Things are looking progressively worse for the Beckham family when it comes to the alleged fallout between Brooklyn and his parents.

There have long been reports that the eldest of the Beckham children has become estranged from his mom and dad, a theory that's been pedalled by Brooklyn's notable absence from big family events over the last couple of years.

2025 marked his dad David's 50th birthday, and the retired footballer also received a knighthood — but Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 31, were nowhere to be seen when it came to any celebrations.

The apparent feud between Victoria, David, and Brooklyn is rumored to have started back in 2022 when Peltz didn't wear a Victoria Beckham dress for her lavish nuptials to the celebrity pair's son.

It's even gotten to a point where Brooklyn has reportedly blocked his parents and siblings on Instagram. There were reports that Victoria and David were the ones to do this, but their son, Cruz, 20, denied this.

Now it has been reported that Brooklyn blocked his parents after his mom seemingly breached a legal letter he'd sent to Victoria and David. The apparent breach was when Victoria liked a video of Brooklyn cooking roast chicken on Instagram.

The letter, believed to have been sent sometime last year, requested that his parents only reach out to Brooklyn via his lawyer.

A source told The Sun: "The reality is that he issued them with a letter at the end of last summer, asking for any correspondence to go via lawyers only, and wanted to try and make amends privately, not publicly.

"He felt his parents continued to ignore his wishes and kept mentioning him online instead of reaching out privately."

They went on to claim that Victoria and David have 'tried to let their beloved eldest son know the door is always open'.

It's unclear if one of David's latest posts was a breach of the reported legal letter.

After everyone pointed out that the dad-of-four didn't share any snaps of his eldest son in his 2025 round-up, the ex-Manchester United star shared a photo of Brooklyn on his Instagram Story.

He shared a black and white photo of himself and Brooklyn from when he was a child, writing 'I love you all so much' in reference to his family.

LADbible Group has approached reps for the Beckhams for comment.
