Posh's youngest son is following in her musical footsteps

Lady Victoria Beckham has publicly thrown her support behind her youngest son Cruz Beckham, just days after his eldest brother Brooklyn made an explosive public statement about the family.

The fashion designer, 51, praised Cruz after the musician, 20, announced the first dates of his debut headline tour, marking a major milestone in his emerging music career.


Cruz shared the news with fans on social media, writing: “I’m so excited to announce the first mini tour.

“It’ll be my dream to play you the music I’ve been working on. See you there?

“Let’s av a good time shall we.”

The guitarist has been steadily establishing himself as an indie-rock, guitar-led artist since officially launching his professional music career in late 2025.

His latest announcement follows years of musical training in guitar, piano, drums and mandolin, with Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham long understood to have supported his creative development.

Cruz has also benefited from high-profile industry mentorship, with The Kooks frontman Luke Pritchard acting as a key collaborator and songwriting mentor.

He has additionally worked with leading producers and writers including Fred Ball, Joe Rubel and Ed Drewett.

In October 2025, Cruz released his first professional singles, Optic and Lick the Toad, debuting the tracks at a launch party attended by all members of his immediate family, with the notable exception of his eldest brother Brooklyn and Brooklyn’s wife Nicola Peltz Beckham.

Following 15 unannounced “secret gigs” across the UK later that year, Cruz has now confirmed his first official headline tour.

The For Your Love tour is scheduled to run from February to March 2026, with dates across Birmingham, Cardiff, Glasgow and Manchester, followed by a show in Paris.

Cruz will perform alongside his band, The Breakers, throughout the tour.

Posh was quick to show her pride, commenting beneath her son’s announcement: “We r all so proud of u Cruz.” (sic)

Fans responded enthusiastically beneath her message, with one writing: “And we’re proud of you bab x I love you VB." Another added: “England and all its girl power are behind you.”

A third fan wrote: “And we are PROUD OF YOU ITUNES QUEEN X” (sic), referencing Victoria’s recent achievement of her first-ever solo number one on the UK and Ireland iTunes chart with Not Such An Innocent Girl.

“You are the best Mum,” another supporter commented.

However, the supportive messages came amid renewed scrutiny of tensions within the Beckham family.

On Tuesday, Sir David addressed the topic of children making “mistakes” on social media during an interview at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

His remarks followed a highly publicised Instagram statement from his eldest son Brooklyn Beckham, who earlier this month accused his parents of controlling media narratives and claimed he had no desire to reconcile with the family.

One fan appeared to link Sir David’s comments to the situation, writing beneath Lady Victoria’s post: “It’s because you’re supportive and loving parents, keep doing what you’re doing. Everyone knows what a great job you’ve done with your kids. As David says, some kids make mistakes.”

Not all reactions were supportive.

One critic wrote: “Proud of Brooklyn, right? You’re bad, let’s believe Brooklyn." Another added: “If she was supportive then she would be supportive of Brooklyn’s marriage.”

On January 19, 2026, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham released a six-page statement on Instagram Stories, confirming a deep rift with his parents Sir David and Lady Victoria.

In the message, he accused them of prioritising “Brand Beckham” and public image over family relationships, and stated he had “no desire to reconcile.”

The statement followed years of a perceived family feud, during which Brooklyn relocated to Florida to live with his wife and her family, while largely distancing himself from high-profile Beckham family events.

Fans and media observerd Brooklyn "snubbing" key events in the Beckham calendar, drawing renewed attention to the ongoing rift.

These moments included Sir David's 50th birthday celebrations in May, his knighthood ceremony in November, Lady Victoria's 51st birthday in April, Christmas 2025, which Brooklyn spent with the Peltz family, as well as several milestones for his younger brothers, most notably Cruz’s first live music performances and Romeo Beckham’s 23rd birthday.
