Brooklyn Beckham's latest Instagram post pours more fuel onto family fire
Brooklyn Beckham has been active on social media this Mother's Day.
The 27-year-old, who lives in the US with his wife Nicola Peltz, has fallen out with his family following a bombshell statement at the start of the year.
He accused his parents Victoria and David of attempting to hijack his relationship, ruining his wedding and pressuring him to sign his name away.
Taking to Instagram today (15 March), Brooklyn wished Nicola's mum Claudia Heffner Peltz a happy 71st birthday, with no sign of a Mother's Day message to Victoria at the time of writing.

"Happy birthday to the best mother-in-law. Love u so much and hope u had the most amazing day," he penned alongside a picture with Nicola and Claudia.
Nicola, 31, also wished her mum on her big day, writing: "Happy Birthday to my mom! The pure fact that i get to call you mom makes me truly, the luckiest ever.
"I'm so happy I got to spend your special day with you. I love celebrating you - your light is so bright you make everything better in this world.
"I love you more than you will ever understand. I hope all your dreams and wishes come true!"
David, meanwhile, shared a tribute to his wife with a black and white photo of Victoria while pregnant.
The now 51-year-old was standing on a beach in a strappy dress with sunglasses.
“Happy Mother’s Day to the most amazing mummy," David, 51, wrote.
“You are an inspiration in all the ways a mum should be to our four amazing children.
“We love you so much and I’m so thankful for the family we have created.
“Have a special Mother’s Day because if there’s one person that deserves it it’s you. I love you @victoriabeckham.”
Amid the public feud, Brooklyn's famous parents sent a message to their eldest son on his 27th Birthday.
"27 Today. Happy Birthday Bust. We love you," David penned earlier this month.
Victoria added: "Happy birthday Brooklyn, we love you so much," with a snap of just her and her son as a baby: "Happy 27th birthday Brooklyn, I love you so much."
Brooklyn's length statement alleged that Victoria danced 'inappropriately on me' in front of his wedding guests, adding that he had never felt more 'uncomfortable or humiliated' in his life.
He also alleged his wife had been 'disrespected' by his family and was not invited to his father’s 50th birthday party.
Full timeline of the Beckham family feud
April 2022: Brooklyn and Nicola tie the knot
On 9 April 2022, Brooklyn and Nicola got married in a lavish ceremony in front of 500 guests at her family's estate in Palm Beach, Florida, two years after getting engaged.
Aug 2022: The first reports of a feud between Nicola and Victoria Beckham
Just months after the wedding, media sources were starting to report on a 'full-on cold war' between Nicola and her new mum-in-law.
According to Page Six, 'the build-up to the wedding was horrendous' and they 'can’t stand each other and don’t talk'.
Reports also claimed much of the feud came from Nicola's decision to wear a Valentino wedding dress instead of a piece designed by Victoria's fashion house, but they appeared to quash these rumours.

In March 2023, the Beckhams seemed to be happier than ever and were posing for photos at Victoria's Paris fashion show.
April 2025: The family rift resurfaces
Two years on, it was reported that Brooklyn and Nicola had snubbed David's 50th birthday party at Cipriani Downtown Miami.
And then, just days later, TMZ claimed that Brooklyn and brother Romeo weren't speaking due to a fallout over Romeo's girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, who had a 'romantic connection' with Brooklyn 'several years ago'.
Cruz later insisted that Brooklyn and Kim had never actually dated, and in May of 2025, Brooklyn and Nicola were nowhere to be seen as the birthday celebrations for David continued.

August 2025: David and Victoria miss vow renewals
The following month, David and Victoria are reported not to have attended the Peltz-Beckham vow renewals.
And by December that year, it was reported that Brooklyn no longer followed his parents, and they no longer followed him, and the youngest brother was quick to set the record straight.

Cruz wrote on his Instagram Stories about the claims that he and his family had unfollowed Brooklyn: "NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son … Let's get the facts right. They woke up blocked … as did I."
Jan 2026: Brooklyn takes legal action
In January 2026, it was claimed that Brooklyn sent a legal letter to his parents, insisting they only contact him via his lawyer; a rule which Victoria is believed to have broken when she 'liked' an Instagram post he made about a roast chicken.
