The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are understood to be supporting Brooklyn Beckham and wife Nicola Peltz amid their family row — and had dinner with them last week.
The quartet dined at the Sussexes' mansion in Montecito, California, just days after Brooklyn skipped all of his dad David's 50th birthday celebrations.
In this week's Sun Royal show, Royal Exclusive Matt Wilkinson described the Beckham conflict as a "Megxit-esque family rift."
Royal commentator Samara Gill said: "He's definitely trying to distance himself from the family."
The rift began when Brooklyn did not attend the 50th birthday party of his father, David.
This was supposedly due to an ongoing dispute between his wife, Nicola Peltz, and his mum, Victoria, and was exacerbated by brother Romeo's girlfriend, Kim Turnbull being in attendance.
Tensions worsened again earlier this week after Brooklyn also failed to attend Romeo's 21st birthday.
After marrying into the Peltz family on 9 April 2022, Brooklyn relocated to America - his wife's home country.
Now living in America, Brooklyn has become increasingly distant from his British roots.
Growing up in the Beckham family, Brooklyn made the most of the family's impressive wealth and connections, with Samara describing him as "the poster child for being a nepo baby."
Over the years, Brooklyn has frequently been mocked for his failed career attempts.
In 2017, Brooklyn published the photography book What I See to a largely negative response.
He faced similar backlash when he hosted the online video series 'Cookin' With Brooklyn', as fans slammed his lack of experience in a show that reportedly cost £74,000 per episode.
All of these passion projects were enthusiastically supported by his parents, who have a reported wealth of £500million according to The Sunday Times Rich List.
According to Samara, even this wasn't enough, as he has been enjoying the wealth of Nicola's billionaire father Nelson Peltz.
Nelson is the co-founder of Trian Partners, an investment management fund, and the non-executive chairman of Wendy's Company, Sysco and The Madison Square Garden Company.
Samara said: "I think he's chosen the money, personally. That's just a speculation."
Arthur Edwards said: "I don't know why he didn't go to his father's party.
"I think he should have been there."
Praising David Beckham for his support of his "toy boy" son, Arthur added: "I think family is everything."

Comparisons between Nicola and Meghan have been made by the public, with both women being branded as "controlling."
American-born Nicola, like Meghan, has "taken away Britain's finest men" according to Samara.
This is a problem that is all-too-familiar for Harry, with the former royals reportedly offering support to the Peltz Beckhams.
The couples are said to have "found a lot of common ground" after a meeting at the Sussexes' Montecito mansion.
In another Sun Exclusive, a source familiar with the event said: "Harry and Meghan were very empathetic and very kind to them both."
Apparently Nicola and Meghan found they had lots in common, with both being accused of wrecking their husbands' families.
The meeting had been arranged before the Beckham family fallout, with the pair were allegedly grateful for the support.
Victoria and Meghan also have a tense past, falling out in 2020 after Meghan accused Victoria of leaking stories about her.

U2 guitarist The Edge hails ‘monumental day' as he becomes Irish citizen
David Howell Evans, 63, was born in Essex in England to Welsh parents, but his family moved to Ireland when he was just a one-year-old. His Irish citizenship was conferred at a ceremony in Killarney, Co Kerry on Monday. Some 7,500 people will officially become Irish citizens across Monday and Tuesday. He described an 'amazingly joyful event'. 'For all of us, a monumental day,' he told RTE, wearing the distinctive hat he is known for, as well as an Irish flag badge on the lapel of his jacket. 'I'm a little tardy on the paperwork – I've been living in Ireland since I was one but the time was right and I couldn't be more proud of my country for all that it represents and all it's doing. 'It's showing real leadership right now in the world and this couldn't have come at a better moment for me.' The Edge, a guitarist in U2, has been involved with the band since its formation in Dublin in the late 1970s, going on to win scores of music awards. U2 is also noted for speaking out with songs such as Sunday Bloody Sunday about the shooting of unarmed protesters in Londonderry in 1972 by British soldiers, New Year's Day which became associated with the Polish Solidarity movement and Pride (In The Name Of Love) in tribute to Martin Luther King Jr. They also strongly supported efforts to secure peace in Northern Ireland with the Belfast/Good Friday Agreement in 1998. The band played Sunday Bloody Sunday last month with a call to 'stop war' at the Ivors award ceremony. The performance came as the group became the first Irish songwriters to be awarded an academy fellowship at the 70th year of the awards ceremony, hosted at London's Grosvenor House.

