Brooklyn Beckham’s Biting Accusations Against Parents Under Fire As Fans Spot Major Contradiction
Brooklyn Beckham may have tried to set the record straight in a scathing six-page statement accusing his family of manipulation and mistreatment, but fans aren’t buying it.
As the statement circulated widely online after being posted to the eldest Beckham’s Instagram Stories on Monday, January 19, social media sleuths were quick to accuse him of lying, insisting his own words don’t add up.
Highlights
- Brooklyn Beckham’s explosive statement accusing his parents of sabotaging his marriage is now under scrutiny, as fans claim key details don’t add up.
- A major contradiction emerged over Nicola Peltz Beckham’s wedding dress, fueling claims that Brooklyn’s account may not align with past reports.
- As online sleuths dissected screenshots and past interviews, the Beckham family feud reached new heights, splitting public opinion over who’s telling the truth.
The 26-year-old revealed that the ongoing public rift between his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, has been brewing since around his wedding to Nicola Peltz Beckham in April 2022.
“Within hours after he lets his truth be known, we’re exposed to the real truth, which is… that he’s being manipulated into hating his parents over lies…lies that he’s embracing…” reacted one social media user.

Yesterday, the estranged eldest child of David and Victoria Beckham detailed the years-long tension between family members.
Brooklyn Beckham alleged that his mother was the main reason for the fallout, accusing her and his father of trying to “ruin my marriage.”
“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 in his statement, cryptically alluding to accusations that sources close to the Beckhams made last year.

In a series of “nasty” media briefings regarding Nicola Peltz Beckham, those sources allegedly depicted Brooklyn as a “hostage” who was being “controlled” by his wife.
Brooklyn also alleged that Victoria cancelled making Nicola’s wedding dress at the “eleventh hour,” writing in his statement, “My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped.”
“My mum cancelled making Nicola’s dress in the eleventh hour, despite how excited she was to wear her design, forcing her to urgently find a new dress.”

This claim, in particular, did not sit well with the internet, with many pointing out that multiple media outlets had previously reported that Nicola herself decided not to wear her mother-in-law’s design and instead opted for a Valentino wedding gown.
One user on X highlighted what they called contradicting information, sharing screenshots of Vogue’s coverage of Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding, which detailed how her wedding dress actually came to be in a story published on April 11, 2022.
“My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped,” claimed the 26-year-old aspiring chef

In the Vogue report, it was stated that, “Peltz’s custom wedding look is the culmination of a year’s worth of conversations with Valentino creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli’s team, two trips to the Rome HQ and two US fittings…”
The original poster labelled Brooklyn a “liar” over his claims, writing in the caption, “Lie. Liars will be caught out, Brooklyn!”
Another user echoed the same sentiment, commenting, “These two are as useless and boring as Harry and Meghan. All spoiled brats who have nothing better to do than leak to the press to whine about their privileged lives.”

“At Vogue it said she had 1 year to prepare her dress. So, who is lying,” added a third.
“The statement said they ‘urgently’ found another designer in the ‘11th hour.’ They met with this designer for over a year- it’s a lie!”
However, some users gave the benefit of the doubt to the 26-year-old chef, noting that celebrity weddings often involve multiple dress changes.

One person defended Brooklyn against the “lie” accusations, writing, “Maybe he wasn’t referring to the ceremony dress; brides often have multiple dresses.”
Another added, “Bruh you don’t understand weddings of that caliber do you? The bride wears multiple different dresses… I get that most ppl don’t get that and it might seem unimportant but just bc you’re not familiar with something or you don’t understand something doesn’t make it any less important.”

“I doubt it. His mother hijacked the wedding; she’s a vile creature.”
Brooklyn further alleged that during the wedding planning process, his mother went so far as to call him “evil” for wanting to seat his grandmother Sandra and Nicola’s grandmother Naunni at the couple’s table, explaining that he wanted to do so because both women had lost their husbands.
He also claimed that the night before the wedding, his parents disrespected Nicola by telling him she was “not blood” and “not family.”

“Since the moment I started standing up for myself with my family, I’ve received endless attacks from my parents, both privately and publicly, that were sent to the press on their orders,” he continued.
The statement came on the heels of a Daily Mail report published on January 8, which revealed that Brooklyn had sent his parents a scathing legal notice in the summer of 2025.

According to reports, the aspiring chef asked his parents not to contact him directly and to communicate only through their lawyers.
He also requested that they refrain from making public statements about him on social media or tagging him in posts.
The move appeared to coincide with reports that Brooklyn and Nicola were absent from David’s 50th birthday celebrations and other family events in May last year.
The latest accusations came just weeks after it was alleged that Brooklyn had sent his parents a legal letter, as the family feud reportedly reached its breaking point

Moreover, in August 2025, the pair renewed their vows in a ceremony from which Brooklyn’s family was completely absent.
Addressing the decision to renew his vows with Nicola just three years into their marriage, Brooklyn alleged in his recent statement that it was done to “create new memories,” claiming that during the couple’s 2022 wedding, his mother had “danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone” at a moment meant to be a “romantic dance” with his wife instead.

“My family values public promotion and endorsements above all else. Brand Beckham comes first,” he wrote.
One supporter echoed his claims, commenting, “i mean they’ve been telling the same story for literally 3 years now so i don’t think it’s a lie and they’ve been trying to keep this beef private until now.”
At the time of writing, David and Victoria Beckham have not issued a formal response to their son’s public accusations.
One critic speculated, “The beckhams will stay silent I think. No complain, no explain. Brooklyn down fall is coming…”
“Lies will be found out, and malicious stories will be refuted not by his family but the public. He is playing a dangerous game…” wrote one netizen

All he ever does is bleat about how awful his parents are, while sending them lawyer letters forbidding them from talking about him. Does he have any purpose in life? What does he do for society?

I think the wedding dress level of detail is just something he takes for granted, and he would be thinking of course I meant her gown for the evening not her main wedding dress? And be puzzled that was the main takeaway. I actually feel sorry for him, (despite the fabulous wealth) as I have a partner who’s plagued with anxiety, and see how debilitating it is for him too. But imagine having anxiety and living in a goldfish bowl with that level of curated posts and scrutiny.
