Brooklyn Beckham's ominous warning to sister Harper before fiery family feud
As the Beckham family faces increasing tension, Brooklyn has offered advice to his younger sister Harper, urging her to focus on herself amid the growing divide
A growing divide within the Beckham family has become increasingly apparent, with sources claiming that Brooklyn Beckham 's marriage to Nicola Peltz is at the centre of ongoing tensions between the couple and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham. The reported fallout, described as 'severe' has led to an apparent estrangement - which hasn't gone unnoticed by fans.
While the family has remained largely silent on the matter publicly, recent developments have highlighted the strained relationships, including Brooklyn's absence from his father's high-profile 50th birthday celebrations last month. Despite flying to London from Los Angeles, Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, did not attend any of the events organised to mark the milestone - including a private party at the Beckhams' Cotswolds home, a family trip to France, and a dinner at Core restaurant in Notting Hill.
The couple also reportedly failed to inform David and Victoria of their presence in the UK during a photoshoot with luxury fashion label Moncler, held less than two miles from the family's West London residence.
The distance between Brooklyn and his family was further underscored by a recent social media post in which he reaffirmed his commitment to Nicola. 'I always choose you baby, you're the most amazing person in the world, me and you forever baby,' he wrote on Instagram, in what many interpreted as a message of allegiance to his wife.
Shortly afterward, Brooklyn's younger brother Cruz, 20, appeared to signal support for their parents. In a post of his own, he 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 are to have you in our lives.'
Meanwhile, in a previous interview conducted before the public became aware of the family rift, Brooklyn shared advice he had given his 13-year-old sister Harper. 'I just tell her, find that one thing that you love and just put your head down, don't listen to anyone,' he said, adding: 'Find that one thing that you love and don't listen to anyone.'
The Beckhams are said to be particularly affected by the impact this divide may have on Harper, who has long shared a close relationship with both Brooklyn and Nicola. Peltz frequently referred to Harper as 'my younger sister' in affectionate posts on Instagram, sharing numerous pictures and praising the teen.
As Harper prepares to celebrate her 14th birthday in July, questions remain over whether Brooklyn will attend.
Earlier this week, David and Victoria made a visible effort to present a united front by attending the TIME100 Impact Dinner in New York. The couple reportedly displayed a family photo taken at Victoria's 50th birthday, which included all four of their children.
Despite such efforts to reconcile, there has been no public sign of a resolution between Brooklyn and his parents.

Ex-England international wants more female role models in sport
Telford, from County Durham, achieved 27 caps in an England shirt and appeared in three FA Cup finals with Leeds United, Chelsea and Notts County. She lacked visible representation during her youth but since taking on her post-playing role working at Chelsea Women as a Commercial Manager, she can see new opportunities for young girls. 'I basically didn't have any female role models until I was a lot older,' she said. 'If I was asked that question as a youngster, I would have said David Beckham or David Ginola. 'I was in a school last week, and we were doing the trophy tour for the FA Cup. I sat down next to a group of girls, and I said, 'Oh, who are your role models?' and they said Sam Kerr, Millie Bright, Lauren James and that is just so normal for them. 'To see them writing their names down, wishing them good luck, it's just so inspiring for them to be like, I see myself in her, or I want to be like her one day.' A study by Sure in 2024 found that 58% of girls say that having a female role model strengthens their passion for football. Telford, who was part of a panel discussing the issue at Stamford Bridge this week, has been able to become the role model for others that she never had, spending eight years at WSL heavyweights Chelsea during her career. 'It's mad. I sometimes forget it, until someone's like, 'Can you sign my T-shirt? Can you sign my boot?','' she said. 'It's almost like a responsibility as well in the best kind of way. I didn't want to be a footballer for any other reason, I just loved it. I genuinely do. If you ask most of the girls who play the game, it's all for the love of it. 'The responsibility that comes with that is to always turn up as who you are, because there's always going to be a young girl, a group of girls that will be like, 'Oh, I sound like her, I look like her, I play the position she does.' 'Not all of us have a smooth journey. Just because when you get to the top, it looks like it's all great, and Instagram and TikTok can make it look all fun, actually it's a difficult role. 'There's a lot of rejection, sometimes confidence is low, you're not selected. There's a lot of things that you have to deal with but that also helps you prepare for life outside.' For Telford, that authenticity is key in allowing girls to connect with players and create role models who speak to wider aspects of life beyond elite football. 'Role models should allow girls to aspire to be Lionesses and want to be the best of the best, but also empower them to feel confident, to feel like they can do it, and that gives them life skills in the longer term as well,' she added. Visibility plays a vital role in inspiring young girls in sports, but it alone isn't enough. Increased visibility needs to be paired with real world grassroots investment – like Sure's Breaking Limits Programme – find out more here

I Usually Hate Dresses - But This Popular High Street Style Changed My Mind
When I think of my spring/summer wardrobe, I think of buttery pastels, muted florals and heaps of linen - but this year, I've had to rethink my wardrobe because of one trend in particular. Now, I'm not suggesting you start listing all your existing clothes on Vinted, instead, consider making space for polka dots. As you've probably seen by now, the perennial dotted print is elbowing out ditsy florals and neutral linens, and this year polka dots have made a departure from the classic styles we saw on the likes of Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman , to become more grown-up, in a new palette of colours and dots of all shapes and sizes - backed by designers like Valentino, Jacquemus and Carolina Herrera. If I had to single out one high street style that's managed to convinced me to swap my beloved florals for something more 2025, it would be the Puff-Sleeve Mini Dress from & Other Stories. Equal parts coquettish and cool, the latest polka dot phenomenon is cut to a mini length, with a subtly cinched waist and voluminous puff sleeves. Its monochrome colourway - a black base finished with small white polka dots - provides an interesting contrast that can most definitely hold itself among a more eclectic wardrobe, but also retains some of that old-school Hollywood glamour you'd expect in a polka dot number. ©Instagram/@hellovalentine Puff-Sleeve Mini Dress & Other Stories' Puff Sleeve Mini Dress is one you can take on holiday, and then wear to a wedding, garden party, Christening - or pretty much any other social date you have in your calendar. With an open back that's gloriously chic and voluminous puff sleeves, I expect this dress will be one to sell out. Styling the mini dress is delightfully simple, particularly if you have your favourite pair of chunky sandals in tow. For a look fit for cafe-hopping in (insert European city of your choice), pair the polka dot mini dress with tan sandals and a Dragon Diffusion bag. Alternatively for the evening, swap out the flat sandals for strappy kitten heels or platform sandals and the tote for something smaller. If, it gets towards the end of summer you find it's a little cold to wear a mini dress, you can always layer a sheer turtleneck top underneath the dress and add a pair of knee-high boots. & Other Stories' polka dot mini joins this season's polka dot dress hall-of-famers, earning its place alongside the bandeau-style Felicity Dress from Nobody's Child and Reformation's fuss-free Nara dress. The & Other Stories iteration finds itself somewhere in the middle - between polished and playful - and it's mini length sets it apart from the sea of midis and floor-sweeping maxis. It probably comes as no surprise then, that it's already selling out (and fast). Main image credit: Instagram/@lanitonnu Gemma Lavers is a fashion commerce writer at Grazia, where she tracks down viral pieces and is as comfortable navigating the M&S new-in page as she is dissecting the latest celebrity look. When not writing, shopping or at Reformer Pilates (a cliché but she's hooked), Gemma will likely be planning her next holiday (and what she's going to wear). For a glimpse into said travels, outfit inspo and life as a journalist, follow her on Instagram or TikTok.
