Victoria Beckham has said she and David Beckham “love our children so much” and have “always tried to be the best parents” in response to their ongoing feud with son Brooklyn Peltz Beckham.
The 51-year-old former Spice Girls star made the comments in an interview with The Wall Street Journal after Brooklyn accused his parents in a January Instagram post of “trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding” and alleging his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham had been “disrespected” by his family.
Beckham said the negative press had not affected her fashion and beauty business, adding: “I feel that ultimately people are buying my product given that the product is really good. I don’t think they’re buying my eyeliner just because it’s me.”
Brooklyn detailed specific incidents from the wedding that fueled the rift
He as well said his family values “public promotion and endorsements above all else”, adding that “family ‘love’ is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo opp”.
