Brooklyn Beckham’s ex claims family caused ‘anxiety’ during relationship

Brooklyn Beckham's ex-girlfriend Hana Cross has opened up about their relationship, including her time with his family.

In a candid new interview in this week's HELLO! Magazine, the 28-year-old British model admitted that her time with the Beckhams caused her a lot of 'anxiety' and there 'were a lot of warning signs'.

It comes after the 26-year-old eldest Beckham son issued a public statement towards his parents, revealing they're feuding and insisting he 'doesn't want to reconcile'.

He accused David, 50, and Victoria, 51, of 'trying to ruin' his relationship with wife Nicola Peltz, and valuing 'public promotion and endorsements above all else'.

Hana and Brooklyn dated for around nine months between 2018 and 2019, and during that time, she got to spend time with his celebrity family.

As reported by the London Evening Standard, the model attended Victoria's prestigious fashion shows and spent time at the family’s Cotswolds home.

In the new interview, Hana revealed: "My time with the family caused me a lot of anxiety, in all honesty. There were a lot of warning signs and things that happened during the relationship that, in hindsight, should have made me think and maybe end the relationship or walk away from it a lot sooner than I did."

She added: "But I was only 20, 21 when we dated, and I had just started modelling, and I came from living on a farm to moving to London and being thrown into a relationship like that.

"It’s hard to know what’s best to do in that situation. No one really knew, and I didn't, really. It wasn't something that I was super-open about, so advice from outside was hard to take."

The model admitted that it's 'hard' because she doesn't 'look back on that as a fond time, on reflection'.

She did make sure to clarify, though, that she's never been 'pressured' or received a warning from the Beckhams telling her not to speak out about their relationship.

Hana added, "This whole thing that's happened, with Brooklyn coming out and writing the Instagram Stories and his statement - it was a bit shocking to me that he did that. It was a surprise.

"I guess it shocked his family, too… but it summed up a lot of my own experiences as well and the way that their family as a brand does act.

"But then, nobody knows what's going on behind closed doors. But I do think it's sad that everything had to be put out there on his side, so openly and publicly."

As for reconciling, Hana made it clear she hopes that they do, 'purely because they're a family and I think family is extremely important'.
