In the middle of rumored family tension, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham shows where his heart truly lies. On Thursday, July 10, Brooklyn, the eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, took to Instagram to celebrate Harper Seven’s 14th birthday with a sweet and stylish tribute.
The 26-year-old posted a candid photo on his Instagram Stories featuring himself, Harper, and his wife, actress Nicola Peltz Beckham, at what looked like a glamorous event. The message was short but packed with love: “Happy birthday harper we love u x.”
And just like that, despite whispers of a rift in the famous Beckham family, Brooklyn reminded everyone that some bonds, like that between an older brother and his little sister, are unshakeable.
Sibling Love in the Spotlight
In the photo, Brooklyn is suited up in a sleek tux, Harper looks elegant in a soft pink silk gown, and Nicola adds a chic twist with a white waistcoat, black bow tie, and tailored black trousers. Nicola, 30, also reposts the image on her Instagram Stories, amplifying the birthday love.
According to a source who spoke with PEOPLE, Brooklyn and Harper have always shared a unique connection: “He’s always had a special bond with Harper. He loves her dearly.”

A Beckham Birthday Is Never Low-Key
Of course, Brooklyn wasn’t the only family member celebrating Harper’s big day. Victoria Beckham, 51, turned up the emotion with a beautiful tribute on Instagram: “Happy birthday to my world,” she began, sharing a mix of nostalgic clips and sweet family snaps. “You are my everything and I’m so proud of the strong, confident, kind and talented young lady you are becoming. You’re my best friend and I’m so lucky I get to be your mummy.”
David Beckham, now 50, added his heartfelt message, referring to Harper as “Daddy’s Pretty Lady” and praising her for her beauty inside and out:
“Thank you for making each day brighter for us all 🩷 we love you Harpie, have the best day ever.”
Romeo Beckham, 22, also chimed in with a sibling shoutout, posting a throwback photo on Instagram Stories and writing: “Happy 14th to the most amazing human there is love you always and forever.”
Is Brooklyn Trying to Reconnect?
Whether Brooklyn’s birthday post signals a thaw in the rumored chilly family dynamics remains to be seen. But no matter how complicated things may be behind closed doors, Harper still holds a huge place in her big brother’s heart.
Sources close to the family maintain that there’s still love beneath the hurt. One insider told PEOPLE: “They love and are always there for him. They’re just hurt and disappointed that he’s now playing no part in family life.”

Family rifts are never easy, especially when played out under the harsh lights of the public eye. However, Brooklyn’s birthday gesture may indicate that not all bridges are burned.
