Brooklyn Beckham family feud gets devastating update with ‘no way back’

Romeo Beckham’s relationship with his girlfriend would require a “small miracle,” according to sources, for normal family relations to resume following a string of false accusations.

Romeo Beckham’s split from his girlfriend won’t heal fractured family relations, friends believe. Insiders say it would take a “small miracle at present” for peace to break out between Brooklyn and his parents David and Victoria.

It comes as his wife Nicola Peltz’s friends previously blamed Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnbull for them not going to David’s 50th. Pals alleged it was because Brooklyn had a brief romantic liaison with her, which was denied by Beckham’s friends.

According to Peltz’s friends, The Beckhams “choose Kim over Brooklyn.” However, Beckham family friends objected to Kim being “thrown under the bus” and claimed this was incorrect.

According to one source, Romeo’s separation from her wouldn’t alter things. Sadly, there are no indications of reconciliation. The source claimed that there is still a lot of pain that needs to be treated.

Sources close to Nicola have previously insisted that as “an outsider coming into the Beckham family, she has helped Brooklyn see the emotional abuse and toxic behaviour within”. The claims – described as “patently untrue and ludicrous” by friends of David and Victoria – were the “nail in the coffin” of any future relationship, according to insiders.

Any chance of peace talks has “sunk for the moment” due to these claims. How can you describe it as a low, low blow to your own family, one person said. If Brooklyn and Nicola make any attempts to mend relations with Kim now that she is no longer with them, it will be interesting to see how they react.

Romeo and Kim had been together for just seven months.But the relationship between Romeo, 22 and Kim, 24, ended three weeks after David Beckham’s 50th birthday, which was at the start of last month.

A source said of the split: “They split a few weeks ago and it’s all amicable and they are still friends.” Romeo is a former footballer who now works as a model, becoming the face of the Burberry children’s line at the age of just 10.

It comes after Romeo said he must stop stressing about “small things” and called for more “respect” after posting a poignant family message following an emotional weekend. The model was overcome following his dad David’s former club PSG’s Champions League final win over Inter Milan at the weekend.

Manager Luis Enrique was reduced to tears as supporters paid a heartfelt tribute to his late daughter during the pinnacle of their club’s history. He said on Instagram: “I watch stuff like this and look at myself and think why am I stressing about something so small. In the grand scheme of things, love who you love without question, take care of each other, respect each other and enjoy life.”

Last month the Mirror reported how friends of David and Victoria Beckham said the pair were worried about Brooklyn’s ‘unhealthy’ relationship with his wife Nicola.

Chairman of far-right Reform UK party quits after burqa row

After receiving a request from within the party ranks to outlaw the burqa, the Muslim leader of the radical right-wing Reform UK party in the United Kingdom has resigned.

Hours after kicking back at Reform UK lawmaker Sarah Pochin for asking Prime Minister Keir Starmer if his government might consider outlawing the burqa, Zia Yusuf declared on X on Thursday, “I no longer believe working to get a Reform government elected is a good use of my time.”

In a political environment traditionally dominated by the ruling Labour Party and the opposition Conservatives, Pochin won her seat in a by-election last month that saw the anti-immigration party, some of whose members have been accused of Islamophobia, gain significant ground.

The new lawmaker asked Labour’s Starmer to decide whether the move was “in the interests of public safety” when she made her first appearance on Wednesday at the BBC.

In the midst of a raging debate over whether banning the burqa should be party policy, Yusuf said, “I do think it’s stupid for a party to ask the PM if they would do something the party wouldn’t do.”

After leaving the Conservative Party, Yusuf, a former banker and self-described “proud British Muslim patriot,” assumed leadership of Reform UK after the general election of last year.

In a remarkable election last year, Reform UK, led by Brexit campaigner Nigel Farage, won four parliamentary seats, moving on to win its first mayoralty, and a number of council seats in local elections last month.

It currently outperforms the Labour Party in national opinion polls.

Yusuf is “a huge factor in our success on May 1st,” Farage claimed on X.

Prior to now, party hierarchy divisions had been made public.

Rupert Lowe, one of Reform’s lawmakers, was charged with a number of charges, including physical assault on Yusuf, in March.

Love Island star Megan Forte Clarke reveals link to controversial Islander

ExCLUSIVE: Love Island contestant Megan Forte Clarke revealed that before she entered the villa, she had worked with a former islander and gave her some very wise words.

Love Island’s brand-new series is kicking off with a bang on Monday, June 9, and one of the most talked-about arrivals is Megan Forte Clarke, who’s ready to turn heads in the famous Mallorcan villa.

Megan, a 24-year-old beauty who was originally from Dublin but now lives in Brighton, has a surprising connection to a former Islander who has already walked the walk.

Megan, a makeup artist and model, revealed she received a helping hand from none other than Harriett Blackmore, who appeared on Love Island earlier this year during the All Stars-style winter edition.

Before entering the villa, Harriett Blackmore gave Megan some advice.

The two worked together in Brighton, and Harriett – known for her bold personality and glam looks – was more than happy to share her insider knowledge with her former colleague before she jetted off.

