what’s going on with Brooklyn Beckham?

so he’s done a vow renewal after only getting wed in 2022 and none of his siblings or parents were there, just seems to have been organised by his billionaire wife’s parents. It looks like a very deliberate fuck you to his family. What can they have done to deserve such shocking treatment? It’s bizarre. And let’s hope the marriage to the (reportedly prickly, hard work) billionaire works, so he doesn’t have to come crawling back to Mum and Dad………

Perhaps they thought they needed to do it so soon in case they marriage doesn’t last. TBH the only people I know who have renewed their vows have split up soon after.

ShanghaiDiva · 12/08/2025 10:42

I see as evidence that their lives are completely without purpose: no real career, not much in the way of education, little evidence of any talent, and thus this type of activity gives temporary focus. After this I imagine it’s back to holidays, another tattoo and showing us how to make a bowl of soup.

It’s odd but also fascinating. They are like birds in a gilded cage, fluttering aimlessly about whilst shitting all over the place. Poor Posh.

Belladog1 · 12/08/2025 10:45

They are just bored and looking for a new photo opportunity to keep themselves relevant. I don't see how anyone would want to renew their vows after only a couple of years.

MamaToABeautifulBoy · 12/08/2025 10:45

It’s all a bit tacky and tragic.

Coffeeishot · 12/08/2025 10:45

He doesn't do much else tbf so this was probably "work" for him, the need for attention is strong in Brooklyn,

Yes this, its something to do isn't?

inmytveara · 12/08/2025 10:47

I also thought their first wedding looked like a fiasco so they perhaps wanted a better experience and pictures

Morestepsplease · 12/08/2025 10:48

Why do they need to do that at their age?

I wonder why they all fell out. It’s sad as it’s obvious the Beckhams are upset over it.

martha4clark · 12/08/2025 10:48

Vow renewal after 3 years? What a pointless, vacuous, embarrassing display of wealth and privilege.

DoctorMartin · 12/08/2025 10:48

My theory is that they feel their original wedding was marred by whatever has gone on between the families and they wanted to make new memories. Remember there was all the media speculation about Nicola’s wedding dress designer and the families were thought to have fallen out even at that stage. It seems they are erasing the Beckhams from their lives completely.

TheOnlyThing · 12/08/2025 10:49

Family’s stop or pause talking all the time. It’s not new and it’s not rare.

SitOnHisFaceIfHeDiesHeDies · 12/08/2025 10:49

Only time I've ever felt sorry for David Beckham

jallyj · 12/08/2025 10:50

completely cutting out his family is very odd though. I’ve seen this happen in a few situations with a controlling spouse who doesn’t want the in-laws around so convinces their partner to cut them off. Weird unless David and Victoria have done something to really seriously piss them off.

I think something happened at the old wedding so this was a way of resetting and making nicer wedding day memories. Just a guess!

Zov · 12/08/2025 10:51

I agree @jallyj I don't know what on earth has happened with Brooklyn and his family (David/Victoria/his siblings.) I wonder if he is in touch with grandparents, cousins, uncles, aunts etc?

As has been said, Brooklyn has nothing whatsover to offer. Zero talent or skills. I think he is a troubled young man, and I fear for him and his future. I think he has some serious issues.

And who the F renews their marriage vows after 3 years? Confused All this feels very performative, and like he's sticking his middle finger up at his parents. Incredibly childish.

Is his wife a billionaire? I thought she was an B-list/not very well known actress? I believe her parents are rich, but it's not her money. Is Brooklyn like Marylin Monroe's character in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes?' Her husband-to-be's father says she is a bimbo and is only marrying his son for his money, and she says 'oh no no no, I'm NOT marrying him for his money, I'm marrying him for YOUR money!'

Vroomfondleswaistcoat · 12/08/2025 10:52

I think they just needed to raise their profiles a bit. Sell a few pictures of a 'second wedding' to some magazines, get a lot of headlines... make yourself 'relevant' again....

Sidebeforeself · 12/08/2025 10:52

He’s just following the money. As rich as Mummy and Daddy are, the PILs are far richer so he’s making his choice quite clear.

RosaMoline · 12/08/2025 10:52

I am totally amazed it has lasted that long. Brooklyn’s definitely punching, and if I were her, his limpet-like behaviour towards her, and puppy dog demeanour would’ve given me ‘The Ick’ ages ago. Plus, the conversations must be riveting 🙄 If you’d asked me back in 2022, I’d have said a year, tops.

MyLifeIsaRollercoaster · 12/08/2025 10:53

I feel bit sorry for Brooklyn it’s not his fault he was raised that way with famous parents that sold every detail of their life and are basically a brand

hope he can find a passion he can really get into

Milliejacksonhouseforsale · 12/08/2025 10:53

Back to burning the bacon for chef Brooklyn.🧑‍🍳🥓🔥

ImAPreMadonna · 12/08/2025 10:55

I think they are two young, overly privileged people who have rarely heard the word No.

They wanted to play dress-up and be Prince and Princess again for the day and, since they are incredibly rich and spoilt, they can.

It’s a fairly obscene display of wealth and ignorance.

That and sticking two fingers up at David and Victoria. Pretty sad all round.

Yep. I think this too.

I suspect that the cracks were there even before the wedding. Like most family estrangement, it’s probably a combination of factors rather than just one.

Sad for all concerned but especially Victoria and David. It must be very difficult for them.

Pancakeflipper · 12/08/2025 10:56

He's known a Hello magazine lifestyle since being born so I guess this is normal for him.

Must be a huge kick in heart for his family. Publically renewing without your family. Ouch.

Dippythedino · 12/08/2025 10:57

Victoria Beckham doesn't appear to be very close to David's family so maybe Brooklyn's wife is just doing the same? It's hardly surprising that kids pick up their cues from their families.
