Brooklyn Beckham has publicly acknowledged sister Harper’s birthday in what appears to be an olive branch amid ongoing tensions within the Beckham family.
The aspiring chef shared a throwback photo on Instagram Stories of himself smiling alongside his actresss wife Nicola Peltz and younger sibling to mark her turning 14.
“Happy birthday Harper, we love u x,” he wrote across the image, tagging Peltz in the post.
Victoria Beckham earlier shared her own sweet birthday message to Harper.
The former Spice Girl-turned-fashion designer, 51, took to Instagram to post a string of photos spanning Harper’s childhood, calling her “my world” in an emotional tribute.
“Happy birthday to my world!! You are my everything and I’m so proud of the strong, confident, kind and talented young lady you are becoming,” Victoria wrote.
“You’re my best friend and I’m so lucky I get to be your mummy. We love you so so much!! Enjoy your special day!! Kisses @davidbeckham xxx.”
Shortly after Brooklyn’s post, his dad David also shared a tribute to the teenage online, writing: “Happy Birthday to Daddy’s Pretty Lady.
“To the most special precious young lady who is kind and beautiful inside and out, thank you for making each day brighter for us all. We love you Harpie — have the best day ever. Love, Daddy.”
The retired England footballer punctuated his post with a number of pink heart emojis and also tagged Victoria along with the hashtag #HarperSeven.
While neither side has publicly confirmed a rift, rumours first emerged following Brooklyn and Peltz’s extravagant £3 million wedding in Palm Beach in 2022, with reports suggesting that Victoria felt sidelined during the planning.
Though there was a brief show of unity at Victoria’s Paris Fashion Week show last year, the relationship between the families appears to have worsened.
Now living in Los Angeles, Brooklyn and Peltz frequently share affectionate posts from their home but have had little public engagement with the Beckham family in recent months, including failing to acknowledge important milestones online such as Mother’s Day, David’s 50th birthday and his getting a knighthood.
Things were said to have got so bad that Brooklyn reportedly cut contact entirely with his parents and siblings, which also includes brothers Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20.
He did however wish paternal grandmother Sandra happy birthday via Instagram on 26 June,
