Shock update in Beckham family feud as Brooklyn ‘goes no contact' with David and Victoria for heartbreaking reason
BROOKLYN Beckham has cut all contact with his family and is refusing to reply to their messages amid their bitter feud, according to reports.
The 26-year-old, who lives in LA with wife Nicola Peltz, 30, has no desire to speak to his parents or siblings following his no-show at dad David's 50th birthday celebrations, an insider has told Page Six.

The sourced said: "Brooklyn told his family he wants no contact and he's not responding to those that try to connect.'
However, another source close to Brooklyn is said to have denied the claim, simply saying: 'Everyone's focus should be David Beckham's great honor.'
The Sun has contacted representatives for Brooklyn and the Beckhams for comment.
England legend David will be knighted as part of King Charles' birthday honours.
It's a title he has coveted for some time and it means Victoria will be come Lady Beckham.
Brooklyn reportedly only found out about the news through the media.
David was first put forward for a knighthood in 2011 after helping to secure the London 2012 Olympics.
But he was blocked from getting the title by the Honours Committee after becoming caught up in a tax avoidance scheme, along with many other stars.
His finances were cleared by the taxman at least four years ago - paving the way for him to finally get the coveted honour.
Just weeks ago we revealed how David and Victoria feel there might be no way to reconcile with their eldest child.
It followed Brooklyn sharing a video of him and Nicola riding on his motorbike and writing: 'My whole world. I will love you forever. I always choose you baby.'
Those close to the Beckhams said the message seemed 'very pointed'.
A source added: 'It shows how much this situation with his family has escalated.
"It's very sad for everyone involved, especially David and Victoria who love him very much. This isn't the Brooklyn his family knows and loves.
'This post was like a dagger to their hearts but they will always be there for Brooklyn.'
Brooklyn added of his wife Nicola: 'You're the most amazing person I know. Me and you forever baby.' She responded: 'I've always got you baby.'
Hours later, Brooklyn's brother Cruz, 20, declared his love for his parents in another Instagram post.
Sharing a picture of David and Victoria with all four of their children, Cruz wrote: 'I love my family, I love you guys more than anything.
'Mum and 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.'
Brooklyn's post was criticised by some followers, with one writing: 'What a dig at his mum and dad! '
Another added: 'Actually quite sad that you are adding fuel to the fire to further hurt your parents.'
However those close to Brooklyn and Nicola - who married in April 2022 - insisted it was not a dig.
A source said: 'They are unbelievably smitten, and for him, social media is another way of showing his love.
"Brooklyn would be happy to meet his parents behind closed doors and hopes for a reconciliation.'

Brooklyn recently flew to London to film an ad near the Chelsea Flower Show, where David was meeting the King.
But a contact close to his parents claims Brooklyn did not tell his family he was coming.
They said: 'It shows how fractured the relationship has become, that not even texts or calls are made between them.'
Tensions became public when Brooklyn did not publicly acknowledge fashion designer Victoria, 51, on Mother's Day. He then failed to show at any of David's 50th birthday parties.
His mum and dad have continued to acknowledge him on social media, but pals of Brooklyn and Nicola suggested that was for show.
The Sun revealed that the couple recently had dinner in California with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who were 'very empathetic'.

