Brooklyn Beckham celebrates father-in-law’s birthday after ‘asking parents to leave him alone’
Brooklyn Beckham rang in his father-in-law Nelson Peltz’s birthday wearing matching cowboy hats, amid an ongoing rift with his own parents.
It comes after the 27-year-old did not publicly acknowledge his parents, Victoria Beckham and Sir David Beckham’s Father’s Day posts to Instagram, which included pictures of him.
But he has now been pictured at a Florida bash with his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham, for her billionaire father’s 84th birthday on Wednesday.
The actress, 31, posted a carousel of pictures on her Instagram page, which included the Peltz family enjoying a meal together in coordinated straw hats.
One photo showed Nelson with Nicola and Brooklyn crouching next to him in sunglasses, while another group photo included the businessman with five of his sons, as well as the married couple.
In the caption to the post, Nicola wrote: ‘Happy birthday Dad! I love celebrating you! I feel truly blessed to have grown up watching you be such an incredible role model in every way possible.’
She went on to describe him as ‘the best father I could ever dream of,’ adding: ‘You love us all unconditionally, encourage us that our dreams are never too big to chase and to always always be a good human before all else.’
It comes after Brooklyn was reported to be ‘fuming’ with his parents for posting him on their social media for Father’s Day over the weekend.
The former footballer shared a vintage snap including his estranged son, writing: ‘Being a dad is my most important job… I love you all & thank you mummy for giving me our beautiful family.’
But the aspiring chef is said to have asked his parents ‘to leave him alone’, even as they continue to post him, an insider told The Sun.
‘It just brings the whole thing up all over again. He wishes they’d leave it and leave him alone,’ they told the publication.
Brooklyn is understood to have seen the posts through media reports and via people close to him, as he has reportedly blocked his family on Instagram.
Unlike his siblings, Brooklyn did not send any good wishes his father’s way, having said in an explosive statement earlier this year that he has no plans to mend fences with his parents amid a deep rift in relations.
