David Beckham shared snaps of his family cooking pasta from scratch on Instagram on Tuesday as his estranged son Brooklyn misses out on making more family memories.
David, 50, and his brood are currently enjoying a lavish Italian summer break to celebrate Romeo’s 23rd birthday, but budding chef Brooklyn would have loved the group activities because he regularly shares videos of his own cooking.
Brooklyn refuses to heal the family rift and failed to acknowledge his brother Romeo’s birthday publicly this week after his brother blocked him.
David treated the family to the wholesome family pasta making night at Felicia’s Home Restaurant as he shared snaps of Romeo, Cruz and Harper cooking up a storm in the kitchen.
Taking to Instagram he penned: ‘Wanted the kids to have a typical Italian family experience and WOW.’
He then shared snaps of the family tucking into their meal before budding musician Cruz, 20, got out his guitar to treat the group to some live music.
Amid their ongoing feud Brooklyn appeared to miss out on more family memories as he remained in Los Angeles with his wife Nicola Peltz.
The Beckhams are said to no longer be on speaking terms with Brooklyn, 26, and his wife, Nicola, 30, who recently renewed their vows without inviting the Beckham family.
It comes after Romeo received an outpouring of birthday tributes from his family on Monday morning as he turned 23, but his brother Brooklyn continued to ignore his family’s milestones.
Instead he posted updates from his new life in Beverly Hills with wife Nicola Peltz, as he stopped by wellness spot Pura Vida, sharing their slogan ‘another day in paradise’.
Dad David was the first to post, sharing a childhood snap of his middle son as he gushed: ‘You are kind, humble, polite, hard working and the most special person to everyone we love you so much.’
The proud dad ended the sweet post by telling the birthday boy ‘have the most special day HAPPY BIRTHDAY big boy’.
Victoria uploaded a recent snap of Romeo from their summer holiday, captioning the post: ‘Happy birthday! You are our everything, we love you so much ♥️ Your love and kindness fills our hearts every day!’
And while Romeo’s little brother Cruz and Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel also shared their love via Instagram posts.
Romeo and his dad David have a particularly close bond amid the rift, with the pair showing off their striking resemblance on Instagram on Saturday.
David took to his Instagram Stories to share a snap of Romeo rocking his signature buzz cut and a pair of black shades from his dad’s luxury eyewear brand, EYEWEAR by DAVID BECKHAM.
Captioning the shot, David cheekily asked: ‘Who wore them best?’ tagging both his son and his brand.
He then followed up with a close-up selfie of himself in the same black sunglasses and matching buzz cut – and the resemblance between the pair was uncanny.
In a follow-up caption, the proud dad wrote: ‘But great glasses @dbeyewear Romeo wins.’
It comes days after Brooklyn made another thinly veiled jibe at his family during a recent video with renowned chef Michel Roux Jr.
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 home 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.
He has only jetted back to his home country for work commitments since, including shooting a Moncler advert with his wife Nicola.
At the start of the hot sauce advert with Michel Roux Jr, the chef says: ‘We are always looking for new dishes here at the Wigmore, but based on great classics. So gammon, egg and chips is a great British classic.’
Brooklyn doesn’t specify when he is referring to, but does wistfully say: ‘I used to have this every Tuesday night. I love gammon. You can’t go wrong with gammon, egg and chips.’
While his mother has famously eaten largely the same meal of steamed fish and vegetables for decades, his father is a dab hand in the kitchen, so the gammon and chips may be something he whipped up for the children.
Once the finished dish was revealed, Roux claimed that it would be a ‘hot seller’ and had no doubt that it would be ‘flying out of the kitchen’.
Brooklyn then pointedly quipped: ‘I’m definitely going to just come to London to have that’, which seemed like a dig at his estranged family.
