Cruz Beckham extended an olive branch to his estranged brother Brooklyn on Instagram on Wednesday for the first time since the family’s huge falling out.
The youngest Beckham boy, 20, shared a gallery of images of his eldest sibling, 26, for the first time since a bitter feud engulfed the family.
Notably, Cruz shared the Billy Joel song The River Of Dreams as a soundtrack to his post, which includes poignant lyrics about ‘something sacred I lost’:
The song goes… ‘I’ve been searching for something, taken out of my soul, Something I’d never lose, Something somebody stole. I hope it doesn’t take the rest of my life, Until I find what it is that I’ve been looking for…’
The post comes after Daily Mail reported Brooklyn still has the ‘brotherhood’ tattoo.
He, Romeo, 23, and Cruz famously got matching tattoos in 2023, and despite cutting ties with his family, the chef’s inking was still visible during an outing on Tuesday.
Brooklyn also still sports the ballerina inking on his leg that he had done to honour his sister Harper, 14, but he has had his ‘dad’ tattoo covered up.

Cruz also shared this picture of himself and his siblings in beekeeping attire – a pastime they would take part in with father David (L-R Romeo, Cruz, Harper, Brooklyn)
And he also shared this picture of the family enjoying one of their favourite dishes together, pie and mash – in David’s much-loved pie and mash shop
In a six-page scathing statement, released on Instagram on January 19, Brooklyn said he has no plans to reconcile with his family.
He accused his mother Victoria, 51, of ruining his 2022 wedding to Nicola Peltz, 31, and his father David, 50, for caring about public perception and endorsements above all else.
Yet among Cruz’s latest gallery post was a picture of himseif with his mother Victoria, a clear sign of solidarity after Brooklyn’s claims.
On Monday, singer Marc Anthony broke his silence on Brooklyn’s statement, insisting the way the family feud has played out ‘is hardly the truth’.
The Latin singer, 57, spoke out three weeks after Brooklyn severed ties with his famous parents, Sir David and Victoria.
At the centre of Brooklyn’s statement was the allegation that his mum Victoria had ‘hijacked’ his first dance with Nicola when Marc, who was performing during the reception, ‘called me to the stage’.
He went on to claim that his mum ‘danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.
Marc, who has been friends with David and Victoria for years, spoke out on the drama, describing the ongoing feud as ‘extremely unfortunate’ but adding that the way it has played out ‘is hardly the truth’.
‘I have nothing to say about what’s happening with the family. They’re a wonderful, wonderful family. I’ve known them since before the kids were born. I’m godfather to Cruz,’ the singer explained.

‘I’m really close to the family,’ he added to in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
‘But I have nothing to say about what happened there. It’s extremely unfortunate how it’s playing out — but [how it’s playing out] is hardly the truth.’
Shared across multiple Instagram stories, Brooklyn claimed his parents had been ‘trying to ruin’ his relationship with Nicola and controlling him ‘for most of my life’.
According to Brooklyn, Marc called him on stage during the wedding and then called for Victoria to come dance with him, stealing the moment that had been carefully planned for Brooklyn and Nicola.
Reports say the singer even invited ‘the most beautiful woman in the room tonight’ to join him, and it wasn’t the bride Nicola, but Posh Spice, leaving guests completely aghast.
Nicola was left devastated by the three-minute dance to a love song performed on stage by Marc, and left the room in tears.
Her family went after Nicola and Brooklyn looked humiliated and also went to find his new wife after the ‘awkward’ dance took place, said DJ Fat Tony who performed at the wedding.
Before Marc spoke out on the claims, Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding DJ Fat Tony placed the blame on the Latin singer.
Tony, a longtime friend of the Beckhams revealed Marc had called Victoria to the dance floor with her son and instructed him, ‘place your hands on your mother’s hips’.
He explained: ‘There was no slut-dropping, there was no PVC cat suits, no Spice Girl action! The word “inappropriate”, why I said it was as well, it was the timing, this is what happened.’
Marc Anthony broke his silence on Monday on Brooklyn’s bombshell statement, insisting the way the family feud has played out ‘is hardly the truth’
Marc spoke out after Brooklyn’s fiery Instagram statement in which he severed ties with his parents, David, 50, and Victoria Beckham, 51; The trio seen in 2019
‘What happened was, basically, Marc Anthony was performing on stage, he then called Brooklyn onto stage.
‘Brooklyn went on to the stage, and the next minute everyone’s expecting Nicola to go up and do the first dance, and then Marc asked for the most beautiful woman in the room to come to the stage – and then he says “Victoria, come to the stage”.’
He revealed that Brooklyn looked ‘devastated’ at the fact his first dance was with Victoria and not his wife, adding that Nicola left the room ‘crying her eyes out’.
Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, the DJ said at one point Brooklyn’s hands were on his mother’s waist while her arms were placed around his neck.
‘The timing was inappropriate for me. It was meant to be a bride and groom’s moment,’ he told us. ‘It was in the heat of the moment. Brooklyn left right after the dance. Nicola left the room and afterwards he went after her.’
He went on: ‘Brooklyn is a friend of mine. The whole situation is just awful, the way it’s played out so publicly. Families are families, I don’t know what started it. At one point someone might say something publicly.’
He continued: ‘Brooklyn is upset about a lot of things, sometimes the smallest of things can become the biggest of things, because it highlights it.
‘I’m not speaking bad about either party in it, I’m just putting the narrative straight about the dance.’
From Eva Longoria and Elton John to members of the royal family, the Beckhams have a star-studded circle – and Marc is right in the mix.
He’s been a longtime friend of the family, with David and Victoria reportedly bonding over their love of his music.
The trio often show up for each other at events – like when David surprised Marc during his Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony in 2023.
David is also godfather to Marc’s son, Marquitos.
In his post, Brooklyn fired shots at his mother, claiming she danced ‘very inappropriately’ at his wedding.
‘My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song. In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead,’ he wrote.
‘She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.
‘We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment,’ he added, referencing the couple’s August 2025 vow renewal, three years after their original Palm Beach wedding in April 2022.
Brooklyn also claimed: ‘Weeks before our big day, my parents repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me into signing away the rights to my name, which would have affected me, my wife, and our future children.’
‘They were adamant on me signing before my wedding date because then the terms of the deal would be initiated,’ he continued.
‘My holdout affected the payday, and they have never treated me the same since.’
Nicola’s billionaire father Nelson has also broken his silence on the Beckham feud.
The business magnate, 83, spoke about the family drama when he did a Q and A at WSJD’s Invest Live in West Palm Beach event on Tuesday.
Nelson said: ‘My daughter and the Beckhams are a whole other story and that’s not for coverage here today. But I’ll tell you my daughter is great, my son-in-law Brooklyn is great and I look forward to them having a long, happy marriage together.’
