Brooklyn Beckham opens up about 'bond' with dad David Beckham
Brooklyn Beckham bonded with his dad David Beckham over their love of fast cars.
The 26 year old has opened up about his relationship with the former footballer admitting they grew close because they both love sports cars and David has been collecting them over the years.
In a new interview with The Sunday Times newspaper, Brooklyn admitted his dad inspired his love of racing when he was "very young".
He added: "It's something that me and my dad bonded over. My dad's had some pretty cool cars."
The chat took place in March while Brooklyn was taking part in the Formula E Evo Sessions in Florida before rumours of a family feud became public after Brooklyn failed to attend any of his dad's 50th birthday celebrations while he was in the UK this month.
The eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham was absent from his dad's glitzy party in Miami last month, as well as bash the couple's country home in the UK's Cotswolds, a family trip to France and a party in London.
The former soccer star previously opened up about turning 50 this year, telling Men's Health magazine: "[It] doesn't bother me one bit ...
"People are asking me about it gently, like it should be a big issue. It's not something that I'm worried about, as long as I'm fit and healthy and my family are healthy, that's all I care about."
Brooklyn lives in the US with his wife Nicola Peltz and the couple celebrated their third wedding anniversary last month.
In a post on Instagram, Brooklyn wrote: "Happy 3 year anniversary baby x. I love you with all my heart x I'm so lucky I get to spend everyday with you and wake up to your beautiful face everyday you are my world x I love you so much Nicola."
While Nicola added in a post for her husband: "I can't believe it's been three years since this day - I love you with all my heart and promise to always have your back.
"I can't wait for forever with you. Thank you for being the most incredible husband I could ever dream of. I love you a million times over."

Lizzo and SZA hit the studio to work on new music
Lizzo and SZA have new music in the works. The pals - who previously teamed up on a remix of Lizzo's song Special in 2023 - have been teasing clips from the studio working on something for Lizzo's upcoming "mixtape". SZA captioned one post on her Instagram Story: "Working on a guest star for bookie Lizzo's new mixtape [heart emoji]." In a 2023 interview with UPROXX, SZA said of their friendship: 'Me and Lizzo, we've been friends since, like, 2013, but it was very organic and very random. One day we were on the same tour, and I was like, 'We're about to drive out to Lake Michigan, do you want to come?' And she was like, 'Yeah, let's go.' And then we just got drunk and hung out, and we kept doing that, and then our lives and careers progressed, and we kept talking and hanging out. The other day, I went over to her house. My tummy was hurting because I ate too much, and she gave me a muumuu, and we just laid in the yard and did nothing, and I was like, 'Yeah, this is what the f*** friendship is about.'' In March, Lizzo confirmed she had completed work on her new album Love in Real Life. The delighted star took to Instagram to tell fans about her productive day, after she "finished" her forthcoming fifth studio album. She wrote: "ALBUM IS DONE YALL! ASTROLOGY EXPERTS Do my mercury got micro braids? Cus I got an emergency root canal, announced SNL finished my album all in one day today (sic)" Meanwhile, Lizzo recently expressed her fury over criticism of her new music - insisting negative reviews of her song Still Bad, which was her first single from Love in Real Life, are "lazy". Lizzo wrote on X: "Saying my brand of 'poptimism' doesn't work in a 'post Covid world' is a lazy take ... As if I didn't release 'about damn time' post pandemic ... "As if I didn't write [her song] 'About Damn Time' to be a post lockdown anthem to inspire us to get outside and together again. And was successful at it btw ... "Same people saying my music is 'too optimistic' would've been real mad in the 60s at James Brown and Motown ... "Still Bad is a break-up song with the world. It literally starts with me saying: 'I'm bouta throw my phone away' it's a call to action for the negativity we experience on our phones and how we need to disengage and recenter. The girls that get it, get it ... "In the music video I'm literally taking my power back from the 'birds' (tweets) that tried to keep me down with negativity … "I think seeing and hearing a black woman make real music with radical joy triggers miserable people … but I follow in the footsteps of Janet [Jackson], of Funkadelic, of Earth Wind and Fire … nobody's doing it like me for Us. And I stand on that." She went on: "Imagine listening to 'say it loud I'm black and I'm proud' and saying it's too optimistic ... Imagine listening to [OutKast song] 'Hey Yah' and saying it's too poppy… what Andre [Andre 3000] say? Yall don't wanna listen ya just wanna hate ... "Aretha [Franklin] and Whitney [Houston] got backlash for being 'too pop' and they kept going… and so will I ... "I'm out here reclaiming rock n roll for US … (sic)"

Eric Christian Olsen and Sarah Wright Olsen are parents again
Eric Christian Olsen and Sarah Wright Olsen have become parents for the fourth time. The NCIS: Los Angeles star and his 41-year-old wife welcomed daughter Ocean Rain, a sister for Wyatt, 11, Esme, eight, and four-year-old Winter, into the world on 17 June following an "incredibly complex" labour. The couple wrote in a joint Instagram post: "She's here!! Ocean Rain Olsen. Born 6/17 12:37am - 11 pounds 4 ounces. "Grateful beyond words for our amazing team that helped us get her here safely during an incredibly complex birth. Cannot wait to share all the details of this day." The post featured a series of posts of the couple in the hospital and posing proudly with their new baby. The couple - who married in 2012 - announced in February they were expecting their fourth child, with the happy news coming just a few weeks after their home in Malibu was destroyed by the Los Angeles wildfires. In an emotional post, the Spinning Out actress admitted it was "so hard" to say goodbye to their house because of the memories the family had of the abode. She wrote on Instagram at the time: "It's impossible to put into words these last few days. We are together and safe and surrounded by love. Thank you to uncle Dave and aunt Dani who took in so many of us. We lost our home. It was one of the first areas to go. "Our kids have said 'We all took our first steps there.' It's so hard to say goodbye to our gorgeous town, our special school and this place we have loved for 13 years. But we are so so grateful we are together and for the outpouring of love. "We have received so many messages from friends offering their homes, food, clothing, hugs, things for the kids, support and we are just blown away. It's what keeps making us tear up. Thank you it means so much to us."
