Cruz Beckham 'steals' his dad's tiny white trunks and family have epic response
Singer Cruz Beckham has taken a leaf from his dad David Beckham's book as he stripped down to just a pair of tiny white trunks on the family's lavish yacht holiday Cruz Beckham has attempted to give his dad David a run for his money as he stripped down to a pair of tiny white trunks. The aspiring musician, 20, donned a pair of budgie smugglers as he soaked up the sun on his parent's lavish yacht. He has been lapping it up with famous dad David, mum Victoria and his siblings Romeo and Harper on their £16million vessel. His older brother Brooklyn was nowhere to be seen, as he's favoured a trip around the Mediterranean with his wife Nicola Peltz's family instead. Brooklyn has been keeping his distance from his famous family, having skipped David's 50th birthday in May. It comes after Brooklyn was spotted cosying up with his father-in-law in a 'financial flex' over his own family. Cruz certainly turned heads with his social media snap from the Beckham yacht trip as he spread his legs wide while sat on a large white sofa at the back of the boat. He left little to the imagination as he proudly posed in his tiny trunks and a pair of sunglasses. It seemed he was keen to lap up the attention as he originally captioned his bold snap: "Speeedos," before changing it to "Spreadin em." His older brother Romeo was certainly surprised by the photo as he quipped: "Jesus." Cruz's girlfriend Jackie Apostel also got involved as she left a string of laughing crying emoji's under Romeo's comment. Their grandma and David's mum, Sandra, made her feelings clear as she left a series of telling emojis under Cruz's post. She wrote a red love heart, followed by a shocked open mouth emoji and the laugh crying face. One family member who will not be subjected to the post is Brooklyn, as the brothers unfollowed each other while their feud rumbles on. Earlier this month, reports claimed Romeo and Cruz unfollowed Brooklyn on social media, which insiders branded the 'Gen Z version of World War Three". 'Even when the family have reached out to Brooklyn they have been ignored,' a source told the Sun. 'He's not had contact for months and it feels clear to them that he doesn't want to make amends.' Initially, it was reported that Brooklyn and Nicola had unfollowed Romeo and Cruz but a friend of Brooklyn's said that wasn't the case. 'Brooklyn had no idea 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.' Shortly after news of the snub broke, Romeo shared Justin Bieber 's Walking Away on his Instagram Stories, captioning it: 'Yup.' Brooklyn and Nicola have been enjoying a holiday of their own as they sailed into Saint-Tropez on a £85million, 80 metre yacht called Project X as they lapped up the luxury getaway. It had been rented by Nicola's parents, Nelson and Claudia Peltz, and set them back a staggering £1.2million a week. Brooklyn avoided a run in with his parents as they arrived in the same French dock just two days later - which he reportedly was unaware of. They turned up on a £16million, 40 metre vessel named Seven.