Get set, go: exciting new theme park experiences await in the US
After a tension-building climb, Valravn prepares to drop. And not just any drop – this behemoth of a rollercoaster plummets 223ft at a staggering 90-degree angle. It's just one of the highlights at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. For thrill-seekers, the self-styled rollercoaster capital of the world is a compulsory stop on a road trip from New York to Chicago – but for theme park-lovers heading elsewhere in the US, there are scores of incredible options to choose from. Some are about the adrenalin rushes, some major in nostalgia and old-time atmospherics and others provide immersive storytelling. Crucially, the US's theme parks are always evolving to bring something new, different and exciting. This year's new openings and anniversary celebrations, however, offer a bumper crop for those ready to ride… High octane thrills In Ohio, Cedar Point's newest test of nerve is the innovative tilt coaster Siren's Curse. After climbing a 160ft-tall lift hill, Siren's Curse comes to a halt at a dead end, then tilts directly downwards to connect to the rest of the track. Cedar Point is also unleashing Top Thrill 2 – the world's highest rollercoaster, which shoots up a 420ft-high tower, then descends at a whopping 120mph. New thrill coasters elsewhere include the Wrath of Rakshasa at Six Flags Great America between Chicago and Milwaukee. This starts with a climb to 180ft, then a few seconds of white-knuckle suspense, hanging over a precipice. Once released, the Wrath of Rakshasa drops at high speed before launching into five upside-down inversions. At the Kings Dominion theme park just north of Richmond, Virginia, wing coaster Rapterra is the new lure. This one is all about the sensation of dangling legs as the ride swoops, dives and twists at speeds of up to 65mph and reaches heights of up to 145ft. In New Jersey, meanwhile, Six Flags Great Adventure has unveiled The Flash: Vertical Velocity. The point of difference here is that you're sent one way through the loops and turns, then climb a dead-end track and drop down to do it all again, only this time backwards. Movie magic The Flash: Vertical Velocity is a tie-in to the DC Extended Universe movies, which shouldn't come as much of a surprise given that the US's theme parks are a magnet for film fans. Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, is the best-known of the movie-linked parks. Its new offerings for 2025 include the light-adorned floats of the Disney Starlight: Dream the Night Away after-dark parade. There are also two new shows in the Hollywood Studios section of the complex. The Little Mermaid – A Musical Adventure provides the wholesome fun, while Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After indulges the darker side with Cruella de Vil and Maleficent et al. But the biggest big screen boost in 2025 comes courtesy of nearby Universal Orlando, in the shape of the newly opened Universal Epic Universe. Experiences here include magical time-travelling adventures in The Wizarding World of Harry Potter – Ministry of Magic, as well as Dark Universe, an area dedicated to scary movie characters such as Dracula and Frankenstein's monster. The spooky Curse of the Werewolf rollercoaster is a highlight not to be missed. The park also appeals to gamers, with family-friendly rides at Super Nintendo World based around Mario, Yoshi and other Nintendo favourites. The classics reimagined The great American theme park experience isn't all about the new, however. Several long-standing parks brim with pedigree, charm and tangible heritage. Of these, the original Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, California, set the template for the modern theme park. It celebrates its 70th anniversary this year with a series of new launches. These include the Tapestry of Happiness show that takes a journey through that 70-year history and the animated projections, lights and fireworks of the Paint the Night parade. In Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, another classic theme park is celebrating a birthday too. Dollywood – founded by country music legend Dolly Parton – is hosting a series of festivals and live music concerts for its 40th anniversary, while the new Dolly Parton Experience offers a warm look at the Jolene singer's life and hits.

Sam Thompson's 'bravado' in first meeting with Louis Tomlinson at Soccer Aid
Sam Thompson and Louis Tomlinson have finally come face-to-face after the One Direction singer started dating the Made in Chelsea star's ex-girlfriend Zara McDermott. Last year I'm A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! winner Sam, 32, split from his long-time girlfriend Zara, who rose to fame appearing on Love Island. The couple had been together for five years, however three months later Zara, 28, was spotted on a date in Suffolk with Louis, 33. At the time a source said Sam was 'hurting' and was struggling after seeing his ex 'move on so quickly'. Not long after the new romance was confirmed, it was revealed that the men were set to meet on live TV after both signing up for the Soccer Aid for Unicef match in June, where they will both be playing on the England team. Now, with the match just a few days away, the pair have taken to the pitch for training at Old Trafford in Manchester, with photographers capturing them together. During the session, Sam and Louis were seen doing their best to avoid eye contact when meeting. Throughout training, they were seen having a kick with their fellow teammates, who include Tom Grennan, Bear Grylls, Paddy McGuinness, Wayne Rooney and Jill Scott. One photo saw them pose for a team photo, with Louis standing directly behind Sam, while another showed Sam standing close by Louis as they trained. Weighing in on their interaction, body language expert Judi James said Sam looked like he was trying to convey a sense of 'bravado'. 'Both Sam's 'red carpet' pose and Louis's arrival for the game suggest the kind of overkill, stretched smiles that hint at a huge desire to act as though nothing has happened despite this being their first meet-up since Sam split with Zara who then moved on with Louis,' she told Metro. 'Sam's smile in particular looks like a gesture of bravado as his chest is also puffed in a look of pride and resilience. There are no moments here where the two men performed an act of acknowledgment, greeting each other or even shaking hands or hugging to signal there are no hard feelings.' She went on: 'When you try to ignore a glaring situation like this it often adds to the drama, but the suggestion is that neither of these celebrity 'nice guys' wanted to upstage a very worthwhile charity event. While Sam resorted to playful showboating Louis appeared more low-key and introvert, watching Sam at times but with the two men otherwise avoiding eye contact.' Since being spotted together in March, Louis and Zara have taken romantic trips away together to Los Angeles and Costa Rica. Meanwhile Sam has now moved on himself too, and is dating another Love Island star – Samie Eilishi, 25. However last month his best mate and podcast host Pete Wicks poked fun at Sam, addressing his 'rivalry' with Louis. 'How do you feel about the lineup? Do you think you have a strong team? Any kind of people in there that you're looking forward to playing with?' he asked. Laughing but avoiding to be drawn, Sam listed other stars he was looking forward to playing with. More Trending 'Make sure you get him on side though,' Pete said about boxer Tyson Fury. 'Because you may need him in your corner. In case you fall out with anyone – not that you will – but just in case there's any rivalries or anything. 'You know you have to train together and it's a lot and you know when you're kind of in close quarters with someone like that, all sorts get brought up.' Despite the potentially awkward run-in, a source previously said that Sam had 'no hard feelings' towards Louis. The Soccer Aid for Unicef match airs Sunday 15 June on ITV1. Got a story?

