INSTAGRAM WAR: BROOKLYN AND NICOLA CUT OFF BECKHAM BROTHERS
The Beckham family feud has officially moved from cold war to digital warfare. In a shocking escalation that confirms the rift is widening—not healing—Brooklyn Beckham and his billionaire wife, Nicola Peltz, have unfollowed his two younger brothers, Romeo and Cruz, on Instagram. Nicola has followed suit, completing the brutal, two-sided digital divorce from her husband’s siblings.
The move blindsided fans, coming just days after Brooklyn appeared to offer a fragile “olive branch” by posting a sweet birthday tribute to his sister, Harper, who turned . Critics are now aggressively calling the Harper birthday post a calculated PR stunt, designed to look like Brooklyn was ending the feud, only to immediately sever ties with his brothers behind the scenes.
Tensions are at an absolute breaking point. While Brooklyn and Nicola still follow patriarch David and matriarch Victoria Beckham, the sudden unfollowing of Romeo and Cruz—the two most publicly supportive of their parents—is a devastating signal that Brooklyn is definitively choosing the Peltz side.
THE ROMEO AND CRUZ REVENGE PLOT
The unfollowing is widely seen as Brooklyn and Nicola hitting back at the Beckham brothers, who have made their loyalty to David and Victoria painfully clear. Younger brother Cruz, , has been sending “pointed digs” on social media, while Romeo, , previously issued a thinly veiled statement about “appreciating people that love you” and how “life was too short” to not tell people you care.
This escalating digital warfare is compounded by the alleged friction between Brooklyn and Romeo tied to Romeo’s ex-girlfriend, Kim Turnbull. Kim had to issue a public, frantic statement denying rumors that she was ever romantically involved with Brooklyn, insisting their relationship never went “further than a school friendship at age .” The fact that Nicola allegedly felt “uncomfortable” around Kim was another sign that the Peltz camp was demanding total loyalty.
Brooklyn is clearly being controlled. He snubs his dad’s th, but makes a public post for Harper, then IMMEDIATELY unfollows his brothers. It’s manipulation and Nicola is pulling the strings.
THE BILLIONAIRE BRIDE’S POWER GRAB
The drama surrounding the Beckham family feud is inextricably linked to Nicola Peltz and her billionaire father, Nelson Peltz. While Brooklyn was actively snubbing his own father’s milestone th birthday, he and Nicola were happily attending Nelson’s birthday celebrations, posting gushing photos of the event.
Nicola has been relentlessly flaunting her own family ties—and wealth—on social media, sharing admiration for her father and brothers while maintaining public distance from the Beckhams. The most bizarre move came when she sported a replica pair of the iconic football shorts David wore for his England debut on her family’s superyacht—a move many saw as a tacky, aggressive nod to her father-in-law, designed solely to create headlines.
Sources close to the Beckham parents claim Posh and Becks are furious and believe that Nicola “controls Brooklyn.” The unfollowing is the strongest proof yet that Brooklyn is completely isolating himself at his wife’s demand.
THE HARPER SCANDAL: SNUBBING THE INNOCENT
The emotional core of this feud lies with -year-old Harper. David and Victoria were desperately worried Brooklyn wouldn’t even acknowledge her birthday publicly or privately, as he has developed a “track record for ignoring family birthdays now,” including his father’s th and his mother’s father’s birthday.
Sources revealed that the parents had “no communication” with Brooklyn and had no idea if he would even reach out to his sister, who has “idolized” him since she was a little girl. One source tragically noted, “It would be devastating for Harper not to hear from him. She hasn’t done anything and she’s only -years-old, she is the innocent party here.”
The birthday post Brooklyn did make was a clear attempt to save face and avoid being completely cut off from his sister, whom he used to be “inseparable” from. But the subsequent, immediate unfollowing of his brothers confirms that the post was a temporary shield, not a sign of true reconciliation.
DAVID’S ULTIMATE FURY: THE KNIGHTHOOD SNUB
The deepest cut, however, came last month when Brooklyn reportedly learned of his father David’s knighthood in the media, alongside the rest of the world. Sources close to the family believe this lack of communication—and Brooklyn’s failure to call his parents—is the most devastating blow in the feud.
The entire situation has become a tragic cycle of snubs: Brooklyn ignored his father’s th, his mother’s birthday, his mother’s father’s birthday, and he and Nicola failed to visit Harper when they were filming an advert just a mile from the family home in London in May. Victoria was reportedly “devastated” by the lack of contact.
IS BROOKLYN LOST FOREVER?
Brooklyn’s latest move—aggressively cutting off Romeo and Cruz—is the strongest evidence yet that the eldest Beckham son is completely isolated and under the command of the Peltz empire. Victoria and David “very much blame Nicola for all of this,” and the unfollowing will only cement their belief that she is controlling their son.
The question is: Is there any line left that Brooklyn won’t cross? Has he completely sacrificed his family legacy for his new life of billionaire wealth and chaotic public drama? Or is this just the temporary tantrum of a “grown man” who will eventually “see sense” and attempt a true reconciliation? The digital dust has settled, but the emotional chaos is just beginning.
The entire world is waiting to see who is unfollowed next.
