David Beckham, the retired professional soccer player, recently turned 50, but reports have surfaced that he refused to privately celebrate his milestone birthday with his son, Brooklyn Beckham, and daughter-in-law, Nicola Peltz. The couple traveled to London last week with the intention of honoring Beckham's special day, but their plans took an unexpected turn.
Sources revealed to TMZ that when Brooklyn, 26, and Peltz, 30, reached out to David to arrange a private meeting ahead of his grand birthday bash, they were met with a firm refusal. Instead, they were informed that the only way to celebrate David's birthday was at his lavish soirée held on Saturday at the Core restaurant in Notting Hill.
Faced with this situation, Brooklyn and Nicola opted to send their birthday wishes to the former athlete from afar rather than attending the party. It's worth noting that representatives for all parties involved have yet to respond to inquiries from Page Six regarding this family dynamic.
Notably absent from the festivities, Brooklyn and Nicola were missing from the celebratory photos shared by Victoria Beckham on her Instagram over the weekend. The former Spice Girls member, 51, expressed her joy in creating "special memories with family and friends," while sharing a glamorous group shot that included her other three children: son Romeo, 22, son Cruz, 20, and daughter Harper, 13.
In addition to Victoria's children, the post also featured Romeo and Cruz's respective girlfriends, Kim Turnbull and Jackie Apostel, highlighting the close-knit family atmosphere at the event.
Interestingly, reports have emerged suggesting a feud between Brooklyn and Romeo, allegedly stemming from Romeo's relationship with Kim Turnbull. Despite claims to the contrary, sources indicate that Brooklyn never dated Turnbull, raising questions about the family dynamics at play.
The tension was further evident when Brooklyn and Nicola were absent from Victoria’s Paris fashion show in March, an event attended by Romeo and his partner. Additionally, the couple missed David’s first birthday party last month at Cipriani Downtown Miami. Despite these absences, David's birthday celebrations have been nothing short of star-studded, attracting numerous A-list celebrities.
As David Beckham celebrated his 50th birthday amid mixed family dynamics, the absence of Brooklyn and Nicola raises intriguing questions about the Beckham family's relationships. Despite the controversies, the celebrations continue to captivate public interest, showcasing the complexities of familial ties in the spotlight.
