Firstly I know the goings on of this family are not important news and there are more important things to worry about in the world .
But I’m finding it surprising that people are fixating on things like the wedding dress and the dancing . There are a couple of points in his statements when he is clearly saying what I have always believed- that David and Victoria are not a couple as they like to portray . I’ve always thought David’s disdain of her is quite obvious in the way he talks to her and that she appears lost and soulless but intent on preserving the brand .
BB says “ 'The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.”
Then - “ media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade. But I believe the truth always comes out.'”

To me it seems obvious what he is hinting at ?

Bruford he's supposedly worth ten million which I appreciate won't allow him to lead the life he's accustomed to but is still a hefty hefty chunk

@Itcantbetrue Ah, I didn’t know that he had his own money. I still think he should try to do something career-wise, it would boost his confidence if nothing else. If he really wants to be a chef, for example, get some training and do it right. He could honestly do anything with his life as he doesn’t need to worry about paying bills!

And he doesn’t need to do it under the Beckham name necessarily.

@gowlett Yes, I hope he’s successful in the US. Being dependent on your spouse’s family is an uncomfortable position to be in because you know that if the relationship ever fails, you’re out in the cold.

Plus as it’s not his wife’s money, he wouldn’t have any claim on it, it’ll be all wrapped up in trusts. So he really does need to make his own way.

With advice I think he can. Although I was shocked at his cooking promo vlog stuff costing him 6 figures! & with a huge team involved.

His sauce & appearances mean he’s independently worth 7-10 million apparently & that will grow.

He can perhaps get 6 figures for USA TV appearances & advertising each time. His personal wealth will grow from here, when you’re hot, you’re hot.

He’s been watching ‘how to’ masterclasses so doesn’t need to. People will pay anyway.

Do the Beckhams own a brand then? What is their brand called? I expect I've probably never heard of it.

@PinkPanther57 I honestly don’t think he’s well known in the US though-I know who he is as I’m British, but I don’t think any of my friends nor my children would know who he was. Which has its advantages, of course. Clean slate and all that.

Not yet, maybe…They say his/their profile was allegedly only reason Mr P allowed the beauteous NPB to marry Brooklyn. He allegedly had a plan to harness the fame to help NP become famous Stateside. Her wish apparently…He’s a ruthless self made Billionaire & they’re rainmakers. If true may happen as planned. Her eyes are very literally branded onto the back of B’s neck.

@PinkPanther57 If that’s the case, I hope BB lives up to FIL’s expectations!

I wish he’d just come out with it 😃
