Brooklyn Beckham’s ongoing estrangement from his family has sparked concern amongst fans of the Beckham brood for months now, after the 26-year-old and his wife, Nicola Peltz, opted to skip several major family events with no explanation.
After months of speculation as to the nature of their rift, rumors have only grown, with some believing that it originated at Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding, while others believe the estrangement has to do with Romeo Beckham’s girlfriend, Kim Turnbull.
A message of love
The second-eldest of the Beckham brood took to Instagram to share a cryptic message about love amid the reported feud, indicating that there may be a reconciliation in sight. Romeo reposted a video of Spanish football manager Luis Enrique, who shared an emotional story about losing his daughter to cancer at just nine years old.
Luis’ daughter Xana passed away in 2019 after a battle with a rare form of bone cancer, and his approach to dealing with grief inspired Romeo to share a touching message. “I watch stuff like this and look at myself and think why am I stressing bout something so small in the grand scheme of things,” he wrote above the video.
“Love who you love without questions, take care of each other, respect each other and enjoy life,” he concluded, alongside a white heart and a camera emoji.
Ground zero
This message comes after rumors circulated that the Beckham feud began when Romeo started dating Kim, who reportedly had a brief fling with Brooklyn years prior.
After a fan commented, “It’s appropriate to date your brother’s ex, too? Cool,” under a previous post of Romeo and Kim together, his little brother Cruz set the record straight in the comment section, simply writing: “Brooklyn and Kim never dated.”
Fans began to notice that something was amiss in May when Brooklyn and Nicola opted to skip David’s milestone 50th birthday bash in Miami, despite living just a short flight away in Los Angeles.

The pair chose to go to the Coachella music festival instead of Victoria’s 51st birthday party in another blow to the family, and did not wish either of his parents a happy birthday on social media in a break from tradition.
Ignoring the noise

“People are always going to talk. What matters is that we’re happy together,” the Cloud23 founder told the publication. Nicola added that it wasn’t “always easy” to ignore the whispers, and that she wanted to set the record straight.
“On TikTok there are always random stories popping up about us,” she said. “When I see fake news, my instinct is to shut it down. It’s not worth it. I just scroll past and move on.“
The duo then shared insight into their “intense” 2022 wedding, where they made sure to be present with each other amongst it all.
“Someone gave us this advice, and I’m so glad we listened: Take a moment during [your wedding] day just for the two of you. Step away, breathe, be together. Those were my favorite moments,” the heiress said.
“Weddings can be intense, especially when you’re busy making sure everyone else is having fun,” she continued. “That little break reminded us what it’s really about: us.”
