THE celebrity world have been quick to take sides and have their say on the Beckham family feud.
Brooklyn, 26, launched a nuclear attack on his famous parents on Monday – blasting his Spice Girls star mother, 51, in a damning six-page message posted on social media.
The budding chef, who wed actress Nicola Peltz in April 2022, said: “I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life” during the celeb-packed Miami nuptials.
In his jaw-dropping upload, he made 12 key accusations towards his loved ones in his full statement including allegations of “bribery” and telling Bates Motel star Nicola “she’s not family”.
Brooklyn also said he does “not want to reconcile” with his family, and accused his parents of “controlling” the narrative.
Understandably, Posh and Becks were left “floored” by the claims yet have bravely made a comeback on Instagram.

The bombshell statement has rocked the showbiz world and prompted celebrities to take sides – either Team Brooklyn or Team Beckham.
Here we take a look at some of the famous faces who have waded in.
TEAM BECKHAM –
KATHERINE RYAN
Katherine Ryan didn’t hold back as she branded Brooklyn an “ungrateful nepo baby” in a staunch defence of his parents David and Victoria.
The comedian, 42, made it clear she is firmly in Posh and Beck’s camp after their eldest’s rant sent the family “into a tailspin”.
Katherine blasted the budding chef for suggesting his parents are “controlling”.
On her podcast, Telling Everybody Everything, the mum of four insisted: “I am on David and Victoria’s side.
“As a parent, and as someone who has been a s****y young person, I think Brooklyn Beckham needs to grow up a little bit.
“He is the first son of an absolute dynasty family, they are like a royal family in matching denims to us – and that comes with many privileges.
“But of course it’s complicated because you live your life in the public eye. fine, but I feel that he has benefited from this a lot and he doesn’t seem to have the measured emotional intelligence to go, ‘In many ways, this has been s**t, but in many ways, this has created me with a beautiful life.’”
She added: “My parents are not abusers. My parents performatively or otherwise say nice things about me and give me opportunities.
“I do think a lot of nepo babies struggle with not being able to reach – certainly not eclipse – the success of their parents.”
LISA RILEY
Emmerdale‘s Lisa Riley admitted on Loose Women on Tuesday that she understood the Beckhams position after trying to win over her in-laws.
The I’m A Celebrity star, 49, has been with partner Al since 2014 and they got engaged four years later.
Appearing on the ITV daytime show, co-star Kaye Adams asked the panel: “It’s difficult for us to relate in the business aspect of this, but from a family aspect, and those tensions between in-laws, do you relate?”
Lisa said: “Yeah for me, I wanted to approve, and I wanted Al’s mum to really approve of me.”
Kaye asked if she finally got his parents approval, to which Lisa explained that relationships with your in-laws is all about taking the time to work on it.
Lisa replied: “No, I can’t cook, so I’m not a very good wife in what she wanted. But I do my own laundry.
“I think you want to be loved and liked, and I think she grew to think she’s quite funny, she makes her son really happy.
“I think you’re right, it’s a hard thing to crack through.
“I love the fact now, that my dad, obviously all the terrible relationships I had before, and my mum and dad having to pick up the pieces. Now I sit with my dad and he loves the fact I’m happy 12 years in with Al.
“I’ve found someone that’s not going to do me over.”
CAROLINE AND MARK PEATY
The Sun revealed earlier today that Adam Peaty’s parents Caroline and Mark are siding with the Beckhams amid the ongoing saga.
In a heartbreaking parallel both sets of parents are no longer speaking to their respective sons.
Caroline and Mark Peaty were not invited to their son’s recent wedding to Holly Ramsay after a family bust up – but David and Victoria, who are close to Holly’s parents Gordon and Tana, were centre stage.
They said: “We think the Beckham situation is very sad. Brooklyn stated he wanted communications through solicitors then proceeded to post on social media.
“What he has put in his statement doesn’t tally with what we know of the Beckhams. If that’s what he says is his truth, who are we to mainstay but we support the Beckhams.
“Brooklyn wouldn’t have had the opportunities he has had but for his parents. Would he be married to his wife were he not a Beckham?”
KATE GARRAWAY
ITV’s Good Morning Britain was ready to discuss the bombshell post the morning after.
Susanna Reid described it as “utterly tragic”.
She said: “The accusations are so damning, it is hard to see them coming back from them and repairing them.”
While her co-star Kate Garraway said a family being torn apart like this was shocking to see.
She told viewers: “It isn’t the brand, is it? It’s the family life that breaks my heart. It’s horrible.
“The little moments where they’re learning to walk and you’re giving them a cuddle and putting them to bed. It feels so sad.”
TAMARA ECCLESTONE
Meanwhile, socialite Tamara Ecclestone, 41, was quick to remind people that there are two sides to every story.
She simply wrote on her Instagram story: “Recollections may vary.”
EMMA BUNTON
Victoria’s Spice Girls bandmate Emma Bunton shared her love for her in a new post today.
Earlier today, Posh Spice Victoria uploaded a throwback snap showing her with Baby Spice Emma Bunton to celebrate her 50th birthday.
It showed Victoria giving her bandmate a piggy back and added the caption: “Happy Birthday Emma Bunton.
“Love you so much”.
Emma did not touch on the feud, but she was keen to show her support by re-sharing the black and white photo on her Instagram Story.
She sweetly captioned it: “Love you too!”
TEAM BROOKLYN –
LILY ALLEN
Pop star Lily Allen, 40, appeared to take Brooklyn’s side after he hit out at his parents.
The singer shared posted her 2025 West End Girl album cover with Brooklyn’s face instead of hers.
The hot sauce creator could be seen wearing the iconic blue polka dot puffer jacket in the style of artist Nieves González.
Lily did not elaborate but it seemed that she had sided with Brooklyn by posting the image on her Instagram story.
Lily’s post may hold some deeper significance.
Her album is a raw, confessional account of her marriage breakdown to actor David Harbour, with themes of betrayal and rejection.
BETHENNY FRANKEL
Real Housewives of New York alum Bethenny Frankel questioned Brooklyn’s motives for airing his dirty laundry in public.
The TV personality said she understood that Brooklyn wanted to “get his side of the story out” and said that “family drama is not unique”.
Bethenny said: “Now it’s become everyone’s business.
“And if you don’t have a ton of experience with the media, you don’t realise that just saying your piece and thinking it’s going to land – it might not land.
“And there’s usually no upside in taking bait, though sometimes it’s really tempting.”
The reality star added that Brooklyn simply “adores his wife”.
JOHN O’KANE
David’s former Manchester United team-mate has launched a savage attack on the ex-England captain over his feud with son Brooklyn.
John O’Kane came through United’s youth team with the midfield icon alongside the Class of ’92.
He claims the pair lived together between 1989 and 1998 before he left United for a move to Everton after just two senior appearances.
And O’Kane has taken Brooklyn’s side in the feud, opening up on living with “obsessive” Becks.
He said: “I lived with Beckham for a few years.
“Let’s just say he likes to be in TOTAL CONTROL and was OBSESSIVE on PERFECTION.
“If it took Brooklyn to say this and burn down the so-called perfect family.
“Brand Beckham should not come before your kids no matter what has happened!!”
SUSANNE CONSTANTINE
TV star Susanne Constantine declared she was Team Brooklyn as she posted a message about “true love”.
She took to her social media, writing: “Can’t believe I’m posting this. But for the record I’m #teambrooklyn @brooklynpeltzbeckham. #truelove.
“Of course there are many many more serious injustices to champion.
“But this young couple’s love for each other is one of the few things that is real, deep and unmanufactured. Long live LOVE,” with a red hear emoji.
Susannah’s daughter Esme, 23, shares the same godfather with Brooklyn – legendary musician Elton John.
SOCIAL MEDIA RETURN
After Victoria returned to social media, David took to his own account to mark former Manchester United teammate Nicky Butt’s special day.
He posted a snap showing the midfielder in his Premier League prime and wrote: “Birthday Boy”.
The latest on Brooklyn’s seismic statement…
The former England ace then followed with another upload to mark the birthday of another Red Devils alum, Phil Neville, and his sister Tracey.
He wrote: “Happy birthday you two,” before sharing an image of himself and Phil on the pitch alongside the words: “Happy Birthday mate”.

