Victoria Beckham notably featured her eldest son, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, in a sweet family tribute amid whispers of a rumored feud.
To celebrate her dad Anthony Adams’ birthday, Victoria, 51, uploaded a handful of throwback family photos to her Instagram Stories on Sunday, May 18.
“Happy birthday, Daddy. I love you so much,” Victoria wrote. “The best papa in the world! We all love you so much!”
In the snap, Anthony and wife Jackie Adams posed with four of their grandchildren. In addition to 26-year-old Brooklyn, Victoria and husband David Beckham also share sons Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 20, as well as daughter Harper, 13.

Victoria’s upload also featured tags for Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz’s respective Instagram accounts. Since Harper doesn’t have her own account, the former Spice Girl made a hashtag out of her daughter’s moniker instead.
Romeo also shared his own tribute to his grandfather. (As of publication, neither Brooklyn nor Cruz posted personal messages.)
“Happy birthday, Papa. Love you,” Romeo wrote on Sunday, sharing a family photo with his maternal grandparents.
The Beckham family has allegedly been navigating a difficult time in recent months, with Brooklyn and wife Nicola Peltz Beckham seemingly distancing themselves from his parents and siblings. Brooklyn and Nicola, 30, even skipped David’s 50th birthday party earlier this month.
“David and Victoria are over it,” a source exclusively told Us Weekly of the perceived drama. “They’ve thrown in the towel over the whole thing. David and Victoria just want to treat everyone the same and approach life like a family, and the family does things a certain way, but Brooklyn isn’t playing it like that, and everything is a drama.”

While it’s not known why Brooklyn and Nicola skipped the birthday bash, a second source claimed to Us that there was lingering tension between the actress and Victoria. Feud rumors began circulating in 2022 after Nicola didn’t wear a wedding gown made by her future mother-in-law’s eponymous brand. Victoria, Nicola and Brooklyn, however, all denied any bad blood or hurt feelings.
“I was going to and I really wanted to, and then a few months down the line, [Victoria] realized that her atelier couldn’t do it, so then I had to pick another dress,” Nicola told Variety in August 2022, denying the feud speculation. “She didn’t say you can’t wear it; I didn’t say I didn’t want to wear it.”
The second insider, however, claimed that the drama “never really got smoothed over” after the wedding.
“You can tell it still affects everyone,” the second source told Us earlier in May. “The tension is still present, and it’s hard for Brooklyn at times. Brooklyn’s having a tough time with it. He’s super stubborn and just wants space from his family right now.”
