Nicola Peltz Beckham celebrated husband Brooklyn Beckham’s 27th birthday with a heartfelt Instagram tribute amid his family’s estrangement. In a video shared on March 4, the actress gushed over her husband and praised their marriage after Brooklyn posted various claims in January about how his parents attempted to meddle in his relationship. Despite their rift, Victoria and David Beckham also wished Brooklyn well on social media, sharing photos from his childhood.
Brooklyn Peltz Beckham received all the love on his birthday.
The budding chef turned 27 on Wednesday, March 4, and to celebrate the special day, his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, showered him with compliments on Instagram. Her tribute included a video of Brooklyn blowing out candles on pink donuts arranged on a pink table decorated with roses.
In her caption, the Lola director, 31, called Brooklyn “the most special human.” She wrote, “I hope all your dreams and wishes come true! You light up every room you walk into and anyone who knows you loves you.” She also praised their marriage by writing about how much she loves being Brooklyn’s “wife.” She ended the message with “I love you” written three times.
Her tribute also included a video of Brooklyn blowing out the candles on pink donuts arranged on a pink table set with roses.
In response to the post, Brooklyn wrote, “My baby girl.” Brooklyn’s birthday comes nearly two months after he shared a bombshell post confirming the feud between him and the rest of his family — including his parents, Victoria and David Beckham, and his three siblings — that had previously been speculated. In multiple Jan. 19 Instagram Stories, he detailed what he described as an ongoing attempt by his parents to sabotage his marriage to Nicola for publicity.
“I have been silent for years and have made every attempt to keep these matters private. Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed,” he began. “I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
Only days before Brooklyn released his shocking confessions, a source with knowledge of the Beckhams’ feud told PEOPLE that “David and Victoria have repeatedly asked Brooklyn and Nicola to meet and talk in order to move forward.”
“David loves his kids,” said the insider of Brooklyn and younger sons Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 21, and daughter Harper, 14. “They are his everything.”
However, Brooklyn’s social media statement claimed otherwise, noting that he and Nicola traveled to London for David’s 50th birthday last year but were “rejected” by Victoria and David.
On Jan. 8, The Sun reported that Brooklyn sent his parents a legal notice warning that they can only contact him through lawyers, while also insisting they not “tag” him on social media. The outlet also claimed that a breach of the “desist” letter — an Instagram “like” from Victoria — was why he blocked David and Victoria online. According to The Daily Mail, the decision was made by Brooklyn last summer. As of December, Brooklyn, Nicola, Victoria, and David do not follow each other on Instagram. The couple also do not follow Romeo and Cruz.
However, Victoria and David showed nothing but love for their eldest on his recent birthday. David posted two throwback photographs to his Instagram Stories, writing, “27 Today. Happy Birthday Bust,” while Victoria added, “Happy birthday Brooklyn, we love you so much.”
The family has been estranged for the past few months. On Jan. 27, Nicola shared a carousel of images capturing her and Brooklyn’s quality time together. Meanwhile, the rest of the Beckhams appeared as a united front the day before, celebrating Victoria becoming a Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters. The family of five was photographed at the Ministry of Culture in Paris, wearing coordinating black outfits.
