Brooklyn Beckham will spend Christmas with his wife Nicola Peltz and her parents amid his ongoing family feud – despite a recent olive branch offered by his father David and brother Cruz.
Daily Mail can reveal the Beckhams’ estranged eldest son has snubbed his family’s attempts at reconciliation in the run up to the festive period, with actress Nicola’s billionaire parents Nelson and Claudia said to be ‘excited’ to have him.
A source said: ‘Brooklyn and Nicola decided they would be spending this Christmas with her family. Her parents are really excited to have them.’
Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, arrived in Miami, Florida earlier this week, with the hot sauce owner posing for a picture with her brother Bradley in the back garden of the incredible Palm Beach mansion.
His decision to spend Christmas with his in-laws will come as a blow to his parents David, 50, and Victoria, 51, who are said to be feeling his absence harder than ever as the big day looms.
In recent weeks, David has appeared to offer a public olive branch to his son, in an apparent bid to put an end to their very public family feud.

The former footballer had shared a throwback picture of himself with Brooklyn and his younger brothers Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 20.
Cruz also made sure his brother knew he was thinking of him by sharing a sweet snap of the pair with brother Romeo on the beach in Brazil.
Brooklyn was seen wrapping his arm around his youngest brother Cruz as they posed on the beach.
Relations between Brooklyn, Nicola and the Beckham clan unraveled completely when they did not attend any of David’s 50th birthday celebrations in May. Brooklyn also failed to acknowledge his father’s knighthood in November.
Last week, Daily Mail revealed how Brooklyn’s nans are devastated they won’t be seeing their grandson this Christmas.
Victoria had shared a festive picture from her parents Jackie and Tony Adams’ house as they placed twelve stockings in a row on their fireplace, one for each grandchild. In pride of place was one reserved for Brooklyn.
The family feud has taken a particularly acute toll on Jackie, as well as David’s mother Sandra.
Some argue that hanging up Brooklyn’s stocking, regardless of the feud, is a sign of hope on Jackie’s part that – somehow, despite everything – Christmas might finally persuade her grandson to put aside his grudges and step on a plane to rejoin the family.

‘Brooklyn loved his nan, both of them, and he couldn’t do enough for them before this awful row took hold,’ said one insider.
‘He and his grandparents, who haven’t done anything wrong, were extraordinarily close,’ the source added.
‘Brooklyn always loved being around his family at Christmas, but that has all changed. The way things are at the moment means his family won’t see him.
‘It has hit them hard. Everyone misses Brooklyn, they wish he’d come back into their arms.’
Friends of the Beckhams say Jackie and Sandra are ‘extremely sad’ about the situation.
The source added: ‘They’re not getting any younger and the cold truth of it all is that nobody knows when they will see Brooklyn next. It’s Jackie and Sandra who everyone feels so sorry for.’
David and Victoria will spend some of the festive period in the £60million home they recently bought on Miami’s waterfront.
Earlier this month David appeared to reach out to Brooklyn over social media as he shared a throwback picture with his sons, in a possible olive branch before Christmas

It was where they were joined last year by Brooklyn and Nicola, and photographs of their Christmas celebrations show everyone having what appeared to be a lovely time.
Victoria is believed to be working hard to put on a brave face and stay strong for her husband and teenage daughter Harper, 14.
A source said: ‘It’s been a year since they last all saw each other and it’s something she will never come to terms with. But she won’t let it get her down over the festive period as she needs to be strong, especially for Harper, as well as her parents and David’s parents.’
During one of Brooklyn’s recent cookery videos fans raced to advise him to reach out to his family before it was too late, urging: ‘Go and see your parents, you will regret it later in life.’
