Kim - Romeo's girlfriend - is said to be used by the Becks' eldest daughter-in-law, Nicola Peltz, to cause internal division.
The Becks family has become the center of attention after the eldest son, Brooklyn, and his wife did not attend all of his father's 50th birthday parties last week. Many "conspiracy theories" have been put forward to explain the absence of the Beck's son and his wife, Nicola Peltz, which mainly focus on the relationship between Brooklyn, Romeo, and Kim Turnbull - Romeo's girlfriend.
"Brooklyn met Kim because she dated Rocco (son of pop queen Madonna) years ago, and they were all in the same group of friends. Brooklyn and Kim were very close, but there was never a romance. It seems Nicola doesn't like Brooklyn spending time with the Beckhams and is using his previous close relationship with Kim as an excuse to stay away from them. She denies it, but Nicola has been controlling of Brooklyn since the wedding. The family, including Brooklyn's brothers, has had enough," the source told the Daily Mail.
"The story has been put out in the media that Romeo is dating his brother's ex-girlfriend, and that's why Brooklyn-Nicola doesn't want to be around the family when Kim is around. But none of this is true. Romeo and his parents are upset that Kim seems to be being used by Nicola as an excuse to start a rift," the source added. In fact, the youngest brother, Cruz, has personally quashed rumours that his two brothers are in love with the same girl.
Friends of the Becks say that Brooklyn's wife has a habit of "starting arguments" before family events and then preventing her husband from attending. Some sources say Nicola's friends are behind the rumours that Kim is the cause of the rift between Brooklyn and the rest of the family; some have gone so far as to say that Brooklyn refuses to attend any family events where Kim is present.
Kim has now been "thrown to the wolves", "scapegoated", and blamed for the argument, leaving Brooklyn's parents and siblings "deeply saddened", according to British media. "This has nothing to do with Kim, it's just Nicola. All David and Victoria want is for their son to come back; they'll be there to welcome him back anytime," a source close to the Becks told the Daily Mail over the weekend.
Nicola Peltz was rumored to "dislike" Mia Regan, Romeo's ex-girlfriend. Romeo was said to have played the role of mediator, trying to ease the conflict between his mother and sister-in-law when they were rumored to have a rift.
Meanwhile, according to The Sun, Brooklyn had planned to attend his father's 50th birthday party when he canceled the Met Gala (New York) to return to London from Los Angeles last week. But when he returned home, Brooklyn felt uncomfortable because he thought Nicola was being blamed for the family rift, so he decided not to attend. American news site TMZ also said that Brooklyn and Nicola asked to meet their father alone to celebrate his birthday without Romeo and Kim, but were refused.
However, the Daily Mail reported: "Claims that Brooklyn and Nicola were denied a request to celebrate David's birthday privately are also believed to be untrue."
Romeo went public with Kim in November last year after weeks of flirting on Instagram. The British model and DJ were warmly welcomed by the Becks. Kim looked relaxed as she posed with the Becks family. Meanwhile, Brooklyn and his wife have stopped interacting with the rest of the family on social media, not attending any events with Kim since the beginning of the year.
Like Romeo, Kim is also a "grandchild"; her grandfather was the famous post-war sculptor and painter William Turnbull. Her father, Alex Turnbull, and uncle, Johnny, were members of the post-punk band 23 Skidoo, which formed in 1979. Romeo's girlfriend works as a model and DJ.
