Cruz Beckham has said his brother Brooklyn blocked his whole family on Instagram – as he blasted reports that his parents David and Victoria had unfollowed their eldest son. It had been claimed that they unfollowed the 26-year-old and his wife Nicola Peltz in response to being unfollowed themselves.
The 20-year-old shared an online news story making the claim and posted: “NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son. Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked… as did I.”
It is the latest bizarre twist in an increasingly public family feud between the former England footballer Sir David, 50, and fashion designer Victoria, 51, and the US-based Brooklyn and his actress and heiress wife. Nicola, 30, also does not follow David and Victoria, and they don’t appear on her list of followers either.

It is now thought that Brooklyn will not join his parents and younger brothers Romeo and Cruz or sister Harper at their £10million Cotswolds home over Christmas, after efforts to extend an olive branch to the pair came to nothing. Indeed, the pair are already in Miami with her family ahead of the big day.
A source claimed to the Mail: “‘It appears that Brooklyn has blocked them to show them that’s it, this is final. It is very clear that this is a sign of his complete estrangement from his family.”
The latest post from Cruz follows what appears to be months of quiet feuding, with Brooklyn missing his dad’s knighthood and massive 50th birthday party in May – an event he would normally have been one of the first names on the guest list for. Brooklyn also failed to mention his father publicly on Father’s Day.
However, rumours all was not well date as far back as 2022, to the run-in to Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding. Tensions reportedly when Nicola chose a Valentino gown over a design by her mother-in-law, Victoria Beckham, though both denied any kind of falling out.
Cruz’s post is not the only time Brooklyn’s younger sibling Cruz had jumped to his parents defence nor aimed a dig at brother, once declaring cryptically that the “truth would unfold”.
Brooklyn’s family appeared to be offering olive branches recently, apparently in hopes for a reconciliation, with his Christmas stocking seen hanging on the wall alongside those of his brothers and sisters.
