Kerry Katona’s daughter, Heidi, has chosen her side in the Beckham family feud after revealing what it’s really like to be the child of famous parents.
The Beckham family drama has captured the nation after Brooklyn posted an explosive statement to Instagram on Monday. In it, he claimed his parents were “controlling” and valued public shows of unity over everything else. He accused them of putting “Brand Beckham” first and spreading “countless lies” to the media.
Though Heidi has a good relationship with her mother, and maintained that Kerry’s parenting is “no different to other mums”, she shared that she “sympathised” with Brooklyn, as she knew how much pressure there was in being the child of someone famous.

Talking on Good Morning Britain, she said: “I definitely sympathise because along with normal teenage pressures you have, on top of it, everyone in the world is watching you. You have that added pressure. It will get to some people and it can upset you feeling like everyone is watching you and you can’t make a mistake because it doesn’t just reflect badly on you, it reflects badly on your parents. So I can 100% sympathise.”
She added that having parents who discuss their families online made their early years “difficult to navigate,” because you can’t stay out of something.
Our parents chose this career path, she said, not because I didn’t choose to be born into this life, he didn’t choose it. It’s challenging to navigate because it’s simpler to say than to do. You can avoid it, but if your parents discuss their families on social media, you will always find yourself there.
She stated that she had no idea how her early years would differ from others’, but added that she was “quite normal” and didn’t care whether Brooklyn had a “normal childhood.” She asserted that no one else’s childhoods have been different for me. Although I’ve had more experiences and opportunities, I still believe I’m fairly normal.
Heidi acknowledged that there are times when they struggle to agree on what should and can’t be posted when asked whether or not she and her mother use social media.
She always takes pictures, and I think the world should see it, but she says she thinks everyone else is beautiful, and we have some heated exchanges about it, Heidi said. But other mothers are just as different from me. Every mother posts about her kids on Facebook, but mine only has a large number of viewers.

Brooklyn Beckham has accused his mother, Victoria, of more than posting a “horrible” picture of him to social media. His bombshell accusations claimed that she called him “evil” during wedding preparation for placing his grandmother and Nicola’s at the top table, that she tried to “ruin” his relationship with his wife and “hijacked” the first dance.
He claimed that he was scheduled to have his first dance with Nicola Peltz at their wedding but was surprised when Marc Anthony called him to the stage to dance with Victoria instead. He then added that Victoria left him “uncomfortable and humiliated” by “dancing very inappropriately on me”.

Cruz Beckham has subtly waded into the feud between brother Brooklyn and their mum Victoria after the former’s bombshell statement earlier this week. On Monday night, Brooklyn broke his silence on the rift between him and his famous parents, claiming that they have repeatedly tried to ruin his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz.
The 26-year-old accused his mum of “hijacking” his first dance with Nicola at their multi-million-pound wedding, writing: “In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead.
“She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”
The explosive claim has turned into a meme by fans, poking fun at the idea of Victoria’s” inappropriate dancing “- and it seems as though younger brother Cruz has seen the funny side. The 20-year-old liked a social media post suggesting that Victoria requested Ginuwine hit Pony for the first dance.
In the skit, the mock DJ says:” And now for the song requested by the mother of the groom for her first dance wit her son! “He then starts playing the 1996 R&, B hit.
Yesterday, a guest at the Palm Beach wedding revealed their account of Victoria’s “inappropriate” dance. Stavros Agapiou, the partner of British DJ Fat Tony, said in a now-deleted comment on influencer Jack Remmington’s post about the scandal: “I was there and she did, he’s telling the truth.”
After deleting the comment, he wrote instead:” Good on him for finally speaking out! “It’s not the first time that the” hijacking “claim has been made, with a source telling People in May last year that Nicola left the room crying after Victoria took over the dance.
” Marc Anthony, who is a friend of the Beckhams, offered to perform as a gift at the wedding, “they said”. Before the song began, Marc Anthony asked Brooklyn to come to the stage, and then announced, ‘ The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up, Victoria Beckham! ‘ “
Another source added that they saw “Nicola run from the room crying.” They continued, “Nicola believed Victoria did this intentionally because she was aware that Brooklyn and Nicola were doing a planned romantic dance.” Why, she couldn’t figure it out, she said.
Victoria is said to be heartbroken by Brooklyn’s explosive statement, while dad David is angry. A source told The Mirror: “Victoria is on the floor, shocked to pieces that her son would do this. Everyone is in shock. But Victoria is totally in pieces over this.

She worries, too, that Brand Beckham’s career will end, and that David’s worries about what other projects he will pursue.
Aryna Sabalenka and a nearly faultless Coco Gauff were the top-ranked Carlos Alcaraz, who fought off a string of “bombs” before entering the third round of the Australian Open on Wednesday.
Daniil Medvedev, a three-time champion, fought through four sets to keep his Grand Slam hopes on track in Melbourne Park, which was cooler and overcast all day.
Alcaraz, the Spanish superstar, defeated German Yannick Hanfmann 7-6 (7/4), 6-3, 6-2) in a heart-wrenching arm fight to claim his second Grand Slam of his career.
Before setting up a showdown with either France’s Corentin Moutet or the American Michael Zheng, he was put through his paces by a player who was 12 years older.
Alcaraz, who has six major titles already but has never won more than the last eight in Melbourne, said, “To be honest, it was tougher than I thought at the beginning.”
“The ball didn’t feel that good,” I said. You’re aware that the ball was coming with both the forehand and backhand.
Rafael Nadal’s compatriot will become the youngest man to do so if the 22-year-old wins the Australian Open to complete the career Grand Slam of all four majors.
The unpredictably unpredictable Medvedev, who finished second in 2021, 2022, and 2024, is trying to control his emotions this year and showed his best form in a fight against Quentin Halys.
He lost a tight first set, but his performance never came under doubt as he crossed the finish line with a score of 6-7 (9/11), 6-3, 6-4, and 6-2.
The Russian, who will next face Hungary’s Fabian Marozsan, said, “It was a very tough match, happy I managed to fight.”
The second round was safely negotiated by Russian Andrey Rublev, American Tommy Paul, Argentine Francisco Cerundolo, and Tomas Etcheverry, as well as Spaniard Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and Russian Francisco Cerundolo.
The latest obstacle facing the German as they attempt to win their first Grand Slam title in a late-night contest against France’s Alexandre Muller is Alexander Zverev.
The third-ranked player, Jannik Sinner’s last year, dropped a set in his opening match, but he argued that it was a good idea to get stretched early in the tournament.

Before giving the Chinese player a glimmer of hope, Sabalenka raced 5-0 clear of qualifier Bai Zhuoxuan, who is ranked a lowly 702, on center court.
However, the top seed was able to win the match with a score of 6-3, 6-1, and set up a meeting with Austria-born Anastasia Potapova, who defeated 2021 US Open champion Emma Raducanu.
Sabalenka, who is competing for a third Australian Open title in four years, said, “Super-happy to close the (first) set, it gives me confidence that my game is there and my focus is there.”
“Step by step,” I’m thrilled with my victory. There is always room for improvement.
Sabalenka is trying to make up for her upset loss to Madison Keys last year by dropping just nine games.
