Rumours of a Beckham family feud have gained fresh traction. Brooklyn Beckham, the 26-year-old aspiring chef and style icon, made a surprise trip to London recently but reportedly gave his superstar parents, David and Victoria, a complete miss. Far from a warm family reunion, Brooklyn’s low-key visit has only fuelled speculation about tensions simmering behind the scenes.
Brooklyn was in London for a brief work trip, filming a campaign for luxury fashion brand Moncler, which he and his wife, Nicola Peltz, currently represent. According to an insider quoted by Page Six, the couple was staying just a stone’s throw from the Beckham family home in West London. Yet, Brooklyn made no effort to visit his parents or younger siblings — Romeo, Cruz and Harper.
It’s sad, really. David and Victoria didn’t even know Brooklyn was in London. It’s becoming increasingly clear how strained things are behind the scenes,” the source told the media outlet.

Brooklyn’s visit to London was brief. He wrapped up his shoot by 3:30 pm on May 19, returned to his hotel and flew back to the US the next morning, where he lives with his wife. Interestingly, David Beckham was also in London at the same time, attending an event with King Charles III at the Highgrove Estate Shop, before heading to New York for a Hugo BOSS event.
This latest incident comes right after Brooklyn and Nicola skipped the 50th birthday celebrations of the former footballer. Taking to her Instagram account, Victoria posted pictures from the lavish family get-together. While the parents were joined by their children, Romeo, Cruz and Harper, their eldest, Brooklyn, and his wife, Nicola, were missing from the frame.
The singer-turned-fashion designer even tagged the trio in the post, with the caption reading, “Creating special memories with family and friends. We love you all.”
This post further intensified the speculations of a family rift.
For years, rumours of tension between Victoria Beckham and Nicola Peltz have simmered, dating back to 2022 during the extravagant preparations for Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding. Reports suggested a fallout over wedding dress choices and other details. While both parties shared affectionate messages and photos online, hinting at reconciliation, recent reports have reignited speculation about a rift. Neither the Beckhams nor Brooklyn and Nicola have addressed the alleged feud.
