David Beckham Sparks Reconciliation Hopes With One Quiet Instagram Move

Could the end of the Brooklyn Beckham family feud be in sight?

That might be optimistic, but it appears at least one party was keen to extend an olive branch – albeit to no avail.

Dad David Beckham was caught seemingly trying to reach out to his eldest son today, despite the budding chef’s January allegations that his parents have ‘controlled’ him from an early age and ‘tried endlessly to ruin [his] relationship’ with Nicola Peltz.

Given his following of over 87 million, it’s no surprise Becks’ Instagram activity is watched closely by fans.

And in his latest act of double-tapping, the football legend sent some love Brooklyn’s way, as he ‘liked’ a video of his son with wife Nicola at a fashion show.

Posted by celebrity photographer Yehiel Chekroune, the video was taken at the Messika showcase at Paris Fashion Week, where the Peltz-Beckhams sat front row.

Capturing the hustle and bustle after the show, the clip showed Brooklyn standing beside Nicola as she praised the designers’ ‘amazing’ work.

Calling the event ‘unbelievable’ and ‘beautiful’, she dished out hugs to the team and applauded.

The lovebirds matched their outfits for the occasion, with Brooklyn wearing an all-black ensemble of a T-shirt and baggy trousers, while Nicola bared her midriff in a bra top and fitted pants.

Former photographer Brooklyn and Lola actress Nicola couldn’t have looked happier, as they gladly hung around chatting, any thoughts of family drama firmly out of mind.

But it looks like the clip tugged on David’s heartstrings, leading to him giving it a like.

Noticing, @dodon.md wrote hopefully in the comments: ‘David liked this. He loves his kids. Everything’s going to be okay.’

Despite often moving in the same showbiz circles, Brooklyn has managed to avoid any public run-ins with his mum and dad over the past year.

And he wishes to keep it that way, as he snubbed mum Victoria Beckham’s fashion show this evening.

The Spice Girl had David and her kids sitting proudly at the Conciergerie at 2 Boulevard du Palais, cheering her on as she debuted her latest collection.

Cruz and Romeo were joined by their girlfriends, Jackie Apostel and Kim Turnbull, plus teen Harper, with the girls all dressed in VB’s label.

Noticeably absent was Brooklyn, who has not attended any of his mum’s recent shows, nor has he gone to family events.

Earlier this week, a source told Metro that he had no intention of showing his face: ‘Brooklyn has no plans to go to Victoria’s show on Friday or see his family while he’s in Paris.

‘He’ll be attending the Balenciaga show, alongside Nicola, on Thursday.’

Indeed, he attended the Balenciaga show with his other half, as well as the Messika catwalk, but the Victoria Beckham exhibition was not in his diary.

Despite his efforts being ignored, this isn’t the first time David has attempted to virtually reach out to his estranged son.

In March, both he and Victoria shared a happy birthday wish for his 27th, with David using his childhood nickname.

‘Happy birthday Bust,’ he posted on an Instagram Story alongside a throwback snap. ‘Love you x’

Along with her own baby Brooklyn pic, designer Victoria wrote, ‘Happy 27th birthday Brooklyn. I love you so much’, followed by a string of red hearts.

Neither parent tagged Brooklyn in their posts, as it’s believed they have both been blocked by him.

Younger brother Cruz confirmed the savage act last December amid reports that his parents had unfollowed Brooklyn, which he was keen to deny.

‘They woke up blocked … as did I,’ Cruz wrote in a post on his Story, alongside a screenshot of an article about the family feud.

Blasting the rumours as ‘NOT TRUE’, he added: ‘My mum and dad would never unfollow their son… Let’s get the facts right.’

As things stand, Brooklyn has made it clear he has no desire to patch things up, penning in his original statement: ‘I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.’

Having savaged ‘Brand Beckham’, accusing his parents of prioritising public perception over authentic relationships, he has remained in the US and is close with his billionaire in-laws.

Last August, he and Nicola even renewed their vows without Brooklyn’s relatives present. Instead, the ceremony was officiated by Nicola’s father, business tycoon Nelson Peltz, while David and Victoria found out about it online.

The only communication Brooklyn now has with David and Victoria is through legal teams.

Both have remained pretty tight-lipped on the feud front and continued putting on united displays with their other children and their partners since the start of the year, but Victoria did address the family row in April.

She told the Wall Street Journal: ‘I think that we’ve always – we love our children so much. We’ve always tried to be the best parents that we can be.

‘And you know, we’ve been in the public eye for more than 30 years right now, and all we’ve ever tried to do is protect our children and love our children. And you know, that’s all I really want to say about it.’

Reps for Brooklyn, David, and Victoria Beckham have been contacted for comment.
