It’s the day that has always brought joy to the Beckham family.

As Harper prepares to celebrate her birthday tomorrow, a shadow looms over the occasion due to uncertainties within her family. Her parents, David and Victoria Beckham, are unsure if her cherished eldest brother, Brooklyn, will reach out to wish her well as she turns 14, amidst a familial rift.

Insiders have revealed to MailOnline that Brooklyn, aged 26, and his wife Nicola, aged 30, seem to have grown distant from Harper, particularly noticeable when they didn’t visit her during their May trip to London. At that time, they were in the city to shoot a commercial for the French-Italian clothing brand Moncler, located a mere mile from the Beckhams’ residence in Holland Park.

David and Victoria remain in the dark about whether Brooklyn, who has been Harper’s idol since her childhood, will reach out to her with a message on her birthday, either privately or perhaps through a public Instagram post, as communication lines with him are currently severed.

It comes as tensions have continued to bubble in the past few weeks with a series of digs and jibes from camp Nicola and Brooklyn. 

On Wednesday aspiring chef Brooklyn shared a cooking video accompanied by a song which referred to not feeling like he has the confidence to speak up and finally feeling empowered – in a seemingly subtle but defiant message. 

And on the same day Nicola made a bizarre nod to father-in-law David Beckham as she sported a replica pair of the iconic football shorts he wore for his England debut in the 90s while out on her family’s superyacht.

When Harper Beckham celebrates her birthday there will be dark cloud hanging over it because her parents David and Victoria have no idea whether her beloved eldest brother Brooklyn will be in touch to send his best wishes

She was also keen to flaunt her close family bonds during the holiday to St Tropez as she shared gushing Instagram posts about her brothers on Monday.

Nicola continued to publicly praise and share admiration for her billionaire family on social media amid her husband’s family feud. 

The actress took to Instagram to share a series of photographs in which she gushed over her billionaire father Nelson Peltz and joked that her Labubu dolls were her family. 

That came after she and Brooklyn shared photographs of themselves on social media attending Nelson’s family birthday celebrations – painfully echoing the very similar celebrations they chose to snub for David’s own recent birthday.

And amid the escalating feud last week Romeo stepped in as he shared a very pointed statement about ‘appreciating people that love you’ and insisted ‘life was too short’ to not tell people you care about them.  

While Nicola revels in her happy life with her family, Brooklyn risks ruining his ‘close bond’ with sister Harper by overshadowing her birthday.

Should Brooklyn not message, friends of the Beckhams predict that it will be a ‘huge moment’ in the feud, which escalated when the couple didn’t attend any of David’s 50th celebrations which took place between the end of March and the beginning of May.

One source said: ‘Brooklyn and Harper used to be inseparable. He adored her, he hopefully still does, but the problem is that Brooklyn has a track record for ignoring family birthdays now.

‘It would be devastating for Harper not to hear from him. She hasn’t done anything and she’s only 13-years-old, she is the innocent party here. 

‘Harper’s birthday has always been such a happy day, she’s the adored little daughter so it’s always so joyous but this is a tough situation.

Sources close to the family have told MailOnline of their fears that Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola, 30, have also ditched Harper

‘Brooklyn was 12 when Harper was born, he was so important in her life and it must be terribly sad that she isn’t seeing him since the fall out with David and Victoria happened.

‘David and Victoria very much blame Nicola for all of this but hopefully Brooklyn will see sense.

‘While Harper doesn’t have her own Instagram yet, the family thing is to tag her in on their posts as #harperseven.’

At the start of her relationship with Brooklyn, Nicola seemed to forge a strong bond with Harper. The actress soon positioned herself as a ‘big sister’ figure to the little girl, who is aid to have ‘adored’ her.

But now the couple, who married in April 2022 at her family’s £76million Florida mansion, no longer speak to Sir David and Lady Beckham, with the couple believing that she controls Brooklyn.

Posh and Becks were furious when the couple didn’t contact Harper when they visited London just weeks after David’s birthday. 

At the time they were also cross that they didn’t get in touch with Cruz, 19, either because at that point he and Brooklyn had never had a crossed word. 

Since then the singer has very much come out on his parents’ side amid the rift.

Despite ignoring his father’s birthday and his mum Victoria’s two weeks before in April, Brooklyn did take to Instagram to wish the footballer’s mum Sandra a happy birthday two weeks ago. 

However, Victoria was devastated when he didn’t do the same for her father Tony back in May.

Last week, Nicola addressed speculation that she was ‘controlling’ Brooklyn after posting snaps with her family and Brooklyn celebrating her father Nelson’s 83rd birthday on the European getaway.

The celebratory photos were the latest blow for David and Victoria, after Brooklyn snubbed his own dad’s 50th birthday – with many flooding the comment section to accuse Nicola of being to blame.

Yet she hit back by ‘liking’ a fan’s comment that suggested Brooklyn had made his own decision. 

The comment read: ‘The fact people are in this comment section talking bs about someone controlling a GROWN man is absurd. The guy is an adult and can make his own decisions, leave them be and stop blaming women for everything.’

Amid his escalating feud with his family, the pair failed to publicly acknowledge David’s milestone 50th birthday on May 8. 

David and Victoria’s 26th wedding anniversary also passed without mention, despite the former Manchester United and England footballer referencing Brooklyn in his own post.

David previously thanked wife Victoria for their ‘beautiful children’ as the couple both acknowledged estranged son Brooklyn while celebrating their anniversary on July 4.

The former footballer who also shares sons Romeo, 20, and Cruz, 22 with the ex Spice Girl shared a series of throwback snaps of the family in happier times.

Declaring his love for Victoria, who he referred to as Lady Beckham following his Knighthood, he wrote: ’26 years today you said YES to me Happy Anniversary and thank you for giving me our beautiful children and building the life that we have together.’ 

He went on to tag his children including estranged son Brooklyn.

Victoria, 51, also tagged her eldest son, captioning her post: ‘Another year, another chapter in our love story. 

‘I’m so proud of the beautiful family and life we’ve built together. You and our four incredible children complete me. I love you so much @davidbeckham. Here’s to 26 years!!’ 

Despite the apparent olive branch, insiders believe Brooklyn will not be in attendance when Harper turns 14.

Rumours of a rift between the eldest son and his parents began when Brooklyn was noticeably silent on his former Spice Girl mother’s birthday, a far cry from his usual sweet posts about her.

Neither the former photographer nor his wife wished Victoria a happy 51st, while David, Romeo and Cruz posted gushing messages.

And as well as snubbing dad David’s birthday online, he also was notably absent from all of his 50th birthday celebrations – including a boys’ fishing trip.

Despite flying to London at the time, Brooklyn and Nicola also didn’t attend the big family party at the Beckhams’ Cotswolds home or an idyllic trip to France or a meal at Notting Hill restaurant, Core.  

Brooklyn reportedly ‘told his famous family that he wants no contact’ with them last month in the latest devastating turn of their ongoing feud. 

According to reports, the eldest Beckham boy has had no communication with his family following father David’s knighthood being announced last month and only learned of the news in the media alongside the rest of the world.

Denying he’d asked for no contact, a source close to Brooklyn told the publication: ‘Everyone’s focus should be David Beckham’s great honour’.

Meanwhile a source close to Brooklyn also denied the claims as they told MailOnline, ‘this seems to be another deliberate attempt to misrepresent the truth, and it only serves to distract from this honor being bestowed on Brooklyn’s father.’