He also sported a backwards black cap as he showed off his array of arm tattoos in the snaps. Alongside the photos, shared to Instagram, he wrote: 'Me waiting for my Mrs to try on clothes haha'. The amateur chef, 26, who is embroiled in a rift with his family, cut a casual figure as he posed for selfies in a changing room while waiting for Nicola It comes after Brooklyn spent the week on a £85million superyacht called Project X, which is chartered for £1.2million per week. The 260ft luxury vessel was rented by Nicola's billionaire parents, who holidayed with the couple and the rest of the Peltz clan. Just two days after the family jetted back to the U.S. after their European getaway, Brooklyn's parents arrived in the same dock on their £16million yacht, Seven. David, 50 and Victoria, 51, bought their 130ft boat in 2022, after previously buying a smaller vessel by the same name the year before. Speaking about the financial rivalry, a source told The Sun: 'Brooklyn's yacht dwarfs the one owned by David and Victoria. It's a financial flex. 'Their relationship is beyond soured now but Brooklyn has really landed on his feet. Nicola and her parents, Nelson and Claudia, are his family now. And he's clearly enjoying the spoils.' Project X boasts a master suite, a VIP cabin, five double rooms as well as two twin cabins, while being able to hold a crew of 28 to run the boat. Special features include a huge glass-sided swimming pool, a wellness suite, a spa and a jaw-dropping 360-degree sundeck. Meanwhile, the Beckham's smaller yacht has five cabins in comparison, sleeping ten people and seven crew members. Their boat features a spa bath on the upper deck, as well as 65ft garage, plenty of water toys and a jet ski to keep the family entertained. Seven is named after David's iconic football shirt number as well as their daughter Harper's middle name. They previously owned a £5million boat but upgraded it less than a year later. David and Victoria are away with their other three children, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20 and Harper, 14. They narrowly avoided an awkward run-in with estranged son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola in the celebrity hotspot. They arrived in the south of France for their annual summer break, where their eldest son had been spotted holidaying on his billionaire father-in-law's boat nearby. David and Victoria were joined on the lavish getaway by the rest of their children; Harper and Romeo while youngest son Cruz soaked up the sun elsewhere in St Tropez with girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30. Romeo and Harper were first of the family to be spotted in St Tropez on Thursday, just 48-hours after Brooklyn met with godfather Elton John, who was also holidaying in the South Of France, for lunch where the singer 'attempted to end ongoing family feud'. The once close-knit Beckham family has been thrown into turmoil in recent months, amid claims Brooklyn has become increasingly estranged from his famous parents after failing to attend any of his father 50th birthday celebrations in May. It was also revealed that Brooklyn and Nicola's Instagram accounts no longer follow his younger brothers in the latest family drama. Meanwhile amid their trip Nicola gushed and branded her hunky husband 'her everything' Sir Elton, who has been friends with the Beckhams for three decades, reportedly took the opportunity to 'say his piece' about the feud as he wined and dined the young couple. According to The Sun, Sir Elton 'briefly' spoke about the family's feud in the hope Brooklyn would patch things up with his parents, and footage of the outing shared on social media showed the pair shaking hands. Speaking about Elton's attempts to play peacekeeper in the row, a source said: 'Elton is the showbiz equivalent of Switzerland. He's utterly neutral in this row. 'Elton of old may have relished in taking sides - in this case his young godson, Brooklyn - but two years off his 80th birthday, he's a man who has seen and done it all. He just wants everyone to be happy. 'There is no side-taking as such; he simply adores his godson, and really has a laugh with Nicola who he thinks has a great sense of humour. He wants to look after them in his role as 'spiritual adviser' as a godfather, it's a role he takes seriously. 'Elton and David think the situation is terribly sad, and has gently suggested to all involved that life is short - to patch things up.' The source added Elton is 'adamant he doesn't want to stick his nose in' the feud, he just simply 'wants peace'. Sir Elton is also said to have generously picked up the entire bill, after dining on the restaurant's signature lobster linguine which comes in at an eye-watering £190. Brooklyn enjoyed a workout on the multi-million pound super Superyacht Nicola shared a slew of final holiday snaps from the couple's lavish trip before heading home to the US. In a snap shared to her Instagram Stories Nicola threw her arms around Brooklyn's neck as they smooched while watching a sunset. She later stunned in a black mini dress as she strutted her stuff on the dance floor before enjoying a lavish fireworks display. The heiress later showcased her jaw-dropping figure as she headed ashore and turned heads in a Chanel crop top which she teamed with a fluffy shrug, despite the scorching weather. Meanwhile another source has claimed that Nicola and Brooklyn will not feature in his mother forthcoming documentary series. The former Spice Girl will take centre stage in a new Netflix docuseries about her day-to-day life as creative director of the eponymous fashion and beauty brand she originally launched in 2008. The source told The Sun: 'The children hardly feature — it's simply not a case of Brooklyn and Nicola being cut, as they weren't in it to start with. 'This is very much a project focussing on Victoria's transaction from pop star to businesswoman and designer.'

