Brooklyn Beckham has unveiled his latest cookery video – with a seemingly unlikely influence for his most recent creation in the form of Meghan Markle.
The son of David and Victoria, 26, took to Instagram to share a tutorial on making jam, as his feud with his parents rumbles on amid allegations of tension between the aspiring chef and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, against the famous couple.
Jam has been a hot topic of late, as Meghan hit headlines earlier this year for unveiling her own pricey raspberry jam, which is sold under her name, the Duchess of Sussex, by her As ever brand at a whopping £6.50 a jar.
While Meghan has been cashing in on her royal name to sell the spread, Brooklyn’s efforts were merely to teach his followers how to mimic his recipe, however he has capitalised on his culinary passion elsewhere with his hot sauce range.
His conserve-based inspiration comes after it was claimed that Prince Harry and Meghan are ‘secretly supporting’ Brooklyn and Nicola because of their ‘similar family feuds’ and have met up to discuss their issues.

While Brooklyn’s jam was born of a traditional recipe, Meghan’s As Ever raspberry spread – is not technically a jam because of its high fruit content.
Her jam is made from: ‘Raspberries, organic pure cane sugar, organic lemon juice concentrate and fruit pectin’.
She revealed for the first time in February that ‘jam is my jam’ – and recorded a video explaining why those who know her best are aware of her secret love of making jam.
When she first released 50 fruit spreads and sent them to her nearest and dearest friends she was careful to point out that each one was homemade at her kitchen table using her own recipe.
On her Netflix show With Love, Meghan, she described harvesting berries in her kitchen, making small-batch jars, saying: ‘I did save one of 50 for my mom.’

Meghan and Nicola are said to have had a ‘deep and meaningful’ chat and share a bond after being accused by critics of being ‘homewreckers’ and women who ‘tear apart their husbands’ families’.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had the couple over for dinner at their mansion in Montecito, California back in May.
Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, who live 90 minutes away in LA, have received ‘unwavering support’ from Harry and Meghan who reportedly feel ’empathetic’ towards them amid the younger couple’s tensions with David and Victoria Beckham.
‘Brooklyn and Nicola had a wonderful time and found Harry and Meghan to be particularly kind, caring and generous’, one source said today.
The Duchess of Sussex ‘has a lot of sympathy for her’ because both women have been branded ‘homewreckers’, another source familiar with the dinner claimed.

‘There was shared common ground’, the insider claimed.
‘Nicola and Meghan also had a bit of a “deep n’ meaningful” as obviously both women have been positioned in the media as homewreckers – the women to tear apart their husbands’ families.
‘Harry and Meghan were very empathetic and very kind to them both. Harry was fully aware of the situation and offered Brooklyn his unwavering support as someone who has been through similar.
The Sussexes have apparently swapped mobile numbers with the couple amid the fallout with Brooklyn’s family being dubbed Beckxit after Harry and Meghan’s own messy feud with the prince’s British family.
The Montecito dinner could infuriate David and Victoria who are said to have fallen out with the Sussexes in a row over allegations of leaking stories to the press.
Earlier in the week, Brooklyn made another thinly veiled jibe at his family during a new video with renowned chef Michel Roux Jr.

He jetted to London from his Los Angeles home to film the video in the Wigmore restaurant kitchen at the Langham Hotel, after spending a limited amount of time in the UK this year.
During a clip shared to his Instagram page, Brooklyn couldn’t resist taking a swipe at his estranged family as he insisted the meal was the only thing he’d fly back for.
Brooklyn and his family were last pictured together on Boxing Day last year and he has seemingly not spent any time with them in the UK since then.
