Cruz and Romeo Beckham have rallied around their younger sister Harper after Brooklyn reportedly claimed the family had “staged” her visit to his home.
On Friday, 14-year-old Harper was seen arriving alone at the Beverly Hills house before leaving again just minutes later, appearing downcast in photographs taken outside the property.
Following the brief visit to the home Brooklyn shares with wife Nicola Peltz, 31, sources close to the couple alleged that the Beckhams were “using Harper as a pawn.”
Those close to David and Victoria Beckham have strongly rejected what they described as a “cruel accusation aimed at an innocent teenage girl” from their estranged 27-year-old son.
Romeo, 23, then made his support for Harper clear, calling her his “favourite person ever” as he posted a warm sibling selfie to Instagram.
In the picture, Romeo smiled in a Brazil jacket from his fashion label Intra while leaning in beside Harper, who pulled a cheeky expression for the camera.
Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie, 30, also revealed they had spent quality time with his younger sister during their trip stateside after the snub.

The group headed out for a seafood dinner at The Crab Cooker in Newport Beach, before grabbing ice cream cones for dessert.
They also hung out another day on the trip, as they picked up Erewhon smoothies in one sweet selfie of Jackie and Harper together.
She had captioned the selection of snaps: ‘LA – OC!! Core memory weekend. We obviously went looking for Summer and Seth.’
The family spat emerged after Harper was photographed arriving at his £14million Los Angeles home on Friday afternoon, reportedly carrying a handwritten letter for her older brother.
However, representatives for Brooklyn and Nicola insisted the circumstances surrounding the visit raised serious questions.
They told the Daily Mail: ‘[The fact] that photographers were in place as the letter was hand delivered says it all – this was choreographed for the cameras.’
In response friends close to Victoria and David have said: ‘It is incredibly sad that this horrible accusation is being levelled at an innocent young girl who just desperately misses her brother.
‘Nothing needed to be said at all so to invent this nasty accusation is really unnecessary.’
They have also claimed that Brooklyn hasn’t accepted any contact from Harper or his grandparents since the falling out.
Following Harper’s visit it later emerged that Brooklyn, 27, was not even in California at the time.
Instead the aspiring chef and media personality shared an Instagram story showing himself out for a run in New York City, making it clear that he was on the opposite side of the country when his younger sister arrived at his front door.

David’s new plaque has taken pride of place at the centre of Hollywood Boulevard, just over five miles from Brooklyn’s home.
The former England captain appeared determined to avoid discussing the family fallout during interviews ahead of the ceremony.
Asked what toll months of headlines surrounding the feud had taken on him, he replied: ‘To be honest, I’m sorry to stop you there, but that’s a private matter. That’s the one thing that I don’t want to talk about.’
The Beckhams have been embroiled in an increasingly acrimonious dispute with Brooklyn and Nicola for months, with relations said to have deteriorated dramatically after the couple failed to attend David’s 50th birthday celebrations in May 2025.
In January, Brooklyn released a scathing six-page statement denouncing his parents.
He announced he had cut ties with his family – declaring he was no longer part of ‘Brand Beckham’ and insisting his parents and their other children are ‘performative’.
Shortly before Christmas last year, Brooklyn blocked his parents on Instagram, while Brooklyn and Nicola’s lawyers later wrote to the Beckhams’ legal team requesting that all communication be conducted through legal representatives.
Brooklyn also claimed David and Victoria had controlled him for much of his life, attempted to drive a wedge between him and Nicola and left him embarrassed when his mother danced ‘inappropriately’ with him during the first dance at his wedding.

Victoria has previously spoken about the challenges of parenting older children while under intense scrutiny.
Speaking about all four of her children, she said: ‘Being a parent of young adult children and adult children, gosh, I mean, it’s very different from having little children.
‘I think that we’re trying to do the best we can,’ she said, adding that the negative press in recent months had not affected her fashion and beauty empire.
‘I think that ultimately people are buying my product because the product is really good. I don’t think they’re buying my eyeliner just because it’s me.’
