The Beckhams have been at the center of an almighty row after eldest son Brookyn, 26, reportedly cut all contact with his parents and siblings amid an ongoing fallout. Brooklyn has failed to acknowledge his family on social media, particularly recently as he snubbed his dad David’s 50 th birthday celebrations, refusing to show up to his parties or wish him well on social media.
Not only that, but he also made no public mention of congratulations to David on the news of his knighthood nor any social media tributes were given to David or Victoria on Father’s Day and Mother’s Day respectively.
Now the chef has a big decision to make as his sister Harper’s 14 th birthday is approaching on July 10 and if he fails to acknowledge it, it could leave her “devastated”. A source told MailOnline : “Brooklyn and Harper used to be inseparable.

“He adored her, he hopefully still does, but the problem is that Brooklyn has a track record for ignoring family birthdays now. It would be devastating for Harper not to hear from him. She hasn’t done anything and she’s only 13-years-old.
“David and Victoria very much blame Nicola for all of this but hopefully Brooklyn will see sense. While Harper doesn’t have her own Instagram yet, the family thing is to tag her in on their posts as #harperseven,” the source concluded.
Although the real reason behind the fallout has not been revealed, it’s been reported that Brooklyn’s wife Nicola, 30, is the reason behind why he no longer speaks to his family. After it was first claimed that Nicola could be at the heart of the falling out, Brooklyn took to Instagram to share support for his wife.
He posted a video on Instagram and captioned it: “My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you’re the most amazing person i know xx me and you forever baby." The pair got engaged back in July 2020 before tying the knot two years later.
Brooklyn and Nicola got married in a Jewish ceremony in Palm Beach, Florida, in tribute to his great-great-great grandfather who was Jewish and her father, Nelson Peltz, who also follows the faith. Over the years, Nicola has very much been a part of the family, often being included in family events and joining the Beckhams at red carpet events.
Brooklyn has always had a great relationship with his family, with the brood enjoying holidays together and being there to celebrate momentous occasions together. Notably, a video went viral on social media back in 2018, which showed Brooklyn surprising his father on his 43 rd birthday.
It showed David sitting a restaurant in London, as Brooklyn came up behind him and put his arms around him. As soon as the former footballer realised it was his son, he became overcome with emotion and the two embraced. Brooklyn had been in New York and travelled down to London to see his dad on his big day.
The former photographer made it clear that he hasn’t shunned his extended family as he acknowledged his grandmother Sandra’s 76 th birthday earlier this week. Alongside a sweet picture of the two, he gushed: “Happy birthday nanny xx love you so much.”
He’s also very much a part of Nicola’s family and shares a great rapport with her father Nelson and mother Claudia. Brooklyn showed his father-in-law a very public display of support as he wished the 83-year-old billionaire a happy birthday on his Instagram page yesterday.
David, Victoria and their children Harper, Romeo and Cruz live in London at their Holland Park mansion while Brooklyn and Nicola have a home in LA. It remains to be seen whether Brooklyn publicly acknowledges his sister’s birthday or whether the gap between the family members will widen if he snubs her.
