Brooklyn Beckham has found himself at the centre of a social media storm after choosing to miss his father David Beckham's prestigious knighthood ceremony at Windsor Castle, instead enjoying a sun-drenched getaway with wife Nicola Peltz.
The 25-year-old photographer raised eyebrows when he failed to appear alongside his famous family for the momentous occasion where football legend David received his well-deserved honour from the Prince of Wales.
A Carefree Display Amid Family Celebration
While his parents David and Victoria stood proudly at Windsor Castle alongside siblings Romeo, Cruz and Harper, Brooklyn appeared completely unbothered, sharing loved-up content with Nicola from their luxurious retreat.
The newlyweds posted a series of playful videos showing them dancing and laughing together, with Brooklyn planting affectionate kisses on his wife's cheek in a display that starkly contrasted with the formal royal proceedings happening back home.
Social Media Backlash Erupts
Fans and critics alike quickly took to social media to express their disappointment in Brooklyn's absence. "How could he miss such an important moment in his father's life?" wrote one concerned follower, while another commented, "Family should come first, especially for milestones like this."
The timing proved particularly awkward as Brooklyn's carefree posts appeared online almost simultaneously with images of the Beckham family's proud Windsor Castle moment circulating across news outlets.
A Pattern of Questionable Priorities?
This isn't the first time Brooklyn has faced criticism for his choices since marrying into the Peltz family. Insiders suggest the young Beckham has been increasingly prioritising his new life in America over family obligations in the UK.
Despite the controversy, Brooklyn and Nicola continue to project an image of marital bliss, frequently sharing intimate moments from their travels and emphasising their strong bond since tying the knot in their spectacular 2022 Palm Beach wedding.
The absence has left many wondering about the dynamics within the famously close-knit Beckham family and whether Brooklyn's transatlantic lifestyle is creating unexpected rifts during important family milestones.
