Brooklyn Beckham has shared intimate bedroom photos with wife Nicola Peltz as his parents cruise the Mediterranean without him.
The aspiring chef, 27, posted the loved-up snaps on Instagram Friday, showing himself pretending to sleep while taking a selfie as Peltz, 31, laid across his chest with their two dogs lounging alongside them in bed. He also included solo shots of himself cuddling the pooches under the covers.
The bedroom post landed while his estranged family sailed the Mediterranean aboard their luxury yacht, Seven. David Beckham, 51, has been documenting the sun-kissed holiday on his Instagram Stories, including a family dinner at Felicia’s Country House on the Amalfi Coast. “Perfect family dinner at @feliciascountryhouse,” he captioned the group photo, which included wife Victoria, 52, sons Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 21, daughter Harper, 15, Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnbull, and David’s mother Sandra.
The retired soccer star also shared a nostalgic video of Victoria walking into the Portofino Hotel 97. “29 years ago we came to portofino to this hotel before anyone knew we were dating and here we are back again,” he wrote, adding a blue heart emoji. Additional posts showed David kissing Victoria and photos of his other children.
Brooklyn narrowly avoided an awkward run-in earlier this month when he and Peltz were vacationing near his parents in Saint Tropez.
The public rift burst open in January when Brooklyn posted a searing message on Instagram about his family. “I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he wrote. “I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life. For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family.”
He continued with specific allegations about his wedding to Peltz. “In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me,” he recalled. “She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everybody. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”
Brooklyn also alleged his parents pressured and “attempted to bribe” him into “signing away the rights to his name” ahead of their flashy Florida nuptials. Rumors of bad blood had circulated for months before his public statement.
The couple’s Florida wedding in 2022 was a high-profile affair that reportedly cost millions, with Marc Anthony performing and 500 guests in attendance. What was meant to be a romantic first dance between newlyweds became, in Brooklyn’s telling, a moment of public humiliation orchestrated by his mother.
David and Victoria have not publicly responded to Brooklyn’s allegations, continuing instead to present a united family front on social media. Their Mediterranean cruise has featured multiple generations of Beckhams, with Brooklyn conspicuously absent from the narrative.
The hot sauce entrepreneur, who has pursued cooking after abandoning photography and soccer ambitions, appears to be building a separate life with Peltz and their pets. His recent posts emphasize domestic intimacy with his wife while his parents emphasize traditional family togetherness on holiday.
Brooklyn’s Valentine’s Day post with Peltz drew attention earlier this year for its intimate nature, continuing a pattern of public displays that some observers have found uncomfortable given the ongoing family estrangement.
