Brooklyn Beckham<\/a> tuned in to watch the World Cup final at home on Sunday (19 July) night \u2013 while his estranged family was spotted in the stands at the MetLife Stadium. <\/p>\n

The 27-year-old was seen watching the Spain vs Argentina match solo in a snap shared by his wife Nicola Peltz<\/a> on Instagram. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile, his siblings \u2013 brothers Romeo and Cruz, and sister Harper \u2013 attended the final with their parents, David and Victoria Beckham<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Budding musician Cruz<\/a>, who was born in Spain during his dad\u2019s stint playing for Real Madrid, shared a number of photos as he cheered on Luis de la Fuente\u2019s side. <\/p>\n

In a carousel captioned \u201cseeing red\u201d, the 21-year-old could be seen posing with girlfriend Jackie Apostle and celebrating with the likes of former Spain defender Sergio Ramos. The final was also watched by Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet and Kylie Jenner<\/a>, Beyonc\u00e9 and Jay-Z, and other celebs.<\/p>\n

The football-loving Beckhams have been a fixture at this year\u2019s tournament, cheering on England until they were heartbreakingly knocked out by Argentina in the semi-final<\/a> and previously joining the likes of Tom Cruise at the USA\u2019s opening match back in June. <\/p>\n

Television cameras have often cut to the family after crucial moments on the pitch \u2013 which is how Victoria ended up going viral during England\u2019s quarter-final triumph over Norway.<\/p>\n

Jude Bellingham\u2019s extra-time winner<\/a> sparked huge celebrations in the Beckhams\u2019 box, with David leaping out of his seat and punching the air.<\/p>\n

But, showing true commitment to her personal brand of nonchalance, Posh Spice was notably subdued and remained seated, before casually reaching for her phone to snap a picture.<\/p>\n

Victoria\u2019s muted reaction sparked plenty of hilarious memes and David later addressed his wife\u2019s scene-stealing reaction<\/a>, commenting on one Instagram post with a string of laughing emojis and the explanation: \u201cShe was celebrating inside I promise, her reactions were slightly slower than mine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite being based in the States nowadays, Brooklyn hasn\u2019t attended any matches in person \u2013 and even joked about the fact he\u2019d be watching the tournament alone<\/a> in a tongue-in-cheek advertising campaign. <\/p>\n

The former photographer featured in a commercial for food delivery service DoorDash, which opened with him saying to the camera: \u201cYou’re probably wondering why I’m watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 from home\u2026 It’s a long story.\u201d<\/p>\n

He then took a stack of World Cup match tickets and placed them in a bag, before handing them to a DoorDash employee and adding: \u201cThese can go to someone… else. Put them somewhere fun.\u201d<\/p>\n

The eldest of the Beckham kids confirmed he was no longer on speaking terms with his parents<\/a> in an explosive Instagram post in January.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do not want to reconcile with my family,\u201d he wrote. \u201cI\u2019m not being controlled, I\u2019m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.\u201d <\/p>\n

David and Victoria have largely avoided addressing the drama. When asked about the feud in an interview in April, Victoria replied<\/a>: \u201cWe\u2019ve always tried to be the best parents that we can be. And you know, we\u2019ve been in the public eye for more than 30 years right now, and all we\u2019ve ever tried to do is protect our children and love our children.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd you know, that\u2019s all I really want to say about it.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Your support helps us to tell the story From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":300455,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,9,24,63],"class_list":["post-300454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=300454"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/300454\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/300455"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=300454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=300454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=300454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
