Victoria Beckham Delivers an Emotional Finale at Paris Fashion Week Show

The Beckham family made its familiar twice-yearly trip to Paris to support Victoria as she unveiled her latest collection during Paris Fashion Week.

David Beckham was seated prominently in the front row with his children and their partners, proudly watching Victoria’s show at the Conciergerie on Boulevard du Palais. The historic venue was once a medieval royal residence before later becoming a prison during the French Revolution.

Victoria, 52, appeared visibly moved as she took her final bow, dressed in an elegant chocolate-brown suit.

In keeping with the family’s coordinated fashion tradition, Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel, Romeo’s partner Kim Turnbull and Harper all wore pieces from Victoria Beckham’s fashion label.

Friends said the family were delighted to be together for the occasion, although Brooklyn Beckham’s absence was impossible to overlook. Before the family feud, he would have been expected to support his mother at one of her most important fashion events.

Hours before the show, David appeared to extend another gesture toward his eldest son by liking a video of Brooklyn and Nicola at the MESSIKA show. However, the apparent olive branch did not lead to a reunion.

Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz were not present at Victoria’s show last summer or the previous year. Instead, only a day earlier, they had been celebrating at the Grand Palais, just over a mile from the Beckham family’s gathering.

Victoria reportedly did not arrive in Paris until Friday. Meanwhile, her son Romeo, who is also believed to be estranged from Brooklyn, was enjoying an evening at the Plaza Athénée with Spanish tennis star Carlos Alcaraz, less than a mile away.

The brothers did not cross paths during their time in the French capital, a situation that reportedly came as a relief to the wider family.

A source said: “There would be no benefit to them unexpectedly meeting. Relations remain devastatingly strained.”

“Victoria’s Paris Fashion Week shows are incredibly special to her. She enjoys celebrating her work and having her family there means a great deal. Brooklyn is, of course, missed—he is always missed at major Beckham family gatherings. He used to love being part of them, but he has chosen for things to be this way.”

Earlier in the day, 15-year-old Harper, who is preparing to launch her skincare and beauty brand Harlo by Harper, posed for a selfie with her 24-year-old brother Romeo.

Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnbull also shared a video from her drive through Paris on Friday afternoon before dining on sushi from Matsuhisa Paris at Le Royal Monceau.

Brooklyn, 27, and Nicola, who have been married for four years, arrived in Paris earlier in the week. The couple enjoyed a date night on Wednesday before attending the Balenciaga show at the Tennis Club de Paris.

Their last appearance at one of Victoria’s fashion shows came in September 2024, only months before the family rift became public. The event was filmed for Victoria’s Netflix series, although Brooklyn and Nicola appeared only briefly.

Less than six months later, tensions escalated between Brooklyn and his parents after he reportedly skipped David’s 50th birthday celebrations.

Despite being in London they refused to join the former England captain and the rest of the family for a trip to a Bordeaux vineyard, a big do at Posh and Becks’ countryside home in the Cotswolds and a meal at Notting Hill restaurant, Core.

Friends say of the rift that there is ‘no end in sight at the moment’ after relations worsened after Brooklyn posted a six page message on Instagram where he made several heartbreaking accusation about his parents, including his Victoria hi-jacking the first dance at his wedding.

But despite her upset, former Spice Girl Victoria remained upbeat in the run up to her bit Parisienne moment

She was filmed by David as she strutted on her Stairmaster in the heels, successfully managing to balance her footwear on each step. In a video shared to Victoria’s Instagram story, David asked: ‘Darling I know it’s Fashion Week, but don’t you think you’re taking this a bit too far?

Victoria playfully responded: ‘No I’m just training.’

Her family feud aside, it has been a successful year for her. She is ecstatic after her company made a £7.3million operating profit thanks to her £104 foundation make up which was so popular it was sold out within days, leading to a waitlist list of 25,000 according to her accounts which were released last month.

Amid the ongoing family feud, David offered one more olive branch to his estranged son ahead of Victoria’s big night in the French capital.

Victoria’s fashion show has become a highlight of the glitzy event and Brooklyn and Nicola’s presence in the city sparked speculation a family reunion could be on the cards. 

David appeared to be keen to defuse the feud as he was seen liking an Instagram post of his son and Nicola attending the MESSIKA show on Thursday night. 

The clip, shared by photographer Yehiel Chekroune, showed Nicola praising the designers after watching the catwalk alongside photos of the couple at the event. 

Eagle-eyed fans noticed David liked the post, with one writing: ‘David liked this. He loves his kids. Everything’s going to be okay.’  

Elsewhere, last night, Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz, whom he married in 2022, attended the Balenciaga show.

Victoria and David’s eldest son tucked his newly grown out salt and pepper locks behind his ears as he arrived at the designer’s spring/summer 2027 show.

