Summarize and humanize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs in EnglishAs David and Victoria Beckham’s firstborn, Brooklyn has always been extraordinarily close to his parents.In awe of his footballing legend father and supportive of his popstar-turned-fashion designer mother, for years they were a tight, affectionate unit, so much so it seemed that Brooklyn – nickname Buster – would never fly the nest.Of course, all that changed when the now 26-year-old married beautiful American heiress Nicola Peltz in 2022.After a bumpy start, with rumours swirling of a rift between the two most important women in Brooklyn’s life – his mother and his wife – Nicola and Victoria seemed to settle their differences and for two years everything appeared calm and convivial.Now, however, eyebrows have been raised again after Brooklyn and Nicola were notably absent from a gathering in Miami this week to celebrate David’s impending 50th birthday.While his three siblings were present, with brothers Romeo and Cruz bringing their girlfriends Kim Turnbull and Jackie Apostel along to the star-studded bash at Cipriani Downtown restaurant, Brooklyn and Nicola were in Los Angeles – 2,000 miles away but a mere four-hour hop in a private jet.Sources close to the family cited ‘work commitments’ – Brooklyn is still trying to make his name in the food industry – and stressed that David and Victoria knew the pair wouldn’t be there.But others suggest a new rift has opened up – with girlfriend trouble once again the reported cause. Brooklyn Beckham raised eyebrows when he was notably absent from his father David’s 50th birthday celebration in Florida last weekend Brooklyn also missed the pre-birthday family holiday in Las Vegas (left to right: Romeo, Victoria, David, Harper, Cruz) Brooklyn Beckham rides a camel alongside wife Nicola Peltz as part of a desert safari in Abu Dhabi on December 7, 2024This time, the ‘significant other’ said to be causing ructions is not Nicola, but Romeo’s new girlfriend Kim, 23.Romeo, 22, ‘went public’ with the London-born model and DJ in December last year, but Brooklyn is believed to disapprove of the match, sparking tension between the brothers.Brooklyn is said to know Kim through his good friend, Rocco Ritchie – Guy and Madonna’s son – whom she dated years ago.When approached by the Mail, a source close to the Beckhams played down the rumours, calling them ‘silly’, but others say David and Victoria will be devastated by any friction between their beloved boys.Brooklyn’s absence was particularly noticeable this week, not just because of the significance of David’s ‘big’ birthday, but also given the A-listers on the guest list: Brooklyn is known to love rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous.But, feud or no feud, it is far from the first time he’s absented himself from big family occasions over the past year.In fact, we calculate he’s missed a total of 11 events. The first of these was David’s 49th birthday dinner in May last year, held at the Canton Blue restaurant at the 5-star London hotel, The Peninsula.Later that month the family also celebrated the birthday of Victoria’s father Anthony Adams, getting the extended family together for a low-key meal. Last month Brooklyn Beckham (right) unveiled another career path as a racing driver. He is pictured with friend Mitch Evans (left) of New Zealand and Jaguar TCS Racing The self-proclaimed entrepreneur revealed it took him seven times to pass his driving theory test in the UK ‘I think I’ve tried a few things and finally found what I absolutely love, I’ve always been a fan of racing and really enjoyed it. It’s what I’m passionate about,’ Brooklyn has revealed Brooklyn, again, was a no-show. Victoria even went so far as to caption her Instagram post marking the evening: ‘Missing you @BrooklynPeltzBeckham.’During July and August last year the Beckhams went on a few family holidays – with Brooklyn still nowhere to be seen. All three other children were there for the trips to Muskoka in Canada and then sailing around the European coast on the family’s £16 million yacht.Victoria again said how much she was missing her eldest child and this time included Nicola in the post. ‘Missing you @brooklynpeltzbeckham @nicolaannepeltzbeckham,’ she wrote.‘Special family moments in Muskoka,’ she wrote on another, showing the rest of the family on a boat, wreathed in smiles.He was also absent from Romeo’s 22nd birthday party in London in September last year – perhaps understandable given the distance between them – but then didn’t attend Romeo’s other party in Vegas either.Weeks later, in October, when the family jetted to Miami to cheer on David’s football team Inter Miami winning the Supporters Shield trophy, Brooklyn and Nicola were once again missing in action – despite the couple, who have a £10 million mansion in the city, living virtually on the doorstep.In January this year, David marked the launch of his new BOSS ONE bodywear campaign for Hugo Boss with a glitzy party in London.Again, while his three youngest offspring were in attendance, there was no sign of his eldest son. The 26-year-old is married to actress and filmmaker Nicola Peltz A sultry shot of Nicola Peltz taken by her husband Brooklyn BeckhamIn the family diary two months later was Paris Fashion Week, always a big event for Victoria, who likes to have her nearest and dearest on the front row.Brooklyn must have known how much his presence would mean to his mother – but he didn’t join the rest of the family, which included Romeo and Kim and Cruz and Jackie, for Victoria’s autumn/winter 2025 show on March 9.On the previous day, Brooklyn had instead attended the Natural Products Expo West convention in California with a stall to promote Cloud23, his bottled hot sauce range.Victoria