David Beckham, along with his sons Romeo and Cruz, embraced the holiday spirit by sporting Santa hats as they prepared for Christmas festivities. Meanwhile, Brooklyn, the eldest son, remains distanced from the family, hinting at ongoing tensions with a subtle jab.

This festive season carries a mix of emotions for the Beckham family, as Brooklyn, now 26, is noticeably missing. Reports suggest he has blocked his family on Instagram, highlighting their unresolved disputes.

Despite the family rift, David, 50, and Victoria, 51, have chosen to focus on celebrating with their other children: Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, ensuring the holiday spirit remains intact.

Recently, David was seen selecting the family’s Christmas tree, and the Beckhams gathered for a joyful Christmas Eve, with Cruz taking on the role of cocktail mixer for the evening.

In a series of new photographs, David is captured joyfully embracing his sons, all wearing Santa hats, showcasing their festive cheer.

The proud dad was visibly beaming as Romeo placed his arm on his shoulder while Cruz enjoyed a sip of his cocktail creation.

The aspiring chef raised eyebrows with the video, shared just days after brother Cruz broke his silence on Brooklyn blocking the entire family on Instagram.

In the clip posted to his Cloud23 hot source TikTok account, Brooklyn is seen strolling through a city as Lady Gaga’s Telephone plays in the background.

Notably, he selected the lyric ‘sorry I cannot hear you I’m kinda busy’ to accompany the footage, highlighting the line in bold text.

He then moved on to promote his hot sauce, leaving fans to speculate over the timing and message behind the post.

The Beckhams believe that he has blocked them on social media in a move that appears to be a sign of his ‘complete estrangement’ from his family.

Friends say that it is inconceivable that they would make a decision not to follow the influencer.

‘David and Victoria will never stop loving Brooklyn,’ said a source close to the couple.

‘They will always be here for him and they always want him to know that, they are devastated at this fall out.

‘So far from this being them, it appears that Brooklyn has blocked them to show them that’s it, this is final.

‘It is very clear that this is a sign of his complete estrangement from his family.

‘For David and Victoria it was their last connection to Brooklyn as he has made it very clear he doesn’t want to talk to them anymore, they haven’t spoken for months and months now.

‘By following him it was a message to him that they still love him and still want to follow his life. Now they can’t do that, but it’s not their doing.’ 

Daily Mail previously revealed how Brooklyn would spend this Christmas with Nicola and her family in Miami, Florida.

A source said: ‘Brooklyn and Nicola decided they would be spending this Christmas with her family. Her parents are really excited to have them.’