Speaking exclusively ahead of her villa debut, Megan opened up about her friendship with the former Islander and the advice Harriett passed on – from the practical to the emotional.

“I had a great time working with Harriet in Brighton for two years.”

Harriett, 23, made waves in the early months of 2024 when she entered the villa with her signature confidence and high-energy flirting. While she didn’t walk away with a partner, she certainly made an impression – and her experience left her with some words of wisdom for Megan.

“She did give me some guidance before entering.” You’re going to need it all, she said, “pack everything,” not “overpack it,” no matter if it’s overweight. I therefore felt prepared to support that with her presence.

It turns out, Harriett’s help was less about grafting and more about girl-prep – ensuring Megan felt confident and ready to face the unknowns of villa life. But when it comes to romantic strategy? That’s where things got a little more personal.

She didn’t necessarily counsel me on relationships. I don’t believe we’re the best people to be giving advice to one another because we have completely different personalities in what we choose to do, but she definitely did and said, “You’re gonna slay, enjoy it.” I’m excited because she claimed it was her best accomplishment to date.

The new summer series, which returns to ITV2 and ITVX on Monday night, is expected to bring back the classic Love Island formula with fresh singles, flirty bombshells, and dramatic recouplings under the Spanish sun. Fans are already buzzing about the new lineup, and Megan’s arrival is sure to stir things up from the start.

With Harriett’s pep talks in her back pocket, Megan steps in ready to slay, and she describes herself as “fun, flirtatious, and fearless.” The Brighton-based bombshell is hoping for some fireworks and isn’t afraid to experiment with it when she doesn’t feel the spark.

Despite her stunning appearance, Megan’s dating experience hasn’t been smooth.

“I don’t believe I’ve ever had a good date, especially when you meet people on Hinge and other things.” It’s just awkward, and I’ve always been a conversationalist. Do you know what I mean when I say, “Oh, you buy me a drink?” You asked me on the date, but I’m sure. Before, I’ve been asked to go for a walk. I thought, “It’s obvious that I’m a Chihuahua.”

All eyes will be on Megan as she enters the villa doors, with Harriett cheering her on from the sidelines and millions watching back home.

I’m a book, open to all. Everyone says that, I am sure. You get what you see, not what you get.

Will she find love, bring about conflict, or both? One thing is certain: She will arrive prepared.

On ITV2 and ITVX, Love Island airs on June 9 at 9 p.m.

Love Island 2025 is set to sizzle with a fresh batch of singletons entering the villa on Monday, June 9 for its 12th series. Among them is 23-year-old Ben Holbrough from Gloucester, a private hire taxi driver and part-time model who’s no stranger to the show’s casting process, he reveals.

Standing at 6’2 with a chiseled physique, Ben has been modelling for the past six years, while juggling his taxi driving job, he is often showcasing his workouts and modelling shots to his 11,000 Instagram followers.

Although he opens up about his past involvement with the show, his journey to the villa wasn’t straightforward.

“Last year I went to London for the interview,” Ben revealed to us. “Before that, I was in talks with them for a couple of years, but it never got further than a few Zoom calls in the application phase… at school, it’s funny, all the teachers used to say to me, ‘I see you on Love Island in a few years.’”

Ben’s decision to join the show stems from his frustration with modern dating. “Dating in 2025, for me, is a shambles. It is mission impossible,” he admitted. “Being in the Love Island villa, no one can fake their feelings in there.”

“Everything’s intense. It’s hard for people not to be true to themselves. I feel you get a better judge of character in there. It’s easier to find ‘the one’ when you’re all in the same situation. In the outside world, social media, everything, gets in the way. It’s so easy to go on, ‘like’ a few pictures. Finding a solid girl is hard.”

Preparing for villa life, Ben has been hitting the gym hard. “I’ve definitely been upping it at the gym. I’ve been going and doing double sessions, weights in the morning, and cardio in the evenings, trying to get those abs a bit more popping,” he shared.

“But I don’t really see the other lads competing with me.” I’ve been working out hard for my physique for a long time, so I’m not comparing myself. I’ve also been having no conversations with any girls in the last two and a half months. I’m yelling to return to the meeting place and talk to girls.

This season introduces a new rule regarding sexual activity in the villa where it will be shown, with Executive producer Mike Spencer confirming the sizzling shake-up after an exclusive tour of the villa: “If sex happens, we’ll show it. The Hideaway will be open 24 hours.”

When asked about this, Ben unflinchingly said, “I can’t promise anything.” I’ve explained this to them. I’ll do my best to maintain the PG. However, I am unable to disclose at this time what I will be feeling while staying at the villa.

“I have no idea what the circumstances will be.” I’m not sure who I’m going to be paired with. The temptation to share a bed with a girl every day is unfathomable, in my opinion. Never repeat “never”

Ben joins a diverse lineup of contestants this season, including footballer Harry Cooksley, Dublin native Megan Forte Clarke, and motivational speaker Sophie Lee.

With his blend of charm, honesty, and readiness to find genuine connection, Ben is poised to make a significant impact in the villa.
