Brooklyn Beckham has reached out for the first time in months to his family on social media in a heartfelt gesture amid a rift.

The eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham posted a moving message to his grandma, Sandra. He said: “Happy birthday nanny xx love you so much,” alongside two love hearts.

It’s thought to be the first time he has publicly acknowledged his family with whom he is at the centre of a bitter feud, the Mirror reports.

But insiders still believe there is no way he will bury the hatchet with his parents. A source said: “At present it feels like there is too much to overcome.”

It was reported last month how their eldest son was in London at the same time as his dad, but kept his visit a secret. A picture uploaded to Instagram showed Brooklyn sipping a pint in a pub, with bottles of his own-brand hot sauce on the table in front of him.

Friends of the Beckhams recognised the distinctive light fittings and stark green walls in the background. One pal said: “The picture was taken in London’s Wigmore pub, which is part of the Langham Hotel where the Beckhams have sometimes stayed.

“The fact that Brooklyn was in the country and failed to see any of his family was heartbreaking. And not only that, but here he was posting about it.”

Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, had flown to London for a joint photoshoot with Italian luxury fashion brand Moncler, which took place less than two miles from the Beckham family home in Holland Park.

A source revealed: “Brooklyn had kept the visit quiet from not only his mum and dad but his siblings and extended family. It was terribly sad that he had flown thousands of miles to London and hadn’t engaged at all. It would have been very easy to meet up.”

Another Instagram post, made on May 16, showed Brooklyn with Nicola’s late grandmother to mark the anniversary of her death. He captioned it: “I miss you and will love you forever.”

A friend said: “Brooklyn’s heart is of course in the right place…but it hasn’t gone unnoticed how all the while he is posting about Nicola’s family he is silent about his own, including his own grandfather whose birthday it was last week.”
