Brooklyn Beckham’s public feud with parents deepens as Lily Allen shares cryptic artwork
A public family dispute between Brooklyn Beckham and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, escalated on January 19, 2026. That same day, singer Lily Allen shared an artwork featuring Brooklyn, adding another layer to the unfolding story. The conflict centres on long-standing tensions, with Brooklyn accusing his parents of interference and control.
Brooklyn Beckham took to Instagram Stories on January 19, 2026, to address the ongoing feud. He claimed his parents had tried to 'ruin' his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz Beckham before their April 2022 wedding. The statement also accused them of spreading controlled narratives in the media.
He revealed feeling 'rejected' during his father’s 50th birthday celebration in May 2025. Later, he alleged, his family travelled to Los Angeles but 'refused' to meet him at all. Meanwhile, Lily Allen posted a painting of Brooklyn on her Instagram Stories the same day. The artwork, created by Spanish painter Nieves González, mirrored Allen’s West End Girl album cover—featuring Allen in a blue polka-dot outfit. Allen’s album drew inspiration from her own estranged relationship with actor David Harbour. Fans quickly reacted on social media, with many supporting Brooklyn’s decision to set boundaries with his family.
The dispute remains unresolved, with Brooklyn’s public statement marking a clear divide. Social media responses suggest divided opinions, though some back his choice to speak out. The artwork shared by Allen, though unrelated to the feud, added unexpected attention to the ongoing family tensions.
