Cruz Beckham shares unexpected post about brother Brooklyn following family feud

Cruz Beckham has shared a throwback photo of himself and his older brother Brooklyn, amid the ongoing family feud.

In January, Brooklyn spoke out against his family, making some bombshell claims via his Instagram story, in which he claimed his parents had tried to 'ruin' his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz. He also claimed his parents had always 'controlled' his life, and how 'Brand Beckham' comes first before anything else.

David and Victoria chose to remain silent - although Brooklyn's younger brother Cruz broke his silence just a month before Brooklyn's bombshell claims, saying reports that he, and his parents had unfollowed Brooklyn were untrue. The 21-year-old claimed he 'woke up blocked' from his brother, as did his mother and father.

Now, however, Cruz, has shared a photo of himself, Brooklyn, 27, and Romeo, 23, when they were on holiday as children, to his Instagram page.

The post came over the weekend, and was hidden in between a number of summer snaps, including some with his girlfriend, Jackie Apostel, 30.

As of the time of writing, the brothers still do not follow each other.

Cruz isn't the only family member to have 'reached' out to Brooklyn via social media after his bombshell claims.

In fact, on March 4 of this year, two months after the post, his father David sent shared a post to celebrate his birthday.

"27 Today. Happy Birthday Bust. We love you," David captioned an old photo of Brooklyn as a child. He tagged his wife, Victoria, although Brooklyn could not be tagged due to the fact he blocked his father.

As expected, Brooklyn did not publicly respond to the post.

He also posted a photo of his whole family, including Brooklyn, on father's day in June.

He captioned the wholesome post: "Being a dad is my most important job... I love you all & thank you mummy @victoriabeckham for giving me our beautiful family.

"Happy Father's Day to all the dads around the world."

Just days before Cruz's Instagram post, many believed he was 'taking a dig' at his brother's cooking career, as he simply filmed himself cracking an egg in a pan.

“The shell is the best part [shrug emoji]," he captioned the video, which saw him drop a bit in the pan, before taking it out.

Cruz's song Wear & Tear was heard playing in the background, with the lyrics: “I wanna wear you down”.

Despite chances it was just an innocent video, many in the comments didn't believe so, as one penned: “It took me a minute, but this has to be a dig. The cooking and the song lyrics.”

Brooklyn has also been accused of 'making digs' towards his family on social media, most recently during a World Cup advert for DoorDash.

During the commercial, Brooklyn says to the camera: "You’re probably wondering why I’m watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 from home."

Laughing, he added: "It’s a long story."

Aug 2022: The first reports of a feud between Nicola and Victoria Beckham

Just months after the wedding, media sources were starting to report on a 'full-on cold war' between Nicola and her new mum-in-law.

According to Page Six, 'the build-up to the wedding was horrendous' and they 'can’t stand each other and don’t talk'.

Reports also claimed much of the feud came from Nicola's decision to wear a Valentino wedding dress instead of a piece designed by Victoria's fashion house, but they appeared to quash these rumours.

April 2025: The family rift resurfaces

Two years on, it was reported that Brooklyn and Nicola had snubbed David's 50th birthday party at Cipriani Downtown Miami.

And then, just days later, TMZ claimed that Brooklyn and brother Romeo weren't speaking due to a fallout over Romeo's girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, who had a 'romantic connection' with Brooklyn 'several years ago'.

Cruz later insisted that Brooklyn and Kim had never actually dated, and in May of 2025, Brooklyn and Nicola were nowhere to be seen as the birthday celebrations for David continued.

David shared a post to celebrate Brooklyn’s birthday, writing: "27 Today. Happy Birthday Bust. We love you."
