Victoria Beckham made a public declaration of love for all four of her children amid ongoing speculation about the relationship between her eldest son, Brooklyn, and his parents following his no-show at dad David’s recent 50th birthday celebrations.
Posting to her Instagram Stories on Monday, May 19, Victoria, 51, shared a cute photo of her parents, Jackie and Anthony, alongside Brooklyn, 26, and his siblings, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 13. She accompanied the photo with the words, “We both love you all so much,” and a heart emoji.
The affectionate post came a day after Victoria also tagged Brooklyn in a selection of family throwback photos to celebrate Anthony’s birthday. So far, Brooklyn hasn’t reshared or acknowledged any of his mom’s content. He has, however, used his Instagram Stories to share pictures and appeals from his wife Nicola Peltz’s rescue dog shelter.
The Beckham family has allegedly been navigating a difficult time in recent months, with Brooklyn and Nicola seemingly distancing themselves from his parents and siblings. The Beckhams threw several different events to celebrate David’s milestone birthday on May 2, including a black-tie meal in London and a family party in the Cotswolds, but the young couple were conspicuously absent.
“David and Victoria are over it,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly earlier in May of the perceived drama. “They’ve thrown in the towel over the whole thing. David and Victoria just want to treat everyone the same and approach life like a family, and the family does things a certain way, but Brooklyn isn’t playing it like that, and everything is a drama.”
While it’s not known why Brooklyn and Nicola skipped the birthday celebrations, a second source claimed to Us that there was lingering tension between the actress and Victoria. Rumors of a feud began circulating in 2022 after Nicola didn’t wear a wedding gown made by her future mother-in-law’s eponymous fashion brand. Victoria, Nicola and Brooklyn, however, all denied any bad blood or hurt feelings.
The latest twist in the saga broke on Thursday, May 15, when reports emerged that Brooklyn and Nicola had joined Prince Harry and Meghan Markle for a VIP group dinner at their home in Montecito, California. With the Sussexes in the middle of a very high-profile rift with the royals, the world couldn’t help but wonder if the two couples might have discussed their eerily similar family dramas.
Victoria, meanwhile, has been eager to show how blissful life is chez Beckham. On Sunday, May 18, she shared a photo of a heart-shaped shortbread cookie David had baked for her. “Apparently they taste great!” she wrote, alongside a laughing emoji, implying she hadn’t tasted the treat yet.
