Victoria Beckham showcases closeness with youngest son amid allegations from Brooklyn Peltz Beckham

Victoria Beckham broke her social media silence on January 21, 2026 (ET), following explosive allegations made by her son, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham. Rather than addressing Brooklyn's claims, Victoria used her platform to showcase her bond with her youngest son, Cruz Beckham. Online users saw it as a clear sign of her ignoring her estranged son, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham's 6-page-long list of accusations and choosing to focus on the other family members. Victoria shared a promotional post for Cruz Beckham's "First of many gigs", which will take place at London's The Courtyard Theatre on March 27, 2026.

The poster shows that the tickets for Cruz's show are sold out, and on Instagram his mother, Victoria, shared her appreciation with a "Wow!" This depiction of Victoria's support amid the highly publicised rift with eldest son, Brooklyn, raised eyebrows. Not just Cruz; Victoria also gave a shoutout to her former Spice Girls bandmate, Emma Bunton, on Instagram that same day. Victoria shared a black-and-white throwback photo with Emma to celebrate the latter's 50th birthday. The caption could be read as, "Happy birthday @emmabunton. I love you so much!!" She also posted a vintage clip from the Say You'll Be There music video, captioning it, "Happy birthday Baby Kisses xxx."

What was the reason for Brooklyn Peltz Beckham's estrangement from his parents?

On January 19, 2026 (ET), Brooklyn Peltz Beckham released an explosive six-page statement on Instagram, accusing his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, of long-term manipulation and attempts to sabotage his marriage. He stated that he has no desire to reconcile with his family. Brooklyn claimed that his parents have controlled narratives in the press his entire life to preserve "Brand Beckham". He alleged that they hurled "endless attacks" and spread "lies" about him and his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham. Mentioning why he decided to break the silence regarding the rift with his family, Brooklyn stated:

"I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private. Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed. I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled, I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life."

Brooklyn alleged that his parents have tried "endlessly to ruin" his relationship with Nicola Peltz Beckham since before their 2022 wedding. He claimed they pressured and "attempted to bribe" him into signing away the rights to his name weeks before the ceremony. Brooklyn accused his mother, Victoria, of "hijacking" his first dance, claiming she danced "inappropriately" with him in front of 500 guests when he was scheduled to dance with his wife. He also confirmed that Victoria cancelled the making of Nicola's wedding dress at the "eleventh hour", causing significant inconvenience for his wife.

Brooklyn Peltz Beckham also claimed that Victoria Beckham has repeatedly invited his ex-girlfriends to family events to make him and his wife feel uncomfortable on purpose. Brooklyn further alleged that his father, David Beckham, did not want Nicola Peltz Beckham at his 50th birthday celebration, which Brooklyn described as a "slap in the face." Brooklyn saw David's birthday as a scope for reconciliation; however, the alleged treatment he and his wife received from his parents made it a distant dream. All these incidents added to Brooklyn's grievances against his family.
