The Beckhams put on a visibly united front in Paris on Friday, piling into a waiting car through sheets of rain ahead of Victoria Beckham’s Paris Fashion Week show — with one notable absence. David Beckham, 50, shielded 14-year-old Harper with an umbrella, escorting her from the hotel lobby as fans gathered outside. Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 20, were also spotted, with Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie Apostol joining the family entourage.
Brooklyn, 26, was missing once more. His absence follows months of speculation about a rift after he and wife Nicola renewed their vows in August without inviting the Beckham clan, and after a leaked speech in which he reportedly spoke movingly about his love for the Peltz family. He also failed to publicly wish Romeo a happy birthday last month or attend the London celebrations.
Inside the fashion swirl, Victoria, 51, made a quick-change dash in a grey VB suit before unveiling a Spring/Summer 2026 collection inspired by her “hippie era.” Family friend Eva Longoria, dazzling in black satin, was also seen heading to the venue with husband José Bastón.
Cruz embraced his own mischievous runway energy in £370 JW Anderson green frog clogs and a white tee stamped “24.10.2025,” teasing Victoria’s upcoming Elle USA cover date. Days earlier he hinted at a 14 October launch for his music project, posting invites that read, “Cruz D Beckham officially invites you, one night only.” When a TikTok user jabbed that he might “become a race car driver next,” Cruz shot back: “Wrong brother mate.”
David kept it classic in navy with a grey flat cap and an £8,000 Hermès backpack, taking time to sign a vintage Manchester United shirt outside the hotel. Speaking at a London audio launch this week, he nodded to the strain of distance, saying, “I’m very close to my family… now with the travel that I do… of course I miss them — I miss my dogs as well. But they’re part of the family.”
Brooklyn, meanwhile, has continued to shrug off the noise around his changing career paths. “There’s always going to be people saying negative things but I have a very supportive wife,” he said in a recent interview. “Me and her, we just do our thing… I never worry about what people say.”
The family tableau in Paris — David playing protective dad, Victoria in pre-show mode, siblings turning the pavement into a catwalk — sent a clear message. Whether or not the eldest rejoins the front row, Brand Beckham marches on.
