The youngest child of Victoria and David Beckham has spoken out for the first time since her eldest brother's explosive statement

Harper Beckham has made her first social media appearance since her eldest brother, Brooklyn, released his explosive statement attacking their parents, Sir David and Lady Victoria, earlier this week.

The 14-year-old posted an Instagram tribute to her older brother Romeo on Friday, celebrating his catwalk appearance at Paris Fashion Week for designer Willy Chavarria.


Sharing a black and white image of the 23-year-old model strutting down the runway in the French capital, she wrote: "Yet again!! Another amazing show x @romeobeckham @willychavarria." (sic)

The post appears to signal where the youngest Beckham child's loyalties lie amid the escalating family rift.

Romeo, who is said to have blocked Brooklyn on social media, reposted his sister's tribute to his own feed, while their father, David also shared the video.

Brooklyn's statement, posted on Instagram on Monday, contained a series of damaging allegations against his parents.

The 26-year-old aspiring chef accused David and Victoria of attempting to undermine his marriage to Nicola Peltz, 31, and claimed they had been "faking their friendships" for social media.

He alleged his mother "danced very inappropriately" on him during his 2022 wedding, describing it as the most uncomfortable and humiliating moment of his life.

"My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn't stopped," Brooklyn wrote.

The statement also claimed his brothers had been "sent to attack him" on social media before blocking him last summer, and that "Brand Beckham comes first" above genuine family connections.

Victoria was reportedly left "devastated" upon reading her son's accusations, which she discovered at the same time as the general public.

A source told the Mirror: "Victoria feels betrayed because she'd done everything she can to make them both feel welcome and Nicola like another daughter. But she feels it's been thrown back in her face."

The former Spice Girl has yet to respond directly to Brooklyn's claims, though she did post "Proud" alongside footage of Romeo's catwalk appearance.

Brother Cruz also showed his support, commenting "Ohhhhhh yeahhhhhh" on Romeo's show, while Romeo's girlfriend Kim Turnbull added: "Goooooooo baby go." (sic)

Despite the fallout, sources claim David and Victoria would "take Brooklyn back in a minute" and are "horrified" by events, with insiders suggesting they believe time will eventually heal the rift.

Harper had always shared a particularly close bond with her eldest brother, but the intensifying dispute has made preserving that connection increasingly difficult.

Brooklyn is said to be finding it "difficult" to sustain his relationship with the teenager, with sources suggesting he wants to shield her from the ongoing controversy.

The situation is complicated by the fact that Harper resides with Sir David and Lady Victoria, making contact between the siblings challenging.

"He really loves and misses Harper and wishes there was some way for him to see her without him seeing his parents," a source told The Sun.

"They were really close - and Harper was close with Nicola - so for this drama to come between them is heartbreaking."

Notably, Harper was not mentioned in Brooklyn's six-page statement.
