Cruz Beckham Emulates Brother Brooklyn with Culinary Video Post
Cruz Beckham, the 21-year-old singer, took inspiration from his older brother Brooklyn on Friday by sharing a video of himself preparing a homemade soup. The aspiring chef Brooklyn, aged 27, frequently posts culinary content on social media and previously hosted a Facebook series titled 'Cookin' with Brooklyn'. Despite their estrangement, Cruz demonstrated that his brother's passion for cooking has influenced him, as he eagerly showcased his own kitchen abilities.
Humorous TikTok Clip Highlights Cheesy Potato Soup Creation
Cruz utilized TikTok to document the process of making a cheesy potato soup, topped with crispy bacon bits. Although the final dish appeared unappealing visually, Cruz maintained a lighthearted attitude. He captioned the video with self-deprecating humor: 'wanna see the best cooking video ever? Don’t watch this then.' In the comments section, he later clarified that while the soup looked 'gross', it tasted 'decent'. Additionally, Cruz reposted the video on Instagram, playfully cautioning family friend and renowned chef Gordon Ramsay to 'watch out'.
Family Tensions Surface Amid Birthday Celebrations
Last week, Cruz expressed a desire to reconcile with Brooklyn after extending birthday wishes. The Beckham family collectively celebrated Brooklyn's 27th birthday on Wednesday, but their public posts went unacknowledged. When questioned by a TMZ reporter about the fallout while out with his girlfriend Jackie Apostel, Cruz simply said 'Happy Birthday' and indicated he hoped to mend the fractured relationship. Brooklyn reportedly felt 'disheartened' by his parents' public birthday tributes, which violated a communication agreement established after a bitter falling out.
David and Victoria Beckham were the first to share birthday messages, using childhood photos and affectionate nicknames. Victoria posted a photo with Brooklyn accompanied by love hearts. An insider revealed to ET that Brooklyn aims to cease all contact attempts from his parents, including on social media, describing their actions as 'performative public actions'. Last summer, Brooklyn and his wife Nicola issued a legal letter requesting correspondence through lawyers.
Mixed Responses from Siblings and Grandparents
Brooklyn did not publicly acknowledge Cruz's 21st birthday last week or respond to his birthday message this week. However, Cruz set aside their differences by posting a loving birthday message on Instagram, featuring a childhood photo and the words 'I love you'. Brother Romeo, aged 23, shared a throwback snap without a caption. Grandparents Ted and Hilary Beckham also posted birthday tributes, including photos of Brooklyn's wife Nicola, and expressed hopes for a 'fabulous day'. Recent reports suggest Brooklyn remains in regular contact with his grandparents, though estranged from his parents.
