Brooklyn Beckham has drawn criticism online after sharing a photograph of a Guinness pint he apparently poured incorrectly into the wrong type of glass. The image, posted to his Instagram Stories, led to a flood of reactions from social media users, many of whom accused him of intentionally provoking Guinness enthusiasts.
Commenters expressed dismay, with some stating the pour was "badly" executed and others suggesting the entire "of Ireland wept." The traditional method of pouring Guinness involves a specific technique and a waiting period to allow the beer to settle, resulting in its characteristic creamy head.
The incident is not the first time Beckham has faced scrutiny over his Guinness pouring skills. Previously, a photo of him pouring a pint during an outing with then-girlfriend Chloe Moretz also generated negative comments online.
Beyond the beverage controversy, Beckham recently defended his wife, Nicola Peltz, against online criticism regarding her weight. Responding to a follower who commented on her appearance, Beckham stated, "Don't ever talk about my wife. She's absolutely beautiful and you should never comment on a woman's body. It's disgraceful."
In a separate instance from the Guinness post, Beckham also addressed criticism of his cooking, particularly a homemade cottage pie featured in a recent online video. He acknowledged his limitations, telling followers, "I'm obviously not a professional chef."
Peltz has reportedly lost weight for her role in the upcoming indie drama Prima, where she plays a ballerina. This dietary and training regimen was undertaken to embody her character.
Beckham and Peltz, who married in 2022, renewed their vows last year amidst reports of a feud with members of his family. Beckham's response to comments about his wife's health underscores his public support for her.