Brooklyn Beckham sparks debate with lavish holiday
Brooklyn Beckham, the son of David and Victoria Beckham, has caused a divide by going on a lavish holiday. The 26-year-old is the eldest son of Victoria and David Beckham and is famously married to billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz-Beckham. As one does when marrying into a billionaire dynasty, he has reportedly been spending time in Europe on Project X, an $85 million superyacht that costs $1.2 million per week to charter. There's even been some photos of him sauntering around on deck, looking very tattooed and trying to slip in some promo for his hot sauce brand while he whizzes around on a jetski. It isn't just candid shots that are making the rounds; Brooklyn and his heiress wife have been posting up a storm on social media. The couple enjoying their lavish vacation, though, hasn't gone down well with everyone, actually some people are offended by it. The eldest Beckham offspring couldn't just post his holiday photos in peace, sure some people called him and his wife 'stunning' but others were arguing over if he deserved such a fancy retreat. One claimed the photos came across as 'spoiled', another said Brooklyn's holiday was simply a sign of 'too much money', and lots of people touched on Brooklyn's ever-changing career path. 'They seem bored like they have absolutely nothing to do,' one claimed. 'This is what happens when people don't have jobs,' another claimed. 'Brooklyn do you have a job?' another asked. 'The caption being 'forever summer' …..Like yeah babe, you're both unemployed,' someone else joked. 'I would suggest you both take a year out, do charity work in a remote place, and find your grounding,' another remarked. Brooklyn who has over 16 million followers on social media describes himself as an 'entrepreneur' which is deeply true, the man is not afraid to take a career risk. Over the years, he has gained notoriety for his attempts to forge his own path to varying degrees of success. When he was 18, he released a photography book featuring a blurry photo of an elephant and a caption explaining that the photo wasn't very good because elephants are 'so hard to photograph'. Three years later, he decided to ditch photography and he became a chef. He didn't do anything drastic like go to TAFE or work in a kitchen; instead, he appeared on a morning breakfast show in the UK, called himself a 'foodie,' and then gave a lengthy tutorial on making bacon, egg, and sausage sandwiches. In 2022, Brooklyn decided to give the role of bartender a crack and described himself as a 'nutter in the kitchen' and then made a standard gin and tonic, leaving the internet cackling at his expense. He has kept at the whole cooking thing and went viral in 2023 because he posted a video on his Instagram showing him using a blowtorch to make a grilled cheese sandwich, which fans thought was slightly overkill. In 2024, he went viral when Nicola revealed that she fired Brooklyn for his cameo role in her directorial debut, Lola. 'He had one line, 'Hi,' but he kept saying it in a British accent, and he was staring directly into the camera. I was like, 'oh God, we have to move on, good Lord',' she said. Brooklyn has now pivoted to small business owner and has launched his own hot sauce line called Cloud23.

3 arrested for promoting illegal car meets in Philadelphia, police say
Three people have recently been arrested in connection with car meets that took over streets in Philadelphia with cars doing donuts and large crowds of spectators filming the action, police said Tuesday. The three arrested, all men, are accused of participating in and promoting the car meets, dating back as far as Feb. 14, 2025 – the day of the Eagles' Super Bowl parade. Among those arrested is 19-year-old Laurel, Maryland, resident Yariel Fuentes-Reyes, who police previously alleged was responsible for an illegal car rally on Feb. 14. A Maryland State Police task force working with Philadelphia police arrested Fuentes-Reyes on July 3, 2025, in his hometown in connection with the February car rally. In Tuesday's announcements, police also alleged Fuentes-Reyes was involved in car meets on April 19 and June 15. About two weeks after Fuentes-Reyes' arrest, on July 16, police arrested 21-year-old Serge Youayou of New Castle, Delaware, on the 400 block of North Broad Street. Police say he was involved in car meets that took place on Feb. 14, May 30 and June 15. Then on July 23, police arrested 21-year-old Henry Ramos on the 1300 block of Magee Avenue, in the Oxford Circle section of Northeast Philadelphia. Ramos was involved in car meets on May 31, June 15 and July 4, according to police. All three men are charged with aggravated assault, criminal conspiracy, causing or risking catastrophe, rioting and other offenses. In May, Philadelphia police announced they formed an investigative group to track down the promoters and drivers involved with car meets in the city. Investigators use social media to find events that are advertised and the vehicles that took part in the events. At that time, police said they had made progress on arrests from the major "Project X" meetup in September 2024, bringing in more than 50 vehicles and placing 27 people in custody for that car meet. More details about the car meets Youayou, Fuentes-Reyes and Ramos were accused of organizing, were not immediately available, and none were accused of involvement in Project X.

