Romeo Beckham 'Likes' Instagram Post Blaming Nicola Peltz in Family Feud
Romeo Beckham has subtly entered the fray of his family's ongoing public dispute by 'liking' an Instagram post that explicitly states 'Nicola Peltz is the problem' in the estrangement between his brother Brooklyn and their parents, David and Victoria Beckham. This digital gesture offers a rare glimpse into the internal dynamics of the Beckham clan, which has been publicly torn apart in recent weeks following Brooklyn's explosive six-page statement.
Brooklyn's Accusations and Family Fallout
The feud escalated dramatically when Brooklyn Beckham issued a lengthy declaration, accusing his parents of 'controlling' him and attempting to sabotage his marriage to actress Nicola Peltz. In his statement, Brooklyn claimed he has no wish to reconcile with his family, detailing grievances ranging from last-minute wedding dress cancellations to inappropriate behavior at his nuptials. While most family members have maintained a stoic silence, Romeo's recent social media activity suggests underlying tensions.
Romeo's Subtle Social Media Swipe
Previously, Romeo appeared to take a veiled jab at Brooklyn in a TikTok video with the caption: 'Imagine hating and we're just here like.' However, his 'like' on influencer Ash Cantley's Instagram video represents a more direct indication of his stance. In the video, Cantley argues that Victoria and David are trying to 'rescue' their son from a controlling relationship, alleging that Nicola forced Brooklyn to make his public statement and has a pattern of isolating partners from their families.
Influencer's Analysis and Family Dynamics
Ash Cantley's video delves deep into the family drama, suggesting that Nicola Peltz's past relationship with Anwar Hadid—who also cut off his family for three years—indicates a troubling pattern. Cantley claims that privately, sources close to Victoria describe her as 'devastated' by the rift, while portraying David and Victoria as 'grounded adults' caught in a difficult situation. The influencer concludes that Brooklyn may regret his public stance if his marriage to Nicola ends, as he will likely seek reconciliation with his family.
Wider Family and Friend Reactions
The feud has extended beyond immediate family, affecting long-standing friendships. Brooklyn recently unfollowed celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, a close family friend and godfather to his sister Harper, after Ramsay advised him not to 'forget where he came from.' Ramsay, in interviews, has expressed concern over Brooklyn's 'infatuation' with Nicola but maintains hope that 'the penny will drop' and Brooklyn will recognize his parents' support. Notably, Brooklyn has also blocked Ramsay's children on social media, though he still follows Ramsay's wife, Tana.
Brooklyn's Grievances and Future Implications
Brooklyn's statement outlines numerous specific complaints, including accusations that his parents prioritized 'Brand Beckham' over family relationships, attempted to bribe him into signing away rights to his name before his wedding, and created humiliating moments at his marriage celebration. He emphasized that stepping away from his family has alleviated his lifelong anxiety, allowing him and Nicola to seek 'peace, privacy and happiness.' As the feud continues to unfold publicly, Romeo's social media endorsement of anti-Nicola sentiments hints at deeper familial divisions that may persist.
