Hot sauce founder Brooklyn Beckham has been holidaying with his wife Nicola Peltz’s family as he keeps his distance from his famous parents David and Victoria Beckham
Brooklyn Beckham’s fallout with his famous mum and dad shows no signs of slowing down as he appears to reap the benefits of his billionaire father-in-law. The hot sauce founder, 26, has been locked in a family fallout with David and Victoria Beckham as he continued to stand with his wife Nicola Peltz.
Things haven’t been rosy between the Beckhams since Brooklyn and Nicola skipped David’s 50th birthday celebrations in May. Brooklyn went on to issue a series of snubs when it came to Father’s Day and David’s long awaited knighthood achievment.
The fallout seems to have spilled down the family as both Brooklyn’s younger brothers Romeo and Cruz have unfollowed him on social media. Brooklyn appears to be surrounding himself with his in-laws amid the drama and has even headed on holiday with them.
He sailed into Saint-Tropez on a £85million, 80 metre yacht called Project X as he lapped up the luxury getaway. It had been rented by Nicola’s parents, Nelson and Claudia Peltz, and set them back a staggering £1.2million a week.
Brooklyn avoided a run in with his parents as they arrived in the same French dock just two days later – which he reportedly was unaware of. They turned up on a £16million, 40 metre vessel named Seven.
“Brooklyn’s yacht dwarfs the one owned by David and Victoria. It’s a financial flex,” a source told the Sun. “Their relationship is beyond soured now but Brooklyn has really landed on his feet.
“Nicola and her parents, Nelson and Claudia, are his family now. And he’s clearly enjoying the spoils.” David and Victoria, who own their yacht that’s half the size of Brooklyn’s in-laws rented boat, are in Saint-Tropez with their sons Romeo and Cruz as well as daughter Harper.
However, a source told the Mirror that Brooklyn was unaware that David and Victoria were arriving in Saint-Tropez two days later. They added the couple had a lovely time and enjoyed the hospitality provided by Nelson.
Brooklyn, meanwhile, has been keen to share snaps of his own trip as he drank a bottle of beer next to Nelson. One moment showed Brooklyn leaning towards Nelson, who had his arm around his son-in-law, whilst another showed the in-laws embraced in a hug by a table.
Brooklyn has attracted attention over spending time with his in-laws lately amid claims he “doesn’t really feel like he fits into” his own family. A source told the Mirror that he’s also grown “so close” to Nicola’s family.
They said: “He just doesn’t feel his family have treated Nicola well and now that he’s grown so close to her family in the States, he doesn’t really feel like he fits into the Beckham family right now.”
Amid rumours of tension between Brooklyn and his parents, he is said to have met up with godfather Sir Elton John, who tried to act as “peacemaker”. He is said to have caught up with Brooklyn and Nicola over lunch in Cannes.
Elton is said to “adore” Brooklyn and have a “laugh” with Nicola, who he believes has a “great” sense of humour. A source told the Sun: “[Elton’s] utterly neutral in this row. Elton and David think the situation is terribly sad, and has gently suggested to all involved that life is short – and to patch things up.” The source said that the group had a “really fun long lunch” despite the tough conversation.
The Mirror has contacted Brooklyn’s representatives for comment.
