David Beckham has suffered another blow as his eldest son Brooklyn Beckham cosied up to his father-in-law Nelson Peltz for his birthday after snubbing his own dad’s party
Brooklyn Beckham is sure to cause some upset with his latest move as he joined in the birthday celebrations for his wife Nicola Peltz’s billionaire dad Nelson. The eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham has been locked in a family feud ever since he snubbed the football icon’s 50th birthday.
Both Brooklyn and Nicola chose not to attend any of David’s celebrations in May, despite flying into London from their home in Los Angeles. The blows didn’t stop there, however, as he has failed to acknowledge David’s long awaited knighthood and Father’s Day.
Reports have claimed the 26-year-old has stopped responding to messages from his famous parents and siblings as the fallout intensified. He has continued to stick by wife Nicola, who faced the blame for tensions rising in the family.
However in yet another painful moment for Posh and Becks, Brooklyn has been seen cosying up with Nicola’s dad. The actress shared a string of photos showing Brooklyn beaming alongside her family at a 83rd birthday celebration for Nelson.
Brooklyn posed by Nicola’s dad in a number of snaps as she shared a gushing tribute to him. Nicola wrote: “happy birthday dad! i am so lucky to be your daughter, you’re the most loving and supportive father i could ever dream of.
“i love you more than I could ever begin to express – you’re the wind beneath my wings. I loved celebrating you yesterday! Thank you for always being there for us – our constant love and support.”
Nicola then shared a family snap to her Instagram Story and captioned it: “My world.” It comes as Brooklyn’s mum, Victoria, 51, enjoyed her own bittersweet family time back in the UK.
Amid the ongoing pain, Victoria made sure to surround herself with her family. The businesswoman enjoyed time with her own parents as they lapped up the sunny weather back home.
Victoria, who smiled as she stood in between her mum and dad, declared: “Family weekends make me happy!!! Love you @jackie.adams.” It is unclear if Brooklyn has reached out after David’s recent hospital stay.
A source close to the former Manchester United star confirmed Sir David underwent secret surgery to repair a broken wrist that he sustained 22 years ago, during a friendly football match against South Africa in 2003.
However, things took a turn last week when Brooklyn reached out to his family for the first time on social media. He posted a moving message to his paternal grandma, Sandra and said: “Happy birthday nanny xx love you so much.”
Yet, insiders still believe there is no way he will bury the hatchet with his parents. Last month, the Mirror revealed how David and Victoria’s eldest son was in London at the same time as his dad, but kept his visit a secret.
A pal revealed: “Brooklyn had kept the visit quiet from not only his mum and dad but his siblings and extended family. It was terribly sad that he had flown thousands of miles to London and hadn’t engaged at all. It would have been very easy to meet up.”
Sources close to Nicola have hit out at claims she is behind the distance between the family. They said: “She is not isolating him at all. He is free to do what he wants and he loves his wife and they are happy together. They are each other’s family.”
