Romeo Beckham is spicing up his couture.
Indeed, the model turned heads with his appearance at Paris Fashion Week on Jan. 23, and his mom Victoria Beckham proved she’s a fan of his high fashion strut.
In a video posted by Vogue France, Romeo, 23, walked the runway in Willy Chavarria’s 2026/2027 Eterno presentation. His look matched the streetwear concept, as he styled his white top with a leather jacket, black sunglasses, baggy jeans and snake print boots.
With this being his first fashion show of the year, the Spice Girls alum—who shares Romeo as well as Brooklyn, 26, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, with husband David Beckham—showed her support in the comments section, writing, “Proud of you @romeobeckham.”
Further showcasing the family’s praise, Cruz echoed the sentiment and shared a gif of Matthew McConaughey saying, “That’s my brother right there.”

The Beckhams’ kind words for Romeo come just days after Brooklyn revealed where he stands with his family, admitting he and wife Nicola Peltz Beckham, 31, have been estranged from his parents in a scathing statement.
“I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private,” he wrote in a six-part post on his Instagram Stories Jan. 19. “Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed. I do not want to reconcile with my family.”
He continued, “I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
Besides alleging his parents have “controlled narratives” about their dynamic for his “entire life,” the photographer also accused them of negatively interfering in his and Nicola’s relationship, including their wedding in April 2022. (E! News previously reached out to reps for the Beckhams for comment but did not hear back.)
“Weeks before our big day, my parents repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me into signing away the rights to my name,” he stated, “which would have affected me, my wife, and our future children. They were adamant on me signing before my wedding date because then the terms of the deal would be initiated. My holdout affected the payday, and they have never treated me the same since.”

