'To Posh and Becks, the first 50 years of parenthood are the hardest' - Kathy Lette's candid reaction to Brooklyn's Beckham outburst

Kathy Lette and the Beckhams.

Victoria and David Beckham must be wishing they could shove their son Brooklyn back into the condom vending machine for a refund.

After maintaining he has made every effort to keep these matters private, 26-year-old Brooklyn let rip.

'Unfortunately, my parents 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. I do not want to reconcile with my family… For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives about our family. The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.'
