Taking to Instagram Stories on Sunday, December 21, Cruz directly disputed reports that David Beckham and Victoria Beckham had unfollowed their eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham. According to Cruz, the situation was not only misunderstood but flipped entirely.
Sharing a screenshot of a Daily Mail article, the London native wrote:
“NOT TRUE. My mum and dad would never unfollow their son. Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked… as did I.”
The post immediately reframed the narrative, suggesting that the family’s Instagram disconnect stemmed from blocking rather than unfollowing. Instagram does not notify users when they are blocked, though the action automatically removes both parties from each other’s follower lists.
The clarification comes amid ongoing chatter about tension within the Beckham clan, particularly following Brooklyn and wife Nicola Peltz missing several family gatherings earlier this year.
As of now, David and Victoria have not publicly commented, but Cruz’s message leaves little room for doubt about where he stands.
