A high‑drama saga is unfolding within Beckham-Gate as sources confirm Brooklyn Beckham has formally requested “no contact” with his parents David and Victoria, and even reportedly blocked—or been blocked by—his younger brothers Romeo and Cruz. This explosive family feud is now the talk of Instagram, Reddit and tabloid circles alike.
The Rift: Brooklyn’s Request for “No Contact”
Insiders reveal Brooklyn Beckham, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz have imposed a complete communication freeze on David and Victoria Beckham, as well as younger siblings Romeo and Cruz. Sources tell Page Six that he has explicitly asked for “no contact” due to mounting tensions that began with disagreement over Nicola’s wedding choices and escalated over events at family gatherings.
Brooklyn and Nicola also skipped David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebration in May 2025, citing discomfort over the presence of Romeo’s girlfriend, DJ Kim Turnbull. Despite growing speculation, neither side has publicly clarified the reasons for the absence.
Instagram Fallout: Public Blocks or Private Snubs?
Fans noticed a shocking shift on social media: Brooklyn and Nicola are no longer following Romeo and Cruz on Instagram, and their siblings have reportedly reciprocated—or initiated—the block. The chain of silence has elevated the internal feud into public view.
Meanwhile, Victoria Beckham has raised eyebrows with selective social media behavior. She recently shared a Father’s Day post tagging David, Romeo, Cruz, and daughter Harper—but conspicuously omitted Brooklyn. Given that Victoria and David are still followed by Brooklyn, detractors suggest the omission speaks volumes.
Victoria’s “likes” pattern has also drawn scrutiny: between July 5–26, she consistently liked posts from Brooklyn without Nicola—while ignoring couple photos. Her subtle social media activity continues to fuel speculation for a deeper estrangement.
Romeo’s Position: Standing with Mum & Dad
With Brooklyn retreating, Romeo and Cruz have leaned into solidarity with their parents. Romeo has taken on the emotional heavy lifting—sending flowers to Victoria on Mother’s Day and visibly supporting David publicly. He recently posted group photos with Cruz and Harper on a night out in Miami following the Instagram drama.
Fans also noted Romeo’s Instagram Story repost of Justin Bieber’s “Walking Away”—viewed by many as a cryptic message to his estranged older brother.
Kim Turnbull & the Brothers’ Feud: The Spark?
The feud reportedly ignited when Romeo began dating DJ and model Kim Turnbull—who Brooklyn briefly connected with as a teen. Brooklyn and Nicola were reportedly uncomfortable with her presence at key family events, especially David’s birthday. Brooklyn’s absence at that event has been widely attributed to the tensions surrounding that relationship.
Kim recently took to Instagram to deny she ever dated Brooklyn romantically, calling any claims “lies” and stating their connection was limited to a school friendship. She explicitly asked to be removed from the family drama.
Sources confirm Brooklyn’s estrangement predates Romeo and Kim’s split—which occurred in late May. While some insiders believe the romance may have exacerbated existing tensions, Kim’s denial has fueled debate around whether she was merely scapegoated in the feud narrative.
Vow Renewal: A Statement of Defiance
In a bold move, Brooklyn and Nicola renewed their wedding vows on August 2, 2025, in a private ceremony near New York City. Notably, none of the Beckham family—including David, Victoria, Romeo, or Cruz—attended the event. The vow renewal appeared less an elder family celebration and more a reassertion of independence.
Sources describe the ceremony as an intentional declaration of loyalty between the couple—amid an atmosphere of alienation from his birth family. The timing symbolized a consolidation of the Beckham‑Peltz union in the face of mounting rifts.
Red Flags & Fan Theory: Reddit and TikTok Take Over
Online reaction has been swift. On Reddit forums, users speculate about a deeper schism: some suggest Nicola is an outsider forcing a wedge in the Beckham brand machine, while others argue Brooklyn’s silence reflects deeper injury than wedding complaints can explain.
TikTok and Threads are awash with posts combing through old Beckhams footage, trying to decode hidden meaning behind family vacations, holiday posts, and birthday messages. One viral theory: Brooklyn’s selective absence and social blackout represent a David-and-Victoria‑powered loyalty test—one that Brooklyn didn’t pass.
Financial & Cultural Divide: Money vs. Identity?
Commentary has emerged on the family’s shifting power dynamics. The Peltz family fortune reportedly dwarfs the Beckhams’, and that economic imbalance has led some to argue Brooklyn prefers aligning with his new in-laws. A recent Evening Standard piece driving that narrative notes the financial and cultural divorce is now just as significant as the emotional one.
Others suggest Brooklyn is simply forging his own path, separate from the Beckham brand and expectations—even if that means deepening distance from his heritage.
