Brooklyn Beckham's Halloween Cooking Sparks Online Debate, Contrasts with Father David's Feast
Brooklyn Beckham's unconventional Halloween culinary creation draws criticism online, while his father David prepares an elaborate family meal.
Brooklyn Beckham shared a glimpse of his Halloween cooking on social media, featuring a chicken cooked inside a hollowed-out pumpkin and served with a thick gravy. The eldest son of Victoria and David Beckham acknowledged the often-critical reactions his cooking videos receive, captioning the post "Haters coming in 3. 2. 1."
Viewers responded with confusion and criticism, with comments focusing on the gravy's consistency, described by one user as "brown wallpaper paste," and the lack of seasoning on the chicken. Another commenter noted the contrast with David Beckham's own Halloween culinary efforts.
While Brooklyn celebrated Halloween at his Los Angeles home with his wife Nicola Peltz, David Beckham was at the family's countryside retreat with wife Victoria and their youngest child, Harper. Victoria shared images of their Halloween decorations and David's elaborate food preparations. David baked ghoulish cakes and creepy vegetable-shaped snacks from their garden, served with dips. He also presented a Halloween-themed spaghetti and meatballs dish, which he humorously presented as his "pièce de résistance."
Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz celebrated their seven-year anniversary on Thursday with matching social media tributes. Brooklyn posted a series of images, including one of himself kissing Peltz and another of flowers and a love letter. He wrote a heartfelt message to his wife, stating she is his "whole world" and "best friend."
However, some followers perceived these posts as "over performative," leading Brooklyn to share a subsequent post defending his admiration for Peltz. He shared a photo of her looking shocked and captioned it, "Yeah I am obsessed with my wife. Bring on the comments, I don't care. She's perfect xx."
Peltz also posted her own anniversary tribute, expressing her love and gratitude for their seven years together.
The couple first met at Coachella in 2017 and reconnected at a Halloween party hosted by Leonardo DiCaprio in 2019, leading to their romantic relationship.
