In a dramatic public statement, Brooklyn Beckham has broken his years-long silence on a bitter feud with his famous family, making shocking allegations against his parents, Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham.
The Decision to Speak Out
The 26-year-old claimed he had been left with "no choice but to speak for myself" after what he described as a sustained campaign by his parents and their team to place stories in the press. Brooklyn stated he had remained quiet for "years" and made "every effort" to keep the dispute private, but could no longer stay silent.
He directly accused David and Victoria of attempting to control the narrative and "ruin" his relationship with his wife, actress Nicola Peltz Beckham. "I do not want to reconcile with my family," he declared. "I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life."
Allegations of Media Manipulation and Family Attacks
Brooklyn painted a picture of a life dominated by public image, calling out "performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships" as fixtures of his upbringing. He alleged that his parents have gone to extreme lengths to plant "countless lies" in the media to preserve their own facade, often at the expense of innocent people.
The most personal revelation involved the night before his wedding in April 2022. Brooklyn claimed that members of his family told him Nicola was 'not blood' and 'not family'. Since he began standing up for himself, he says he has faced "endless attacks" from his parents, both privately and publicly, which were then sent to the press.
Brothers Drawn Into the Feud
The fallout reportedly extended to his younger siblings, Romeo and Cruz. Brooklyn alleged that "even my brothers were sent to attack me on social media", before they ultimately blocked him without warning in the summer of 2025. This detail suggests the rift has deeply fractured the entire family unit.
Brooklyn concluded his statement with a firm belief that "the truth always comes out". His decision to go public on 19 January 2026 marks a definitive and explosive escalation in a long-running private dispute, pulling back the curtain on one of Britain's most iconic celebrity families.
