Brooklyn and Romeo Beckham 12 The Beckham family is currently embroiled in a feud Credit: Instagram 12 Romeo is dating his brother's ex Credit: Getty Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz were notable absentees from his dad David Beckham's recent birthday bash. Brooklyn's siblings Romeo, Cruz and Harper all turned out to party with their dad, mum, and famous names like Tom Cruise and Guy Ritchie, while the eldest Beckham child was nowhere to be seen. Read More about Feuds SMILE THROUGH IT Brooklyn kisses Nicola at first public event since snubbing Becks' bash And since the snub, a rift between Brooklyn and his younger brother Romeo has been uncovered. Romeo's girlfriend is Kim Turnbull, who previously dated Brooklyn. Romeo and his girlfriend Kim, who Brooklyn once dated, have kept things low-key since going public in November. The Sun understands Nicola and Brooklyn had intended to be at David's birthday bash but cancelled at short notice due to Kim being in attendance. Brooklyn felt uncomfortable that his ex would be in attendance. But the blame is being levelled at Nicola, which has upset Brooklyn, according to a source. Kim Turnbull puts on brave face as she returns to work while Romeo jets to Paris with his mates amid family feud They said: 'She has never told him what to do and has been nothing but supportive — she's a loyal wife." Brooklyn and Nicola also missed an intimate evening last Wednesday at the family's £10million Cotswolds mansion. The dinner was attended by Victoria, Romeo, Cruz, and his girlfriend Jackie. Kim was absent, as were Brooklyn and Nicola. Liam and Noel Gallagher 12 Liam and Noel fell out when they were younger Credit: PA 12 The two brothers recently made up and will head on tour later this year Credit: Getty The two Manchester-born stars became famous together when they were in the band Oasis. Clashing personalities saw Noel briefly quit the band after Liam threw a tambourine at him during a performance. Later, Noel hit Liam on the head with a cricket bat when Liam annoyed him while he was working. Liam's last-minute pull-out and heckling from the audience during their MTV Unplugged performance in 1996 added to the feud. The last straw was when a backstage argument in Paris in 2009, reportedly over Liam's clothing firm, Pretty Green, led to Noel's decision to leave the band. But last month, Liam and Noel performed together for the first time in 16 years as they took to the stage of a members' club in north London. And now, the pair are preparing for the Oasis reunion tour which will take place later this year. Leonardo DiCaprio and his step-brother Adam Farrar 12 Leonardo DiCaprio and his step-brother Adam Ferrar in 1978 Credit: Getty 12 Leonardo and Adam are not close anymore Credit: Getty 12 In the 00s and 10s, Adam accused Leo of putting fame before his family. Credit: Getty Although Leo and his step-brother Adam were close as kids, as they grew up, they grew apart. In the 00s and 10s, Adam accused Leo of putting fame before his family. In 2016, Adam spoke out about his relationship with Leo. "We were once so close. I loved him and I still do," he told MailOnline. He added: "But we've not spoken in a couple of years. The last time I saw Leo was at his birthday party a couple of years ago. "I'd been invited by another friend. Leo was pleased to see me and gave me a hug. "But when I try to call him, my messages go unanswered. He has a whole team around him now and it's impossible to penetrate that wall of hangers-on." He also told the paper: "Leo wants to save the world but he seems more concerned about the environment and climate change than he does about his own brother. It hurts." While Leo got famous, Adam developed a marijuana and cocaine habit, as well as a serious heroin addiction, with this coming to a head in 2008. "I was arrested five or six times for petty theft, shoplifting from supermarkets, trying to support an opiate addiction of half a gram to a gram a day," Adam told the outlet. "Leo and I never had an argument. But he started surrounding himself with people that didn't want me around. He's the biggest star in the world and there's me, messed up on drugs. I was slowly shut out of his world. "Finally I got tired of going in and out of jail. I've been off heroin since 2013," he said. Meghan Markle and her half-sister Samantha Markle 12 Meghan Markle says she grew up as an only child Credit: JAKE ROSENBERG/NETFLIX 12 She has a half sister - Samantha Markle Credit: PA:Press Association Megan and her half sister Samantha Markle have been embroiled in a feud that has been long-running for many years. According to Samantha, she and Meghan were close when they were growing up, although this is not backed by the Duchess. The pair are 17 years apart and did not grow up at the same time. In 2018, Vanity Fair reported that Doria Ragland and Thomas Markle "moved in together a couple of years before Meghan was born, along with Samantha and Thomas junior, who had relocated to L.A. after living with their mum." In Meghan's chat with Oprah in 2021, she declared: "I grew up as an only child, which everyone who grew up around me knows, and I wished I had siblings." Samantha is estranged from Meghan, and the pair have not spoken for more than a decade, since her 'early twenties', it has been claimed. Due to their estrangement, Samantha was not invited to Meghan's wedding to Prince Harry in 2018. Samantha said at the time: "Out of respect and humanitarianism, the Markles should be invited if 2,000 complete strangers are. Our uncle, brother, me, best friend of 30 years, nephews. At issue is not a matter of closeness. Family is family." Nick and Aaron Carter 12 Nick Carter and Aaron Carter didn't always get along Credit: Getty - Contributor Nick and Aaron Carter grew apart over the years. The pair's bond weakened due to childhood trauma, addiction, and family drama. In 2019, Nick filed a restraining order against Aaron, saying he had made violent threats. Aaron denied this also accusing Nick of abuse. On November 5, 2022, Aaron died at his home in California at the age of 34. His body was found in his bathtub by a housekeeper. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner later ruled that Carter's death was accidental: drowning after inhaling difluoroethane and taking alprazolam (Xanax). He was cremated, and his ashes were left in the care of his twin sister Angel. Julia Roberts and her half-sister Nancy Motes 12 Julia Roberts had a half sister Credit: Getty - Contributor Julia Roberts and her half-sister Nancy Motes had a "tortured" bond before she died by suicide. In 2014, Nancy, who was 37, was found in a bathtub filled with water at a friend's home in Los Angeles, where she had been dog-sitting. LA County Coroner spokesman John Kades said prescription drugs had been found at the residence. She wrote a suicide note blaming Julia for bullying her most of her adult life. In the three-page note, she said: "My so-called siblings get nothing except the memory that they are the ones that drove me into the deepest depression I've been in." Louis Tomlinson and his half-sister Georgia The One Direction star's biological dad left shortly after he was born and became estranged from him. His father later had a daughter called Georgia who became a huge One Direction fan when she was 14. She and Louis' biological dad, Troy, then saw Louis in a One Direction concert when the band were at the height of fame. The siblings failed to reconnect.

