Victoria Beckham is said to be ‘on the floor’ in ‘pieces’ after son Brooklyn’s stunning allegations against his family. In a jaw-dropping social media post, the 26-year-old claimed does not want to reconcile with the Beckham clan.
He also alleged that his family had attempted to force him to sign the rights to his name over in the lead-up to his 2022 wedding to billionaire Nicola Peltz. He said: “Weeks before our big day, my parents repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me into signing away the rights to my name, which would have affected me, my wife, and our future children.”
The Mirror reports Brooklyn also claimed that his famous family – including mum, Lady Beckham, and dad Sir David Beckham – had attempted to “ruin” his relationship with Peltz. But while his family have remained silent, sources close to the Beckhams have told the Mirror that Victoria has been left heartbroken by their son’s actions.
“Victoria is on the floor, shocked to pieces that her son would do this,” a source said. They added: “Everyone is in shock. But Victoria is totally in pieces over this.
“But, she is worried, as is David, that this will be the end of Brand Beckham, with the claims of the falseness and pretend relationships; they are worried about what else he is going to come out with. They’re still blaming Nicola, feeling she had put him up to this, and it’s all to do with her; they’re constantly blaming Nicola.
“But as Brooklyn said, he had to do this. He’s sick of being controlled by their narrative. He sent legal letters telling them to stop talking about them and putting false stuff out there, the wedding dress, it was an awful thing for Victoria to do and made out Nicola didn’t want to wear her dress.”
Victoria had told Nicola that she would “love” to make her dress ahead of the wedding, but things soon turned sour, with Nicola being forced to find another designer at the last minute. “Victoria pulled out of making it and left Nicola in a huge panic.” Reflecting on Brooklyn claiming that Victoria “inappropriately” danced on him at his wedding, our source claimed: “Victoria, it doesn’t matter if she was drunk, she said it was a bit of fun – it was highly embarrassing.”
Our source went on to claim that there was “more to come” but Victoria is “beside herself in pieces,” while David is “angry”. “He may have just been knighted, but this could ruin everything; it accuses the family of being a fraud,” they added.
On social media, Brooklyn claimed that his family acted up for the media, as well as their online followers. He fumed: “For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family.
The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into. Recently, I have seen with my own eyes the lengths that they’ll go through to place countless lies in the media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade. But I believe the truth always comes out.”
Our source continued: “It’s bad, it’s really bad – they’re saying this is like Prince Harry 2.0 coming out, rebelling against the family, but there’s more to come. “Brooklyn has really had enough, but they’re still blaming Nicola.”
The Beckhams are reportedly now calling in damage limitation in the wake of Brooklyn’s scathing allegations. And while his family are allegedly blaming Nicola, sources close to Brooklyn have previously hit out at these claims.
They told us: “This narrative is so sexist and misogynistic, and he does not stand for his wife being vilified in this way. It’s a story as old as time: blame the woman for the man’s actions. It’s just deeply insulting,” says a source. Insiders say instead Brooklyn is “very much his own man”.
In a statement shared on his Instagram page, Brooklyn said: “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.”
But while reports have claimed that the wannabe chef had been contemplating reaching out to his family, this couldn’t be further from the case for him. He added: “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.
“For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family. The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.
“Recently, I have seen with my own eyes the lengths that they’ll go through to place countless lies in the media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade. But I believe the truth always comes out.”
The Mirror has approached Victoria’s team for comment.