Brooklyn Beckham issues 'financial flex' over dad David as he cosies up to father-in-law
Hot sauce founder Brooklyn Beckham has been holidaying with his wife Nicola Peltz's family as he keeps his distance from his famous parents David and Victoria Beckham Brooklyn Beckham's fallout with his famous mum and dad shows no signs of slowing down as he appears to reap the benefits of his billionaire father-in-law. The hot sauce founder, 26, has been locked in a family fallout with David and Victoria Beckham as he continued to stand with his wife Nicola Peltz. Things haven't been rosy between the Beckhams since Brooklyn and Nicola skipped David's 50th birthday celebrations in May. Brooklyn went on to issue a series of snubs when it came to Father's Day and David's long awaited knighthood achievment. The fallout seems to have spilled down the family as both Brooklyn's younger brothers Romeo and Cruz have unfollowed him on social media. Brooklyn appears to be surrounding himself with his in-laws amid the drama and has even headed on holiday with them. He sailed into Saint-Tropez on a £85million, 80 metre yacht called Project X as he lapped up the luxury getaway. It had been rented by Nicola's parents, Nelson and Claudia Peltz, and set them back a staggering £1.2million a week. Brooklyn avoided a run in with his parents as they arrived in the same French dock just two days later - which he reportedly was unaware of. They turned up on a £16million, 40 metre vessel named Seven. 'Brooklyn's yacht dwarfs the one owned by David and Victoria. It's a financial flex," a source told the Sun. 'Their relationship is beyond soured now but Brooklyn has really landed on his feet. "Nicola and her parents, Nelson and Claudia, are his family now. And he's clearly enjoying the spoils.' David and Victoria, who own their yacht that's half the size of Brooklyn's in-laws rented boat, are in Saint-Tropez with their sons Romeo and Cruz as well as daughter Harper. However, a source told the Mirror that Brooklyn was unaware that David and Victoria were arriving in Saint-Tropez two days later. They added the couple had a lovely time and enjoyed the hospitality provided by Nelson. Brooklyn, meanwhile, has been keen to share snaps of his own trip as he drank a bottle of beer next to Nelson. One moment showed Brooklyn leaning towards Nelson, who had his arm around his son-in-law, whilst another showed the in-laws embraced in a hug by a table. Brooklyn has attracted attention over spending time with his in-laws lately amid claims he "doesn't really feel like he fits into" his own family. A source told the Mirror that he's also grown "so close" to Nicola's family. They said: "He just doesn't feel his family have treated Nicola well and now that he's grown so close to her family in the States, he doesn't really feel like he fits into the Beckham family right now." Amid rumours of tension between Brooklyn and his parents, he is said to have met up with godfather Sir Elton John, who tried to act as "peacemaker". He is said to have caught up with Brooklyn and Nicola over lunch in Cannes. Elton is said to "adore" Brooklyn and have a "laugh" with Nicola, who he believes has a "great" sense of humour. A source told the Sun: "[Elton's] utterly neutral in this row. Elton and David think the situation is terribly sad, and has gently suggested to all involved that life is short - and to patch things up." The source said that the group had a "really fun long lunch" despite the tough conversation.
