Victoria Beckham has reportedly decided she can no longer “keep fighting the same fight” over her strained relationship with eldest son Brooklyn, as speculation about a long-running family rift deepens.
According to The Mirror, the fashion designer has reportedly drawn a line in the sand.
Ahead of her documentary dropping on Netflix, a source told the paper: “It was very much a roller coaster of emotions because of the big thing that’s still affecting her, her fractured relationship with Brooklyn.
“But it also made her realise that she can’t keep raking over the heartbreak of this situation with him, enough is enough, now.”
Victoria’s decision comes after months of tension between Brooklyn, 26, and the Beckham family following his marriage to actor Nicola Peltz.
He has notably skipped major family milestones, including his father David Beckham’s 50th birthday and stopped following his siblings on Instagram, fuelling rumours of a deeper split.
The source said the upcoming documentary, which featured a picture of him as a baby, has helped Victoria reframe the situation.
“She knows he will, one day, come back to her, but it’s just not the right time, that’s how she’s looking at it now,’ the insider continued. ‘This project has made her realise how blessed she is to have her family around her and supporting her.”
They added: “She still hopes she and Brooklyn will sort things out, of course she does, but at the same time, she can’t keep fighting the same fight’”
Brooklyn and Nicola have faced rumours of a rift with his famous family for months, having snubbed numerous major family events and social media milestones this year.
The eldest Beckham child failed to invite any of his family to their vow renewal in New York City last month.
Last week, he addressed the feud for the first time when asked about how he deals with the chatter surrounding his family.
“There's always going to be people saying negative things but I have a very supportive wife,” he told the Daily Mail at the All-Star Celebrity Ryder Cup match.
“Me and her, we just do our thing, we just keep our heads down and work. And we're happy.”
He added that he “never” worries about what people think about his personal life.
“Everyone is always going to say rubbish. I just try and do this, play some golf with some friends. It's good fun,” he said.
Brooklyn was last pictured with his family on Boxing Day last year and does not appear to have spent time with them since.
The Standard has contacted Victoria Beckham’s rep for comment.
