Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, son of British celebrity couple David and Victoria Beckham, said he did not want to reconcile with his parents after a family rift that he described in a lengthy social media post on Monday.
The 26-year-old said his parents controlled press stories about his family and tried to ‘ruin’ his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz Beckham.
“I don’t want to reconcile with my family,” he wrote in a message to his 16.2 million Instagram followers.
“I won’t let myself be controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
Brooklyn is the eldest son of former England football captain David and his fashion designer and former pop star wife Victoria.
In his first appearance since Brooklyn criticized his family, David Beckham was asked about his relationship with his son at the 56th annual meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland.
However, the former footballer smiled and did not want to comment.
Meanwhile, people flocked to David Beckham’s latest Instagram post shared four days ago to express their thoughts in the comments section.
While some people joked about David and Victoria being “right about Nicola”, several followers said they believed Brooklyn Beckham.
Brooklyn married Nicola, an American actress and the daughter of billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz and former model Claudia Heffner Peltz, in 2022.
Spokespeople for David and Victoria Beckham did not immediately respond to requests for comment on their son’s statements.
