Sir David and Victoria Beckham are reportedly willing to listen to their eldest son Brooklyn’s perspective as part of efforts to mend a high-profile family rift that has dominated headlines throughout 2025. Insiders close to the couple emphasise that the former footballer and fashion mogul remain committed to reconciliation, despite a series of public snubs that have deepened the divide.
A source revealed that “David and Victoria have always wanted the feud with Brooklyn to be resolved.” The insider added, “They’d love to have him back in the picture but feel as if there are things to hash out in their relationship. They want to move forward as a family and could be open to hearing Brooklyn’s side of things.”
The comments signal a potential thawing in relations, coming just days after Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, were notably absent from Sir David’s knighthood ceremony at Windsor Castle earlier this month. The couple, who now style themselves Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz Beckham, also skipped David’s milestone 50th birthday celebrations in May, Victoria’s Paris Fashion Week show, and the premiere of her Netflix documentary.
Tensions are understood to trace back to Brooklyn and Nicola’s lavish 2022 wedding, where reports of friction between Victoria and her daughter-in-law first emerged. Matters escalated this year with Brooklyn and Nicola renewing their vows in August without inviting any members of the Beckham family — an event officiated by Nicola’s billionaire father, Nelson Peltz.
Earlier reports suggested Brooklyn and Nicola would only consider reconciliation if David and Victoria issued a “substantive and public apology” for what they perceive as unfair treatment and negative media briefings. Sources close to the younger couple have described a “one-sided media war” and expressed hurt over perceived slights toward Nicola.
Despite the impasse, the latest insider claims indicate David and Victoria are prioritising family unity over pride. “The emphasis is on listening and next steps rather than airing grievances,” the source noted, adding that the couple are keen to avoid further public escalation.
The Beckham brand has long been built on a picture-perfect family image, making the prolonged estrangement particularly painful. Brooklyn’s younger siblings — Romeo, Cruz, and Harper — have remained visibly close to their parents, attending major events together and showing public support.
For now, any resolution appears to hinge on private dialogue. While Brooklyn and Nicola continue their life in the United States, focusing on projects like Brooklyn’s Cloud 23 hot sauce line, friends of the family express cautious optimism that the door remains ajar for healing.
As one observer put it, the Beckhams “want to move forward as a family.” Whether that includes Brooklyn stepping back through it remains to be seen, but the willingness to hear his side represents the clearest olive branch offered in months.
