Brooklyn’s Birthday Snub

Brooklyn Beckham and his wife, actress Nicola Peltz, have once again fueled speculation about their ongoing feud with the Beckham family after sharing photos from a family celebration that noticeably excluded Brooklyn’s famous relatives.

Nicola took to Instagram to mark their godson Xander’s birthday, posting a cheerful photo of Brooklyn smiling beside a colorful cake. She captioned the post, “Happy birthday to our perfect godson Xander. We're so proud of you, we love you so much!” — a sweet message that Brooklyn later reshared to his own story.

The post quickly caught fans’ attention, as it came just weeks after Brooklyn was absent from his brother Romeo’s 23rd birthday celebrations. The Beckham family had reportedly gathered for a lavish London party, but Brooklyn’s absence — and his silence on social media — did not go unnoticed.

This latest move adds to the growing list of public snubs that have hinted at tension between the eldest Beckham son and his family. Since earlier this year, observers have noted Brooklyn’s distance from key family moments, including milestones and public events involving his parents, David and Victoria Beckham.

Reports of a social media unfollowing spree in July only deepened the speculation, though a source close to Brooklyn later claimed that neither he nor Nicola intentionally unfollowed his siblings, insisting they had “no idea” until the headlines broke.

Meanwhile, Victoria Beckham has reportedly sought to find closure amid the ongoing family strain. In her recent Netflix documentary, the designer reflected on both her professional journey and the emotional challenges of motherhood, revealing just how deeply the situation with Brooklyn has affected her.

According to a close insider, filming the documentary was an emotional experience for the former Spice Girl — a chance to revisit both triumphs and heartbreak. The source added that it helped her come to terms with the tension surrounding her eldest son and accept that it may be time to move forward.
