Wannabe chef, 26, reportedly tells famous family he wants ‘no contact’ while wife Nicola Peltz, 30, is blamed for ‘absorbing’ him into billionaire dynasty
The Beckham dynasty is in tatters after Brooklyn reportedly told his world-famous parents he wants “no contact” with them – and has even covered up the “Mama’s Boy” tattoo he once proudly wore over his heart.
The devastating family rift has left Victoria experiencing “sleepless nights” and calling the situation her “worst nightmare,” while Brooklyn has symbolically erased tributes to his mother from his heavily-tattooed body.
In a shocking new development, the 26-year-old aspiring chef has buried his chest tattoo reading “Mama’s Boy” beneath an elaborate floral design – believed to represent wife Nicola Peltz’s wedding bouquet – in what insiders are calling a “declaration of war.”
The eldest Beckham child, who boasts over 100 tattoos with approximately 70 dedicated to his actress wife and her billionaire family, was also found to have only learned about his father David’s upcoming knighthood through media reports rather than from his own family.
THE TATTOO THAT SAYS IT ALL
Eagle-eyed fans spotted the dramatic tattoo transformation in recent Glamour Germany photos where Brooklyn posed shirtless alongside Nicola, 30.
The original “Mama’s Boy” tattoo, inked in 2018 as a tribute to his fashion designer mother, has been completely obscured by flowers that mirror Nicola’s bridal arrangement from their 2022 wedding.
Even more telling, a heart-shaped “Mum” tattoo on his shoulder has also been covered with dragon and flower designs – leaving no visible tributes to Victoria on his body.
“Brooklyn told his family he wants no contact and he’s not responding to those that try to connect,” a source close to the Beckhams told Page Six.
VICTORIA’S ‘WORST NIGHTMARE’
The former Spice Girl is reportedly devastated by the family breakdown, with insiders revealing the true extent of the behind-the-scenes warfare.
“Victoria dislikes Nicola intensely and it’s been war behind the scenes pretty much ever since the wedding. It’s always been a tug of war about Brooklyn, and Victoria has not wanted to let go,” an insider told the Daily Mail.
Victoria feels he has been absorbed into the Peltzes and that his life is all about that family… Even when Nicola and Brooklyn went out to Paris for Victoria’s fashion show, they stayed with her family because her mother likes to go to the couture shows.
THE WEDDING THAT STARTED IT ALL
The roots of the family feud reportedly trace back to Brooklyn and Nicola’s lavish April 2022 Palm Beach wedding, where tensions erupted over multiple incidents:
The Dance Floor Drama: Sources claim tensions came to a head after Victoria allegedly hijacked a dance at Brooklyn’s wedding, despite her son and Nicola’s planned moment for the song, which was performed by Marc Anthony as a gift to the newlyweds.
Before the song began, Marc Anthony asked Brooklyn to come to the stage, and then announced, ‘The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up , , , Victoria Beckham!'” the source revealed.
Nicola allegedly “felt that Victoria ruined her wedding, and couldn’t understand why,” with witnesses describing how “It was such a jaw-dropping moment that it left the whole room in absolute shock — you could hear a pin drop.”
The Dress Disaster: Nicola chose not to wear a Victoria Beckham design, later explaining: “We connected to start designing the dress, and then a few days went by, and I didn’t hear anything. Victoria called my mom and said her atelier couldn’t make it.”
MISSING MILESTONES
The extent of the family breakdown became clear when Brooklyn and Nicola skipped ALL of David’s 50th birthday celebrations – from Miami in March to London in May.
There are tensions between Brooklyn and Nicola and the family,” a source told People, adding that the Beckhams “love and are always there for” Brooklyn, but are “hurt and disappointed that he’s now playing no part in family life.
Sources revealed Brooklyn’s absence was linked to Romeo’s new girlfriend, DJ Kim Turnbull, who was once connected to Brooklyn. Despite telling David, the former footballer “opted to have Kim there over Nicola.
Brooklyn and his wife flew to attend David’s birthday and “stayed for six days trying to see” the former footballer, but were reportedly shut out of all events.
SIBLINGS TAKE SIDES
The family drama has drawn in Brooklyn’s younger siblings, with both Romeo and Cruz appearing to mock Nicola on social media and posting cryptic messages of support for their parents.
After Brooklyn posted “I will always choose you baby” alongside photos with Nicola, his brother Cruz shared a pointed Instagram story declaring: “I love my family, I love you guys more than anything, mum & dad
Cruz later posted another cryptic message: “It takes 43 muscles in your face to frown and 17 to smile.”
THE PELTZ INFLUENCE
Victoria reportedly believes her son has been completely absorbed into Nicola’s billionaire family, with the couple spending most of their time with the Peltz clan rather than the Beckhams.
Sources tell TMZ that “Brooklyn and his wife of three years, Nicola Peltz, have still not spoken or made amends with Victoria and David, despite Brooklyn’s parents recently using their social media to shout out Brooklyn.
In fact, we’re told there’s been zero attempt from Victoria or David to patch up their relationship with Brooklyn and Nicola,” despite performative social media posts suggesting otherwise.
KNIGHTHOOD SNUB
In perhaps the most telling sign of the family breakdown, Brooklyn only learned of his father David’s upcoming knighthood through media reports – not directly from his family.
David is set to be knighted by King Charles this Friday, with a source claiming Brooklyn is “thrilled” for his father despite not being told personally about the honor.
NO WAY BACK?
While some sources insist “the relationship is definitely not beyond repair,” others paint a bleaker picture of a family torn apart by what they see as Nicola’s influence.
They’ve tried to make peace, but every time they finally have a happy moment, it all falls apart again,” one insider revealed.
“Brooklyn feels torn. It’s his family and blood, but he’s always had a complicated relationship with his dad. A lot of their relationship has felt like ‘business.'”
As the Beckham empire crumbles, all eyes are on whether this once-unbreakable family can find a way back from what appears to be their darkest hour – or if Brooklyn’s tattoo cover-up marks a permanent end to one of celebrity’s most famous dynasties.