Nicola Peltz Beckham Didn’t Wear Victoria Beckham on Her Wedding Day
There’s no rule saying you have to say yes to your future mother-in-law’s signature label on your wedding day, but it was widely assumed from outside the planning circle that Nicola Peltz Beckham would wear a Victoria Beckham dress down the aisle when she and Brooklyn Beckham tied the knot in April 2022 at her family’s estate in Palm beach, Fla.
So when she didn’t, going with Valentino Couture instead… Bad blood alert!
Nicola stayed mum on the subject for months before finally saying there was no dress drama, perhaps minus the disappointment when she found out she wouldn’t be able to wear custom VB.
“I was going to and I really wanted to,” Nicola told Variety in August 2022, “and then a few months down the line, she realized that her atelier couldn’t do it, so then I had to pick another dress. She didn’t say you can’t wear it; I didn’t say I didn’t want to wear it. That’s where it started, and then they ran with that.”
Added Brooklyn, “I’ve learned they’re always going to try to write stuff like that. They’re always going to try and put people down. But everyone gets along, which is good.”
Speaking to Grazia the following month, Nicola called the Beckhams “great in-laws.”
Victoria Beckham Supports Brooklyn Beckham’s Wedding Day
Nicola Peltz Didn’t Attend Victoria Beckham’s 50th Birthday Bash
Tom Cruise and all four of Victoria’s fellow Spice Girls were at her posh 50th birthday party on April 20, 2024, but her daughter-in-law was not.
Because, Nicola soon made clear on Instagram, she was spending time with her grandmother, who died less than a month later.
In lieu of her presence at the party, Nicola wrote on Instagram, “Happy birthday to my beautiful mil @victoriabeckham i’m so sad i’m not there to celebrate you and hug you. Sending all my love from me and my naunni. I miss you all so much!” (Meanwhile, she had also shouted out Victoria on her actual April 17 birthday, captioning a photo of them together, “i love you so much and love being your dance partner forever.”
And Naunni’s passing wasn’t just devastating to Nicola. On May 16, Brooklyn paid tribute on Instagram, writing, “Can’t believe it’s been a year without you naunni x you were always so happy and always made me laugh. I miss you and will love you forever x… it makes me so sad to think of our future kids not being able to know you x you were one of a kind and we miss you everyday.”
Brooklyn Beckham Doesn’t Play Into Family Feud Narrative
Looking back at his “crazy childhood” as the son of a football star and a Spice Girl, Brooklyn told InStyle in June 2024, “I was so happy.”
And while it was admittedly “hectic,” he added, “I have the best mum and dad in the world and it was a lot of fun.”
Everyone’s Together for Christmas
While Brooklyn and Nicola spent part of the 2024 holiday with the Peltzes, no one needed a visit from the ghosts of Christmas Past or Future: Photos David Beckham, Victoria, Brooklyn and Nicola shared that December showed that all the Beckhams were together in the present.
“Being together for the holidays makes me so happy xxxx I love you all so much,” Victoria captioned her carousel of pics, tagging all her kids and her daughter-in-law.
Brooklyn Beckham, Nicola Peltz Skip David Beckham’s 50th Birthday Party
Did Brooklyn Beckham Have an Issue With Romeo Beckham’s Girlfriend?
An insider told People that it was Brooklyn who put the kibosh on attending David’s party because he didn’t want to see brother Romeo Beckham’s then-girlfriend, DJ Kim Turnbull, who had been popping up at more and more family affairs, including the March 2025 Victoria Beckham show during Paris Fashion Week, since the couple went public with their relationship in November 2024.
However, responding to an Instagram commenter who was speculating as to why Brooklyn felt so strongly about being around Kim that he skipped his dad’s party altogether, youngest brother Cruz Beckham wrote, “Brooklyn and Kim never dated.”
And E! News learned in June 2025 that Romeo and Kim have since broken up, so perhaps a brotherly reunion is in order.
Nicola Peltz Beckham Was Allegedly in Tears When Wedding Guest Marc Anthony Shouted Out Victoria Beckham
More fuel for the wedding drama fire: The newlyweds’ first dance didn’t go as expected, and it’s extremely unclear why it went down as it allegedly did.
“Brooklyn and Nicola were under the impression they were being gifted their first dance by Marc Anthony,” a source told E! News in May 2025. Instead, the singer announced, “‘Please welcome to the stage the most beautiful woman in the room—Victoria Beckham.’ Brooklyn wasn’t quite sure what to do and was put in an awkward situation.”
Moreover, the source continued, “Nicola left the room crying. She eventually came back and was able to collect herself to celebrate the rest of her wedding.”
The incident wasn’t so disastrous on the groom’s side of the family as to prevent David from being a best man at Marc’s wedding in January 2023, when he married fourth wife Nadia Ferreira. But it’s understandable if the bride had a harder time getting over it.
Brooklyn and Nicola “have made good faith efforts over the years” to have a relationship with his family, the source said, but at this time things aren’t good.
Probably apropos of nothing, though possibly not, Brooklyn called Nicola his “whole world” in a May 2025 Instagram post, writing, “I always choose you baby x you’re the most amazing person I know xx me and you forever baby.”
Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Hire a Lawyer
When the stories get pointed, the pointed-at retain legal counsel. And the May story about Nicola being brought to tears at her own wedding three years ago may have been a harbinger of more to come.
In response to reports that Brooklyn and Nicola had hired a lawyer who has worked with the oft-written-about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, a source with knowledge confirmed to E! News that the couple do have a lawyer, but not for “reputation management.”
Rather, the source said, they have hired Jenny Afi of U.K. law firm Schillings “to set the record straight, combat spread of misinformation.”
And while the solicitor’s clientele includes the Sussexes, who counted the soon-to-be-knighted David and Victoria among their wedding guests in 2018, “there is absolutely no connection to Meghan and Harry,” the insider added. “Schillings is a respected firm with a wide range of clients.”
Suggesting otherwise, the source said, ironically demonstrated “exactly why one hires legal counsel, to set the record straight and combat the spread of deliberate misinformation.”
Brooklyn Beckham Absent for David Beckham’s Career Milestones
When David was awarded a knighthood in November 2025, neither Brooklyn or Nicola publicly commented on the accolade. The couple was also noticeably absent when David’s soccer team Inter Miami CF won the MLS Cup in December 2025—with only Victoria, Romeo, Cruz and Harper at the game to celebrate the victory.

In David’s recap of 2025, the soccer star shared several photos with family and friends from throughout the year. However, not a single one included his eldest son or Brooklyn’s wife Nicola amid rumors of their family rift.
Hour later, David shared throwback snapshots of himself with each of his and Victoria’s kids, writing over a black-and-white portrait with Brooklyn, “I love you all so much.”
Brooklyn Beckham Breaks His Silence
In January 2026, Brooklyn shared a lengthy statement to Instagram detailing his estrangement with his family.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he wrote. “I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
Among the allegations in his post, Brooklyn claimed his parents “have controlled narratives in the press” about their family, that they have only cared about “Brand Beckham” and that they’ve long been trying “to ruin” his and Nicola’s relationship.
And while he said he grew up with anxiety, since distancing himself from his family he’s felt “peace and relief.”
