Brooklyn Beckham's Scathing Attack At Parents In Instagram Rant: "Mum Invited Women From My Past"

Brooklyn Beckham, the eldest son of former Manchester United footballer David Beckham and Victoria Beckham, broke months of silence about the chatter around the affairs in his family, especially with regards to his relationship with his mother and father. In a series of raw, unfiltered Instagram stories, Brooklyn attempted to officially sever his public connection with his parents, David and Victoria Beckham. The statement was more than a mere social media update, but rather a clear attempt to share his side of the story, highlighting why reconciliation is no longer a possibility for him. This breakdown follows years of tabloid speculation, but the specificity of Brooklyn's latest posts suggests a bridge has been permanently burned.

At the heart of Brooklyn's grievances is the allegation that his family prioritises public relations over genuine connections. He described "Brand Beckham" as an all-consuming entity that demanded perfect family photo opportunities at the expense of his own mental health.

"For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family," Brooklyn shared in one of the Instagram stories. "The performative social media posts, family events, and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into."

Brooklyn claimed that since distancing himself from the family circle, the "overwhelming anxiety" he carried for years has vanished.

The Wedding Drama

In the Instagram stories, the 26-year-old also shed light on his 2022 wedding with Nicola Peltz in Palm Beach, which Brooklyn now claims was the catalyst for the permanent rift. He confirmed several long-rumoured incidents that have been floating in the media.

Brooklyn alleged that weeks before his wedding, his parents pressured and "attempted to bribe" him to sign away the rights to his name, which would have impacted his future children.

He also supported Nicola's claim that Victoria cancelled the production of her custom wedding gown at the "eleventh hour," leaving the bride scrambling for a replacement.

In a particularly shocking detail, Brooklyn claimed Victoria "hijacked" his planned first dance with Nicola, dancing "inappropriately" on him in front of their 500 guests and leaving him feeling "humiliated."

Severing Ties In 2025

The tensions in the family reached a boiling point in late 2025 when David Beckham shared a New Year's Eve retrospective of his 2025 highlights, which included his 50th birthday and his knighthood. But, Brooklyn was entirely absent from the 20-photo carousel.

Brooklyn clarified that he and Nicola had actually travelled to London for David's 50th birthday in May 2025. However, he claimed they were "rejected for a week" in their hotel room. He alleged David refused to see them unless it was at the star-studded party surrounded by cameras. He eventually agreed to a meeting but on the condition that Nicola was not invited.

Most recently, in December 2025, reports surfaced that Brooklyn had blocked his parents and siblings-Romeo, Cruz, and Harper-on social media. His brother Cruz later confirmed this, stating that the family "woke up blocked."

Brooklyn's final word on the matter was a plea for a different kind of life: "My wife and I do not want a life shaped by image, press, or manipulation. All we want is peace, privacy, and happiness for us and our future family."

The Beckhams have yet to issue a formal response to Brooklyn's claims.
