Brooklyn Beckham and wife Nicola Peltz recently enjoyed dinner with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry at a property in Montecito home in California, it emerged this week
David Beckham was “absolutely furious” with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle during their bitter feud, it is today claimed.
The former England footballer became angry when the Duke and Duchess of Sussex accused he and Victoria of leaking stories about them to the press. The feud has now resurfaced in the media as it emerged Brooklyn Beckham and wife Nicola Peltz had dinner with Harry and Meghan in Montecito, California – amid Brooklyn’s explosive controversy over missing his dad’s 50th birthday celebrations.
It is now reported David and Victoria, 51, had no knowledge of Brooklyn and Nicola’s soirée with Harry and Meghan, with whom they were very close. Posh and Becks were even on the guest list for the royal wedding in 2018, it is understood. Things turned sour after Harry and Meghan left the UK for a new life in California and, in 2022, the couple were nowhere to be seen when Brooklyn and Nicola tied the knot.
David remains angry about the allegations, it is said. A source told Mail Online: “Brooklyn knows how hurt David and Victoria were when Harry and Meghan accused them of briefing stories about them. David, who is very mild mannered, was absolutely furious.”

It was reported Victoria had lent Meghan her all-important little black book of her favourite hairdressers and stylist in London Further details of their friendship were then shared in the press, which sparked the row between the four. The insider continued: “Victoria was especially good to Meghan in the beginning and it all got thrown back in her face.”
But Brooklyn, a 26-year-old model, is understood to have bonded with Prince Harry at the dinner on Wednesday. Harry reportedly offered Brooklyn his “unwavering support” amid the fall-out with his own parents and siblings. The function wasn’t just the two couples, though, as approximately 20 of Harry’s friends were invited.
“I am reliably informed [it was] a much larger gathering hosted by Brian Robbins, 61, the CEO of television giant Paramount and Nickelodeon, and his wife Tracy, 49, who are neighbours of Harry and Meghan in Montecito,” writes showbusiness editor Katie Hind for the Daily Mail today.
“Far from an intimate occasion, there were more than 20 people at the party, held at the Robbins’ vast, $17 million, six-bedroom villa, with its 4,500 bottle wine cellar and 88ft swimming pool.”
It may be little comfort to Victoria and David, who is currently starring in football chat show Beckham & Friends Live on Paramount+. The an ardent royalist, who famously queued for 12 hours to pay his respects to the Queen as she lay in state, has kept his distance from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex since the row. He does, however, maintain close links with Prince William and King Charles.
In June last year, the former Manchester United midfielder met the monarch in a heartwarming encounter at the Highgrove Estate in Gloucestershire and the pair bonded – over their love for bees.
