Cruz Beckham Sparks Mystery by Deleting Cryptic Video Targeting Brother Brooklyn
The ongoing saga within the Beckham family has taken another intriguing turn, as Cruz Beckham has mysteriously deleted a video from his TikTok account that many interpreted as a pointed dig at his estranged brother, Brooklyn. This action has fuelled further speculation and mystery surrounding the very public rift that has engulfed the famous family.
The Deleted Video and Its Content
Earlier this week, Cruz, alongside his brother Romeo and their respective girlfriends, Jackie Apostel and Kim Turnbull, filmed a brief clip while in a car in Paris. The video was captioned with the phrase, "Imagine hating and we're just here like." This was widely perceived by fans and observers as a subtle, yet clear, reference to the escalating feud with their eldest sibling, Brooklyn.
The timing was particularly significant, coming just days after Brooklyn posted what has been described as a "nuclear" statement on social media. In that explosive post, he made serious allegations against his parents, David and Victoria, labelling them as "controlling", and claimed his brothers had been "sent to attack [him] on social media" before he blocked their accounts.
Fan Reactions and Divided Loyalties
Before Cruz removed the video, the comment section became a battleground for fan allegiance. Supporters quickly divided into "Team Brooklyn" or "Brand Beckham", debating the siblings' conduct.
- One commenter advised against taking sides, stating, "As a parent, if I had a row with one of my kids, I wouldn't expect or allow their siblings to take sides."
- Another defended Cruz and Romeo's actions, arguing, "Pretty sure Brooklyn's arguments have been aimed at his brothers as well. So he picks the side first!"
The exact reason for the video's deletion remains unknown, adding another layer of intrigue to the situation.
A History of Subtle Swipes
This is not the first instance where Cruz has appeared to make a veiled reference to the family discord. Previously, he posted an Instagram Story thanking fans for buying tickets to his concerts, but used a picture of scrambled eggs to do so. This was interpreted by many as a subtle jab at Brooklyn's much-discussed amateur chef videos on the platform.
Furthermore, the story featured a snippet of his mother Victoria's song "Who Do You Think You Are?", with lyrics including "What's driving you is ambition". This was seen as a dual gesture: a show of support for Victoria and another indirect criticism aimed at Brooklyn.
The Context of Brooklyn's Allegations
Brooklyn's original statement contained a series of serious claims that have rocked the family's public image. He accused his parents of attempting to "ruin" his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz, and alleged they tried to "bribe" him into signing away the rights to his name.
He specifically targeted his mother, Victoria, claiming she withdrew from making Nicola's wedding dress at the "eleventh hour" and that she "hijacked" his first dance with Nicola to dance "very inappropriately" on him.
Family Gatherings Amid the Turmoil
Despite the very public accusations, the family has been seen together recently. Cruz and Romeo were in Paris for Fashion Week, where they were later joined by David and Victoria, who attended so Victoria could collect an award. The entire family unit turned out to support her in one of her first public appearances since Brooklyn's allegations surfaced, presenting a united front amidst the ongoing private turmoil.
The deletion of Cruz's video ensures that the mystery and public fascination with the Beckham family dynamics will continue, as every social media move is scrutinised for clues about their fractured relationships.
