Cruz Beckham is honoring his childhood with Brooklyn Beckham amid his elder brother’s ongoing estrangement with the family.
In a Wednesday, February 11, Instagram post, Cruz, 20, shared a black-and-white throwback photo with Brooklyn, 26, and brother Romeo Beckham. The trio all smiled as they looked off into the distance. (Victoria and David Beckham are also parents of daughter Harper, whom they welcomed in 2011.)
Cruz’s post comes one month after Brooklyn, who tied the knot with Nicola Peltz in 2022, broke his silence on his rift with the family.
“I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private. Unfortunately, my parents and their team 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,” Brooklyn wrote via his Instagram Story on January 19.

He continued, “I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
Brooklyn went on to allege that his parents have been “trying endlessly” to “ruin” his relationship with Nicola, 31, since before their wedding. At one point, he claimed that Victoria, 51, “hijacked” his first dance with Nicola and “danced very inappropriately” on him.
“Since the moment I started standing up for myself with my family, l’ve received endless attacks from my parents, both privately and publicly, that were sent to the press on their orders,” he claimed. “Even my brothers were sent to attack me on social media, before they ultimately blocked me out of nowhere this last Summer.”
Neither Victoria nor David, 50, have publicly commented on Brooklyn’s statement. Us Weekly reached to David and Victoria’s reps for comment at the time.

Cruz, for his part, weighed in on his brother’s statement when he “liked” a post by content creator and comedian Olly Hume, who pretended to be the DJ at Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding.
“And now for the song requested by the mother of the groom for her first dance with her son,” Hume said in the January 20 Instagram video as the song “Pony” by Ginuwine began playing.
In the comments section, several users spotted that Cruz had “liked” the post. “The fact Cruz has liked this 😂👏🏼,” one user wrote, while another added, “Big shoutout to @cruzbeckham, who is laughing with us. What a sport!! 🙌🙌🙌❤️❤️😂.”
Days later, Cruz stood united with brother Romeo, sister Harper and his parents as Victoria was honored with the French equivalent of a knighthood by France’s Ministry of Culture. Cruz and Romeo were also joined by their respective partners, Jackie Apostel and Kim Turnbull.
While reflecting on the achievement, Victoria gave her thanks to her family for supporting her.
“Thank you also to business partners who believed in me, my family, and especially David — my husband, and original investor. I couldn’t be more grateful, you are my everything xx,” she wrote via Instagram on January 26.
