Brooklyn Beckham narrowly missed coming face-to-face with his famous parents, David and Victoria Beckham by just minutes in St Tropez.
The aspiring chef, 27, has been enjoying a trip to the south of France with his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham, 31, although David and Victoria have also been spotted very close by.

Turns out his parents, who he has not seen in over a year, are also in town and they’ve narrowly missed bumping into each other in what would no doubt be an incredibly awkward turn of events.
In new pictures, David, 51, and Victoria, 52, were seen making their way to Cherry Restaurant for a meal.
Meanwhile, their eldest son was photographed browsing through Jacquemus and treating himself to an ice cream at a nearby parlour.
According to reports, the two venues are just a five-minute walk away from each other.
While they weren’t there at the same time, it all happened on the same day and with the restaurant just five minutes away from the shops, it’s a surprise they haven’t crossed paths.
Brooklyn and Nicola were joined by Sir Elton John’s husband, David Furnish, for the ice cream outing and it’s unclear if they were aware his parents were nearby.
The couple were also pictured on Sir Elton’s yacht earlier in the trip.

It’s not clear if the Beckhams were aware how close their eldest son was to them either.
But after several attempts to extend an olive branch and reconnect this year both publicly and privately, if they knew they were just minutes away, it’s possible they may have reached out.
Brooklyn made his stance on where he stands with his family clear in January when he released a blistering six-page statement that finally confirmed their ongoing feud.
The hot sauce entrepreneur branded his parents “performative” and made several scathing claims about how his mum “hijacked” his first dance with Nicola at their wedding. He continued that his parents tried to put a wedge between the young couple before they tied the knot.

Neither David or Victoria have addressed the claims made by Brooklyn publicly, although have made attempts to reach out in the months since.
Brooklyn appears to have cut off his whole family, including siblings Romeo, Cruz and Harper, and his relationship with his in-laws seems to be growing stronger.
