Melanie Brown's ex-husband Jimmy Gulzar has made fresh claims about David and Victoria Beckham, alleging the famous couple once forgot their eldest son Brooklyn's date of birth. This revelation comes as Gulzar weighs into the ongoing public feud within the Beckham family, adding fuel to an already fiery situation.
Jimmy Gulzar's Explosive Social Media Claims
In a series of social media posts on Thursday afternoon, Jimmy Gulzar, who was married to Scary Spice from 1998 to 2000, shared what he claims is a memory from years ago involving the Beckhams. The 51-year-old Dutch dancer posted to his followers about a time when David Beckham visited his home for his first tattoo.
Gulzar wrote: 'Yo David remember the fun we all had when you came to my house for your first tattoo. The birthdate of your first born, left side lower back. Only thing was, you and Vicky couldn't remember the date so Vicky had to call her mum to make sure.'
He concluded his post with a pointed question: 'So much fun, but nothing in your book or docu bout it. How come?' Representatives for both David and Victoria Beckham have been approached for comment regarding these allegations.
Background of the Beckham Family Tensions
This latest development follows Brooklyn Beckham's explosive six-page statement released on Monday, in which he declared he did not wish to reconcile with his family. The 25-year-old accused his parents of intentionally trying to ruin his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz, creating a public rift that has captured media attention.
In his lengthy statement, Brooklyn claimed: 'My family values public promotion and endorsements above all else. Brand Beckham comes first. Family "love" is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo op.'
Victoria Beckham's Unexpected Chart Success
Despite the family turmoil, public support for Victoria Beckham appears to be growing. In a surprising turn of events, the former Spice Girl achieved her first ever solo number one on iTunes on Thursday afternoon. Her 2001 single Not Such An Innocent Girl shot to the top of the charts in both the UK and Ireland.
This chart success has been driven by a viral social media campaign determined to support Victoria amid the family feud. Supporters have rallied behind the fashion designer, with one viral Instagram post stating: 'Nothing says "British Culture" like collectively deciding to send Posh to the top of the charts because her son roasted her on Insta.'
David Beckham's Response to Family Matters
While Victoria has maintained her silence since Brooklyn's statement, David Beckham faced questions about the family situation during his appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. When heckled about the feud on Tuesday, he declined to answer direct questions but later spoke about the challenges of social media for families.
In an interview on CNBC's Squawk Box, the former footballer said: 'I've always spoken about social media and the power of social media for the good and for the bad. I've tried to do the same with my children, to educate them. They make mistakes. Children are allowed to make mistakes. That's how they learn.'
Jimmy Gulzar's Previous Accusations
This is not the first time Gulzar has made claims about David Beckham. Back in October, he accused the football legend of copying his style, suggesting that David's memorable sarong outfit from the 1998 World Cup, his love of cooking, and even some tattoos were inspired by him.
Gulzar also claimed he had been approached to work as one of David's stylists before mysteriously missing out on the position. These ongoing allegations add another layer to the complex web of celebrity relationships and public disputes.
Current Status of the Family Divide
The acrimonious divide within the Beckham family has resulted in Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz snubbing significant family celebrations in recent months, including David's milestone 50th birthday and knighthood celebrations. Both Brooklyn and Nicola have since switched off comments on their separate Instagram accounts following his statement.
Meanwhile, Brooklyn's younger brothers Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 20, have been spotted in public since the statement's release. Cruz even helped promote his mother's music, using her song to soundtrack one of his Instagram Stories as part of the viral campaign supporting Victoria.
As the Beckham family drama continues to unfold in the public eye, with new allegations emerging from unexpected sources, the situation shows no signs of immediate resolution. The combination of personal family conflict, public statements, and unexpected chart success creates a complex narrative about modern celebrity life and family dynamics in the digital age.
