David and Victoria Beckham’s perspective has reportedly come to light following recent claims that their eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, served them with legal papers amid an ongoing family rift. According to sources, the famous couple had made multiple attempts to reconcile with Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, before lawyers became involved.
The former Spice Girls star and ex-Real Madrid footballer are said to have repeatedly reached out to Brooklyn and Nicola, urging them to meet privately and resolve their differences. “David and Victoria have repeatedly asked Brooklyn and Nicola to meet and talk in order to move forward,” a source revealed, suggesting the couple were keen to heal the strained relationship without escalation.
Brooklyn, who has reportedly been at odds with his parents since tensions surrounding Nicola Peltz’s wedding dress during their 2022 nuptials, allegedly sent a legal notice instructing David and Victoria to communicate with him only through lawyers. The “desist” letter also reportedly warned the Beckhams against tagging Brooklyn on social media, according to The Sun.
The family tension intensified last month when Victoria Beckham’s “like” on Brooklyn’s roast chicken video on Instagram was said to have triggered him blocking both parents on the platform. At the time, Brooklyn’s younger brother Cruz Beckham clarified the situation, stating that David and Victoria “woke up blocked,” along with him, dismissing earlier speculation that the parents had unfollowed their son.
Despite the reported fallout, sources close to the family insist David Beckham remains deeply devoted to his children. A source told People that “David loves his kids. They are his everything,” adding that Brooklyn and Nicola were invited to David’s knighting ceremony and subsequent celebrations in November.
Insiders maintain that the Beckhams have always included Brooklyn and Nicola in all family events, public and private. The only widely cited cause of the rift remains the unresolved wedding dress controversy, after Victoria was unable to prioritize designing a gown for her daughter-in-law despite initially agreeing to do so.
