BROOKLYN Beckham is set to miss his mum Victoria’s 52nd birthday celebrations and her big TIME 100 honour as his feud with his parents worsens.

The eldest Beckham son, 27, has distanced himself from key family milestones following a bitter fallout with Victoria and David.

Sources reveal the rift has escalated beyond a simple disagreement, with Brooklyn drawing firm boundaries that rule out any quick reconciliation.

His absence from the birthday bash and the prestigious career accolade underlines just how deep the family fracture runs.

Brooklyn’s public accusations earlier this year against his parents over his wedding and personal life have only made matters worse.

He claimed Victoria hijacked his first dance with wife Nicola Peltz and withdrew from designing her wedding dress at the last minute.

The star also accused his parents of controlling the “Brand Beckham” tightly, sparking fresh tensions.

An insider said, “Brooklyn’s allegations marked a real turning point – what had been private was suddenly public, changing the dynamic entirely.”

Victoria has addressed the situation without naming Brooklyn, saying she and David have always tried to “protect and love our children.”

Meanwhile, communication between Brooklyn and his parents has reportedly broken down completely, with contact now formal and distant.

Brooklyn is focused on his own life and marriage, reportedly insisting his parents communicate only through lawyers.

A source added, “He seems determined to follow his own direction, even if it means missing key family occasions.” The Beckham family drama shows no sign of easing, leaving fans wondering if these milestones will ever be celebrated together again.
