David and Victoria Beckham fear Brooklyn is trapped as new £10.5M home is 'not in his name'
Brooklyn Beckham has reportedly made a permanent move to LA with his wife Nicola Peltz after buying a lavish new property and putting further distance between him and his parents
Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz have been no stranger to headlines in the past few months over their reported feud with the rest of the Beckham clan. In recent times, it's been reported how the couple snubbed both Victoria's birthday as well as David's milestone 50th celebrations and his knighthood.
Posh and Becks' eldest son has been putting more and more distance between him and his once close knit family but Brooklyn and Nicola's recent purchase of a £10.5M mansion in Los Angeles has reportedly left his mum heartbroken. Their feud reportedly worsened after the 26 year old decided that LA will now be his home for the foreseeable future after buying the new pad with his American actress wife, 30.
According to a source, there were hopes that his life in the US wouldn't be "permanent", but "this house purchase quashes any last hopes". Another insider told the Mirror: "This house has nothing to do with family dynamics. Both Nicola and Brooklyn's careers are based in Los Angeles, and Brooklyn spent part of his childhood there while his father played for LA Galaxy.
"During that time, he attended school in LA for several years and built a life and friendships in the city. LA has always felt like home to him."
However, it's now been claimed that Brooklyn doesn't actually entirely own the huge abode which boasts five-bedrooms and six bathrooms.
The Sun reported that socialite Nicola is the one who mainly owns the house. Sources say there are now fears that it could leave Brooklyn "trapped".
Speaking to the publication, the source claimed David and Victoria 'understand that with privilege comes responsibility' as they were 'two working-class kids done good'.
They added: "When it came to buying this house, of course they weren't just going to hand their son millions of pounds — what sort of message does that send?"
However, another insider insisted that the claim was 'nonsense' and added the couple 'will always support Brooklyn if and when he needs it'.
Speaking to The Mirror, a source close to Brooklyn have slammed the 'cruel and baseless narrative'.
They revealed: "It's disappointing - and frankly absurd - that anyone would try to twist Nicola and Brooklyn's marriage, and this meaningful milestone of home ownership, into something toxic.
"Their relationship is grounded in love, respect, and commitment. The suggestion that Brooklyn is 'trapped' isn't just false—it's a deliberately cruel and baseless narrative aimed at undermining a strong, loving marriage.'
It comes after Brooklyn remained silent while his father's dreams of a knighthood finally came true.
Brooklyn's actions have reportedly left mum Victoria furious.
An insider told Heat Magazine: "The whole family is devastated by the current situation. The tension had been there for a while but no-one thought in a million years that it would turn this toxic.
"Victoria can't fathom why Brooklyn hasn't been in touch to apologise. She's furious with him, but also heartbroken".

Beat this weekend's heatwave to binge all 8 episodes of 'tear-jerking' thriller
This weekend is set to be a scorcher, with temperatures tippling over the 30 degree water mark. So what better way to beat the heat than set up in front of a fan with a good binge watch? Amazon Prime Video has just the thing after this week dropping all eight episodes of the hotly anticipated summer thriller We Were Liars. Based on E Lockhart's bestseller, which did numbers on BookTok, this glossy adaptation is a summer vibes machine with a twist you'll never see coming. We can't talk about that big spoiler-y final reveal, which has been one of the book's biggest talking points since it was published over a decade ago. The show's central mystery swirls around rich young thing Cadence Sinclair, played by Emily Alyn Lind, who is retreading her memories of the previous summer after she half-drowned and had no recollection of what happened. 'Something terrible happened last summer,' our heroine Cady tells us via voiceover, which is peppered throughout the show. 