Brooklyn Beckham was seen looking visibly tense as he took a phone call outside the Sunset Plaza Hotel in West Hollywood on Friday evening, adding yet another layer of intrigue to the Beckham family’s ongoing feud.
The 27-year-old, who has been estranged from his parents David and Victoria Beckham, appeared agitated as he paced back and forth, gesturing animatedly during the lengthy conversation. Dressed casually in a black T-shirt, jeans, a Nike baseball cap and chunky leather boots, Brooklyn cut a laid-back figure — but his body language told a very different story.
The sighting comes just months after Brooklyn released a bombshell six-page statement in January, making it clear he had no intention of reconciling with his family — a move that reportedly left David and Victoria devastated.
And now, fans believe tensions may have been reignited once again — this time by his wife, Nicola Peltz.
The actress, 31, recently sparked speculation after sharing a striking mirror selfie on Instagram Stories, where she showed off her flexibility by performing the splits. The post came after months of intense ballet training and a strict diet for her upcoming film Prima, which reportedly saw her weight drop to under 100 pounds (45kg).
While Nicola appeared proud of her physical transformation, eagle-eyed fans were quick to suggest the post may have carried a hidden message — with many speculating it was a subtle swipe at her mother-in-law Victoria Beckham.
Victoria, 51, is famously known for her signature pose — lifting one leg high into the air while reclining — a move she first showcased in a now-iconic 2016 Instagram post. At the time, she credited her ballet training, joking that “those ballet classes are paying off” as she effortlessly held the pose.
The parallels between Nicola’s post and Victoria’s long-standing signature look didn’t go unnoticed, fuelling further speculation that the already strained family dynamic may have taken another hit.
Earlier this month, Brooklyn also raised eyebrows when he appeared to snub Victoria on Mother’s Day, choosing instead to publicly celebrate his mother-in-law, Claudia Heffner Peltz.
Sharing a photo of himself with Nicola and Claudia, he wrote: “Happy birthday to the best mother-in-law. Love u so much and hope u had the most amazing day.” The timing — just days after Claudia’s actual birthday — only added to the sense that the gesture was deliberate.
With public moments like these continuing to unfold, the Beckham family rift shows no sign of healing — and Brooklyn’s tense phone call may be just the latest glimpse into a private drama that refuses to stay behind closed doors.
