Victoria Beckham includes Brooklyn in Father’s Day post amid family tensions

Victoria Beckham included Brooklyn in Father’s Day tribute to David Beckham amid ongoing family tensions

Victoria Beckham included her eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, in a Father’s Day tribute to David Beckham, months after public attention focused on reported tensions within the family.

The fashion designer shared an Instagram post on June 21 celebrating David’s role as a father. The post featured photographs of the former footballer alongside all four of the couple’s children: Brooklyn, Romeo, Cruz and Harper.

Brooklyn’s inclusion attracted attention as reports have highlighted a period of public distance between the eldest Beckham child and his parents.

The Father’s Day tribute came after several family events at which Brooklyn was not present. He did not appear alongside relatives during David’s Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony earlier this month, according to reports.

Public discussion surrounding the family relationship increased in January when Brooklyn made a series of claims on Instagram Stories regarding his parents and his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham.

Reports stated that he accused David and Victoria of attempting to interfere in his relationship and prioritising “public promotion and endorsements” over family matters.

Victoria later addressed the situation in an interview without directly naming Brooklyn. “We love our children so much,” she said. “We've always tried to be the best parents that we can be.”

Brooklyn recently appeared in a World Cup-themed DoorDash advertisement that some observers interpreted as referencing the ongoing situation.