He chef rocked an untucked open collar white shirt with a loose black tie, a leather jacket and cargo trousers as he posed with beaming wife Nicola.

The actress meanwhile showed off her toned figure in a black tank top which she paired with low-rise skirt and stilettos.

The couple were all smiles as they arrived hand-in-hand before cosying up for photos at the event.

Meanwhile Brooklyn’s brother Cruz and girlfriend Jackie took to Instagram to show off their looks ahead of Victoria’s fashion show.

Filming themselves at their hotel, the pair brushed aside the family drama and instead gave fans a glimpse of the outfits they would be wearing to the show.

While Cruz opted for a trendy cream jumper, Jackie wowed as she went braless beneath a cut-out black gown from Victoria’s collection.  

Romeo also took to Instagram to share snaps from Paris ahead of Victoria’s fashion show.

While Victoria’s best friend Eva Longoria snapped a bouquet of flowers and a Victoria Beckham branded gift bag as she shared her excitement for the show.

Victoria’s holding company – which comprises both the fashion and beauty businesses – made an operating profit of £7.3million in the year to December 2025, a huge improvement from the previous year’s figure of a £1.5million loss.

The fashion business alone made an operating profit of £1.5million thanks to a sales boost of the grey Tilly T-shirt (£110) and 1970s style Alina jeans (£395) she wore in her Netflix documentary.

Notes to the accounts, which cover the year to December 2025, say: ‘The series generated… particularly strong momentum in denim and jersey with unit sales boosted by 48 per cent and 35 per cent respectively.’

There was also an operating profit for the first time – as proudly announced to the Financial Times earlier this month.

She told the newspaper: ‘We have all worked hard for a long time for this moment of profitability and growth.

‘We’ve been very transparent about the problems that we had in the business but have recovered and are now growing at a sensible pace. After 20 years, people don’t look at my brand as a celebrity brand any more.’

But the full position is that after tax the fashion business actually made a loss of £1.7million. What’s more, there was a new loan to the fashion business of £1.5million.

Fashion is booming, but the cost of sales is still sky-high and stands at £17.5million for the fashion business, actually an increase on the previous year. The fashion brand also owes £59million to creditors.

When you include the make-up and beauty brand the figures look better. Victoria Beckham Holdings made an operating profit of £7.3million, and after-tax made a profit of £2.4million.

Brooklyn Beckham’s statement in full

I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private. Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed.

I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life. For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family. The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.

Recently, I have seen with my own eyes the lengths that they’ll go through to place countless lies in the media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade. But I believe the truth always comes out.

My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped. My mum cancelled making Nicola’s dress in the eleventh hour despite how excited she was to wear her design, forcing her to urgently find a new dress. 

Weeks before our big day, my parents repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me into signing away the rights to my name, which would have affected me, my wife, and our future children.

They were adamant on me signing before my wedding date because then the terms of the deal would be initiated. My holdout affected the payday, and they have never treated me the same since. 

During the wedding planning, my mum went so far as to call me “evil” because Nicola and I chose to include my Nanny Sandra, and Nicola’s Naunni at our table, because they both didn’t have their husbands. Both of our parents had their own tables equally adjacent to ours.

The night before our wedding, members of my family told me that Nicola was “not blood” and “not family.” Since the moment I started standing up for myself with my family, I’ve received endless attacks from my parents, both privately and publicly, that were sent to the press on their orders.

Even my brothers were sent to attack me on social media, before they ultimately blocked me out of nowhere this last Summer. 

My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song. 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. We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment.

My wife has been consistently disrespected by my family, no matter how hard we’ve tried to come together as one. My mum has repeatedly invited women from my past into our lives in ways that were clearly intended to make us both uncomfortable.

Despite this, we still travelled to London for my dad’s birthday and were rejected for a week as we waited in our hotel room trying to plan quality time with him. He refused all of our attempts, unless it was at his big birthday party with a hundred guests and cameras at every corner.

When he finally agreed to see me, it was under the condition that Nicola wasn’t invited. It was a slap in the face. Later, when my family travelled to LA, they refused to see me at all.

My family values public promotion and endorsements above all else. Brand Beckham comes first. Family “love” is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo opp, even if it’s at the expense of our professional obligations.

We’ve gone out of our way for years to show up and support at every fashion show, every party, and every press activity to show ‘our perfect family.’ But the one time my wife asked for my mum’s support to save displaced dogs during the LA fires, my mum refused.

The narrative that my wife controls me is completely backwards. I have been controlled by my parents for most of my life. I grew up with overwhelming anxiety. For the first time in my life, since stepping away from my family, that anxiety has disappeared.

I wake up every morning grateful for the life I chose, and have found peace and relief. My wife and I do not want a life shaped by image, press, or manipulation. All we want peace, privacy and happiness for us and our future family.
