Cruz Beckham has seemingly attempted to offer an olive branch to his estranged brother Brooklyn after the oldest sibling of the famous clan removed himself from his family’s lives.
Over the weekend, 21-year-old Cruz posted a throwback photo on Instagram featuring himself and his older brothers, Romeo and Brooklyn, when they were children.
Aspiring chef Brooklyn, 27, hasn’t spoken to his parents, David and Victoria, his sister Harper, or his brothers for more than a year.
After widespread reports of a family rift since his wedding to Nicola Peltz in 2022, the 27-year-old finally broke the family’s silence earlier this year with a scathing social media statement about the Beckhams.

He claimed in January that his parents had tried to “ruin” his relationship and that Victoria had deliberately upset his new wife on their wedding day, spoiling the occasion for both of them.
Ever since, the Beckhams have remained publicly silent on the matter but have shared a few instances of an apparent attempt at reconciliation online.
Brooklyn has since blocked his family on social media and instructed his parents only to contact him through his lawyers.
However, his younger brother appears to miss Brooklyn being in his life, and, taking to Instagram on Sunday, he included the old photo in a series of posts.
Sharing snaps from his holiday with girlfriend Jackie Apolstel, 30, Cruz also added a childhood photo, prompting some emotional responses from fans in the comments section.
One wrote: “Brothers,” alongside a heart emoji, while a second added: “Brothers in Arms. I lost my brother and sister, life is too short! Family is everything! I hope all you guys reconnect, none of all the noise matters.”
“Brooklyn is actually smiling there too… a very sweet photo,” another follower penned.
Another echoed: “That picture. Brothers so wonderful.” (sic)

GETTY“Let’s hope Brooklyn can start to behave as maturely as his siblings,” someone else wrote.
However, others appeared to sympathise with Brooklyn, with one person simply posting: “He doesn’t like you.”
Someone else shared: “Pic 4,” referencing the photo in the carousel of snaps that featured the three brothers, along with a series of heart emojis.
“How beautiful the Beckham Boys,” one more added. (sic)
Despite other examples of the family apparently reaching out to him, it seems Brooklyn remains uninterested in reuniting with them for now.
It is understood that Brooklyn and Nicola now plan to hold their wedding anniversary on the day they got their vows renewed instead.
Speaking to The Sun, a source recently stated that the day the pair actually tied the knot “is not an occasion they look back on fondly.”
They added: “Nicola ended up in tears. It’s not something they want to be reminded of.”