Charles joined by David Beckham and Meryl Streep to celebrate award winners
Charles met David Beckham, Stanley Tucci and Penny Lancaster, all King's Foundation ambassadors, alongside friends of the charitable body, Hollywood stars Kate Winslet and Meryl Streep, at the St James's Palace awards ceremony. Prizes including Young Entrepreneur and Advocate of the Year were presented by the celebrities including the King Charles III Harmony Award, recognising a long-term commitment to the foundation's mission of creating a world where people, places and the planet can live in harmony. Meryl Streep, David Beckham and Kate Winslet (Chris Ratcliffe/PA) Charles met his foundation's famous supporters and award winners before touring stands showcasing the charity's work, and Winslet smiled as she told him: 'Don't worry, I'll be all in – I've got your back.' Celebrity chef Raymond Blanc hailed the King for his campaigning over the decades on issues like communities, sustainability and traditional crafts that underpin the foundation, which is celebrating its 35th anniversary. His ITV series Raymond Blanc's Royal Kitchen Gardens took him to palaces like Hampton Court and Hillsborough, as well as Highgrove House and the Castle of Mey – places Charles calls home. Blanc, a foundation ambassador, said after meeting Charles: 'I think what the King has done is extraordinary. He's done it for many, many years – from the 1970s, about the same time I arrived in England – and my values are his values. 'There's a deep belief in connecting human beings with communities, with agriculture, with sustainability, management of waste, management of energy, and he has done it for the last 45, 50 years.' David Beckham presents the emerging talent award to Emily Hurst (Chris Ratcliffe/PA) Speaking about filming at the King's Scottish retreat, the Castle of Mey, which once belonged to his grandmother the Queen Mother, Blanc added: 'I really believe he got all his values seeing his grandma in this beautiful space. 'So natural, close to the sea, at the tip of Scotland where there was such a reservoir of natural things.' Blanc's words were echoed by Penny Lancaster who praised the monarch for creating the awards and highlighting the needs of the planet throughout his adult life. She added: 'The King may have been accused of hugging trees and people thinking he was mad when he started talking about the environment all that time ago, but he was at the forefront then and now has been proved right with everything he said and now we're all just trying to play catch up. 'I really recognise the beauty in the way he is trying to get us on board with his knowledge and if we can pass that on to the younger generation, and save some of the traditional skills like we've seen with these winners today, we can all be a part of making a difference.' Charles with the award winners and celebrity supporters of his foundation (Chris Ratcliffe/PA) The King's Foundation, previously known as The Prince's Foundation following an amalgamation of Charles' charities which stretch back to 1990, aims to 'advocate for the change His Majesty wants to see in the world'. The Emerging Talent prize was presented by Beckham, the former England football captain rumoured to be knighted soon, to Emily Hurst who has shown exceptional talent and commitment while on a King's Foundation programme. She recently completed the Chanel and King's Foundation Metiers d'Art Fellowship in Millinery, based at Highgrove Gardens after she had become fascinated with the heritage craft of straw braiding and began learning to produce hats from the material. She said: 'Working at Highgrove was absolutely the best place to be, surrounded by so much inspiration from His Majesty's garden and learning from some of the best milliners with country, I'm so incredibly honoured.'
