Brooklyn Beckham made a sharp comment that appeared to cut his famous father out of his history as he seemed to make his feelings clear during a joint interview with wife Nicola Peltz.
The eldest Beckham child has apparently distanced himself from his famous family following a string of disagreements, and a surprising new comment implies he now attempts to erase his footballer father from his personal history.
Initially, seemed to be extending an olive branch to his father with the name of his new hot sauce range, Cloud23, previously claimed to be a "warm nod" to their father-son bond.
Responding to a recent customer inquiry on the official website, a member of Brooklyn's team stated: "The 23 included in our brand is a warm nod to Brooklyn's father, David Beckham, who wore number 23 while playing for Real Madrid and LA Galaxy, inspired by NBA legend Michael Jordan."
However, Brooklyn himself offered a starkly different explanation for the inspiration behind the branding, dashing fans' hopes for a peace offering anytime soon, reports .
In an April interview with Glamour Germany, Brooklyn claimed: "The 23 stands for our engagement date and my age back then."
Notably, there was no mention of his dad David Beckham, a sporting icon who is also absent from the official Cloud23 website.
During the interview, Brooklyn, now 26, showcased his numerous tattoos, a trait he shares with his father. Several of these body art pieces pay tribute to his parents and younger siblings.
This includes the year David was born, 1975, tattooed on his thumb, whilst 'mama's boy' is proudly displayed across his chest. His body also showcases the initials DVBRCH, unmistakably symbolising parents David and Victoria, his own name Brooklyn, and those of his siblings Romeo, Cruz and Harper.
The talk about Brooklyn's tattoos was less about these personal symbols, and more centred around his tributes to wife Nicola and her family. Brooklyn revealed to the magazine: "Some mean a lot to me, like Nicola's eyes on my neck or our wedding vows."
Nicola, 30, added: "I love it when Brooklyn gets tattoos that have a special story. He also got my mother's rosary tattooed on his hand."
These comments come as senior therapist and award-winner Sally Baker gave her insights on the speculated family rift.
She told the Mirror how some couples become even closer in the face of family rows in a bid to "prove their allegiance to each other".
Addressing the apparent challenge of defining themselves separately from the Beckham brand, Sally shared: "A newly married couple are forging their identity apart from their family of origin.
"They cannot entertain the idea that they might be in the wrong or have behaved badly. To consider that takes confidence in themselves as a couple.
"That comes with time and experience, but until then, offspring can seem blinkered and casually unkind as they carve their own path. Thankfully, most family bonds are strong and enduring.
"However much pain has been inflicted, families are forgiving and patiently wait for their adult child to rejoin the fold, with or without their partner in tow," she concluded.
Brooklyn's representatives have been contacted for comment.
