Brooklyn Beckham's DoorDash Ad Nods To Family Drama
Brooklyn Beckham is cashing in on his family drama.
On Monday, the son of soccer icon David Beckhamand Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, shared his new TV ad for DoorDash in which he subtly nodded to the fact that he's no longer speaking to his family.
"You're probably wondering why I'm watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 from home," he said, while holding tickets for the event. "It's a long story."
The commercial comes months after Brooklyn publicly cut ties with his family in a scathing Instagram announcement earlier this year after tensions surrounding his wedding came to to Nicola Peltz in 2022 came to a head.
Savvy Instagram users though, were very aware of "the long story" and sounded off in the post's comments.
"When you have to keep having digs at your family to stay relevant," said one.
"Because ur [sic] father is there and u [sic] are in no speaking terms with your parents, duh," added another.
"Obvs because you sacked off your family for your wife," said a third. "They've stopped talking about you as you wanted so maybe you should do the same."
Brooklyn's January announcement shared details from his wedding where he claimed his mother Victoria, a fashion designer, "canceled making Nicola's dress in the eleventh hour" and also "hijacked" his first dance with his wife and "danced very inappropriately on [him] in front of everyone."
He also explained that the couple no longer wished to be a part of "Brand Beckham," which supposedly required Brooklyn to sign "away the rights to my name, which would have affected me, my wife, and our future children."
"I grew up with overwhelming anxiety," he also shared in his statement. "For the first time in my life, since stepping away from my family, that anxiety has disappeared. I wake up every morning grateful for the life I chose, and have found peace and relief...My wife and I do not want a life shaped by image, press, or manipulation. All we want peace, privacy and happiness for us and our future family."

While Victoria and David have mostly stayed mum on the issue while speaking in various interviews since Brooklyn released the statement, Posh Spice talked about parenting in the public eye in April, briefly but didn't share specific details.
"We've always tried to be the best parents that we can be," she said. "And you know, we've been in the public eye for more than 30 years right now, and all we've tried to do is protect our children and love our children. And you know, that's really all I want to say about it."
The A-list parents also took to both of their Instagrams to wish Brooklyn a happy birthday in March, amid their estrangement, to which Brooklyn deemed "performative."
The rest of the family has continued to publicly document their endeavors, specifically as Brooklyn's younger brother Cruz's music career has started to flourish. David also received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame last week. Brooklyn was not present for the ceremony.
