Tom Cruise is reportedly standing by his friend David Beckham during what appears to be a tense time within the Beckham family. Rumors of a family rift have been making headlines after David and Victoria Beckham’s oldest son, Brooklyn, and his wife Nicola Peltz, did not attend David’s 50th birthday in May. This has created speculation that Brooklyn has grown distant from his parents.
According to a new report from Star Magazine, Tom Cruise has been checking in on David and offering him encouragement. A source claimed that Tom has advised David to “hang in there” and “stay strong,” even suggesting that if tough choices are needed like creating some space from Brooklyn, it might be necessary for peace of mind. Tom also reportedly encouraged David to “focus on the positives” during this difficult time.
The family drama may go back even further than David’s birthday, with reports suggesting tensions began around Brooklyn and Nicola’s 2022 wedding. Allegedly, certain events during the ceremony left some family members feeling hurt, which may have contributed to the strain.
Despite all the rumors, David Beckham shared a touching Father’s Day post earlier this month that included all four of his children, Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper, showing that he’s still trying to keep the family bond strong in public.
