Cruz Beckham has shared a surprisingly sentimental snap of Brooklyn, despite the claims that the eldest Beckham brother has blocked the family.
The rumbling family feud has seemingly eased slightly after that explosive statement from the aspiring chef, 26.
In his latest Instagram post, Cruz, 20, shared a selection of photos from practising for his tour to a throwback picture with his brothers.
Brooklyn can be seen beaming as he wraps his arms around his two younger brothers, including Romeo, 23, in a sepia-toned childhood snap.
The dynamic is a far cry from their current situation, with Cruz revealing in December that his brother had blocked the family on social media.
Reports had suggested that Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham had unfollowed their eldest son, as well as his wife Nicola Peltz, on Instagram.
The young singer was quick to address the claims, writing: ‘NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son… Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked… as did I.’
Weeks before, he had extended an olive branch to Brooklyn by sharing a throwback post of the brothers and their dad.
‘❤️love you guys,’ he captioned the post, tagging David, Romeo, and Brooklyn despite the fallout.
Cruz’s new post finished with a snap of him and his mum at Christmas, with Victoria commenting heart emojis in response.
His sentimental moment comes after Romeo debuted a new poignant tattoo, following Brooklyn’s cover-ups.
It read ‘family’ on the back of his neck; meanwhile, Cruz got a tiny ‘J’ inked on his ribs in tribute to girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30.
Brooklyn’s anchor tattoo, dedicated to his dad, was covered up by symbols weeks after his ‘mama’s boy’ ink was hidden by Nicola’s wedding bouquet.
A source told Metro that the football legend is ‘obviously heartbroken’ by this development, as the Beckhams are known for their penchant for sentimental ink.
‘David is obviously heartbroken over Brooklyn’s decision to cover up his tribute to him,’ our source shared. ‘It feels like a deep cut, even after everything that was said in his statement.
They confirmed: ‘David still has his tribute to Brooklyn, his nickname Buster on his neck, and has no plans to cover it up.’
Rumours of a rift in the famously close Beckham ranks were confirmed by Brooklyn’s bombshell statement earlier this year.
The hot sauce salesman is living in the States with Nicola, having declared that he ‘does not wish to reconcile’ with his family.
In his statement, he claimed his parents ‘controlled’ him from an early age and then became ‘disrespectful’ to his wife, coming to a head on their wedding day.
Nicola, 31, removed all traces of her in-laws from social media last month, notably deleting a post which she shared to mark Victoria’s 50th birthday in 2024.
