Brooklyn Beckham's Cryptic Instagram Post About Choosing Nicola Peltz Sparks Criticism

A seemingly heartfelt Instagram post from Brooklyn Beckham professing his love for wife Nicola Peltz has stirred backlash online, with fans accusing him of taking a veiled swipe at his family amid ongoing rumors of a rift.

Brooklyn Beckham's latest Instagram post has reignited speculation about a rift between him and his famous parents, David and Victoria Beckham. The 26-year-old's message, which many interpreted as a subtle dig at his family, drew sharp criticism from fans online.

The post featured a video of Brooklyn riding a motorcycle with his wife, actress Nicola Peltz. Though the video appeared innocent, it was the caption that stirred controversy.

"My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you’re the most amazing person I know xx me and you forever baby❤️❤️ [sic]," he wrote. The seemingly romantic declaration struck a nerve with followers who interpreted it as a pointed message to his family.

"Don't forget your beautiful parents who will always love you unconditionally," one netizen commented. Another added, "Real love doesn't make you choose. Why can't you love your wife AND your family 🤷‍♀️ I hope whatever is going on can be resolved 🫂🙏."

Some comments were more direct in their disapproval. "Devastated for Victoria 😮😢 cruel to so publicly denounce your parents, a good wife would be trying to reconcile you not divide you, [sic]" one wrote. Another follower said, "Bro forgot where he got his money and fame from 😂," while one netizen added, "Brooklyn you really need to grow a pair. You are not a teenager. This is a bit pathetic. Shame on you for deliberately causing maximum pain and humiliation to your parents who have given you everything."

Tensions appeared to escalate after Brooklyn and Nicola were noticeably absent from David Beckham's star-studded 50th birthday celebration earlier this month. The event was attended by A-list celebrities and all other Beckham children, making Brooklyn and Nicola's absence even more glaring.

Shortly after Brooklyn's post, his younger brother Cruz Beckham appeared to respond indirectly by sharing a family photo on his Instagram Story. He included a heartfelt message expressing gratitude to their parents for all they've done.

Reports have circulated for months about Brooklyn's strained relationship with his family. Though he occasionally visits London, insiders claim he does not inform his family and quickly returns to the U.S. once his engagements are complete.

Adding fuel to the speculation is an older rumor pointing to a source of conflict: Brooklyn's younger brother Romeo's relationship with model Kim Turnbull, who reportedly once dated Brooklyn. Some suggest this may have contributed to tensions between the siblings.
