Beckhams Return to Instagram After Brooklyn’s Alleged Toxic Family Claims
David and Victoria Beckham are back on social media after days of silence, and they are acting like everything is normal. The couple posted on Instagram this week for the first time since their son Brooklyn publicly accused them of serious family issues. The posts went live on Wednesday, January 21, according to their Instagram Stories.
Instead of responding to the accusations, both David and Victoria chose to share positive and personal moments. Victoria focused on friendship and memories. She posted old photos and videos to celebrate Emma Bunton’s 50th birthday. One image showed the two Spice Girls together, followed by a clip from their music days. Victoria wrote, “Happy birthday @emmaleebunton. I love you so much!!” and added, “Happy birthday Baby. Kisses xxx.” The posts made no mention of family drama.
David’s posts followed a similar pattern. He shared photos of his former Manchester United teammates Phil Neville and Nicky Butt. Alongside the pictures, he wrote short birthday messages, including “Happy Birthday Mate.” His Instagram Stories stayed fully focused on football and old friendships, not his son.
This return to Instagram came just two days after Brooklyn Peltz Beckham posted a long and emotional statement on his own account. On Monday, January 19, Brooklyn shared a six-page message accusing his parents of trying to damage his marriage to Nicola Peltz Beckham. The post was published directly on his Instagram page and quickly spread online.
Brooklyn wrote, “I have been silent for years and have made every attempt to keep these matters private.” He claimed that his parents always put their brand and image first. He also accused Victoria of ruining his wedding moment and said he and Nicola were turned away when they tried to spend time with David around his 50th birthday. Brooklyn made it clear where he stands, saying, “I do not want to reconcile with my family.” He added that speaking out made him feel free from anxiety he had carried for years.
David and Victoria have not replied directly to the claims. However, David made comments that many people believe were aimed at the situation. During a recent interview on CNBC’s Squawk Box, he spoke about parenting and social media. Without naming Brooklyn, David said, “Children make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes. That is how they learn.” The interview aired shortly after Brooklyn’s post.
Outside of the family conflict, both David and Victoria remain busy with their careers. According to recent reports, David is still deeply involved as co-owner of Inter Miami CF. The club has signed several international players ahead of the new season. He is also said to be working on another documentary series about global soccer.
Victoria continues to grow her fashion and beauty business. Industry reports say she is preparing for a major runway show at Paris Fashion Week in March. Her brand remains one of the strongest parts of the Beckham business empire.
The younger Beckham children are also staying active in the public eye. Romeo Beckham is working steadily in fashion and has appeared in several luxury brand campaigns. Cruz is focused on music and is reportedly collaborating with producers in Los Angeles. Harper, now 14, often attends fashion events with Victoria and is regularly seen at major industry gatherings.
Brooklyn and Nicola are building their own life in the United States. According to entertainment reports, Nicola is set to appear in an upcoming independent film. Brooklyn continues to promote his hot sauce brand and explore food-related projects. The couple recently renewed their wedding vows in a private ceremony, a move many observers see as a clear step away from the wider Beckham family.
For now, David and Victoria are keeping their message simple and public-facing. Their Instagram return shows no signs of reconciliation, only a decision to move forward online without addressing the accusations directly.
