David and Victoria Beckham have been blocked on social media by their eldest son Brooklyn, with the family rift reportedly deepening as sources suggest he and his wife will spend Christmas in the United States rather than returning to the UK.

Brooklyn Beckham, 26, has been absent from family gatherings since last December. Tensions are widely believed to have stemmed from his wife, Nicola Peltz, not wearing a wedding dress designed by Victoria for their 2022 wedding, and the couple allegedly not seating the Beckhams at the main family table during the ceremony.
In July, Brooklyn and Nicola were unfollowed on Instagram by his brothers, Romeo and Cruz.

On Monday, reports emerged that David and Victoria had unfollowed Brooklyn on Instagram. The youngest son, Cruz, later reposted a news article about it, adding: "Not true, my mom and dad would never unfollow their son... Let’s get the facts right. They woke up blocked . . . as did I.." This marks the first time a family member has publicly addressed the estrangement.
The Beckhams traditionally hang Christmas stockings embroidered with their children's names at their Cotswolds estate. While Brooklyn's stocking is reportedly still hung this year, it is believed he and Nicola will remain in the US for the holidays.
