Hana Cross Cancels Beckham Tell-All Interview After Receiving 'Mean Messages'
Hana Cross, the former girlfriend of Brooklyn Beckham, has abruptly withdrawn from plans to conduct a revealing interview about her experiences with him and his famous family. The 27-year-old model was reportedly considering at least two substantial offers to discuss her time as part of the high-profile 'Brand Beckham' circle. However, she has now backed out entirely after receiving what have been described as 'mean messages' from individuals connected to Brooklyn.
A Glimpse Into The Beckham Inner Circle
Cross and Brooklyn Beckham were romantically involved for nearly a year between 2018 and 2019. During this period, she was fully immersed in the Beckham world. She occupied front-row seats at Victoria Beckham's prestigious fashion shows, often wearing designs by the former Spice Girl. The relationship saw her attending intimate family events and being warmly embraced by close family friends, including celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay and his family.
The couple split their time between a private wing of the Beckhams' Cotswolds barn and the former staff quarters at their Holland Park residence in London. Publicly, the relationship appeared harmonious. Victoria Beckham praised Hana on social media, while Cross herself posted affectionate images, including one of Brooklyn's younger sister, Harper, bringing her Nutella pancakes in bed. She even referred to his brother Cruz as 'little bro'.
Behind The Scenes: A 'Toxic' Dynamic And Family Schisms
Despite the public displays of affection, sources indicate serious underlying issues plagued both her relationship with Brooklyn and her interactions with the wider Beckham family. An insider described the dynamic as 'toxic' and revealed that Brooklyn was considered 'the black sheep of the family' even during that period.
'Hana wanted to tell her story but she had some heavy messages from the Brooklyn side warning her about being indiscreet, so she thought better of it,' the source disclosed. This decision quashes what could have been a significant revelation about long-standing family tensions.
Her potential testimony would have suggested that the well-publicised rift within the Beckham family predates the current friction between David, Victoria, and Brooklyn's wife, Nicola Peltz. Instead, it points to existing problems between the parents and Brooklyn, as well as issues they had with Hana herself, long before Nicola entered the picture.
The Relationship's Origins And Eventual Breakdown
The pair, who met through the fashion industry, were first seen together at the British Fashion Awards afterparty in December 2018. Brooklyn was a budding photographer at the time, having left a course at New York's Parsons School of Art, while Hana was an established model whose career had skyrocketed after winning a New Look competition.
Their romance included glamorous trips to Paris for Valentine's Day and attendance at the Cannes Film Festival. However, it was also marred by public arguments, including a notable bust-up after a Yungblud concert in Camden where witnesses described Brooklyn drinking heavily and storming off. The couple finally parted ways in July 2019, after adopting a Pomeranian puppy named Soho. Reports at the time suggested Victoria and David Beckham were 'delighted' by the split and had quietly encouraged it months earlier.
Life After Brooklyn And A Decision For Silence
Since the breakup, Hana Cross has dated other notable figures, including Rafferty Law and Jack Whitehall. She has also been open about struggling with anxiety in recent years. Born Hana Mahmood in Leeds, she attended private school in Huddersfield before her family moved to Gloucestershire.
Her decision to cancel the tell-all interview leaves many questions about the Beckham family dynamics unanswered. It highlights the intense pressure and private negotiations that often surround high-profile celebrity relationships, where stories are managed and silence is sometimes enforced not by legal documents like NDAs, but by social pressures and private warnings.
