AIBU to feel sorry for Harper? If BB has an issue with his parents it shouldn’t mean that he also stops talking to his siblings. It’s equally as sad if the parents did choreographed the letter/visit.

Brooklyn Beckham accuses parents of using Harper for 'choreographed' house visit

Harper Beckham was spotted making a failed attempt to reunite with her brother Brooklyn, with a spokesperson dismissing the visit as another stunt from 'brand Beckham'

They could of posted a letter or sent it to his legal team like he asked his parents to months ago.

Rather than the set up pap shot since legally they need V and D permission to print harpers photos in cali.

Also he has been posting from New York everyone knew he wasn’t home.

Is it not pausible that Harper went over there as Brooklyn has blocked them all on socials, mobile etc so that was the only way to make contact as they were near Brooklyn’s house?

Also I would totally expect at least one photographer at this address knowing the Beckhams were visiting the city, they would be there hoping for some story to publish, imagine being the only photographer there and getting that exclusive scoop!

But it’s not legal. If it were any of the other beckhams then I could believe it was a lucky pap but unless we hear they are suing, this was sanctioned by VD

If he's blocked them on everything then maybe they should take the hint. And if they absolutely have to disrespect that boundary then put a stamp on the letter and post it. Or get one of their adult staff entourage to deliver it, rather than a child.

I am not qualified to diagnose personality disorders. Though i can see Brooklyn,Nicola and Victoria seem to exhibit some of the traits commonly described in narcisistic personalities.I just think its a shame a child is cut off by her brother because of something her parents have done and hope a solution could found to facilitate some form of contact. I think it really cruel to reject a child because of something her parents have done and i think Brooklyn will regret it..Its all very sad.

Well of course it is sad. Don't you find it sad that BB had to remove himself completely? Imagine what he must have endured to reach that decision. To decide that he could only live without any family whatsoever. Trust me when I say he will have grieved people that are still alive.

No it isn’t plausible because apparently he hasn’t blocked his sister and it’s against the law to take a pap photo of a child without consent from their parents.

Also, according to Newman in Seinfeld, Benjamin Franklin was the first post master of the US Mail service in 1775 so I know for a fact the postal service has been invented.

Well we will never know the truth as depending on what you read, you will get a different story. I’m just playing devils advocate for this reason. I’m not on either side.
I can only assume the letter was actually from D&V and they hoped Harper would not be turned away given she must be an innocent party in all of this. If BB had been in and then invited Harper in, this being captured by a photographer would surely have shown BB in a good light.

I do think the Beckhams are bloody awful parents. My kids would utterly hate to grow up in the limelight, with everyone talking about them, and being used for content. Yuck. They've pushed them into the public eye, not allowed them to grow and make mistakes in private, and now they are the laughing stock. Other celebrities give their children a much more normal childhood.

Totally agree. None of the older kids seemed to go to school
or uni and now don’t work.Harper is always on parade in a weird nightie. It’s all very weird. Cruz’s girlfriend seems to be on the payroll.

I totally believe Brooklyn and the brand and toxic upbringing.

Everything he tried to do was highly publicised & never lasted.

He might not be academic but you would have thought he could have settled to something.

I suppose publicity/endorsements is all he knows.
