You can read an extensive, in-depth recap of the entire feud <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/stephaniesoteriou\/brooklyn-beckham-family-feud-everything-explained\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, or the details of Brooklyn\u2019s statement <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/stephaniesoteriou\/brooklyn-beckham-explosive-statement-family-feud\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>      Brooklyn\u2019s major claims included his mom, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/tag\/victoria-beckham\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Victoria Beckham<\/a>, apparently \u201cdancing very inappropriately on\u201d him at his and Nicola\u2019s wedding, and his family \u201cconsistently\u201d disrespecting Nicola \u2014 both before and after their wedding. Brooklyn also claimed that they didn\u2019t attend his dad, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/tag\/david-beckham\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">David Beckham\u2019s<\/a>, 50th birthday party last year when David only agreed to seeing his eldest son prior to the event without Nicola. He also said that his \u201cfamily values public promotion and endorsements above all else. Brand Beckham comes first. Family \u2018love\u2019 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\u2019s at the expense of our professional obligations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      Brooklyn firmly stated that he has absolutely no intention of reconciling with his family, and added that he has been \u201ccontrolled\u201d by his famous parents for \u201cmost\u201d of his life, which resulted in him growing up with \u201coverwhelming anxiety.\u201d His little brothers, 23-year-old Romeo and 20-year-old Cruz, also caught some strays, with Brooklyn writing: \u201cMy brothers were sent to attack me on social media, before they ultimately blocked me out of nowhere this last Summer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      For what it\u2019s worth, Cruz previously claimed that he and his entire family woke up blocked by Brooklyn just before Christmas. In fact, over the last year, Cruz has become pretty loose with his social media activity when it comes to his family&#8217;s feud \u2014 for example, in April, he raised eyebrows when he appeared to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/stephaniesoteriou\/romeo-cruz-beckham-mock-nicola-peltz-family-feud\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">brazenly mock Nicola<\/a> on Instagram.<\/p>\n<p>      For reference, Romeo previously had a five-year on-again, off-again relationship with model Mia Regan, who he split from for good in February 2024. Mia posted a photo of her Pop cover story to her Instagram account on Apr. 5, 2025, and Nicola notably shared her admiration as she commented: \u201cso beautiful mia \ud83e\ude77\u2728,\u201d which Mia liked at the time.<\/p>\n<p>      Just two days later, on Apr. 7, the Beckham brothers seemingly threw shade at Nicola\u2019s comment when Romeo shared a collection of photos to his Instagram account. Undeniably mocking Nicola, Cruz commented on the post: \u201cSo beautiful Romeo \u2728\ud83e\ude77,\u201d with Romeo replying: \u201c\ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      The following month, Cruz took it upon himself to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/stephaniesoteriou\/cruz-beckham-pointed-statement-brooklyn-instagram-post\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">defend his parents\u2019 honor<\/a> after Brooklyn posted a video of himself and Nicola with the caption: \u201cMy whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you\u2019re the most amazing person i know xx me and you forever baby\u2764\ufe0f\u2764\ufe0f,\u201d which many interpreted to be a swipe at his parents.<\/p>\n<p>      And Cruz seemingly had the same interpretation, because soon after Brooklyn posted, he shared a telling statement of his own to his Instagram story alongside a family photo from when everybody got together to celebrate Victoria\u2019s show at Paris Fashion Week in September 2024 \u2014 including Brooklyn and Nicola. Pointedly, Cruz posted a picture that Nicola wasn\u2019t in, and wrote: \u201cI love my family, I love you guys more than anything, mum &amp; dad, you gave us life and cared for us no matter what, I cannot tell you how blessed we all are to have you in our lives x.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      Then, in June, Cruz <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/ellendurney\/cruz-beckham-mocks-brooklyn-beckham-career-amid-feud\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">couldn\u2019t resist taking a jab at Brooklyn<\/a> after somebody seemingly mistook him for his older brother. As I\u2019m sure you know, Brooklyn\u2019s various short-lived careers over the years have made him the butt of the joke in pop culture, and when Cruz posted a video of himself singing to TikTok, another internet user wrote: \u201cgoing to stick with this job or going to become a race car driver next or something,\u201d to which Cruz quipped in response: \u201cWrong brother mate.