The holidays are always meant for family, aren’t they? But for months now, the biggest story in the celebrity world hasn’t been a red-carpet triumph or a championship win. No, it’s been the aching rift between Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham and their eldest, Brooklyn. The whispers of an ongoing “family feud” have been louder than a Spice Girls concert, but as Christmas gets closer, it seems the A-list parents are finally pulling out all the stops for a reconciliation.
Just last week, Victoria sent the most subtle, yet undeniably poignant, signal yet. The fashion mogul took to Instagram, sharing a festive snap of Christmas stockings hanging at her mother’s home. The little detail that set the gossip blogs on fire? Among the names of Romeo, Cruz, and Harper, there was one special stocking for Brooklyn. It was a quiet gesture, a very Posh-and-Becks way of saying, “The door is open, darling.”
Insiders have reportedly mentioned that David and Victoria are desperately hoping to put the past behind them before the New Year rolls around. Can you blame them? Brooklyn has been absent from so many huge moments this year—David’s 50th birthday, his knighthood. One source even claimed that the “ghost of Brooklyn” has been hanging over their celebrations. That’s a heavy feeling for any parent, but imagine carrying that weight when the entire world is watching.
It seems their main focus now is showing Brooklyn just how much he’s missed. The problem, as some reports suggest, is that they’re trying to connect with Brooklyn while seemingly side-stepping his wife, Nicola Peltz-Beckham. That strategy might be going totally the wrong way.
Brooklyn and Nicola, who are reportedly as strong as ever, aren’t likely to accept a peace treaty that excludes one half of their marriage. Maybe they won’t fix the issue by just hanging a stocking. Maybe a genuine, heartfelt apology is what’s needed first. They can’t just declare the problem over via social media, can they?
Ultimately, this whole thing reminds us that fame and fortune don’t make family drama any easier. We’re all rooting for Posh and Becks to get their family unit back together for the holidays. It’s what everyone deserves at Christmas.
