Brooklyn Beckham has issued a seemingly pointed response to his family via social media, following revelations that he has blocked his relatives on Instagram. The 26-year-old's latest move adds another chapter to the ongoing public saga within the famous footballing dynasty.
The TikTok Retort Set to Lady Gaga
In the aftermath of his younger brother Cruz addressing the family rift online, a new video surfaced on the TikTok account for Brooklyn's hot sauce brand, Cloud 23. The short clip features Brooklyn walking down a city street in slow motion, soundtracked by Lady Gaga's hit song Telephone.
The specific lyric 'Sorry I cannot hear you, I’m kinda busy' is prominently highlighted with on-screen text, a choice many interpreted as a direct retort. The video then cuts to a montage of Brooklyn cooking and enjoying food, with a bottle of his sauce—named for his father David's iconic number 23 jersey—clearly visible.
Cruz Beckham's Denial and the Blocking Revelation
This visual statement came shortly after Cruz Beckham, 20, took to his own Instagram to refute claims that his parents had unfollowed Brooklyn. 'NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son… Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked… as did I,' he wrote on December 25, 2025.
It is now confirmed that Brooklyn no longer follows any of his immediate family members on Instagram, including father Sir David Beckham, 50, mother Lady Victoria Beckham, 51, and siblings Romeo, 23, Cruz, and Harper, 14. He does, however, still follow his grandparents, aunts, and uncles.
A Feud Months in the Making
The tensions have been brewing publicly since May, when Brooklyn and his wife, actress Nicola Peltz, 30, were notably absent from David's 50th birthday celebrations. Reports suggest the situation was inadvertently escalated when Victoria 'liked' a video of Brooklyn roasting a chicken on Instagram just days before he blocked the family.
A source explained to Metro that Victoria's gesture was meant as a pre-Christmas olive branch, but it seemingly backfired. 'She had no idea it would lead to this fallout,' the source said, adding that Cruz and Romeo are 'just as hurt' by being cut off.
While the Beckham and Peltz families have remained publicly silent, friends of Brooklyn and Nicola suggest they 'just want peace' and have asked David and Victoria to 'back off'. They view the ongoing social media narrative as 'manipulation' that drives the couple further away.
Christmas Posts From Opposite Sides
The family divide was starkly illustrated by their separate Christmas Eve posts. Victoria shared candid family snaps, including one of David laughing with sons Romeo and Cruz in Santa hats. Meanwhile, Brooklyn posted a picture of his and Nicola's clasped hands on his Instagram Stories, captioned 'My everything x'.
As the new year approaches, the Beckham family rift shows no immediate signs of healing, with Brooklyn's latest TikTok offering a cryptic but potent commentary on the situation.