I've had this summer dress on my moodboard for weeks – it's finally back in stock
Nobody's doing summer dressing quite as well as Rixo right now. Its brilliant collaboration with Dragon Diffusion has been responsible for summer's most exciting handbags, and its vintage-inspired dresses have a pretty extensive celebrity fan club that includes Kate Middleton, Olivia Rodrigo and Sofia Richie. So it's safe to say that we've been fans of the British label for a while now. And just when we thought we couldn't love the label anymore, along came the dress of the season: the Edina. Classic yet timeless, the Edina has all the makings of a classic white summer dress – from its breathable cotton construction to its breezy ankle-skimming length. So what makes it special? The vintage Rixo touch, of course. Inspired by the brand's cult-favourite Ellery blouse, the maxi dress features a similar classic V-neckline trimmed with an oversized lace collar, evoking Prairie dress comparisons in the best way possible. Add to that a flattering ruffled hem and puffed sleeves, and you've got a dress that looks instantly polished and easy to wear. Little surprise, then, that our favourite influencers have been wearing the dress on repeat lately. Edina Cotton Maxi Dress Delicate, vintage-inspired and fashion editor-approved, this pretty white maxi will see you through everything from garden parties and race days to beachside dinners on holiday with ease. Then there's the details – from the intricate lace panels and delicate floral embroidery down the front to the micro pleats that subtly sculpt your shape – that make the Edina anything but basic. As with every other dress in Rixo's archives, the Edina has been designed to flatter across body types. If, like me, you're under 5'3" and find yourself tripping over most maxis, the Edina dress is available in a shorter length specifically for petites, while the adjustable waist tie helps adjust the shape to be as loose or fitted as you prefer. As wearable as it is appealing, the Edina dress is a moment in itself, which means styling it is as easy as it gets. Wear it with dainty Mary Janes and a straw bag for an unmistakably elegant weekend look or throw it on with wedge heels and some sleek sunglasses for a garden party or even a day at Wimbledon. The vintage-inspired dress could just as easily belong in one of your mum's old Kodak moments as it will on your Instagram grid. So naturally, it sold out fast after its initial release. Now that it's finally been restocked, we'd advise against hesitation. Whether you plan on twirling through Europe in the pretty white maxi or donning one for any upcoming event on your social calendar, Rixo's Edina dress isn't one you'd want to miss out on. Aubrie Cotton Midi Dress A boho spin on white dresses, the Aubrey is inspired by nightdresses from the 70s and features a smocked bodice that flares out into a tiered A-line skirt. Simply add a basket bag, wedge heels and a head scarf for a retro summer look. Hilary Cotton Dress If you're determined to stick to darker shades through summer, the Hilary cotton maxi makes for an excellent black dress for warmer weather. Boasting the same gorgeous lace panels, embroidery and ruffled hem as the Edina, this versatile maxi is incredibly easy to dress up or down depending on your preference.

At least another person approves! Granddaughter of famous Vogue Editor praises Bianca Censori for stepping out in public in a wild edible lingerie
It seems that Kanye West is not the only person enamoured with his Australian wife Bianca Censori's fondness for racy attire. Bianca turned heads over the weekend when she stepped out with West in Brooklyn, wearing an edible candy bikini. The racy 'swimwear' struck a chord with singer and model Caroline Vreeland. Caroline is the great-granddaughter of the iconic Diana Vreeland, who was the editor-in-chief of Vogue from 1963 until 1971, after 26 years at Harper's Bazaar. The singer and model, 37, took to her Instagram Stories this week to reveal that she was following in Bianca's footsteps. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Caroline shared a screenshot of a checkout page that showed a candy bra very similar to the one worn by the buxom brunette days earlier. 'Influenced!!!' Caroline captioned the image. Caroline, who released her debut album Notes on Sex and Wine in 2020, appeared on American Idol in 2013. But her time on the show was short-lived, with her being axed after it was revealed she had previously shot a reality show pilot produced by Idol host, Ryan Seacrest. Since then, she has consistently released music, starred in modelling campaigns for brands such as Steve Madden, and become an Instagram influencer, boasting 485,000 followers. It comes after Kanye and Bianca were spotted in Brooklyn this week with the rapper's wife wearing a very sweet outfit. Not one to hide her buxom form, this time around Bianca was wearing a bikini made entirely of candy. The 24-time Grammy winner and his spouse were seen holding hands on the summer day in the Big Apple, with Bianca's jet-black locks cut into bangs. Her two-piece was made of hundreds of pieces of sugary candies that ranged in colour from blue to white to green to yellow. She took to her Instagram Stories this week to reveal that she was following in Censori's footsteps Kanye, meanwhile, wore an ash-grey hoodie with black athletic pants, brown boots and black sunglasses. The eye-catching outing caught the attention of fellow rapper 50 Cent, who posted a pic of Bianca in the racy candy ensemble. 'Look at ye dirty little wife walking around the city naked,' the In Da Club rapper, 49, captioned the post. 'LOL is she gonna be a victim later?' Referring to past whispers that Bianca follows orders Kanye gives her, 50 Cent said, 'This looks like free will to me.' The Candy shop rapper wrapped up by saying, 'Anyway it was really hot today.' In a subsequent post, 50 Cent said he wasn't comfortable with the timing of the Bianca post, and pulled it down as such. 'I took the last post down I didn't realise it was Sunday,' he added. Since their secret 2022 wedding, Bianca has made a habit of turning heads with the barely-there outfits her husband styles her in. This latest near-naked moment only adds to a long list of viral looks, with her most unforgettable being that sheer, nothing-to-the-imagination dress at the 2025 Grammys. She's also sparked controversy abroad — notably during her scandalous, skin-baring strolls in Spain, where she even faced calls to be arrested for public indecency. Kanye was also recently slammed for dressing his Australian wife Bianca exactly like his ex Kim Kardashian. Earlier this month, she put on a very daring display as she stepped out in a plunging nude leotard. Looking very much like Kim Kardashian's doppelganger, Bianca also wore voluminous black hair extensions, further prompting comparisons to the reality star queen. It was not lost on fans, with many pointing out the similarities between the pair. Many also took aim at Kanye, claiming he was behind the decision for her to channel his ex-wife. 'I see Kanye had her dress just like Kim all the way down to the Kim wig,' one fan commented on Daily Mail's article on the risqué exhibition. Another suggested that Bianca's frequent racy displays were the result of 'low self-esteem'. 'Bianca either has really low self esteem and she doesn't think she deserves better than being bossed around by her husband or she likes being told what to do and the attention she gets. She is unstable like her husband,' they suggested. A third chimed in with a similar comment: 'He probably makes her wear a cardboard mask with Kim's face on it, looks like she's gone and got hair extensions to match too.' Since their secret 2022 wedding, Bianca has made a habit of turning heads with the barely-there outfits her husband styles her in.
