Brooklyn Beckham sparks debate with lavish holiday

The son of an A-list couple has been seen living his best life and some people are up in arms about it.

Brooklyn Beckham, the son of David and Victoria Beckham, has sparked a debate on social media with his latest holiday antics in St Tropez.

The 26-year-old is the eldest son of the former Spice Girl and ex-footballer and is famously married to billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz-Beckham.

As one does when marrying into a billionaire dynasty, he has reportedly been spending time in Europe on Project X, an $85 million superyacht that famously costs $1.2 million per week to charter.

The 260ft luxury vessel boasts a glass-sided swimming pool, a wellness suite, a spa and 360-degree sundeck, multiple double rooms and cabins, and requires a crew of 28 to run the boat.

Photos of Brooklyn sauntering around on deck, shirtless with his tattoos on display, as well as other pics of him on a jetski, clearly working on a promo for his hot sauce brand have ignited the internet.

The celebrity couple have also been posting up a storm on social media.

But the lavish display hasn’t gone down well with everyone – in fact many are offended by it.

The eldest Beckham offspring couldn’t just post his holiday photos in peace. While some people called him and his wife “stunning”, others were arguing over if he deserved such a fancy retreat.

One claimed the photos came across as “spoiled”, another said Brooklyn’s holiday was simply a sign of “too much money”, and lots of people touched on Brooklyn’s ever-changing career path.

“They seem bored like they have absolutely nothing to do,” one claimed.

“This is what happens when people don’t have jobs,” another chimed in.

“Brooklyn do you have a job?” another asked.

“The caption being ‘forever summer’ …..Like yeah babe, you’re both unemployed,” someone else joked.

“I would suggest you both take a year out, do charity work in a remote place, and find your grounding,” another remarked.

Brooklyn who has over 16 million followers on social media describes himself as an “entrepreneur” which is deeply true, the man is not afraid to take a career risk.

Over the years, he has gained notoriety for his attempts to forge his own path to varying degrees of success.

When he was 18, he released a photography book featuring a blurry photo of an elephant and a caption explaining that the photo wasn’t very good because elephants are “so hard to photograph”.

Three years later, he decided to ditch photography and he became a chef.

He didn’t do anything drastic like go to TAFE or work in a kitchen; instead, he appeared on a morning breakfast show in the UK, called himself a “foodie,” and then gave a lengthy tutorial on making bacon, egg, and sausage sandwiches.

In 2022, Brooklyn decided to give the role of bartender a crack and described himself as a “nutter in the kitchen” and then made a standard gin and tonic, leaving the internet cackling at his expense.

He has kept at the whole cooking thing and went viral in 2023 because he posted a video on his Instagram showing him using a blowtorch to make a grilled cheese sandwich, which fans thought was slightly overkill.

In 2024, he went viral when Nicola revealed that she fired Brooklyn for his cameo role in her directorial debut, Lola.

“He had one line, ‘Hi,’ but he kept saying it in a British accent, and he was staring directly into the camera. I was like, ‘oh God, we have to move on, good Lord’,” she said.

Brooklyn has now pivoted to small business owner and has launched his own hot sauce line called Cloud23.
