Cruz Beckham posts about 'family affair' amid Beckham 'feud'

Cruz Beckham has shared a post on his story making reference to a “family affair” amid the rumoured Beckham family feud, the day before David Beckham is scheduled to receive his royal honours.

The youngest Beckham son, aged 20, posted two screenshots from his Spotify app yesterday, including one of a song entitled “Family Affair”... which could mean nothing!

His post comes as speculation grows over whether Brooklyn Beckham, who is rumoured to have gone “no contact” with the rest of his family, will be present in support of David Beckham’s honours from King Charles III.

Brooklyn Beckham has been absent from a series of family events over the past few months, fuelling suspicion of a feud. Most notably, he missed all of his father’s 50th birthday celebrations across April and May (there were multiple).

Cruz Beckham is no stranger to a cryptic Instagram post. He sparked headlines months ago when he and brother Romeo Beckham appeared to mock comments made by Nicola Peltz, Brooklyn Beckham’s wife, under an Instagram post by Mia Regan, Romeo’s ex-girlfriend.

Under the picture posted by Regan, Peltz commented “So beautiful Mia” with the sparkle and heart emoji. Regan and Beckham broke up last year after having dated for five years. Not long after this, Cruz Beckham commented on a post of Romeo Beckham saying “So beautiful Romeo”, while Romeo responded with laughing emojis.

Further speculation around Cruz’s Instagram activity came earlier this week, after he posted a throwback picture of his siblings (Brooklyn included) when they were much younger. The image shows Victoria holding Harper, the youngest Beckham child, whilst her three sons gathered around her on the sofa.

Some have interpreted the gesture as an olive branch to Brooklyn ahead of David Beckham’s royal honours. There are still question marks over whether Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz will fly over from Los Angeles to support David on his big day, and their absence will undoubtedly be taken as further proof of the feud.

The comments of Brooklyn Beckham’s recent Instagram posts have been flooded with fans begging him to reconcile with his family. “Partners can come and go. Your parents and children don’t. They’re life and always there for you,” one comment reads. Another commenter adds: “For goodness sake! Work this out with your parents!”

Under another post, which shows Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz arm in arm at an event, a commenter says: “She is not worth it. No one that separates you from your family is worth it. You will learn it soon, unfortunately.”
