Brooklyn Beckham unfollows the Ramsays after Gordon issues warning to him over family feud
Gordon Ramsay's advice to celebrity pal Brooklyn Beckham over his family's fiery fall-out has seemingly fallen on deaf ears.
For those who missed it, 26-year-old Brooklyn - the eldest child of ex-England star David and Spice Girl musician Victoria Beckham - took to Instagram last month, where he confirmed long-standing rumours that his parents were in the midst of a feud with his US actress wife, Nicola Peltz.
He claimed he'd been 'silent for years' on his 'controlling' family dynamic, but felt forced to speak out, to 'tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed'.
Amongst the biggest bombshells Brooklyn subsequently dropped, were that dad David, 50, had refused to meet with him and Nicola, 31, to celebrate his 50th birthday last year, and that his mother had 'hijacked' his first dance during their 2022 nuptials, after previously pulling out of designing Nicola's wedding dress 'in the eleventh hour'.

He also claimed the 51-year-old designer had pressured him into signing away the rights to his name prior to marrying Nicola.
Weeks prior, Brooklyn was said to have sought legal advice on the matter, with a source telling The Sun he'd issued his parents with a cease and desist letter, informing the big-name British A-listers only to reach out to them through his legal representatives.
The legal notice also instructed David and Victoria not to tag either him or Nicola in any further social media posts.
What did Gordon Ramsay say about the Beckhams' bust-up?
In light of Brooklyn's bombshell exposé, Gordon last week chimed in on the bitter spat, telling The Sun it had left mum Victoria 'upset'.
"I know 24/7, seven days a week, just how much David loves Brooklyn," the 59-year-old claimed on Friday (13 Feb). "Brooklyn and I have messaged a little bit, our relationship is solid. I love him – his heart is incredible.
"But it’s hard, isn’t it, when you’re infatuated. Love is blind."
Ramsay - whose wife Tanya is one of 'Wannabe' hit-maker Victoria's closest gal pals - continued: "It’s easy to get up on that roller coaster and get carried away. But it will come back."
Of the couple, he added: "I’ve seen firsthand just how good parents they are. David as a dad is just incredible.
"They have both put so much energy into their kids, and I know just how many times they have got Brooklyn out of the sh*t."
The father-of-six went on to predict: "I think it’s going to be a matter of time before Brooklyn takes a good look at himself and understands just what his parents mean to him. He’s desperate to forge his own way, and I respect that from Brooklyn. It’s such a good thing to do.
"But remember where you came from."
Ramsay added: "And honestly, one day you’re not going to have your mum and dad, and you need to understand that. That penny will drop."
Asked if he had a direct message for his fellow A-lister, the Hell's Kitchen frontman concluded: "I just want Brooklyn to take a moment to himself. And remember: You’re half mum, half dad. And you’re an amazing young man.
"But, boy, they’ve done more for you than anyone did in your entire life."
He added: "Time’s going to be the best healer, and David will absolutely get that relationship back on track."
Brooklyn's response:
As we say, however, in the days since the restaurateur's words of wisdom hit international headlines, Brooklyn has apparently attempted to shut out the Ramsay family.
According to The Mail, the amateur photographer has taken it upon himself to unfollow Ramsay's twin children, Jack and Holly Ramsay, 24, with whom Brooklyn had been close when the trio were children.
The Sun claim he first reported the family patriarch last week, but that his 24-year-old daughter Tilly Ramsay and wife, Tana, had escaped unscathed.
The reasoning behind Brooklyn's unfollowing of the Ramsay twins hasn't yet been disclosed.
He failed to appear at Holly's Bath wedding to Olympic diver Adam Peaty back in December, however - an event attended by his parents and siblings Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20 and Harper, 14.
