Romeo Beckham's Social Media Activity Fuels Beckham Family Feud
Romeo Beckham has publicly endorsed a critical view of his sister-in-law, Nicola Peltz, by liking a social media post that brands her as "the problem" in the ongoing and highly publicised feud within the Beckham family. This digital gesture adds a new layer of tension to the discord that has been simmering since Nicola married Brooklyn Beckham in 2022.
Escalating Tensions and Public Statements
The conflict reached a new low last month when Brooklyn Beckham, the eldest son of Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham, took to Instagram to angrily confront his family. In his statement, Brooklyn asserted that he has "been silent for years" and accused his parents of controlling narratives in the press, leaving him with "no choice" but to speak out. He firmly stated, "I do not want to reconcile with my family," and denied being controlled, emphasising that he is "standing up for myself for the first time in my life."
Sources close to the budding chef have strongly denied allegations that he is being manipulated by his wife, but the public airing of grievances has captivated media attention.
Romeo's Subtle Yet Significant Dig
Romeo Beckham, the 23-year-old footballer and model, has now entered the fray by liking a post from social media content creator Ash Cantley. In her post, Cantley retracted previous comments, explicitly stating, "Nicola is the problem." She elaborated, suggesting that Nicola forced Brooklyn to make his statement and criticised Nicola's character, referencing Victoria Beckham's past interview remarks about being a "girls girl" and implying Nicola does not meet that standard.
Cantley further speculated on the dynamics, saying, "I imagine that relationship to be very controlling, very isolating," and noted that Nicola's reputation has suffered, with friends like Selena Gomez reportedly distancing themselves. She concluded by advising David and Victoria to tolerate Nicola for their son's sake, despite any personal dislikes.
Historical Context and Previous Incidents
This is not the first time Romeo has taken a swipe at his older brother. Previously, he and his brother Cruz shared a now-deleted TikTok video with their girlfriends, captioned, "Imagine hating, and we're just here like," which was widely interpreted as a dig at Brooklyn. The feud's roots trace back to reports that Victoria Beckham withdrew from designing Nicola's wedding dress at the last minute, though it was later revealed Nicola had already been working with Valentino on her gown.
The Mirror has approached Romeo's spokesperson for comment, but no response has been provided at this time. As the family drama continues to unfold publicly, it highlights the intense scrutiny and pressures faced by high-profile families in the entertainment world.
