So the person on the previous page was most likely right. She wanted to be a Kris Jenner and make a nepo baby empire for her kids. She must have been trying to get him to sign an agreement that she can still have the rights and he won't apply for it himself before the wedding.


I don't see any similarities. Kris had nothing of her own before she started making money through her kids. The Beckhams built an empire on their own and probably want to protect it- in part for their kids inheritance, including Brooklyn. Brooklyn and Nicola have no clue what goes into building a business.

Btw the Peltz are hard core MAGA.


Who cares? Does that mean the Beckhams should hold the trademark and family contract over his head? He doesn't want to be part of it. Thats what happens when your kid grow up and decide to do other things.


But he wants to piggyback on the success they created with the family name for himself. Nobody is stopping him from "deciding to do other things" but destroy the family name can't be one of them. He can go play with the Peltz name and money all he wants, if his in-laws would allow it. That probably won't last very long either.

He can use his name as he wishes, including destroying it. Again, if the parents wanted to control a brand name in perpetuity then they should have used a different name then their last name.


Just wait until the lawsuits start. He has no clue. You can't just do whatever you want with "your name".

Becks isn’t his name.

How is he using their brand?


He has 16 million followers on IG. I would say 99.9% of that is due to being part of the Beckham brand. They aren't joining for the cooking tips.

Sooooo he should just remove all those people from his account?

It makes a lot of difference to the post I was replying to. They aren't trying to exploit him or use him for money. That's completely different than the motivations of a Kris Jenner.

He married into a shady family- the Beckhams aren't perfect, but the Peltz have made some very questionable decisions. I would be concerned if it was my son too, but I would probably also reflect back and seriously wonder what I as a parent did for the family to get to this point.

Leaking negative stories to the press about your kid is a great way to express concern.


Such as? What were all these leaked stories?

Weird that he wants to call his restaurant that. Just a random name?

Yes, he should start a new account as BPB and show he can do it himself - on his own merit.
Just like H and M hanging on dearly to their royal titles.

If you want to strike out away from your Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad family - then make a clean break and show what you can do on your own.

+1 some of us aren't buying that Victoria Beckham leaked all these stories. That's what you don't understand.

This will be a trust me bro, but my GF has kids that went to school and did sports with their kids. They weren’t besties with the Beckhams but we all know that you get to know people pretty well over years of school and sport involvement.

She never had a bad thing to say about them. She thought David and Victoria were loving parents and good parents, and the kids were very well mannered. Victoria is actually a bit shy but they were all humble, normal, nice people. She said they were much nicer than the typical parents and definitely appreciated what they had and had zero sense of superiority.

I think Brooklyn is lying and sure, Nicola and fam are influencing him but he’s old enough to say no. A lot of what he said in the instagram post is provably false- the dress, the dance come to mind.

It’s very clear that one side was leaking to the press (if we want to call TMZ the press), and it wasn’t Victoria….

To be fair, this is easily the most (only?) interesting thing Brooklyn has ever done.

Also probably the last interesting thing he’ll ever do.

How much can you value family if you’re ok with your husband abandoning the family he was clearly very very close with


Maybe Vickie shouldn't have tried to take over the wedding.

Yep, nobody is interested in another untalented nepo baby brat trying to capitalize on his name in the most predictable ways possible. But they are interested in messy family drama. That's the extent of it.

Anything these days that is 'light' drama or just far removed from the real world gets a lot of attention. It gives people a distraction from real life and an outlet to chat about gossipy things. And Brooky has delivered!

I do feel sorry for Brooklyn. It sounds like his mom is controlling and needs to be the center of attention and have her way and control the family brand. His dad is a cheater, and image is so important to them.

I do think Nicola probably is used to getting her way as well, and has more money, and Brooklyn felt caught between them. I don't know much about Nicola but seems like she has a big personality so there was going to be a clash.

I have a very difficult in law relationship with one member of my spouse's family, and she always needs to have her way and tell everybody how they should live and be and insult them if she feels they made a choice she didn't like, and so I had enough of it, so I can identify more with Nicola in this scenario.

Nicola's family does have more money but it's going to be split between 8 kids (you read that right!) so actually Brooklyn may inherit more at the end of the day. I doubt either of them can perform simple division so they probably haven't figured this out yet.

10 kids! Her dad had 2 kids with his first wife before Nicola's mom had her 8.
