Brooklyn Beckham Formalizes Rift, Directs Parents to Communicate Only Through Lawyers

The instruction, delivered via a summer exchange between their law firms, formalizes a long-running estrangement.

Overview

  • Reports published January 9 say future contact is to be routed between Schillings for Brooklyn and Harbottle & Lewis for David and Victoria Beckham.
  • His request asks for no calls, messages or social-media outreach, and for his parents to avoid posting statements or tagging his name or photos.
  • Since the letters, he has blocked his parents and younger siblings on social media, with exchanges limited to formal lawyer correspondence, and brother Cruz has indicated he was blocked.
  • The move is described as a boundary-setting step rather than active litigation, with no direct public statements from Brooklyn, David or Victoria.
  • Tabloid accounts, notably the Daily Mail, link the rupture to messages seen as disparaging toward Nicola Peltz, a claim reported without corroboration from the family.
