Beckhams 'inconsolable' after Brooklyn's advert joke

Beckhams 'inconsolable' after Brooklyn's advert joke

David and Victoria Beckham are reportedly 'devastated and inconsolable' after their son Brooklyn appeared in a World Cup advert. The 27-year-old Brooklyn quipped about viewing the FIFA World Cup 2026 on television, discarding event passes alongside unread mail, thereby downplaying his family's estrangement. This came after his 14-year-old sister Harper's unsuccessful journey to his Los Angeles dwelling, which Brooklyn's representatives alleged had been 'choreographed'.
