Context: A Rift Years in the Making
Rumblings began in 2022 when Nicola wore Valentino – not Victoria Beckham – on her wedding day, a move she later insisted was innocent. The couple also missed Victoria’s Paris Fashion Week show and Mother’s Day 2025 social posts.Fox NewsHELLO!
Could They Reconcile?
Insiders maintain “the relationship is definitely not beyond repair.” The Beckhams have weathered PR storms before, and observers note that Brooklyn’s comment about sharing a love of cars with his dad surfaced hours after reunion rumors hit the tabloids. With Father’s Day (16 June 2025) approaching, the next public milestone may test whether bridges can be rebuilt.
Bottom Line
At press time, neither Brooklyn nor his parents have formally confirmed an estrangement, but multiple reputable outlets agree contact is minimal. Until one of the principals speaks on record – or appears together – the Beckham family feud remains speculation, albeit with plenty of smoke.
