The feud between Brooklyn Beckham and his younger brother Romeo caused such a strain on the family, David’s 50th birthday looks set to be anything but a family affair

The Beckhams have always prided themselves on their enviable close relationship with their children and the tight bond shared among the siblings. But now, with David Beckham’s 50th birthday looming, it looks as though the fall out between Brooklyn and Romeo remains unresolved, leaving many to assume the eldest son of David and Victoria, will be absent from the celebration.

The rift is believed to be centred around Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnbull, who reportedly dated Brooklyn nearly nine years ago.

According to media outlets across the pond, Brooklyn and Nicola allegedly believe Kim does not have the right intentions when it comes to dating Romeo. However, Victoria is said to adore Kim and Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel.

And this is why the couple who tied the knot in lavish ceremony in 2022, have been noticeably absent from family gatherings and David’s landmark birthday may be another family occasion to add to the list.

Adding insult to injury, neither Brooklyn or Nicola publicly wished Victoria a happy 51st birthday last Thursday, which is highly unusual when compared to previous years.

Instead, only Romeo and Cruz took to social media to wish their mum a happy day. According to those close to the family, David is said to be left upset over the strained relationship among his sons.

Speaking to the Daily Mail, a source said: “David adores his sons and he is so, so proud of how close they are. He loves having a happy family that loves spending time together. “

They added: “Family is everything to him. He is a working class boy who grew up with strong connections to his grandparents and parents, and he loves nothing more than to see his boys, and Harper, being so close. While the location will be perfect and stunning, what he wants most is for his family to be around him, happily getting along.

They then went on to say: “Right now, though, things aren’t great. All everyone around them hopes is that they can mend any issues in time for the big day – for David. “

Deepening the rift, Nicola and Brooklyn failed to attend David’s pre-birthday bash in Miami last month, which included guests such as football legend Lionel Messi and former supermodel Cindy Crawford.

At the star-studded party, Romeo took on the role to give a speech, which nearly brought David to tears. Friends close to the Beckhams told the publication that Brooklyn and Nicola plan to attend the party in a couple of weeks time.

The source said: “Both have very much been invited as much-loved members the family. But you never know, Brooklyn and Nicola will do what they want to do. “

Another friend revealed: “It would absolutely destroy David if any fall-outs carry on and become big deals. It would be the best birthday present ever for David to have all of his children and their partners happily having a wonderful time together. That’s what really puts a smile on his face. “

Highlighting the tension within the family came after neither Victoria, who is known for using social media to praise her children and celebrate milestones, or David, commented on Brooklyn and Nicola’s third wedding anniversary.

And according to reports, neither Cruz or Romeo congratulated the couple. Instead, Brooklyn shared a picture of a bouquet of flowers sent to them from his in-laws. At first, it was unknown who had sent them as he failed to tag anyone in on his post.

He soon deleted his original message and re-posted the same image but this time mentioned that their gift had come from his in-laws Nelson Peltz and Claudia Heffner.

Brooklyn also posted a throwback picture of the couple’s wedding day. He captioned the post saying: “Happy 3 year anniversary baby x I love you with all my heart x I’m so lucky I get to spend every day with you and wake up to your beautiful face every day you are my world x I love you so much Nicola xxxxxxx.”

Oasis fans are convinced that the Gallagher brothers will play a ‘pre-tour show’ before a spate of sold-out gigs around the world this summer, and it’s all down to one thing

Oasis fans are hopeful of the possibility of a “pre-tour show” before the band’s sold-out global tour kicks off. The Gallagher brothers are readying themselves for an Oasis revival with a series of concerts from July to November this year, and fans are desperate for their reunion – given that Noel and Liam last shared a stage back in 2009.

The idea of a warm-up gig has been floated around by fans on Reddit’s r/Oasis subreddit, with some suggesting it could be the perfect opportunity for the band, their followers, and the crew to get geared up for their first performance in Cardiff. One hopeful fan posed the question on the forum: “Does anyone [reckon] the band will have a pre tour show before Cardiff possibly in May?

“I only thought this because Blur had a few ‘warm up’ shows before their actual tour began. ” Blur hosted four small gigs ahead of their massive Wembley Stadium performances in 2023.

Despite this, the band and their representatives have not given any indication there will be a pre-show performance — and even if such a rehearsal gig were to happen, sceptics doubt it would be as accessible as their official tour dates.

A Reddit user said: “I think there is a fair chance they do a small warm up similar to how The Stones Roses played Warrington Town Hall before they kicked off their reunion tour in 2012.

“It gives not just the band an opportunity to warm up and possibly fine tune the setlist, but also allows the production crew to battle test things like lighting/video queues and changes in the mix prior to taking the show on the road.

“If this happens I imagine it’ll be lottery type deal on tickets and it will be announced very early on the day of the show. “

Another fan expressed their hopers that Oasis “do something similar to this. “

The original poster chimed in: “I guess it does make sense from the production side of things. It would also be a great sneak peak of what’s to come and to finally see the two of them on stage together publicly. “

Another fan floated the idea of using a ballot system for tickets if a warm-up gig were to happen, claiming it was ‘almost certain’ despite no official word from the band.

A commenter speculated: “Almost certainly they will. It will be friends and smiley and maybe a few lucky if fans I guess. No chance they play their first gig in 16 years in front of 80,000 people in the mobile phone era. “

Some supporters are crossing their fingers that the band will avoid any performances until the Cardiff gig on July 4.

One shared their hopes: “I hope they don’t. I like the mystique that’s been surrounding the reunion. I want to see them walk on stage for the very 1st time together since 2009. The crowd is going to go completely insane! I think they secretly want that feeling as well. “

Another added: “No they will not, no chance. “

Despite the divided reactions among fans, some have pointed out that it would be absolutely “mental” to dive into a sold-out gig without any warm-up performances.
