Brooklyn Beckham May Pull Off the Ultimate Prince Harry Stunt in Latest Move
History has a funny way of repeating itself, especially in the world of the rich and famous. Just three years after Prince Harry sent shockwaves through the monarchy with his memoir Spare, Brooklyn Beckham appears ready to tell his own version of life inside a global dynasty.
Following a series of explosive social media posts where Brooklyn, 26, announced he was cutting ties with parents David and Victoria, rumors are swirling that a seven-figure book deal is already on the table. Brooklyn isn't just following the tell-all trend; he may have a royal mentor in his corner. Reports suggest that Prince Harry has been coaching the eldest Beckham son on how to navigate a public family rift.
The Duke of Sussex has reportedly encouraged Brooklyn to be "controlled, thoughtful, and human" with his story, warning him that while the freedom of speaking out is real, the family fallout is permanent, per Rob Shuter’s substack. Sources even claim Harry has helped bridge the gap between Brooklyn and his own publisher, Penguin Random House, the firm behind Spare. At the heart of Brooklyn’s grievances is the 2022 wedding that was meant to be his and Nicola Peltz’s dream day.
In his statement, Brooklyn alleged that his mother, Victoria, "hijacked" their planned first dance. Instead of a romantic moment with his new bride, Brooklyn claims he was pulled into an uncomfortable dance with his mother in front of 500 guests. The incident left the couple so "humiliated" that they reportedly felt the need to renew their vows just to wash away the "anxiety and embarrassment" of the original ceremony. For Brooklyn, the rift goes deeper than a single dance.
The aspiring chef claimed he had been “controlled by a family that values public promotion above all else.” From claims of being bribed to sign away rights to his own name to allegations that Victoria "disrespected" Nicola, the bridge between the two families appears to be well and truly burnt. As publishers are "clamouring" for a 300-page manuscript, an insider told The Sun that firms have "no loyalty" to David and Victoria and “are happy to pay for Brooklyn to get everything off his chest.” Whether it’s an Oprah-style interview or a hardback memoir, it seems Brooklyn Beckham is finally ready to step out from his father’s shadow—even if it means leaving the family name behind.
