Nicola Peltz shared photos from a recent Fourth of July celebration, where she was seen with husband Brooklyn Beckham and friends, including Shaquille O'Neal's son, Shaqir O'Neal, and Dominic J West. The social media posts emerged on the same day Brooklyn's parents, Victoria and David Beckham, celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary. The celebration featured USA-themed decorations and inflatables, with Brooklyn Beckham sporting a cowboy hat and a red and white T-shirt. Bottles of Brooklyn's hot sauce, Cloud 23, were also visible on the food table.
Meanwhile, Victoria Beckham marked her 27th anniversary with David Beckham by posting a sweet photo and a heartfelt caption referencing their "four amazing children." David Beckham also shared a tribute to his wife, expressing pride in their family.
Despite the public tributes, reports suggest Brooklyn Beckham is unhappy with his parents' continued social media mentions. A source told The Sun that Beckham is "fuming" and has asked his parents to stop posting about him. The source indicated that these posts bring up past issues and that Beckham wishes they would "leave it and leave him alone." According to reports, Brooklyn Beckham blocked his parents on Instagram before Christmas last year and his legal team later requested that all communication be handled through representatives. In January, he reportedly declared he was no longer part of "Brand Beckham," accusing his parents of controlling him and attempting to create conflict between him and Peltz. He also allegedly found his mother's dancing with him at his wedding embarrassing.
Brooklyn Beckham was last seen with his family at Christmas 2024. By May 2025, it was evident that a rift had formed, as he did not acknowledge his parents' birthdays, including David Beckham's 50th. More recently, Beckham faced criticism for a DoorDash commercial, which some perceived as mocking his parents and profiting from their name. The advertisement featured him stating, "You're probably wondering why I'm watching the Fifa World Cup 2026 from home... It's a long story." Friends of the Beckham family reportedly described David and Victoria as "devastated and inconsolable" by this perceived jab. While Brooklyn Beckham has reportedly sought privacy, the DoorDash ad, estimated to have earned him at least $1 million, has been viewed by some as an attempt to capitalize on his family connections. "Brooklyn claims he wants peace and privacy and nothing to do with his family – now he's trying to cash in on it all," an insider told Page Six.
