Brooklyn claims his parents have been "controlling the narrative" but all of the stories I remember hearing have been negative re Posh and David (Posh wouldn't do the wedding dress, the parents are too controlling, the parents do this, the parents do that). Why would Posh and David leak stories to the press or control a narrative that 100% of the time paints them in a negative light? I don't get it. That makes zero sense.

Because wealth isn't enough for these vapid young people. They want celebrity more than anything. Did anything know who she was before she married into the Beckham family? Right.


Look I'm perfectly prepared to believe the Beckham parents are narcissistic and image-obsessed, and that Victoria could not stand to be displaced by a young woman her eldest son is besotted with. But the press seems to be coming entirely from the kids, with Brooklyn parroting his wife's concerns. I guess that's what happens when you raise a weak trustfund kid with no mind of his own. Don't be surprised when the weakness of mind is manipulated by another person against you. They're probably all a-holes but I'm inclined to think Nicola is the worst of them.

The press about this estrangement for the last year + has mostly been from the Beckhams. All the articles overwhelmingly paint the Beckhams as innocent and that they have an evil DIL.

I wouldn’t be surprised if it were more nuanced. CAA or whatever agency is managing brand/licensing deals for D&B Beckham and they added the kids onto the agreement.

"Brand and Culture expert Nick Ede added: 'Situations like this are far more common than people realise in high-profile families but they’re usually handled privately, not in the public eye or as explosively as this one

'The Beckham brand has always been both a family and a business. When a name becomes a global commercial asset, legal protections and trademarks are often put in place early on to safeguard future opportunities and avoid third-party exploitation.

Where this becomes emotionally charged is timing and perception. If a conversation around contracts or trademarks happens during a deeply personal moment like a wedding, it can understandably feel overwhelming or misinterpreted particularly if different advisers are giving different interpretations.

'What may be intended as protection can feel like pressure when trust and communication break down which this certainly feels like it is.

'It’s also important to stress that trademark ownership doesn’t equal control over someone’s life or identity it’s about commercial usage in specific categories. These arrangements are usually designed to future-proof the family rather than restrict individual freedom."

The royal family was never trying to control Harry like Victoria/David did. They tried hard to give him space. Don't compare them.

The parallels are obvious. People don't respect people who live in such luxury and have so much privilege complaining about such petty things like a dance at a wedding. Not with the real problem so many face. They aren't heroes.

Who said they are heroes or need to be heroes? The wedding dance was obviously added on to pile until the straw broke the camels back. Victoria being a crazy boy mom is not like Harry and the royal family. Sorry.

The point is that the camels back breaking at all is ridiculous. These are not real problems. These are bored, wealthy people with too much time on their hands. And 99% of the world is going to roll their eyes at a sob story about a nepo baby bride not being the center of attention during every second of her million dollar wedding and the overbearing, inappropriate mother in law. Victoria Beckham isn’t nice? Who would’ve guessed!

They are not real problems to you or the average person. It's obvious an issue to the people in question.

So why are they appealing to the average person? Nobody asked for this.

Nobody asked Victoria to enter a PR war with them either. Dont be obtuse. Brooklyn was tired of the reconciliation narrative that was coming so he went to IG. Something he should've done a long time ago

Why? He's known only as their son. He has zero accomplishments of his own. He comes across badly here.

So what if he has zero accomplishments?

PR war doesn't make any sense because all the PR has painted the Beckhams in a bad light. Why would the Beckhams push negative PR about themselves?
