Brooklyn Beckham has hit back at haters who have taken issue with his many cooking videos.
The eldest child of David and Victoria Beckham began uploading cooking tutorials to his social media pages in late 2021.
He has since cooked items such as grilled cheese, steak and potatoes, and pasta dish Fettuccine Alfredo, posting tutorials to his 16.2 million followers.
The budding chef has also teamed up with brands such as Chosen Foods and Typhur on his page.
Many of his videos have come under fire - with people mocking the 24-year-old for everything from the way he cooks, to the ingredients he uses and even his presenting skills.
However, in a new interview with Insider, Beckham said he was used to hate online - adding that cooking made him happy and he wasn’t planning on stopping any time soon.
“To be honest, I’m used to the hate,” Beckham said. “It doesn’t really bother me. Cooking makes me happy. I have more important things to worry about than people saying a little bit of rubbish about me.”
Previously, his grilled cheese tutorial was one of the more controversial posts.
In the commenters, one critic wrote: “Blowtorching pieces of toast. So unnecessary,” A second added: “God this is utterly cringe and boring.” “Please tell me this is satire,” wrote another.
Commenting on the fact the star appeared to have a hole in his trousers, a fourth added: “The hole is distracting me," while a fifth commented: “Can you not afford a pair of trousers without holes? This is embarrassing and ridiculous.”
He was also called out by fans for one very basic salad and plain spaghetti tutorial, and attracted criticism for reportedly hiring a film crew for $100,000 to film him making a sandwich, as well as requiring assistance with frying a hash brown.
Earlier this year, the star discussed where his love of food had come from and shared some of the places he and wife Nicola Peltz’s like to eat in LA.
The wannabe chef started the video by sharing his memories of dining with his famous parents.
He said: “I grew up in London. I always used to go to the pub, and we used to go after my dad played football.
“I didn’t drink, because I was too young, but I used to have the pie and mash and fish and chips in the newspaper with vinegar.”
However, his palate has broadened over the years: “My and my wife, we are obsessed, our favourite food is Japanese – they way the Japanese treat food, they are so careful and so precise,” he said.
“I love cooking because it’s one of the few things that takes my mind off anything that’s happening,’ he continued.
“One of the many things I like about chefs is they are so artistic, they are so hardworking, and it’s always every day, every minute of every hour trying to master their craft.”
It comes following the success of the Netflix documentary Beckham - about his father’s early life and rise to fame as one of the country’s best-loved footballers.