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      He has also been the only member of the Beckham family to publicly speak out about the rumors surrounding them. When it was widely reported that Brooklyn was upset because Romeo started dating his ex Kim Turnbull in late 2024, Cruz explicitly stated: \u201cBrooklyn and Kim never dated,\u201d (for what it\u2019s worth, Kim herself has also issued a statement vehemently denying any romantic involvement with Brooklyn).<\/p>\n<p>      And when tabloids mistakenly reported that David and Victoria had unfollowed Brooklyn on Instagram last month, Cruz was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/mychalthompson\/cruz-beckham-defends-david-victoria-beckham\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">quick to set the record straight<\/a>. Sharing a Daily Mail headline about the unfollowing to his Instagram story, Cruz wrote: \u201cNOT TRUE My mum and dad would never unfollow their son.. Let\u2019s get the facts right. They woke up blocked\u2026 as did I.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      So, with all of this in mind, when Brooklyn\u2019s shocking statement dropped on Monday night, it\u2019s not unreasonable to speculate that Cruz probably had to be physically restrained from his phone to stop him from sharing a statement of his own.<\/p>\n<p>      However, Cruz has made his feelings clear in a more subtle way, with the youngest Beckham boy being caught liking playful memes about Brooklyn\u2019s claims on Instagram \u2014 suggesting that he can see the funny side of the whole situation.<\/p>\n<p>      If you have been anywhere near the internet in the last 48 hours, you\u2019re probably aware that people are having a field day with Brooklyn\u2019s claim that Victoria \u201cdanced very inappropriately on\u201d him at his wedding, with many people sharing clips of provocative dances and joking that this was Victoria on the dance floor.<\/p>\n<p>      And Cruz has been spotted liking at least two of these. The first is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DTtYIiOiLmO\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">clip<\/a> of Victoria herself clad in leather while dancing and performing her post-Spice Girls solo single \u201cNot Such An Innocent Girl\u201d back in 2001. The caption simply reads: \u201cThe wedding dance in question.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      The other post is an Instagram <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DTuz21mjSsQ\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">reel<\/a> from comic @Olly_1010 depicting the DJ at Brooklyn and Nicola\u2019s wedding. Olly says: \u201cAnd now for the song requested from the mother of the groom for her first dance with her son.\u201d Olly\u2019s face then drops in horror and concern as \u201cPony\u201d by Ginuwine starts playing. For reference, \u201cPony\u201d is strongly associated with stripping thanks to its slow, grinding, and bass-heavy production, as well as its provocative lyrics.<\/p>\n<p>      So far, Victoria, David, and Romeo have not responded to Brooklyn\u2019s statement in any capacity. However, David did <a href=\"https:\/\/www.buzzfeed.com\/stephaniesoteriou\/david-beckham-children-make-mistakes-brooklyn-statement\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">make some telling comments<\/a> during a pre-arranged appearance at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>      During his discussion about social media with CNBC\u2019s Squawk Box, David said: \u201cI\u2019ve always spoken about social media and the power of social media, for the good and for the bad.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      \u201cThe bad we\u2019ve talked about, with what kids can access these days. It can be dangerous, but what I\u2019ve found personally, especially with my kids as well; use it for the right reasons,\u201d he continued. \u201cI\u2019ve been able to use my platform and my following for UNICEF, and it\u2019s been the biggest tool to make people aware of what\u2019s going on around the world for children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      \u201cI\u2019ve tried to do the same with my children to educate them. They make mistakes. Children are allowed to make mistakes. That\u2019s how they learn,\u201d David added. \u201cSo, that\u2019s what I try to teach my kids. But you know, you have to sometimes let them make those mistakes as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>      To reiterate, David did not mention Brooklyn in any capacity during his appearance, and these quotes were part of a broader, pre-arranged conversation on the dangers of social media.<\/p>\n<p>      What do you make of Cruz\u2019s Instagram activity?
