A source told the Sun “he wanted it gone” because “there is so much hurt and pain on his side, it would not be genuine to keep such a tribute on his body”.
Speculation about the state of Peltz Beckham’s relationship with his parents came to a head last month when he shared a lengthy statement addressing the rumours and confirmed he did not intend to reconcile with them.
“Recently, I have seen with my own eyes the lengths that they’ll go through to place countless lies in the media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade. But I believe the truth always comes out.”
He alleges his parent’s alleged dislike of his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham is at the centre of their ongoing conflict, having “endlessly” tried to ruin the relationship in the lead up to their nuptials.
Detailing the events of his 2022 wedding to the American actress, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham alleged his mother had cancelled making the bride’s wedding dress at the last minute and danced inappropriately with him at the reception.

Peltz Beckham went on to allege that “Brand Beckham” has always come first, claiming his parents value “promotion and endorsements above all else”.
“Family ‘love’ is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo opp, even if it’s at the expense of our professional obligations.”
With no end to the familial hostilities in sight, Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz Beckham have reportedly been discussing expanding their own family through adoption.
“They both know they come from a place of unimagined privilege and therefore strongly want to give back; offer a disadvantaged baby or child the best possible life. They have talked extensively about it”, a source told the Daily Mail.