also seemed to have a slight dig, posting a picture of the the family gathered in Paris, alongside their other halves, plus daughter Harper, 13, and David, with the caption: ‘I love you so much . . . Thank you all for coming out to support me xxx’.But despite Brooklyn not attending his mum’s biggest night, he and his wife did, however, fly into London in the weeks prior to attend another British designer show – this time Burberry.Promoting the night on Instagram, he and Nicola posed for photos in full Burberry outfits.Nicola captioned her post: ‘Thank you so much for having us at your beautiful show @burberry what a fun night.’And so we come to Tuesday, when David began his 50th birthday celebrations a month early with a black-tie party at Cipriani Downtown Miami. It was a lively night. Footballers Lionel Messi, Luis Suárez, Jordi Alba and Sergio Busquets – all of whom now play for Inter Miami – were there. Nicola Peltz with Brooklyn Beckham during their wedding weekend in Palm Beach back in 2023 Basketball legend Shaquille O’Neal, a close friend of David’s, was in attendance until the early hours, as were supermodel Cindy Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber.American football star Tom Brady – former husband of supermodel Gisele Bündchen – and filmmaker Justin Theroux – who was previously married to actress Jennifer Aniston – also partied late into the night, as did Victoria, who apparently barely left the dancefloor as the DJs pumped out ‘old school classics’.Perhaps taking on the role of his eldest brother, Romeo took it upon himself to give a speech honouring his father.One picture showed Romeo – in a black tuxedo – standing with a microphone in hand and reading from a notecard.While it isn’t known what he said, David was visibly overcome with emotion listening to his words and flashed a warm smile at his second son.Victoria, 50, also reached across to put her hand on David’s knee while she gazed lovingly up at Romeo during the speech.It must be said that Posh and Becks have seen their eldest son Brooklyn a few times throughout the year.They supported him at the London launch of his Cloud23 sauce in October, alongside Nicola, Harper and Cruz. ‘I love you guys so so much xx Thank you for supporting,’ Brooklyn wrote on Instagram. The couple posted a shot of them smooching in the snow to social media It was the £3 million celebrity-packed ‘dream wedding’ which united a billionaire’s daughter with the son of a sporting icon – and appeared flawless in the glossy pages of Vogue magazine. But behind the scenes, Brooklyn Beckham’s wedding to heiress Nicola Peltz, was allegedly so chaotic that even the bride’s father called it a ‘s*** show’They also saw each other over Christmas in Miami. And Victoria’s fashion show in Paris last September saw the whole family get together on the front row, with Brooklyn and Nicola, Romeo, Cruz, Jackie, Harper and, of course, David.Brooklyn flew in for his mum’s 50th birthday last April, too.But his absences at a number of key events over the past year haven’t gone unnoticed by Beckham fans. ‘Where is Brooklyn and wife?’, one commented on David’s early birthday celebrations. ‘Where is Brooklyn?’, another wrote in regard to David’s Hugo Boss party.The Beckhams have worked hard to rebuild relations with their eldest son since rumours of a fall-out first started following his and Nicola’s multi-million dollar wedding in April 2022.Whispers of ructions began when it was claimed that Nicola refused to wear one of Victoria’s eponymous designs – opting instead for a custom Valentino Haute Couture gown for her big day.Insiders alleged Victoria was displeased with Nicola’s reluctance to involve her in the plans for the lavish affair.While Nicola denied there was a ‘feud’, she explained that Victoria’s atelier simply hadn’t had time to make the dress, as she insisted: ‘No family is perfect.’Nicola and Brooklyn were hardly seen with the Beckham family in the months following. However, they managed to smooth things out, with friends saying that ‘time was a great healer’. Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz on a weekend away together in Santa BarbaraNicola and Victoria are said to be very close and the Beckhams are believed to be ‘relieved’ that they are now on good terms with their daughter-in-law.Victoria and David also flew to Los Angeles in February 2024 to support Nicola at the premiere of her film, Lola, to which she loyally wore a bespoke Victoria Beckham two-piece.‘Victoria and David are so supportive of Brooklyn and Nicola’s careers,’ said a friend of the family. ‘They take immense joy from their success and are always very understanding of them missing out on their big family occasions.‘They get that they are adults with their own lives and commitments. They were young once and would jet around the world pleasing themselves as they carved out their own brands.’Certainly, it’s thought another factor behind the young couple’s absence from recent events is the fact they want to branch out on their own.Brooklyn, who has dabbled in many fields, including an early foray into photography, is now focused on breaking into the food industry. Since launching his hot sauce business, he has been busy attending trade shows for natural and organic products.He and Nicola also do a lot of travelling as a couple: last week they were in Santa Monica for a week of horse riding and trips to the beach. In December they went to Abu Dhabi.Now dad David has started a month of celebrations for his milestone birthday, which falls on May 2. It is thought Brooklyn and his wife are expected to attend some of the festivities.Family is, after-all, still incredibly important to him. As a friend of the star said: ‘Brooklyn wouldn’t miss his dad’s actual birthday for the world,’
