Brooklyn Beckham started the internet craze when he was Confirmed the rumored rift Between him and his parents earlier this year.

When confirming the feud, Brooklyn claimed that his famous parents, David and Victoria Beckham, had been controlling him his entire life in order to protect the Beckham brand.

Brooklyn’s wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, is the daughter of billionaire investor and businessman Nelson Peltz, along with Achilles PR founder Doug Eldridge, who told Fox News Digital that the Peltz family’s vast wealth “balances the variables” in this family feud, “pitting social currency against hard currency.”

“Nelson Peltz is a self-made billionaire and certainly has the resources, relationships and networks to provide a compelling counter-narrative if he so chooses. There aren’t many families who could – literally and figuratively – go toe-to-toe with the Beckhams, but the Peltz family is certainly on that short list.”

When comparing the amount of influence the two families have over the public, Eldridge said that they “in a sense” deal with “the difference between old money and new money,” with one “built on institutional discipline” trying to stay out of the media, and the other requiring “consistent media coverage.”

Since the Beckhams gained their influence through “stardom,” “it is continued popularity that will keep them there.”

“Nelson Peltz has been intentional in his media footprint, often choosing to be on the other side of the curtain, rather than center stage in the spotlight,” Eldridge said. “What the Beckhams require in terms of constant media presence, the Peltz family don’t; their empires couldn’t be more different on paper, but Their love for their children“It certainly looks identical.”

Eric Schaefer, CEO of Reputation Management Consultants, echoed Eldridge’s statement, adding that “the Beckhams win through collective affection while the Peltz world wins through quiet access.”

When it comes to controlling public perception, “generally, the first mover has the advantage,” Eldridge said, citing Winston Churchill’s famous quote: “A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth gets its pants on.”

“The important point is that the first word and the last word are not always the same thing. At a certain point, when it comes to family disputes, it doesn’t matter who is wrong and who is right; everyone gets hurt in the process,” he said.

Rumors of a rift between Brooklyn and his parents began circulating in 2022 After his marriage to NicolaBut he brought the drama to social media. While “social media provides a direct voice,” Eldridge explained, it can also “pour gasoline on a smoldering fire rather than letting it gradually burn out.”

“The Beckham brand is cultural electricity,” Schiffer said. “It’s global, it’s emotional, and it’s instantly weaponized, but Peltz’s power is a balance sheet killing machine that never needs direction. Beckham wins through mass camaraderie while Peltz’s world wins through quiet access, the kind that drives results without a personal image.”

Where it once read “DAD,” the tattoo now appears to include a starfish and two life preservers. While it’s still unclear how Brooklyn’s attempts to distance himself from his parents will help or hurt his brand, Eldridge says: It will always be Beckham“At least in name.”

“To his credit, Brooklyn has worked hard to emerge from the proverbial shadow of his huge parents,” he said. “A lot of times, we focus too much on ‘personal branding.’ If I were advising Brooklyn, I would say, ‘Keep the main thing, the main thing.’ Focus on your family (your spouse) and building your career.”

He continued, “You have the right to express your feelings and they are valid, but public disagreement with your parents and siblings does not improve your marriage — it supposedly creates tension, pressure, and instability, given the media coverage — and it does not help you lay the next row of bricks along your career path. Focus on what matters most and maintain discipline. Everything will be okay in the end; if it’s not okay, it’s not the end.”
