Victoria Beckham’s Upbeat Weekend Amidst Family Drama Speculation
“Happy weekend x,” Beckham, 51, posted on her Instagram Stories, accompanied by a selfie taken while her hairstylist was perfecting her signature bob.
David Beckham’s 50th Birthday Celebration
Earlier in the week, Victoria celebrated David Beckham’s 50th birthday with a lavish, star-studded celebration in London.
“So wonderful to round off an amazing week celebrating @davidbeckham at 50 with incredible friends,” Victoria shared on Instagram on Monday, May 5. “Still laughing and dancing after all these years!! We love you all so much.”
Family Dynamics: Absences and Alleged Rifts
The festivities included friends, sons Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20, and daughter Harper, 13. However, eldest son Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, and his spouse, Nicola Peltz Beckham, were conspicuously absent.
Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola’s noted absence has fueled conjecture about a possible strain between the newlyweds and his renowned family. While no family member has openly acknowledged any discord, an insider revealed to Us Weekly that David and Victoria are weary of the ongoing “drama.”
Inside the Alleged Family Feud
“David and Victoria are over it,” the source stated earlier this month. “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.”
Rumors Persist Despite Denials
The reasons behind Brooklyn and Nicola’s absence remain unclear, a separate source indicated to Us that friction remains between the actress and Victoria. Speculation about a rift ignited when Nicola chose not to wear a wedding gown from Victoria’s fashion label for her 2022 nuptials to Brooklyn. At the time, Nicola, Victoria, and Brooklyn refuted claims of animosity or wounded feelings.
Past Statements and Lingering Tensions
“I was going to and I really wanted to, and then a few months down the line, [Victoria] realized that her atelier couldn’t do it, so then I had to pick another dress,” Nicola explained to Variety in August 2022, dismissing feud rumors. “She didn’t say you can’t wear it; I didn’t say I didn’t want to wear it.”
However, a source speaking to Us, suggested that the underlying Beckham family drama “never really got smoothed over.”
Brooklyn’s Perspective
“You can tell it still affects everyone,” the source revealed to Us. “The tension is still present, and it’s hard for Brooklyn at times. Brooklyn’s having a tough time with it. He’s super stubborn and just wants space from his family right now.”
