Former midfielder David Beckham is said to be afraid of history repeating itself, so he wants to reconcile with his eldest son, Brooklyn, because he and his father had a falling out.
Becks' relationship with his father, Ted Beckham, had a seemingly irreparable rift after his parents divorced in 2002. At that time, he was the same age as Brooklyn now. The father-son relationship gradually improved after Ted's health incident in 2007. Father and son Becks are now closer than ever, and he was even the best man at his father's and new wife's wedding in 2021.
Becks is said to be worried about history repeating itself amid the ongoing rift between him and his eldest son, Brooklyn. "David and his family were really scared that they would lose Brooklyn forever. The word 'lost' is particularly poignant because that was the emotion used when David fell out with his father. Ted believed his son would never speak to him again, and he was heartbroken. Those years were extremely stressful and devastated the whole family," the source told The Sun.
To bring his son back to the family, Becks still tagged Brooklyn in birthday posts despite his son's silence.
Becks once revealed that his father was a dry, hot-tempered, and strict person. Ted passed on his love of football to his son. His passionate admiration for Manchester United and his sometimes-harsh training helped him have a brilliant career. The 50-year-old former midfielder said he had to wait more than two decades for his father to praise and acknowledge his success after he made his 100th appearance for the national team.
Vic has also had sleepless nights due to family feuds. The 51-year-old fashion designer and her husband are said to be devastated as the gap between them and their eldest son grows, the British newspaper said.
"This is Victoria's worst nightmare. The thought of any of her children arguing keeps her up at night. Brooklyn has struggled since meeting Nicola, and there's no denying that there was some disagreement within the family over the couple's wedding. But Victoria and David have been working hard to get things back on track, so this is a real shock," the source added, recalling the noise of Vic and her daughter-in-law's "cold war" after their 2022 wedding.
The eldest son of the Becks has not publicly celebrated his parents' birthdays as he does every year, nor has he attended any of his father's 50th birthday parties, despite being in London together last week. Brooklyn also reportedly refused a fishing and camping trip to Scotland reserved for the father and son, despite being invited in advance. Many sources say the Becks' conflict seems to be related to Kim Turnbull, Romeo's current girlfriend, who was once close to Brooklyn. Other sources say Kim is just a "scapegoat" and Brooklyn's wife is the cause of the Becks' internal crisis.
