David Beckham doesn't include Brooklyn in 2025 photo recap amid bitter family feud

David Beckham didn’t include his son Brooklyn in a recap of his 2025, as the family feud appears to rumble on.

The former footballer, 50, looked back on 20 of his biggest moments from 2025 in an Instagram photo carousel, none of which included Brooklyn, 26.

David reflected on his 50th birthday and finally receiving a knighthood, something he says he is still “pinching [him]self” over.

He also included snaps of Brooklyn’s siblings Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20 and Harper, 13, on holiday.

While he didn’t include any photos of Brooklyn, he wrote that he was “so grateful to my incredible wife, my amazing children and my friends”, as well as his team.

There was also a black-and-white picture where he was laughing with his close friend Tom Cruise.

And another selfie of David with his dogs, cocker spaniels Fig, Sage, and Olive, as well as a Cockapoo named Simba.

David also took the time to reflect on his football team, Inter Miami, winning the MLS league - sharing snaps of the team, and his family supporting him on the pitch.

Many fans took to the comment section to ask where Brooklyn was, and share their own opinions; some praised David not including Brooklyn, while others said as parents, they shouldn’t have excluded him.

Earlier this month, Brooklyn’s brother Cruz claimed that his eldest sibling had blocked his whole family on Instagram.

Cruz rejected reports that his parents had unfollowed their son in an Instagram Story, claiming that he, David and Victoria had been blocked.

“My mum and dad would never unfollow their son... Let's get the facts right. They woke up blocked... as did I,” he posted.

Relations between the two sides unravelled when Brooklyn and his wife Nicola, 30, failed to attend any of David's 50th birthday celebrations in May, while they also didn’t acknowledge David’s knighthood in November.

This month, Brooklyn and Nicola enjoyed Christmas with Nicola’s parents Nelson and Claudia in Miami, Florida - as David and Victoria spent Christmas back in the UK.

And Nicola shared a glimpse of the celebrations, uploading a festive photo dump on Instagram.

“We wish everyone a merry Christmas and a happy new year filled with so much love, peace and happiness,” she captioned the pics.

Brooklyn and Nicola were wearing matching red Christmas pyjamas for the occasion.
