In a sweet resurfaced moment from his OBE, Brooklyn Beckham embraced his football legend father, David Beckham, who had brutally snubbed his knighthood celebrations.
A throwback moment of Sir David Beckham celebrating his OBE with his eldest son, Brooklyn, has emerged following his bittersweet knighthood.The football icon was officially made a Sir today by King Charles as he celebrated with his nearest and dearest.
However, his son Brooklyn failed to attend the once-in-a-lifetime celebrations with his famous dad, mum Lady Victoria and siblings Romeo, Cruz and Harper. It follows months of reports of a family fallout, with the aspiring chef choosing to distance himself from the Beckhams.
The rumour rift came to light when Brooklyn snubbed David’s 50th birthday celebrations in May, with him then missing out on his siblings’ birthdays and family events. Brooklyn even renewed his vows to wife Nicola Peltz over the summer with just her family present.

Brooklyn missed seeing David receive his long-awaited knighthood at a ceremony at Windsor Castle, adding yet another blow. However, there has been a reoccurring touching moment between the father and son.
Brooklyn and David both attended the family celebration and were elevated to the rank of Officer of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II in 2003. After sharing the title with his wife Victoria, the England ace made his way to a family reception at the Connaught Hotel.
In their 2003 documentary, they reunited with their families to celebrate. Before Victoria asked, “Where’s Brooklyn?” as David hugged his mother Sandra and little Romeo, Victoria entered the room and gave Romeo a hug.
David also inquired, “Where is he?” and quipped, “Wow, how smart you look, I guess.” Look at you, Victoria said to him. The Queenie was seen by Mummy.
Unfortunately, Brooklyn was absent when the King presented David with his knighthood. When the knighthood was announced, he remained quiet over the summer, and David’s family emailed him hysterically.
Instead, the aspiring chef quickly promoted pretzel pita chips on Instagram, which irked many followers. Brooklyn was “thrilled” for his dad, according to one source, who still prefers to keep “no contact” with his family for the time being.
Brooklyn was last publicly pictured with his whole family during their 2024 Christmas celebrations, but it seems like their relationship has since unravelled. Earlier this month, both David and Victoria liked one of Brooklyn’s Instagram videos showing him cooking buttermilk pancakes, which fans interpreted as a quiet olive branch.
However, Brooklyn does not appear to have returned the favour. His brother Romeo gushed over David following the knighthood as he shared on social media: “No one deserves this more than you, love you so much xxx Congrats Sir dad.”
Victoria praised Cruz and the Windsor Castle family, while Cruz also shared photos of the family. Thankful for this occasion and for my incredible team who worked so hard to realize the vision.
David wore the first ever tailored menswear piece from Victoria’s own fashion brand, which featured sweet detailing including a label that featured the date and SDB, in reference to his new initials Sir David Beckham.
