David Beckham Sends Birthday Love to Son Brooklyn Amid Ongoing Family Rift

Defiant David Beckham has reached out to his eldest son, Brooklyn, with a heartfelt birthday message of love despite their ongoing family drama.

Two months after Brooklyn, 27, publicly accused his parents of trying to “ruin” his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz, both David and wife Victoria Beckham shared touching tributes to mark his special day on Wednesday, March 4.

“Twenty-seven today,” Sir David wrote alongside an emotional-eyes emoji and a white love-heart via an Instagram Story. “Happy birthday bust, we love you.”

The post also featured a sweet throwback of Brooklyn splashing in a pool with his parents as a child. A second black-and-white photo of the two carried a similar caption: “Happy birthday Bust. Love you x.”

Fans immediately recognized the nickname “Buster,” a name David has used for Brooklyn since birth and even has tattooed on his neck.

In 2015, he former Manchester United star explained on Instagram: “I’ve always called Brooklyn Buster since the day he was born,” making it clear that despite past tensions, his bond with his son remains strong.

Victoria also joined in, posting a throwback of toddler Brooklyn with a string of love-heart emojis. She wrote, “Happy 27th birthday Brooklyn, I love you so much,” signaling her own heartfelt Instagram Story.

The tributes come after Brooklyn’s bombshell January statement exposing the family rift, following months of him not being seen in public with his family.

At the time he posted a six-page Instagram statement and made clear that relations with his parents had broken down, saying he had been forced to respond after they had “continued to go to the press”.

The Beckham family have not responded to the statement directly but as a source previously told  the National Enquirer are “desperate for things to improve.”
