) and WILLIAM MORGAN Reporter 05:00, 01 Jun 2025 Brooklyn Beckham's recent Instagram posts have reportedly caused further pain for his parents, David and Victoria, amid

their ongoing family feud. A video last week, in which he declared he would "always choose" his wife, was likely hurtful, but other posts have allegedly been just as distressing. A

photo uploaded three days ago shows Brooklyn enjoying a pint in a pub, with bottles of his own-brand hot sauce on the table. While seemingly innocuous, friends of the Beckhams recognised

the distinctive decor of London's Wigmore pub, part of the Langham Hotel where the family has occasionally stayed. A source revealed: "The fact that Brooklyn appeared to be in the

country and failed to see any of his family was heartbreaking. And not only that, but here he was posting about it." Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, had travelled to London

for a joint photoshoot with Italian luxury fashion brand Moncler, which took place near the Beckham family home in Holland Park. Meanwhile, his father David, 50, was just three miles away,

attending the Chelsea Flower show with the King. READ MORE: Shakira's gig cancelled last minute as 'structural issues' discovered at venueREAD MORE: Diddy's former

siblings and extended family. It was terribly sad that he had flown thousands of miles to London and hadn't engaged at all. It would have been very easy to meet up." Article

"I miss you and will love you forever." A close friend commented: "Brooklyn's heart is of course in the right place...but it hasn't gone unnoticed how all the while

he is posting about Nicola's family he is silent about his own, including his own grandfather whose birthday it was last week." Insiders suggest that heiress Nicola is being

blamed for what some see as "performative" social media displays by Brooklyn. They voiced concerns that she might be pulling the strings behind her husband's online persona,

leading to him being "isolated" from his friends and family. One friend remarked: "She is creating conflict where there is none and divides are springing up left, right and

centre." However, a source close to the lovebirds has clapped back at the idea of Nicola being "controlling" asserting that Brooklyn is definitely calling his own shots. The

insider defended: "She is not isolating him at all. He is free to do what he wants and he loves his wife and they are happy together. They are each other's family." Brooklyn

captioned a recent motorbike video, filmed in Beverly Hills: "My whole world. I will love you forever. I always choose you baby." A source claims that this was "completely

misinterpreted" as a swipe at his own family. The insider continued: "It's a real shame that what Brooklyn did – which was a statement of love for his wife – is being

portrayed as something that it's not. "He loves his wife and everyone should be proud: his parents, his family friends. He stands by his wife and that's a normal thing to be a

loving and supportive husband." When questioned about Brooklyn's willingness to reconcile, the source mentioned the current tense situation makes it impossible. Sources close to

Nicola have previously suggested that "an outsider coming into the Beckham family, she has helped Brooklyn see the emotional abuse and toxic behaviour within". These allegations,

labelled as "patently untrue and ludicrous" by David and Victoria's friends, are seen as the final straw for any potential reconciliation, insiders claim. Nonetheless, sources

near Nicola say she's distressed by the public nature of the dispute and doesn't want conflict. Her associates state she made efforts to fit in. "Nicola was working hard to

have a healthy relationship," one friend notes. However, Beckham family friends counter this, with one commenting: "It's hard to find a way back after absurd allegations of

emotional abuse." Despite claims from Nicola's friends that she isn't seeking a fight, her track record suggests otherwise. Just last week, news broke that she had enlisted

the services of renowned celebrity lawyer "Mad Dog" Marty Singer, whose past clients include big names like Michael Jackson and Kim Kardashian. Nicola is currently embroiled in a

legal dispute with a dog groomer whom she accuses of causing the deaths of her chihuahua Nala and French bulldog Frankie. This follows previous legal skirmishes with her wedding planners. An

insider commented: "Nicola's family haven't become billionaires by being shy and retiring... it's in their nature to fight for what they believe is right." As for

the ongoing feud with her in-laws, many are left wondering how it will ever be resolved. Some speculate that a significant indicator will be whether Brooklyn acknowledges his sister

Harper's 14th birthday next month – he has not publicly celebrated Victoria's 51st or David's 50th birthdays this year. Brooklyn and Nicola have shared photos of themselves

with Harper, and Brooklyn is believed to hold a special fondness for his youngest sibling. Article continues below A friend revealed: "Brooklyn isn't talking to his mum and dad, as

well as Romeo, because he disapproves of his girlfriend. But in that case this 'feud' should start and end with them.. "The fact he has distanced himself from the whole,

extended family is what makes this so sad. Perhaps Harper's birthday – and an acknowledgement of it – will be the first steps towards a peace deal." We'll be keeping an eye on

developments next month – but at this rate, peace seems a distant prospect.
