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………

I agree. The Beckhams are depressing. I am amazed at people who consider them and their reactions to be authentic. These young'uns are just repeating the story but creating their own brand.
It's all grotesque and sad.

I agree and they didn’t get to agree to it. They were part of brand Beckham from birth and thrust into the spotlight at premiers etc. There was never a conversation about it, happened from birth. No anonymity, threat of kidnap etc, must be horrendous.

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.

It’s fast becoming the new Harry & Meghan, isn’t it.

Personally I think she has him by the balls and wants to rub salt in the wounds of his parents.

And this would have been taken with the best photography equipment money could buy I bet. And yet still he couldn't take a half decent photo of one of the biggest land mammals on earth on safari! I've done better in a zoo with my phone. ..

Yes, this tallies, I used to work in the same nanny circle as the youngest, she was in the same class as my charge. Good luck to anyone having to team up with her or collaborate on a presentation because she was brought up to believe that she was only responsible for doing schoolwork whilst physically in the classroom. No extra reading, learning lines for a play, spellings or homework necessary for her apparently.

This is awful.
Teachers and nannies really shouldn't be gossiping about their charges.

Especially Nannies who are part of the family.

xSideshowAuntSallyXx · 12/08/2025 15:24

They sold their kids, they've used them as props in their pursuit of fame and publicity. They've never once given them a normal life. You reap what you sow. They've chased the money and fame for the past 20 odd years, I remember seeing something about how Victoria walks out a hotel door, gets in a car and drives round the back just for a pap walk. Maybe they need to stop feeding the media with all these stories and maybe it might sort itself out.

David has had numerous affairs, if the internet is to believed, I'm sure he'd be happier if he could leave but either she's too much of a door mat or she doesn't want it hurting Brand Beckham so won't let him leave. She'd probably be happier too.

Maybe Brooklyn for all his faults, has had enough of playing happy families when he knows the truth.

Can never understand how they're friends with the Ramsey's you couldn't get two different families.

I also dislike the venom aimed at Nicole, who knows what has happened.

witheringrowan · 12/08/2025 15:26

The Peltz's lawsuit against the wedding planners for the original event showed they were both nightmares. They managed to go through 3 different planners, one of whom pulled out 6 weeks before the event.

I would love to hear more nanny gossip.

People generally only renew their wedding vows if one of them has been shagging someone else.

Absolutely! DH and I have been invited to a few of these at our ripe old age, and our standard reaction is to speculate over which one had an affair. 😂

What the hell?

Hard for him to photograph, maybe....

KiteFlight · 12/08/2025 15:43

I wonder if it’s a petty tit for tat thing - Brooklyn and Nicola didn’t attend David Beckham’s 50th birthday, then they saw all of the photos online and then saw that people thought they were spiteful for not attending and blamed Nicola for the rift.

So now they have had the performative vow renewals with her family and then paid back the feeling by plastering the photos online in the hope that people would think bad of David and Victoria and they would feel left out, but it’s back-fired and people still blame Brooklyn and Nicola for the rift.

They seem to have a tit for tat attitude - I remember them saying Brooklyns Grandmothers were sad not to have a photo with Brooklyn at David’s birthday because he didn’t attend, then almost immediately Nicola posted a photo of herself with her deceased Grandmothers gushing about them.

Umbilicat · 12/08/2025 15:44

I have a copy of BB's book I picked up in a charity shop for the princely sum of 20p

It brings more joy to my life than almost anything, honestly the elephant photo is one of its better ones in terms of quality. It's so bad it's brilliant.

Seabubbles · 12/08/2025 14:46

Gosh I remember feeling that Victoria got really full of herself when she met David and even more when they got married (don't flame me just my opinion) and yet now it seems her ego was slightly misguided.

Who can forget the personalised his n her wedding thrones 🙄.

It's the same story with Harry and Meghan. They are a walking disaster, thanks to both their families of origin. They aren't bright enough to notice and break the dysfunctional patterns. (And/or they are very high in narcissistic traits).

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 12/08/2025 15:48

@Umbilicat I hate to break it to you but your were ripped off to the tune of 19p. I'd be billing the Beckhams for it if I were you.

YanTanTetheraPetheraBumfitt · 12/08/2025 15:49

I thought the 'rift' was caused by D and V cutting BB off after the wedding, refusing to pay for a flat for him and telling him he has a responsibility to support his wife and family. And Nicola's family telling him how outrageous that was and immediately buying them a home. I do believe that d and v do expect their kids to get jobs, and bb just never will, will he

Wouldn’t surprise me. I’ve got a dd bit like that. Nice as pie when she wants something but if I say no to something (like paying 1k rent for her a month at uni) she veers between ignoring me and calling me a fucking cunt.

I didn’t say no enough when she was younger and it’s biting me on the arse.

diddl · 12/08/2025 15:51

Why was his book published if it is that bad?

Who on earth came up with the idea, let alone ran with it?

jallyj · 12/08/2025 15:52

just read a review of the book on
Amazon which made me snort out loud:
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 August 2021

”A sensational summary of the level of intelligence, and general awareness of anything other than ‘self’, on offer from one of the lesser known Beckham members. This is a book that will make you laugh, cry, cry-laugh, and smile on almost every page. This is a book to keep as a fantastic atonement to the modern age of celebrity power over substantive matter. It’s priceless. Waste no time purchasing your own copy. Signed copies include a rough squiggle of crayon that may resemble two breasts or two ‘b’s. Buy this book if you need something to stand on to reach higher levels of photography books. An almost must-have for any aspiring pyromaniac. Get it on its first and only print run.”

The guest list seems a bit random. Looks like mostly their staff.

Didshejustsaythatoutloud · 12/08/2025 15:55

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.

chunkybear · 12/08/2025 15:56

In my mind, people renew vows if they’ve been unfaithful and are trying to make another go of it, or desperate to prove their love to others because it’s not real … then often split up
IF it’s a big 2 fingers to the Beckham family, then it’s pretty shitty of them, but also her parents!!

IMO I think they’re as odious as the Harkles

very misguided and very short sighted to have pushed their like this.

didn’t the boys go to Haberdashers school?

it is entirely possible to live a private life out of the limelight. And so for BB and NP it is a choice.

I can answer this one!
my DS was at the school at the time the Beckhams were looking at schools for their move back to UK. One of the boys asked a teacher if the Beckham boys were going to attend and the teachers reply was - can you really see them passing the entrance exam?
I was looking forward to seeing Vic at the summer fair serving up pizzas! Lol

I think we all need a purpose in life, I know I do.

What you on about? This is our purpose in life.