'I have no memory of what or who hurt me.' To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video Up until that point, her life had been a sun-drenched dream, buoyed up by her filthy-rich 'American royalty' family and a close-knit bond with her troublemaker cousins – who the family dub the titular 'liars'. Set on the family's private isle Beechwood, near the Kennedy stronghold Martha's Vineyard, this is The Summer I Turned Pretty meets a near-murder mystery, which is already ranking at the second spot on Prime Video's ranking of most popular film and TV. The novel's author was also an executive producer on the show and teased – spoiler free – the pacing of the show and how they kept the audience who had not read the book guessing. Lockhart told Deadline: 'We want[ed] to stretch out the suspense a little bit and give each, each of the liars their own experience of that big event.' Senior TV Reporter Rebecca Cook shares her take… When Cady isn't making ominous reference to her impending amnesia via voiceover, We Were Liars is largely a summer vibes machine with a big-budget soundtrack. The breathy voiceover can sound like Carrie Bradshaw's column word salad when you really tune into what she's quite repetitively saying. But whenever you start to feel bogged down in the so-so teen melodrama, some big reveal will come from another corner of the show to pull you back in. This is the show's strength: it moves at a clip and there is always something barmy happening to one of the Sinclairs. Unlike the best eat-the-rich mysteries, this is painfully lacking in the laughs department and probably takes itself a bit too seriously. But you won't regret sticking around for the final reveal to plug the gap in Cady's memory: it's so bonkers it's beyond the guessing game. Prime Video viewers have already been ploughing into the episodes of the show – and have been left emotional at the show's final twist. @Ayaaam_x wrote on X: 'I can't open my eyes from the tears. I have read and reread that book prepping for the show and still nothing could ever.' Many of the viewers have been fans of the book, which found a new audience on TikTok, with @halsteadaes saying they were 'ready to be emotionally destroyed' by the show. More Trending @itsamemikasa added: 'We Were Liars destroyed me wtf were those plot twists in the last episode.' @twoworldsapartt chimed: 'Watching this knowing what's gonna happen is making me wanna slam my head into a wall.' @dimaggioooo added: 'Just finished we were liars (haven't read the book) and OH MY GOD THE ENDING,' alongside a string of crying emojis.

Chris Brown pleads not guilty to ‘bottle attack' charge
R&B singer Chris Brown has pleaded not guilty to attempting to cause grievous bodily harm in an alleged bottle attack at a London nightclub. The American musician, 36, is accused of attempting to unlawfully and maliciously cause grievous bodily harm with intent to Abraham Diaw at the Tape venue, a private members' club in Hanover Square, Mayfair, on February 19 2023. Brown confirmed his name and date of birth before entering his plea, saying: 'Not guilty ma'am' during the plea and trial preparation hearing at Southwark Crown Court. His co-defendant, US national Omololu Akinlolu, who turned 39 on Friday, denied the same charge. Both defendants are further charged with assaulting Mr Diaw occasioning him actual bodily harm, with Brown also facing one count of having an offensive weapon – a bottle – in a public place. They were not asked to enter pleas to those charges with a further court hearing set for July 11. Sallie Bennett-Jenkins KC, defending Brown, told the court it has been difficult to discuss matters with her client while he is working. Around 20 people sat in the public gallery behind the dock for Friday's hearing, many of them fans of the singer. A date for a five to seven-day trial was set for October 26 2026. Brown had arrived at around 9am to a large group of photographers outside court, and walked in silence to the building's entrance. The Go Crazy singer, who was able to continue with his scheduled international tour after he was freed on conditional bail last month, performed in Cardiff on Thursday night. He had to pay a £5 million security fee to the court as part of the bail agreement, which is a financial guarantee to ensure a defendant returns to court and may be forfeited if they breach bail conditions. Manchester Magistrates' Court heard last month that Mr Diaw was standing at the bar of the Tape nightclub when he was struck several times with a bottle, and then pursued to a separate area of the nightclub where he was punched and kicked repeatedly. Brown was arrested at Manchester's Lowry Hotel at 2am on May 15 by detectives from the Metropolitan Police. He is said to have flown into Manchester Airport on a private jet in preparation for the UK tour dates. Brown was released from HMP Forest Bank in Salford, Greater Manchester, on May 21. Shortly after being released from prison, Brown posted an Instagram story referencing his upcoming tour.
