Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz had a close call with his estranged parents while out for ice cream in St. Tropez.
The 27-year-old aspiring chef and his actress wife decided to indulge in a sweet treat after spending time on a yacht with his godfather, Elton John, where they are staying.
The celebrity duo was recently spotted on another yacht, anchored in St. Tropez, approximately 75 miles from their son. They later enjoyed a meal at the Cherry Restaurant, a mere five-minute stroll from the Barbarac ice-cream parlor where Brooklyn was seen.
Opting for a relaxed look, Nicola donned a micro-miniskirt, a cropped vest top, and carried a Pucci bag. Her ankle tattoo reading ‘Elijah’—which translates to ‘The Lord is my God’—was visible during their outing.
Brooklyn sported a snug white T-shirt and black shorts as they strolled alongside Elton’s husband, David Furnish, who also savored an ice cream. Later, Nicola ventured into a Jacquemus store, a brand particularly liked by his 15-year-old sister, Harper.

Brooklyn and Nicola looked laid-back and happy for the trip – seemingly unaware they were in such close quarters to his parents.
Elton’s husband and long-time friend of the Beckhams David wore a pink top while enjoying his ice cream and accompanying Brooklyn.
Once again, Brooklyn skipped his family’s annual getaway on the £16million yacht after severing ties with his parents and siblings.
Instead, he united with Elton and his husband David, where they were spotted chatting on board the vessel.
Christmas 2024 was the last time the Beckham clan were pictured with Brooklyn and Nicola before they lost all meaningful communication.
During his trip, David appeared deep in thought as he wrapped his arm around his beloved son Romeo.
Meanwhile, aspiring chef Brooklyn appeared in high spirits as he was seen laughing and giggling with Nicola.

Before arriving in St Tropez, Victoria and David visited different parts of the Balearic Islands with Romeo on their luxury £16million yacht, Seven.
The Beckhams and Elton have been pals for more than 30 years, with David affectionately calling the musician ‘Uncle Elton’ after the pair became friends in his football heyday.

Yet Elton appears to be pledging an allegiance with Brooklyn and Nicola as they enjoyed a luncheon on the sundeck.
Victoria and David recently followed the World Cup around the US with Romeo and his girlfriend Kim Turnbull, 24, Harper, Cruz, 21, and his girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 30.
Despite living across the pond, Brooklyn has avoided all family outings amid their ongoing estrangement.
In January, Brooklyn released a scathing six-page statement denouncing his parents and declared he was no longer part of ‘Brand Beckham’.
Brooklyn also claimed David and Victoria had controlled him for much of his life, attempted to drive a wedge between him and Nicola and left him embarrassed when his mother danced ‘inappropriately’ with him during the first dance at his wedding.

He has not acknowledged any of his parents’ birthdays or milestones publicly since their rift began, around the time of David’s 50th celebrations, and failed to share a post for Father’s Day this year.
It was previously reported that Brooklyn was ‘furious’ that his parents had included him in a Father’s Day post and wants them to ‘leave him alone’.
Shortly before Christmas last year, Brooklyn blocked his parents on Instagram, while his lawyers later wrote to the Beckhams’ team requesting all communication be conducted through legal representatives.
The Daily Mail contacted Brooklyn’s representatives for comment at the time.

Five months after declaring that he and his wife Nicola want privacy, Brooklyn was savaged by fans, who branded him ‘classless’ after he collaborated with the food delivery firm for the sponsored video.
In the teaser clip for the advert released on June 15, Brooklyn smirks and says: ‘You’re probably wondering why I’m watching the Fifa World Cup 2026 from home… It’s a long story.’
It has been taken as mocking parents David and Victoria with whom he no longer speaks – and profiting off their name, while friends of the Beckhams have said the pair are ‘devastated and inconsolable’ by the jibe.
