Brooklyn Beckham instructs Sir David and Victoria to ‘contact him through lawyers’ as feud deepens

Brooklyn Beckham has reportedly shared a legal letter with his parents, Sir David and Victoria, requesting that he only be contacted through his lawyers.

The 26-year-old, who is married to Nicola Peltz, has been estranged from his family for a while, with the cracks first publicly appearing when he failed to attend his dad’s 50th birthday bash.

At the end of 2025, Brooklyn blocked his family on Instagram just days after the Spice Girls star attempted to reach out to her son by liking one of his social media posts.

‘There was no intention behind it other than to show she’s thinking of him before Christmas. She had no idea it would lead to this fallout.

‘She can’t understand why Brooklyn would make the decision to block her, David, and his brothers. Cruz and Romeo are just as hurt by it and it feels like Brooklyn has truly cut them out of his life,’ a source told Metro at the time.

Over the New Year, Sir David also shared an Instagram story with a picture of him and Brooklyn with the caption ‘I love you all so much’. Victoria then reshared the post with a heart caption.

After rejecting this gesture, it has been reported by The Sun that the eldest son has now issued his parents a legal notice warning, stating that they cannot directly contact him. He has also pushed back against claims he is under the ‘control’ of his wife.

However, he does remain in contact with his grandparents – David and Sandra (Sir David’s parents) and Anthony and Jackie (Victoria’s parents).

‘Brooklyn absolutely adores them, and knows how much pain this is causing everyone. So he has reached out in his own time, but tried to keep it low-key so as not to drag them into it.

‘Brooklyn is navigating this soul-crushing family feud as best he can but it isn’t easy on anyone. Nicola remains his absolute rock,’ an insider told The Sun.

Elsewhere, a source told the Mail: ‘David was told to speak to them via Schillings. That was the only way for them to communicate.’

After Sir David and Victoria’s social media olive branch on New Year’s Eve, a source told the Mirror: ‘David and Victoria will never give up trying to secure a reconciliation between them and their son.

‘Nothing will change that, and they live in hope. He will always be their son, and they are not going to stop putting on record their feelings.’

The feud is believed to have stemmed as far back as four years, during the time of Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding, when there were reports that the bride-to-be had refused to wear one of fashion icon Victoria’s designs for the big day.

In April, Cruz was also forced to rubbish rumours that his brothers were feuding over Romeo’s girlfriend Kim, who some fans had claimed is also Brooklyn’s ex.

As for Sir David, he has experienced several huge milestones without his son, including his big 50th, being knighted and now, he’s been announced as part of the Hollywood Walk of Fame class of 2025.

His star unveiling will take place in the coming months, but questions remain over Brooklyn’s attendance, given it is just miles from where his LA-based son lives.

Metro has reached out to Brooklyn, David and Victoria’s representatives for comment.
