Social Media Drama: Cruz Beckham Sets the Record Straight

Cruz Beckham, the youngest son of David and Victoria Beckham, recently addressed rumors about his family's social media activity. He took to Instagram Stories to clarify that his parents did not unfollow his brother, Brooklyn Beckham. Instead, Cruz claimed that they, along with himself, were blocked by someone on the platform. This controversy came to light when an article suggested that David and Victoria had stopped following Brooklyn amid speculation of a family feud. Cruz quickly denied these claims, stating that his parents would never unfollow their son. He also shared a screenshot of the article in question, adding, "They woke up blocked. . . as did I. " Instagram's features make it tricky to notice when someone blocks you. Users can still see likes and comments on posts from the person who blocked them, which might have contributed to the confusion. Reports indicated that Brooklyn no longer follows his parents, and his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, also does not follow them.The Beckham family has been the subject of various rumors and speculation over the past few years. In May, Brooklyn and Nicola skipped David's 50th birthday celebrations in London. A source claimed that the couple chose not to attend because Romeo's girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, who was previously linked to Brooklyn, would be present. However, Cruz refuted these dating rumors, and another source confirmed that Brooklyn and Kim never dated. Tensions within the family reportedly began around the time of Brooklyn and Nicola's wedding in 2022. There were allegations that Nicola chose not to wear a dress designed by Victoria for the ceremony, despite initially agreeing to do so. While one source confirmed the rift rumors, another insider denied the dress situation, calling it "far from the truth. " Despite the speculation, David and Victoria have not publicly addressed the reasons behind the apparent social media distance from Brooklyn. Representatives for the family members involved did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
