Recent events have brought a family conflict within the Beckham family back into the public eye. After Brooklyn Beckham publicly criticized his parents, David and Victoria, a video from the London premiere of the Netflix documentary Beckham is now being viewed in a new light. The video shows Brooklyn pulling his wife, Nicola Peltz, into a family photo, and she appeared distressed. Many fans now believe this moment foreshadowed the later, very public fallout between them.

Brooklyn Beckham, 26, publicly accused his parents, David and Victoria, of meddling in his marriage on Instagram Monday. He posted that they’d attempted to control his life and even harm his relationship with his wife, Nicola. He wrote that he felt incredibly uncomfortable and humiliated, describing years of what he called emotional manipulation.
Brooklyn’s social media posts caused the most upset when he detailed issues surrounding his 2022 wedding. He said Victoria unexpectedly canceled Nicola’s dress right before the event and then took over their first dance, which was originally planned to include a performance by Marc Anthony. He also alleged the family told Nicola she wasn’t considered one of them and attempted to pay her off to keep quiet about what happened.
Brooklyn addressed accusations that his wife manipulates him, stating the opposite is true. He explained he’s been under his parents’ control for much of his life. He also shared that distancing himself from his family has significantly improved his mental well-being, as he experienced overwhelming anxiety growing up, which has now disappeared.
The conflict between the families is said to have begun several months ago, escalating with missed gatherings and disagreements online. Brooklyn and Nicola didn’t attend Victoria’s 51st birthday celebration in Miami or David’s 50th in London. Reports indicate that Brooklyn’s absence from David’s party stemmed from a possible past relationship between Romeo Beckham’s girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, and himself.

The conflict escalated when Brooklyn unfollowed his brothers, Romeo and Cruz, on Instagram, and their mother, Nicola, did the same. Adding to the tension, a TikTok video surfaced of Romeo and Cruz seemingly making fun of someone with a “baby voice,” which many fans believed was aimed at Nicola.
People close to David and Victoria Beckham say they were surprised and deeply upset by Brooklyn’s public statements and the resulting drama. It’s also been reported that Brooklyn has instructed them to communicate through lawyers from now on.
Brooklyn made it clear he has no interest in making amends with his family. He explained, “I’m not trying to get back together with them. I’m finally taking control of my own life and standing up for what I believe in.”
Born in 1999, Brooklyn Beckham is the oldest child of David and Victoria Beckham. He started out as a photographer, even publishing a book called What I See, but now he’s focusing on cooking and shares recipes through his online show, Cookin’ with Brooklyn.
Nicola Peltz Beckham is an actress and comes from a wealthy family. She’s known for appearing in shows like Bates Motel and movies like Transformers: Age of Extinction and Holidate. She recently tried her hand at directing, making her debut with the film Lola.
David and Victoria Beckham are still well-known figures around the world. David is a co-owner of the Inter Miami CF soccer team and played a key role in bringing Lionel Messi to Major League Soccer. Victoria continues to build her successful fashion and beauty businesses, remaining a prominent style icon.
That famous red carpet incident from 2023 now appears to be a sign of bigger problems within the Beckham family. People online are discussing whether Brooklyn did the right thing by publicly supporting his wife, or if family disagreements should be kept personal.
