Brooklyn Beckham has blocked his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, and his brother Cruz on Instagram after Victoria liked one of his posts, escalating an ongoing family feud. The incident occurred within the last 24 hours, with Cruz confirming the block and revealing the family’s distress over the public dispute.
The drama began when Victoria Beckham, the former Spice Girls singer, liked a video posted by her eldest son, Brooklyn, in which he demonstrated how to roast a chicken using a beer-brining technique. The post, part of his ‘Cookin’ With Brooklyn’ series, gained attention after Victoria’s public endorsement, leading to a surge of comments from fans urging reconciliation. Brooklyn, apparently frustrated by the focus on his family issues, responded by blocking not only Victoria but also his father David and brother Cruz on Instagram.
Cruz Beckham, the youngest son, took to Instagram to clarify the situation, stating that his parents did not unfollow Brooklyn but were instead blocked by him. ‘NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son. Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked… as did I,’ he wrote, dispelling rumors that the Beckhams had initiated the social media cut-off. This public statement highlighted the deepening tension within the family and brought the feud into the spotlight.
Sources close to the family described David and Victoria as ‘heartbroken’ by the development, especially with Christmas approaching, a time when families typically come together. The insider emphasized that the Beckhams desire to resolve their issues privately, but Brooklyn’s actions have forced the matter into the public eye. The block means that the family can no longer view Brooklyn’s posts, symbolizing a significant estrangement.
The feud between Brooklyn and his family has been simmering for months, with notable incidents including his absence from David’s 50th birthday party in May. Brooklyn, who married actress Nicola Peltz in 2022, has been focusing on his life with her, reportedly seeking a ‘peaceful, drama-free’ existence. However, the social media block represents a major escalation, suggesting that reconciliation efforts have stalled.
In response to the block, it is reported that Brooklyn will not be joining the Beckhams at their Cotswolds home for Christmas. Instead, he and Nicola plan to spend the holidays with her family in Miami, further distancing himself from his birth family. This decision underscores the severity of the rift and the challenges ahead in mending relationships.
The public nature of the feud has captivated fans and media alike, with many expressing sympathy for the Beckhams while others critique Brooklyn’s handling of the situation. The use of social media to air family grievances has become a common theme in celebrity conflicts, and this episode serves as a reminder of the pressures faced by high-profile families. As the situation develops, observers are left wondering if and how the Beckhams will bridge this divide in the future.
