David Beckham appeared to take the first step toward repairing his strained relationship with his eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, amid ongoing rumors of a family feud. Tensions reportedly began after Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, skipped David’s 50th birthday party in May, and the situation has worsened in recent months.
Recently, David liked one of Brooklyn’s Instagram reels, where Brooklyn was seen smiling, holding his two dogs, and cooking spaghetti carbonara. The post, which also showed Brooklyn wearing his wedding ring, drew over 14,000 likes, including from his father, with some fans noting the resemblance between the two. This public gesture comes shortly after Victoria Beckham also liked one of her son’s posts.
The apparent olive branches follow Brooklyn and Nicola renewing their vows last week after three years of marriage, an event neither David nor Victoria attended. The family rift reportedly traces back to tensions during the couple’s 2022 wedding, when Victoria allegedly upset Nicola by taking over their first dance. An insider claimed that in the lead-up to the wedding, the two women did not get along.
The situation further escalated when Brooklyn’s brother Romeo was rumored to be dating his older brother’s alleged ex, Kim Turnbull, a claim Turnbull denied. The reported relationship sparked more discord, and Brooklyn and Nicola chose not to attend David’s birthday celebration in London, allegedly to avoid being in the same room with Romeo and Turnbull.
While the feud appears ongoing, David’s and Victoria’s recent social media interactions with Brooklyn suggest there may be an effort to mend the family relationship.
