Brooklyn Beckham and Holly Ramsay's friendship crumbles before her Adam Peaty wedding
Beckham-Ramsay friendship ends before Holly's wedding

The long-standing friendship between Brooklyn Beckham and Holly Ramsay is reportedly in ruins, with the chef allegedly declining an invitation to her upcoming wedding to Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty. The fallout is said to be a direct consequence of Brooklyn's ongoing and very public rift with his own family, David and Victoria Beckham.

A Friendship Forged in Childhood

The Beckham and Ramsay families have been close since the early 2000s, a bond that strengthened when both relocated to the United States to further the careers of David Beckham and Gordon Ramsay. With children of similar ages, the families grew even closer.

Brooklyn, 26, and Holly, 25, along with her twin brother Jack, became inseparable best friends, with just nine months between them. Their childhood was documented in countless photos from lavish family holidays, spanning sunny beach getaways and snowy ski trips, often aboard private jets. They were fixtures at each other's landmark birthdays, and Holly was a guest at Brooklyn's extravagant 2022 wedding to billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz.

The Cracks Begin to Show

The trouble began as Brooklyn's feud with his parents intensified earlier this year. While the Beckhams and Ramsays were photographed holidaying together on a private yacht in 2025, Brooklyn was conspicuously absent. This set the stage for the current situation surrounding Holly's nuptials.

The wedding of Holly Ramsay and Adam Peaty is scheduled for this weekend. While David and Victoria Beckham are expected to attend, their son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola will not. A source told the Daily Mail this decision has upset Holly's protective parents, Gordon and Tana Ramsay, who are very fond of Brooklyn.

"David and Victoria see Gordon and Tana almost as family. The kids all grew up together," the source said. "Brooklyn always loved his time with them all but his and Jack’s friendship isn’t really there any more which is a great shame." The source added that the Ramsays have left the door open for a reconciliation, but noted Brooklyn has grown distant from many old friends.

A Wider Family Feud Fuels the Fire

The snub is the latest chapter in a year of escalating tension within the Beckham family. Fans first grew concerned in May 2025 when Brooklyn was absent from celebrations for his father David's 50th birthday. The rift is believed to have origins in the aftermath of his own wedding to Nicola Peltz.

In August 2025, the couple renewed their vows in a lavish ceremony that notably included none of Brooklyn's family. Then, at Christmas, Brooklyn appeared to twist the knife, posting an Instagram photo with Nicola captioned "My Everything" while celebrating with her family in Miami. He has also reportedly blocked his parents on social media.

In a move widely interpreted as a dig, he recently used a clip on TikTok for his Cloud 23 sauce business featuring the Lady Gaga lyric: "Sorry, I cannot hear you, I'm kinda busy." This all unfolds as the rest of the Beckham family celebrated Christmas in the UK without him.

The collapse of this childhood friendship, once a symbol of two famous families' unity, now stands as a stark casualty of the deepening Beckham family divide.