STAY SILENT
As yet, Victoria and David have not commented on Brooklyn’s statement.

During his public appearance yesterday, David stayed silent and refused to answer questions on Brooklyn.
Though in a chat after the event, the ex Manchester United ace did admit his children had “made mistakes on social media”.
Speaking live on CNBC’s financial program Squawk Box, Becks said: “I have always spoken about social media and the power of social media . . . For the good and for the bad.
“What kids can access these days, it can be dangerous.
The Beckhams will be in a tailspin – here’s why there is no going back
BY ELLIE HENMAN
Brooklyn Beckham has delivered what can only be described as the single most damaging blow ever to David and Victoria Beckham, albeit the whole Beckham family, with that explosive statement. But where do the family go from here?
Victoria and David are very much never complain, never explain. They are very much like the Royals in that sense. They will be in an absolute tailspin this morning because this is so damaging. This is a brand, this is a family unit they have built. They love their children dearly. They’ve always protected their happiness and tried to protect their privacy as much as possible. This has just blown every single thing apart.
Do I think the Beckhams are going to come out and say anything? No, I don’t. I think they’re going to say nothing. But I think one thing we can guarantee is there is definitely no going back now.
I think Brooklyn doesn’t want to go back. I think David and Victoria were always really open to reconciliation and I believe they probably still are. But this is so incredibly hurtful of Brooklyn to do so publicly.
Every single time I see an Instagram post by Brooklyn, his followers comment saying: ‘Call your parents!’ I wonder now if those people might have changed their minds and may be backing Brooklyn a bit more? Or are people are still going to be team Victoria and David?
It’s a tough one, but this is explosive and I actually still cannot believe what has happened.
“But what I have found personally, especially with my kids as well, use it for the right reasons.
“I’ve been able to use my platform for my following, for UNICEF.
“And it has been the biggest tool to make people aware of what’s going on around the world for children.
“And I have tried to do the same with my children, to educate them.
“They make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes. That is how they learn. That is what I try to teach my kids.”
Sources close to Victoria have also told The Sun she is “embarrassed” about various memes circulating online about her “inappropriate” dancing.
A source said: “Victoria is really embarrassed now she’s being mocked online, it’s just devastating to her.”