Kurt Cobain's $6 million guitar is going on display in London for the first time
A piece of bona fide rock history is coming to London next month. Kurt Cobain's acoustic guitar – which is the most expensive guitar ever sold and was apparently the last guitar he ever played – is going on display in the capital. The guitar will be part of an exhibition titled 'Kurt Cobain Unplugged' at the museum of the Royal College of Music (RCM – which was recently crowned the world's best place to study music), and it'll feature alongside Cobain's mothy old cardigan, which he wore for his legendary MTV Unplugged performance. The exhibition will mark a few 'firsts'. It'll be the first time the guitar has gone on display in Europe, and it'll be the first time that it's gone on show alongside Cobain's battered olive-green mohair cardigan. Curated by American rock journalist Alan di Perna and the RCM's Gabriele Rossi Rognoni, the exhibition will also feature Nirvana memorabilia, including gig posters and collectible vinyl. Kurt Cobain's acoustic guitar is a Martin D-18E which he modified to be played left-handed. According to Courtney Love, it was the last guitar Kurt Cobain ever played. After being passed down to Kurt's daughter Frances Bean Cobain then given to her ex-husband in a divorce settlement, in 2020 it went up for auction and was bought by Australian businessman Peter Freedman for a whopping $6 million (£4.54 million). Freedman has loaned it to the RCM for this exhibition, which will open on June 3. Tickets are on sale now for £5, and you can buy them here.

Nirvana Brings Two Classic Albums Back To The Charts
Four of Nirvana's albums appear on the U.K. charts this week, with two, Nevermind and In Utero, ... More reappearing on at least one list apiece. Kurt Cobain of Nirvana during the taping of MTV Unplugged at Sony Studios in New York City, 11/18/93. Photo by Frank Micelotta. *** Special Rates Apply *** Call for Rates *** Even with just a few albums to the band's name, Nirvana's ability to hold on and find positions on multiple charts is special. As this week's U.K. music rankings show, the group's catalog still connects in a major way with a huge audience, which is willing to listen however they can. The legendary outfit doesn't claim a massive discography, and in the decades since the group disbanded, the steady drip of additional content has remained small. But what Nirvana lacked in quantity, it more than made up for in impact. More than 30 years after the band's breakthrough, fans are still streaming, buying, and rediscovering everything the grunge pioneers ever shared. This frame, four different Nirvana projects appear on various U.K. albums rankings — and two of them manage to return, proving once again that even a handful of projects can go a very long way. Among the two Nirvana albums that stage comebacks this week, Nevermind is the higher-rising of the pair. The band's blockbuster collection reappears on the Official Vinyl Albums chart at No. 37. That return brings the group back to the top 40 on one of the U.K.'s most specific tallies. Nevermind doesn't only land on the one tally this week. The classic title appears inside the top 40 on four separate charts in the U.K. This frame, it reenters both the Official Album Sales and Official Physical Albums rankings at No. 37, matching its placement on the Vinyl Albums tally. Over on the Official Rock & Metal Albums chart, the full-length climbs three spaces to No. 5. The other Nirvana collection to rejoin the U.K. charts this week is In Utero. While it doesn't perform as well as Nevermind, the album still manages to break back onto a pair of rankings. The title appears at No. 88 on the Official Physical Albums list and No. 95 on the Official Album Sales tally. At the same time, it pushes forward on the Official Rock & Metal Albums roster, lifting three rungs to No. 16. While Nevermind and In Utero are the only Nirvana releases that return in any fashion, two other efforts from the band are also present. The self-titled compilation Nirvana dips slightly on the Official Albums chart to No. 89, but it improves on the Official Albums Streaming ranking, moving up to No. 77. Meanwhile, Unplugged in New York — the live project released shortly after Kurt Cobain's death — rises from No. 26 to No. 19 on the Official Rock & Metal Albums ranking.
