Romeo Beckham shares cryptic tattoo amid family feud with brother Brooklyn
Romeo Beckham added a new tattoo to his extensive ink collection, which comes after it was revealed Brooklyn no longer follows him and brother Cruz on social media Romeo Beckham showed off his brand-new tattoo on Tuesday, adding to his already extensive ink collection. Just like his father and brothers, the 22-year-old is covered in endless tattoos and his latest one is a short phrase that some have taken as a dig at his brother, Brooklyn Beckham. The Beckham family have been embroiled in a massive feud in recent months. The family feud appeared to gather pace when Brooklyn failed to attend his father's 50th birthday party in May, which, according to reports, left David heartbroken. It also emerged that neither Nicola Peltz nor Brooklyn was following his brother's Instagram accounts. But according to the publication, sources revealed that it was in fact Cruz and Romeo who have blocked Brooklyn. It comes after Cruz Beckham 'steals' his dad's tiny white trunks and family have epic response. And now, Romeo seemingly took a dig at Brooklyn with his new tattoo. The star took to his social media page to share the phrase 'C'est La Vie' which he got tattooed on top of his shoulder. The tattoo is French for 'that's life' or 'such is life'. The phrase is used to say that certain situations happen in life, and there is nothing you could do about them. It comes several weeks after Romeo issued a sharp response to Brooklyn seemingly unfollowing him and Cruz on social media. Romeo posted a screenshot of his Spotify, showing he was listening to a song entitled Walking Away, from Justin Bieber's new surprise album, titled Swag. Along with the screenshot, he wrote: "Yup" in a one word response to his brother's latest brutal move. He has also returned the favour by unfollowing Brooklyn on Instagram, too. Romeo also does not follow Brooklyn's wife, Nicola, on Instagram. The feuding siblings' brother Cruz, 20, also doesn't follow Brooklyn on Instagram. Meanwhile, those close to Brooklyn told The Sun last month that Brooklyn and Nicola did not unfollow the brothers and had "no idea" about it until he read about it online. "It's possible Romeo and Cruz blocked them, which would make it appear as him no longer following the brothers," they said. "He and Nicola certainly didn't unfollow them or block them — they're as confused as anyone else. The first they heard about it was when it was being reported on." Hot sauce entrepreneur Brooklyn still follows his famous mum and dad, so it is unclear if a war of words between himself and his brothers may have been happening behind the scenes.

Meghan toasts to ‘beautiful day' as she launches new rose wine
Meghan released her As Ever Napa Valley Rose 2024 – described as evoking the same 'soft notes of stone fruit, gentle minerality, and a lasting finish' as the 2023 rose – on Tuesday. It comes after the previous rose, launched last month, sold out within an hour. In a video posted on her Instagram, Meghan can be seen uncorking a bottle marked 'Bottle #1' in front of bouquets of pink and cream flowers – followed by close-up of the cork bearing the As Ever logo. Alongside the clip, she wrote: 'Here we go! First bottle off the line! 'Toasting to a beautiful day: Our Napa rose is live @aseverofficial.' As with the previous wine, the beverage is priced at more than £67 for a minimum three-bottle order – and only appeared to be available for US customers to buy, with shipping addresses limited to America. As Ever is Meghan's lifestyle brand which also sells cookie mix, herb tea, flower sprinkles and jams. A post on the company's Instagram show the corks branded with the As Ever logo, with a caption reading: 'C'est l'heure. 'Enjoy your last sips of summer with the newest vintage of our beloved Napa Valley rose.' The website describes the drink as 'thoughtfully curated by Meghan, Duchess of Sussex' and that it has been 'made to be enjoyed with the ones you love'. The pale pink wine, which comes in a clear bottle with a white, gold-rimmed label, has an ABV (alcohol by volume) of 13.5% – one percent lower than its predecessor. As with the 2023 rose, the newest wine is not available to buy in orders of less than three bottles. Three bottles cost 90 US dollars (around £67), six bottles cost 159 dollars (around £119) including a 12% discount, and 12 bottles are priced at 300 dollars (around £225) including a 17% discount. Meghan and the Duke of Sussex left the UK and moved to California five years ago for a new life after stepping down from the working monarchy. Napa Valley wine country is in northern California, around 50 miles from San Francisco.
