Cruz Beckham has shared that he's 'hopeful' for reconciliation with his big brother Brooklyn, amid their ongoing family feud.
For those who need a reminder, the 27-year-old eldest son of David, 50, and Victoria Beckham, 51, sent shockwaves around the world when he took aim at his parents with a lengthy Instagram statement.
He accused his mum and dad of 'controlling narratives in the press about their family,' as well as 'trying endlessly to ruin' his relationship with his wife Nicola Peltz, including mum Victoria 'hijacking his first dance'.
The former photographer made it clear he didn't 'want to reconcile,' and the rest of his family has yet to issue any kind of public response.

Now, though, his younger brother, Cruz, 21, had a surprising response when asked by paparazzi about his brother, who had just celebrated his 27th birthday.
Musician Cruz was questioned by TMZ on Wednesday (4 March) in Paris, and was asked if he had 'any well wishes to his brother on his birthday'.
The 21-year-old simply responded with: "Happy birthday."
He then stayed silent when asked about whether he's spoken to him at all, before the journalist said, "Any chance you guys will repair the relationship? Are you hopeful for that?"
Cruz smiled as he responded: 'I hope to."
It comes just after Brooklyn's former footballer dad and fashion designer mum both publicly wished him a happy birthday on social media.
David shared a throwback snap to Instagram of the couple with Brooklyn as a toddler in a pool on holiday, and wrote: "27 today. Happy birthday, Bust. We love you x,"
He tagged Victoria in the photo and later added another black and white photo of himself alongside his son, captioned: "Happy birthday, bust [red love-heart emoji]. Love ya bud."
The former Spice Girl shared the throwback holiday picture, alongside the caption: "Happy birthday, Brooklyn, we love you so much."
Her second picture was one of herself holding Brooklyn as a baby, penning alongside it: "Happy birthday, Brooklyn. I love you so much," with a slew of red love heart emojis.
It looks like there's been no public acknowledgment of the post, but it's important to remember that there could have been a private one behind the scenes.
Brooklyn wasn't tagged in the post, which lines up with the claims that he blocked his parents and siblings.
The social media posts also follow reports that Brooklyn allegedly issued his parents a formal notice, restricting them from interacting with him on social media and insisting they contact him only through lawyers.
An anonymous source previously told The Sun: "Truly, people do not know the full facts of this heartbreaking tale, and think Brooklyn was just being truculent when he blocked his parents.
"The reality is that he issued them with a letter at the end of last summer, asking for any correspondence to go via lawyers only, and wanted to try and make amends privately, not publicly."
