David and Victoria Beckham appeared determined to show solidarity as fresh tensions with their eldest son Brooklyn Beckham continued to dominate headlines.
The famous couple stepped out for a family dinner at Nobu Malibu after representatives for Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, accused them of staging Harper Beckham’s recent attempt to visit her brother’s Los Angeles home.
Harper, 14, had travelled to the United States to support her father, Sir David Beckham, as he received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. During the trip, she reportedly stopped by Brooklyn’s Beverly Hills property, arriving unexpectedly before leaving moments later without seeing him.
According to reports, Harper had hoped to help repair the ongoing family rift and was said to have personally delivered a letter during the brief visit.
However, representatives for Brooklyn and Nicola insisted the incident had been orchestrated.
“That photographers were in place as the letter was hand delivered says it all – this was choreographed for the cameras,” a spokesperson for the couple said.
Those claims were quickly rejected by people close to the Beckham family.
“This is clearly nonsense and just another untrue and unfair accusation,” a family source responded.
Amid the fallout, David, 51, and Victoria, 52, were photographed arriving at Nobu Malibu alongside son Romeo Beckham, 23, and his girlfriend Kim Turnbull, 25.
Romeo has continued to stand firmly beside his parents throughout the highly publicised dispute involving his older brother.
Shortly after news emerged of Harper’s unsuccessful attempt to see him, Brooklyn shared a photograph of himself jogging in New York City, indicating he was not in Los Angeles at the time.
Sources previously told Page Six that Brooklyn and Nicola, who married in 2022, had been out of town together when Harper arrived at the property.
The latest disagreement comes months after Brooklyn launched a series of explosive accusations against his family on social media, claiming he had spent much of his life feeling controlled.
“I grew up with overwhelming anxiety. For the first time in my life, since stepping away from my family, that anxiety has disappeared,” Brooklyn wrote.
“I wake up every morning grateful for the life I chose, and have found peace and relief.”
He also accused his parents of shaping public narratives surrounding the family.
“My parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family. The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into,” he claimed.
In another striking statement, Brooklyn insisted he had no desire to rebuild ties with his relatives.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life,” he said.
The tensions were again highlighted this week when Brooklyn failed to publicly acknowledge David’s Hollywood Walk of Fame honour.
During his emotional speech at the ceremony, David praised his family and became tearful while speaking about his children.
“My beautiful children who are the reason I get out of bed in the morning,” he said.
Fighting back emotion, the football legend added: “Kids, I hope you bring my grandchildren here one day and tell them about a boy who dreamed big.”
Later, David declined to discuss the ongoing dispute publicly, insisting the situation remained a private family matter.
Friends close to the Beckhams have previously revealed that David and Victoria were left devastated by the allegations made by their eldest son, with the rift showing little sign of healing despite Harper’s reported efforts to bring the family back together.
