Radar deconstructs Brooklyn Beckham’s Instagram rant about family feud

Another source added that Brooklyn’s claim that he was rejected by his father during David’s 50th birthday was misleading.

“David was open to spending time with his son and made that clear,” the insider said.

“The one line he did not want to cross was seeing Brooklyn on terms that deliberately excluded Victoria, because from his point of view that would have meant accepting her exclusion from her own family.”

Brooklyn also groaned, “I grew up with overwhelming anxiety. For the first time in my life, since I distanced myself from my family, that fear has disappeared.’

A family source said the admission had caused more concern than relief.

Further claims, including accusations that Victoria invited women from Brooklyn’s past to family events, have increased tensions.

David and Victoria have not made any public comment.

“Away from the public eye, they are absolutely devastated by what happened,” the insider said.

“They believe the statement has caused long-term damage to family relationships, and that Victoria in particular has been cast as the antagonist in a story where she feels she has only tried to be a supportive mother.”
