Romeo Beckham and his brother Cruz have shown they’re firmly standing together in the wake of Brooklyn’s astonishing statement, as they enjoyed a double date with their girlfriends in Paris on Saturday.
The pair headed out for dinner at Kaspia restaurant with their respective partners Kim Turnbull and Jackie Apostel during Men’s Fashion Week after Brooklyn released a six-page post where he revealed he has no wishes to reconcile with his family, and called his parents ‘controlling and manipulative’.
It’s said that Brooklyn’s comments have devastated his famous family, and while none of the Beckham clan have addressed his comments directly, both David and Victoria shared public comments reflecting on ‘great memories’ over the weekend.
Despite the recent frenzy around the Beckham family feud, Romeo and Cruz enjoyed some downtime together.
Kim opted for an eye-catching black mini dress with a chest cut-out, while Jackie was dressed in a fun mustard yellow dress with a brown leather bomber jacket.
It comes as sources said on Saturday that Victoria feels ‘betrayed’ by Brooklyn’s bombshell statement and dancing revelations after her years spent protecting him from ‘dark stories’.

Over the years, Victoria has worked hard to protect Brooklyn from stories in the past that ‘did not always paint him in the best of lights’.
A source has now said that the fashion designer would usually avoid a family fall-out but feels her son and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, have been ‘unreasonable’.
They said: ‘Victoria feels betrayed because she’s done everything she can to make them both feel welcome and love Nicola like another daughter.’
The source added to The Mirror: ‘But she feels it’s been thrown back in her face. She would normally do anything to avoid a family fallout, but she thinks they’re both being unreasonable.’
On Saturday, Victoria and David reflected on ‘great memories’ with their families in their first public social media statements since Brooklyn’s post.
British photographer Platon posted throwback images from 2006, including one snap showing former footballer David shirtless with Brooklyn’s name tattooed on his back.
The photographer also shared an insight of the day he shot David, 50, who was playing for Real Madrid at the time.
He penned alongside the snaps: ‘Victoria arrived with Brooklyn, who was seven years old, Romeo, who was four and Cruz, who was just a baby. Brooklyn and Romeo charged into the studio wearing football kits, kicking balls, doing headers and other tricks.

On Saturday, Victoria and David reflected on ‘great memories’ with their families in their first public social media statements since Brooklyn’s post
‘While Victoria was busy with the children, I started work with David. At one point, Brooklyn ran on set with his football under his arm and hugged his dad’s right leg. Then, Romeo joined his older brother.
‘Then, Victoria also appeared with baby Cruz in her arms. The whole family turned away from us for a private heartfelt group hug. It was a poignant thing to see—this spontaneous moment of affection happening on a giant photography set in front of 60 people.
‘Celebrity comes with a heavy price and often it is family members who also pay.’
The Beckhams spotted the touching post and replied underneath, with David commenting: ‘Good memories.’
Former Spice Girl Victoria then said: ‘Brings back great memories!’
Platon concluded his post of David’s snap: ‘In this picture, although David stands alone, we see the love of his children tattooed onto his back. Family is everything. David Beckham, I salute you.’
In his scathing statement this week, Brooklyn accused his parents Victoria, 51, and David, 50, of trying to ruin his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz, 30, and said his mother danced ‘inappropriately’ on him during his 2022 nuptials to the billionaire heiress.
However, their wedding DJ Fat Tony appeared on ITV’s This Morning on Friday to reveal exactly what happened during the reception.

Meanwhile Romeo Beckham was spotted in Paris on the same day as his parents’ comments on the throwback post

Cruz, who announced his first ever tour on Friday, was also spotted in the French capital with his girlfriend Jackie Apostel
The 60-year-old branded the incident ‘really awkward’ and confirmed that Nicola fled the reception in tears.
Tony, a longtime friend of the Beckhams, claimed that Marc Anthony was to blame, revealing the musician had called Victoria to the dance floor with her son and instructed him, ‘place your hands on your mother’s hips’.
He explained: ‘There was no slut-dropping, there was no PVC cat suits, no Spice Girl action!
‘The word ‘inappropriate’, why I said it was as well, it was the timing, this is what happened.’
Tony continued: ‘What happened was, basically, Marc Anthony was performing on stage, he then called Brooklyn onto stage.
‘Brooklyn went on to the stage, and the next minute everyone’s expecting Nicola to go up and do the first dance, and then Marc asked for the most beautiful woman in the room to come to the stage – and then he says ‘Victoria, come to the stage’.’
He revealed that Brooklyn looked ‘devastated’ at the fact his first dance was with Victoria and not his wife, adding that Nicola left the room ‘crying her eyes out’.
Speaking exclusively to the Daily Mail, the DJ said at one point Brooklyn’s hands were on his mother’s waist while her arms were placed around his neck.
‘The timing was inappropriate for me. It was meant to be a bride and groom’s moment,’ he told us.

Their wedding DJ Fat Tony finally recounted the exact details of the dance during an appearance on This Morning
‘It was in the heat of the moment.
‘Brooklyn left right after the dance. Nicola left the room and afterwards he went after her.
‘Nicola’s family left, they went after their daughter.
‘Marc Anthony is a latin singer. It was a love song.’
When asked if Brooklyn had his hands on Victoria’s hips, he said: ‘Well, yeah. It was slow dancing, it wasn’t like some samba number. Victoria had her arms around his neck.’
He went on: ‘Brooklyn is a friend of mine. The whole situation is just awful, the way it’s played out so publicly.
‘Families are families, I don’t know what started it. At one point someone might say something publicly.’
He continued: ‘Brooklyn is upset about a lot of things, sometimes the smallest of things can become the biggest of things, because it highlights it.
‘I’m not speaking bad about either party in it, I’m just putting the narrative straight about the dance.’
