They have raised a monster and are paying the price. But David has said sometimes you hae to let the kids make their mistakes. Brooklyn will come crawling back at some point.

Sure, but at their age they should be taking the high road and not taking the bait. I expect Nicola and Brooklyn to act more immature because of their relative youth and coddled spoiled brat upbringings. I expect N&B to be hypersensitive and more emotionally unstable. The Beckhams have no idea how petty and unhinged they are coming across by publicly battling those two.

Nicola is 31 and Brooklyn is 27. Tehy seem much younger because they are still acting like spoiled children. They are plenty old enough to start maturing.

And the Beckhams aren't publicly battling them - what evidence do you have of that?

I think when a man gets married he generally tends to side with his wife's side. My ds is not even married, his girlfriend is lovely but I see it already. Her side is favored. We're easy going people so it's fine, but I imagine if I were more of a dramatic, diva person who liked things my way, there'd be major clashing over things, little slights can become mountains and resentment accumulates. Now throw in billionaire tantrums and expectations, immaturity, social media and public interest and it's a perfect storm for a huge mess of a situation.

I agree with the first part of your statement but don't see much to support the second. The only thing I've seen is clarification about the trademark issue.

They remind me of Harry and Meghan.

That's how it is with my son. He always tries to accommodate his wife and tends to stay on her side. She'a quiet with some anxiety so she doesn't like coming around as much compared to my daughter's family. He has his own household and has to make the best decision for them and their marriage. It sucks but familial dynamics change when your kids start their own lives. I would have never overstep my boundaries and put my son in that position. Victoria is controlling and petty herself. Instead of being the adult she put fuel on the fire.

Really?

They're tacky, grasping weirdos. Second only to the Kardashians in their fakeness. Valuable brand my ass. Maybe across the pond, but not in the US.

You can say what you want by they are worth $600 million dollars. That seems valuable to me.

Right? If it was worthless Brooklyn wouldn’t be so mad.

Exactly and I just have to add- they are nothing like the Kardashians! The Beckham brand was built on top of both of their successful first careers (sports and music). They aren't "famous for being famous." They actually had some credibility.

People respect people who are self made. They have less tolerance for the spoiled kids acting up.

Meh. David Beckham is a great soccer player. Victoria Beckham was in a band that had its 15 minutes of fame and is now famous for being married to David and being really skinny.

You are underplaying their accomplishments quite a bit. They are very self-made. They parlayed their initial successes (which took work, especially David, when younger) into more sustainable long-term businesses. He is the president and an owner of Miami FC among other things. She has her fashion label and a makeup line among other things. They may not be Pelz-level but their kids grew up in luxury.

+1. The Spice Girls weren't a one-hit wonder. They were a household name in the 90s. It's laughable to say she had 15 minutes of fame. Then Victoria pivoted to another career before you could do that simply by posting on Instagram.

Brooklyn's "takedown" of his parents is shameful. He's not lifting the curtain on anything top-secret. He's having a temper tantrum.

That’s your opinion. I think a MIL not correcting the behavior of a guest rudely calling her the most beautiful person in the room on her son’s wedding day is shameful. I think trying to restrict an adult child’s use of their own name is shameful.

Maybe Brooklyn and Nicola are awful people. Don’t know them and don’t care to know them. But I do think that not accepting your adult son’s wife after they’ve been married for years is not mature adult behavior by Posh and Becks.

Oh so you’re one of those anti MIL wackadoodles. The only shameful behavior is two grown ass adults crying about such things in public when they haven’t worked a day in their lives and have never experienced hardship. It’s extremely tone deaf in today’s climate.

Then maybe the other two grown adults should've stopped going to tabloids about their son and ignored them.

Is her side favored or is she the one who does all the planning for gifts, visits, phone calls, etc.

1. He's obviously very very stupid as evidenced by a. never having had a job b. his decision to do or say any of this in public and c. his appalling grammar

2. Total streisand effect. Answering a q no one asked

3. What kind of psychopathic child would not just deal with this in private? Even if your parent danced weirdly at your wedding, and you're furious, then worst case scenario just stop speaking to them. Who goes out of their way years later to tell the whole world about it? psychotic.

When your narc wife tells you to do it or else, a weak man does it.

Since he’s clearly just parroting her concerns, yes.

I can only imagine what it’s like living with someone that spoiled and self-centered. He’s not the brightest bulb, must be very easy to manipulate.

She also looks frail these days, like she’s developed an ED. I’m sure he feels obligated to “protect” her as she cries daily about how horribly she’s been treated. What a mess.

He's not bright and she's 5 years older than him. They got together and after the wedding he became estranged from his family. It honestly does sound like the Harry and Meagan dynamic!

Right! The parallels are striking.

First wedding

Her blonde look was truly awful. All that money to look like that??!?!

+1. Many men hate talking, planning, etc. And they are so conflict avoidant they would rather not raise something to their mom and skip a visit altogether than have an actual conversation about an issue (which may not even be a huge issue- something like "Hey DW is allergic to your dog and can't stay overnight there unless you board the dog.")

Also, many men are so used to seeing their mothers handle all family interactions so they just assume the wife will do it.

They have a team of household staff. Nicola is not some poor beaten down housewife, buried under the mental load and responsibilities that her slacker husband won't take up.
