The Beckhams don’t want to reconcile with Brooklyn — unless he agrees to one condition

The Beckhams are reportedly open to making amends with their estranged son, Brooklyn Beckham, but not with his wife, Nicola Peltz.

“David and Victoria love Brooklyn and are afraid of losing their son. They would take him back in a minute,” a source told People on Tuesday, with another source adding, “The Beckhams have no intention of reconciling with their son unless Nicola is out of the picture.”

However, the second source theorized, “That’s not an ultimatum he’s going to cave on.”

The insider continued to claim that Brooklyn “has felt more support from his wife in these past three years than from his parents in his entire life.”

But according to a source close to the Beckham family, “David and Victoria believe that over time, Brooklyn will come back. But they can’t do anything until then.”

Reps for the Beckhams and Peltzes did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

Last week, Brooklyn, 26, took to his Instagram Story to post a jaw-dropping statement about his estrangement from his family, saying he does “not want to reconcile” with them.

In part, he claimed that his mom, 51, “cancelled making Nicola’s [wedding] dress in the eleventh hour” and then “hijacked” their first dance as newlyweds, proceeding to dance “very inappropriately” on him.

But the hostility between Victoria and her daughter-in-law, 31, seemingly began long before the couple’s April 2022 nuptials.

“Victoria and Nicola got along in the first few months, but then Victoria started acting like a jealous girlfriend. She seemed so jealous of Nicola,” one Peltz family source told People, while a Beckham family source countered, “Nicola is the one who is jealous of Victoria. She wants to be famous.”

Reportedly, the Beckhams — led by a retired UK soccer star and Spice Girls member-turned-fashion designer — and the Peltzes — a private American family headed by billionaire investor Nelson Peltz and former model Claudia Heffner Peltz — never meshed.

“Their families are so different,” a Peltz source said, elaborating that a source of contention is David and Victoria’s life of extreme fame.

A Beckham source explained that the couple is “very strategic about everything they do because they are basically a billion-dollar corporation.”

Another source echoed those sentiments and added that despite the rift, they have no regrets about how they raised Brooklyn and his siblings: brothers Romeo Beckham, 23, and Cruz Beckham, 20, as well as sister Harper Beckham, 14.

Despite Brooklyn’s insistence that his mom and dad’s “controlling” ways gave him “overwhelming anxiety,” the second Beckham source claimed that they “always supported Brooklyn in everything.”

Neither David, 50, nor Victoria has publicly addressed Brooklyn’s allegations.
