As Victoria Beckham wowed crowds at Paris Fashion Week with her latest collection, flanked by David and their children, a subtle drama was unfolding just down the Seine. Her estranged son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola were also in the city of light, their high-profile outings suggesting more than just a tourist trip. Could this be a deliberate maneuver to stir the pot?
Ever since David and Victoria Beckham first found themselves estranged from their eldest son Brooklyn, they have usually been separated from him by the Atlantic Ocean.
Brooklyn and Nicola Near Beckhams in Paris
With the influencer and his wife Nicola Peltz setting up home in Beverly Hills, and Posh and Becks living in west London, the distance between them has meant there is little chance of their bumping into one another. But on Friday night Brooklyn, 27, and Nicola, 31, were less than a mile from both his parents and siblings as Victoria showcased her latest collection at Paris Fashion Week.
As David, Harper, Romeo and Cruz - as well as the boys' girlfriends - enjoyed their front-row catwalk seats at the Conciergerie at 2 Boulevard du Palais, Brooklyn and Nicola were enjoying a night out close to the Louvre. This time, there was just the River Seine dividing them.
Victoria, of course, is far too much of a pro to allow that to affect her show, but those who know the family wonder whether Brooklyn and Nicola were revelling in their trip to the French capital and the calendar clash. They point out that the pair's Paris sojourn was documented by a photographer from their preferred paparazzi agency. One source said: 'It feels like there is some trolling going on.
You have to wonder whether Nicola and Brooklyn are enjoying winding it all up. They made sure they were seen everywhere thanks to a certain pap firm.
Family Divide Persists Despite Close Encounters
Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham at Paris Fashion Week with their children and their partners The Beckhams' estranged son Brooklyn was less than a mile away with his wife Nicola 'The irony of that, of course, is that Brooklyn has had a go at his parents for setting up picture opportunities when all of the hallmarks are there that they are doing it themselves.
'It doesn't matter what the distance between the two sides is, there is absolutely no chance of any olive branches or anyone making up any time soon. ' While Victoria wasn't seen in Paris until her show began at 8pm local time on Friday, Brooklyn and Nicola had been painting the city red since the middle of last week.
On Wednesday night, they enjoyed a date night, captured by the cameras, and on Thursday went to the Balenciaga show at the Tennis Club de Paris, before moving on to a party at the Grand Palais to celebrate jewellery brand Messika. Meanwhile, the Beckhams proudly watched Victoria, 52, show off her latest collection, with Harper, Romeo's girlfriend Kim Turnbull and Cruz's partner Jackie Apostel all dressed in her designs.
The Rift Behind the Family Feud
The rift began after Brooklyn snubbed all of his father's 50th birthday celebrations. Despite being in London, he and Nicola refused to join the former England captain and the rest of the family for a trip to a Bordeaux vineyard, a big do at the family's countryside home in the Cotswolds and a meal at Notting Hill restaurant, Core.
In January, Brooklyn posted a six-page message on Instagram, where he made several heartbreaking accusations about his parents, including that his mother had embarrassed him when hijacking the first dance at his wedding.
