Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz-Beckham haven’t backed down. The married couple is in the midst of a complex rift with the Beckham family, and appear to be carrying out their lives as normal, sharing posts on social media and being photographed running errands in their neighborhood in Los Angeles. In new photos, the Peltz-Beckhams were photographed shopping for groceries at Whole Foods, with Brooklyn wearing a t-shirt that may be interpreted as a dig towards his siblings, who’ve remained in support of their parents.
In photos captured over the weekend, Brooklyn and Nicola were seen leaving Whole Foods with a bag of groceries, with Nicola holding on to her husband’s arm. The images show the two walking towards their car, withher wearing an outfit made up of jeans and a flowy cream-colored shirt, and black heels. She completed the look with a black purse and some sunglasses.
In the case of Brooklyn, he opted for baggy jeans, brown boots, and a black cap. The most eye-catching detail of his look was his t-shirt, plain white, with the Ford logo printed in the front. It reads “Good brothers service,” one of the company’s previous slogans, which viewers believe is a pointed reference to his siblings: Romeo, Cruz, and Harper. Brooklyn’s younger siblings have continued to show support for their parents, spending the holidays together and attending events.
Their support continues in the wake of Brooklyn’s incendiary statement, making it clear that he had no interest in reconciling with his family.

On January 19th, Brooklyn Beckham shared a statement addressing the heavily covered rift between himself and his parents, making it clear that he didn’t want to reconcile with his family.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life. For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family. The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into,” he said.

I’ve been able to use my platform and my following for UNICEF. And it has been the biggest tool to make people aware of what’s going on around the world for children.”
“And I have tried to do the same, I’ve tried to do the same with my children, to educate them,” he said. “They make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes. That is how they learn.”
