Grab a mug and hold on by the handle because the tea coming from a steaming member of the Beckham family is piping hot. After years of speculation, Brooklyn Beckham announced to the world this week that he is done with his famous parents, David and Victoria Beckham, and has no plans to reconcile after claiming his family tried to sabotage his marriage. “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,” Brooklyn said. In a lengthy post on Instagram, the 26-year-old said his parents have tried to ruin his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, well before the two tied the knot in 2022. “The night before our wedding, members of my family told me that Nicola was ‘not blood’ and ‘not family.’ Since the moment I started standing up for myself with my family, I’ve received endless attacks from my parents, both publicly and privately, that were sent to the press on their orders,” Brooklyn said. The Beckham’s first born continued with scathing allegations against his parents, including that they tried to bribe him to sign away the rights to his name, his mom refused to make Nicola’s wedding dress, and his parents would invite his former flings around the family to purposely make him and his wife uncomfortable. Brooklyn added that several members of his family allegedly told him that Nicola was “not blood” and “not family” ahead of their wedding day. But wait— the most public part of the allegations may be that Brooklyn claims Victoria “hijacked” the “first dance” during his wedding from his wife, Nicola, and “danced very inappropriately.” “My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song. In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage where the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead,” Brooklyn said. “She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable humiliated in my entire life. We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment.” Brooklyn and Nicola noticeably didn’t attend David’s 50th birthday bash last spring. Don’t worry, Brooklyn addressed this scenario as well. “We still travelled to London for my dad’s birthday and were rejected for a week as we waited in our hotel room trying to plan quality time with him. He refused all of our attempts, unless it was at his big birthday party with a hundred guests and cameras at every corner. When he finally agreed to see me, it was under the condition that Nicola wasn’t invited,” Brooklyn said. The now-obvious strain was solidified late last year when he blocked his parents and brothers on social media. “The narrative that my wife controls me is completely backwards,” Brooklyn said. “I have been controlled by my parents for most of my life.” David was asked about his son’s statements on Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland. The soccer legend chose to be “Switzerland” on the matter and ignored the question from the reporter. Later in the day, David appeared on a talk show where he seemingly addressed the accusations by discussing the positives and negatives of social media. “It can be dangerous, but what I’ve found—especially with my kids as well—use it for the right reasons,” Beckham said on CNBC’s “Squawkbox.” He shared how he has used social media for good before adding, “I’ve tried to do the same with my children—to educate them. They make mistakes. Children are allowed to make mistakes … you have to sometimes let them make those mistakes as well.” Brooklyn doesn’t view his social media spill as a mistake, instead saying, “My wife and I do not want a life shaped by image, press, or manipulation. All we want [is] peace, privacy and happiness for us and our future family.” Though Brooklyn said he has found “peace” since parting with his once picture-perfect family, stay tuned for the next chapter in this apparent fractured fairytale.
