Brooklyn Beckham

This is a theme that is often repeated in families. Children grow up believing that their life is normal. Then they meet someone who questions the normality and the child sees a different way of doing things.

When they reach out and start making new rules for themselves, the parent often reacts with hostility. Blaming the partner for taking away their child.

When I first dated my husband, whenever we were on the journey home I would wait for the criticism. It never came and for the first time in my life I felt safe. Safe to be myself and safe to say what I felt. I was my mother’s whipping boy for 70 years. I wish I had Brooklyn’s courage to speak out.

I thought BB meant Bluebelle for a minute there and was thinking I m never seen anything on instagram 🤣🤣🤣
I think there’s a lot of projection going on and none of us have any idea whether it’s wives or just him had enough
Victoria certainly seems to keep David on a short lead if we are talking of wives

I have to disagree, David has done plenty of things in the past nowhere near Victoria (& I don’t mean the alkedged affairs)

I feel Brooklyn was pretty daft to release this statement, having read it all, parts are pretty weird and others very damning.

I’d like to see the “dance” and I really do hope D&V say nothing

In this instance, though I do agree, neither Brooklyn nor his wife’s lives would be considered “normal”

Strange isn't it the differing reactions to upbringings? My father was a drunken, violent, abusive man who left his children with many emotional scars. I'm not sure why but none of us became estranged from him. In fact we looked after him in later life. Brooklyn obviously has his reasons. We all react differently I suppose.

So what is this inappropriate dance when Victoria was all over Brooklyn. Tbh have been to a fair few dances at weddings and as the night draws on and the drink starts to affect the guests who have probs been drinking for most of the day, dancing frequently becomes much more uninhibited. In fact I seem to remember Victoria being helped out of the building at either her 50th or David’s, so I imagine she likes a drink or three.

Well, all I know is the dress VB decided to wear for the wedding of her son, was totally inappropriate..it was was backless, and had not much more going on at the front, and she obviously wasn't wearing a bra..I can’t imagine what the brides family must have thought, it positively screamed look at me - not the bride..And then for the wedding singer to call VB “the most beautiful woman in the room” was out of order, it was if the bride wasn't there..It was all about Brand Beckham as far as I could see.

I couldn't care less what is drone does. he has failed at every career he has tried and lives off his parents and in-laws.

I simply do not understand why the sad family breakdown involving this nonenity should warrant even one line in the newspapers, let alone the ludicrous space it is getting at a time when the world is imploding and the power of life and death rests in the hands of mad men..

I kind of agree, sadly these revelations about “famous” people makes money for the media!

Now I don’t believe the actual video has been publicised so who knows?

ah you have got it all wrong, the straight face is her image, like Garbo, in the real word she is always laughing, has a sharp wit, is funny and loving, she adores her children, its always the same when a son gets a wife, the mothers are turned on, dont know if its jealousy or what, it never seems that the husbands are jealous of the wifes father. another example is Adam Peatty

I had a mother like Victoria, she was awful and hated anyone she didn't approve of first. She ruined 2 of my relationships because they weren't suitable for her.
I can easily imagine the kind of person she is, controlling and her way or the highway, she clearly doesn't like Brooklyns wife and will see her as a threat... We all know about overhearing mil!

If your mother hates your wife (and is possibly jealous of the money and power) then you have a choice... Put up with it and deal with constant nit picking and being stuck between your mother and wife, or ditch one of them. I know for me the best option was to ditch the mother and I feel in this situation it's his best choice right now.

Regardless of him wandering through life, which is fine as he's not hurting anyone and can afford it, why can't he make his own life choices? Why does he have to, as an adult put up with his parents no matter what? Don't we all as adults have that option?

It was supposed to be the 1st dance between to bride and groom, his mother hijacked it. Now obviously nobody has seen the video but from what people who were there said she behaved rather undignified and a tad slutty which resulted in the wife crying and leaving the room. She also wore imo a very inappropriate dress for her son's (or anyones) wedding, cancelled the brides dress at the last minute and it seems tried to upstage her... Nobody can blame being drunk on all that.

Definitely not a fan of David and Victoria and never have been. Did not like his comments via texts when he didn't get a Knighthood last year and Victoria always looks as if she's acting for the camera - is there ever a photo of her where she isn't draped around David or her sons. Their sycophancy has landed them titles and may make them happy but I pity their children.
Have not read any of the articles about the 'Brooklyn breakup' nobody's business but theirs and cannot understand why so much press has been devoted to it when their are real problems in the world.

If true Victoria’s behaviour was that of a jealous mother trying to score over her son’s new wife and keep control as number one. On the other hand Nicola is not crowned in glory either so who knows exactly what to think? One thing imo is that Brooklyn’s so very very public lengthy declaration is not in his or his wife’s best interest. Best to keep quiet and walk away.

Brooklyn is being driven by his wife just like Harry!

Yeah right, always blame the women..

Monami- do you know her personally? That's not meant to be mean - a genuine question. The couple has carefully sculpted their image - even the two docs about them were made with their approval before they aired (their production company was involved). We really have no idea what kind of parents they are when the cameras are off. I do remember her bare-faced lying in an interview that she had undergone no surgery whatsoever on her breasts - at the time she had two grapefruit shapes placed high on her chest with no visible support - a woman with children. It fooled no woman (or cosmetic surgeon) alive. She might be witty, warm, kind etc. How would we really know? Tbh I'm almost grateful for something so trivial to think about when the news is so dreadful.

Look at Suri Cruz! Brought up without her father around. Maybe indulged a bit, but she is at uni and showing herself to be a lovely young lady. Well done to her Mum Katie Holmes.

The more you discuss it the more the MSM will continue picking away at the scabs.

About 9 or 10 years ago I was in a shop in Bluewater buying pjs for my daughter. As I paid, the staff were behaving strangely, giggling and laughing. They told me Victoria Beckham had been their previous customer, buying the same pjs. They said she was with a friend and was really chatty and friendly. I must have missed her by minutes.
I am not one that is interested or super impressed with ‘c’lebs’ but was strangely pleased we had chosen the same pjs.
Point is she was friendly and not standoffish, with the staff.

Dreadwitch I read that Nicola was having fittings for a dress designed by someone else months before her wedding.

Hasn’t VB always promoted an image of herself as aloof/disinterested. She appeared this way as Posh in the Spice Girls. I personally don’t think it suits her, a smile would probs improve her image but I don’t think she is scowling at home when relaxing.

Apparently untrue according to a journalist who had been invited to the wedding.

In fact, the rest is just rumour, speculation and recollections may vary.

I was involved with a charity thing, we wrote to various celebrities asking if they could donate something for a charity auction. Some responded some didn't which is fair enough.

I got a note from VB saying they were just going away but giving me her mother's number and asking me to liaise with her. Their donation added thousands to the appeal. Her mother was lovely. My kids were with me when I was talking to her and her mother must have heard them. Her dad phoned me back and asked if my kids would like an autographed photo of V and D which the kids loved and got two photos each.

One snapshot but they all appeared friendly, kind and down to earth.

Goodness! As if the bride's family are not influential billionaires and they allegedly made sure if the marriage failed Brooklyn would get nothing.
Brand Beckham have nothing compared to Brand Peltz.

I think that you've hit the nail on the head!!

They do a lot for charity.
