David and Victoria Beckham's eldest son says he doesn't want to reconcile with his parents

 Brooklyn Peltz Beckham said she does not want to reconcile with her famous parents, former soccer player David Beckham and former Spice Girl turned fashion designer Victoria, in a social media post in which she recognizes a long-rumored family breakup.

Peltz Beckham posted on Instagram on Monday, accusing his parents of trying to "ruin" his marriage to the American heiress and actress Nicola Peltz, daughter of businessman Nelson Peltz and former model Claudia Heffner Peltz.

"All my life, my parents have controlled the narratives in the press about our family," Peltz Beckham wrote, adding that his parents have been "trying incessantly to ruin" his relationship with his wife, since before his wedding in 2022. He adopted the compound surname after the wedding.

"I'm defending myself for the first time in my life," Peltz Beckham wrote to his 16.3 million followers in an extensive statement published in six stories on the social platform.

Rumors of a dispute between the Beckhams and their eldest son have been circulating for years, with tabloids publishing headlines about the conflict.
