In what appears to be a carefully orchestrated avoidance, Brooklyn Beckham has repeatedly sidestepped questions about his mother Victoria's highly personal Netflix documentary, fueling speculation about ongoing family tensions.
The 25-year-old photographer and chef was captured on camera during a public appearance in Los Angeles, where he visibly clammed up when journalists broached the subject of 'Beckham' - the documentary that gave unprecedented access to his famous parents' lives.
The Awkward Exchange
Eyewitnesses described the moment as distinctly uncomfortable when Brooklyn was asked about his thoughts on the documentary that has captivated audiences worldwide. Rather than offering the glowing endorsement one might expect, the eldest Beckham child offered a terse "no comment" before quickly changing the subject.
This isn't the first time Brooklyn has remained conspicuously silent about the project. Throughout the documentary's promotional cycle, he has been notably absent from the conversation, unlike his younger siblings Romeo, Cruz and Harper, who all made appearances in the series.
Documentary Drama Behind the Scenes
Sources close to the family suggest the omission wasn't accidental. "Brooklyn has always marched to the beat of his own drum," an insider revealed. "While the documentary focused heavily on David's football career and Victoria's transition from pop star to fashion designer, Brooklyn has deliberately carved out his own path away from the family brand."
The documentary itself didn't shy away from addressing family challenges, including Victoria's struggle with loneliness during David's football career and the intense media scrutiny they faced after his infamous red card in the 1998 World Cup.
A Pattern of Distance?
Observers of the Beckham dynasty have noted that Brooklyn's relationship with the family spotlight has evolved significantly since he moved to the United States and married actress Nicola Peltz in 2022.
The lavish Palm Beach wedding itself was surrounded by rumours of tension between Victoria and Nicola's family, particularly regarding the bride's wedding dress, which was designed by Valentino rather than Victoria Beckham's fashion house.
Whether this latest documentary dodging represents genuine family friction or simply a young man establishing his independence remains unclear. What's certain is that in the carefully curated world of the Beckhams, silence often speaks louder than words.
