“The Beckhams have no intention of reconciling with their son unless Nicola is out of the picture,” a source told the outlet. “But this isn’t an ultimatum he’s going to give in to. Brooklyn has felt more support from his wife over the last three years than he has from his parents in his entire life.”

Uthe added: “That said, a tight, controlled statement to close the media loop could be strategically smart. No emotion, no back and forth, just boundaries and closure. Explaining too much weakens authority.”

“My family values public promotion and support above all else,” Brooklyn said in the public address shared on Instagram on January 19. “The Beckham brand comes first.”
David and Victoria appear to be “taking a page from the royal handbook” by remaining silent over their son’s attacks, which included an embarrassing revelation where his mother allegedly “hijacked” his first dance with Peltz at their 2022 wedding to Brooklyn says her parents “pressured” and attempted to “bribe” him into giving up the rights to his name.
“On the one hand, this silent strategy makes Victoria and David seem unconcerned and above the rumors, which suggest they believe the truth is on their side and therefore have no need to defend it,” Nicole Moorecommunications and relationships expert, told Fox News Digital. “However, by remaining silent, they risk the narrative turning against them, especially if Brooklyn releases further information that portrays the family in a negative light.
Moore noted that David and Victoria’s silence speaks volumes and “unfortunately leaves room for the Internet to run wild with theories that can damage the perception of the quiet strength that the Beckhams have worked so hard to cultivate.”

“If they released a statement acknowledging that their family sometimes experiences conflict, like every other family, but that they love all of their children equally and want nothing more than peace within the family, the public would probably be on their side,” Moore said.
However, according to a source interviewed by People, “they are remaining silent because they do not want to draw more attention to this subject.”
Meanwhile, a Brooklyn source told the outlet that he and his wife “are so down.”
