David and Victoria Beckham are facing a fierce backlash in Los Angeles and online after critics accused them of using their 14‑year‑old daughter Harper in a 'choreographed' attempt to mend their feud with son Brooklyn earlier this month, an incident that insiders now say has deepened the family rift rather than healed it.
Tensions inside the Beckham clan have been simmering since Brooklyn's star‑studded 2022 wedding to Nicola Peltz in Palm Beach, Florida, after which the 27‑year‑old gradually distanced himself from his parents and younger brothers, Romeo and Cruz. The cold war turned into something much noisier in January, when Brooklyn issued a sensational seven‑page statement accusing his family of putting 'Brand Beckham' and public image ahead of genuine relationships, and alleging that Victoria had called him 'evil' during a blazing row over wedding seating and had 'hijacked' his first dance with Nicola.
