BROOKLYN Beckham has broken his silence on sister Harper’s birthday as he makes moves to ‘end’ the family feud.
As Harper turned 14 today, her big brother Brooklyn took to social media to share a photo wishing her a happy birthday.
He could be seen standing with wife Nicola Peltz in the throwback, with sister Harper in the middle.
Brooklyn wrote: “Happy birthday Harper, we love u x.”

IT was the sweetest show of sibling love – a carousel of five intimate, unseen photos of Brooklyn Peltz-Beckham and his wife Nicola with his beloved baby sister Harper Beckham.
“We love you so much,” reads the caption, “The best little sister in the whole world.”
Fast forward 12 months on from Harper’s 13th birthday and sources tell us Brooklyn could today end his long-running feud with his family – by reaching out to his little sister Harper as she turns 14.
The aspiring chef has had no contact with his famous parents David and Victoria for months after a row over money tore a wedge between them.
Those close to Brooklyn, 26, said they believed he would reach out to Harper because of their close bond.
If he posts publicly, it will be the first time Brooklyn has referenced his family in months – with him accused of snubbing Victoria and David on social media on significant days, including Mother’s Day and David’s 50th.
“Brooklyn and Harper were always incredibly close,” a source tells us.
“He adores her and so does his wife Nicola. They had an incredibly close bond and despite everything that has gone on, Brooklyn idolises her.
“Brooklyn could end this nonsense by reaching out to Harper, both privately and publicly, and many believe he will do this today.
“Harper means the world to Brooklyn. Although things have been strained between him and his parents, there is no way he’d want it to affect Harper.
“He is her big brother and nothing will ever change that.”
The Sun revealed how Brooklyn and Nicola, 30, had returned to London to film a huge Moncler advert campaign in London in May.
He was just minutes away from the Beckhams’ home in Holland Park but failed to reach out.
Those close to Brooklyn said at the time the shoot had a quick turnaround and that their schedules had not lined up.
But many believe Brooklyn’s decision to not see his family was another slight – after he missed all three of David’s 50th birthday celebrations in Miami, London and France.
Last month, insiders told The Sun about the real reason behind Brooklyn’s rift with his parents, explaining it was sparked by a row over money.
Brooklyn and Nicola, who wed in April 2022, have bought a palatial new home in the states which cost them just over £10.5million.
Those close to Brooklyn and Nicola claimed that David and Victoria were “tight” and hadn’t helped out with financing the move.
But those close to the Beckhams claimed this was “nonsense,” adding: “David and Victoria will always support Brooklyn if and when he needs it.
“When he was setting up on his own, they would regularly help him out — as parents do — but they won’t spoil him. They still help all their grown-up kids.”
Earlier this year The Sun told how David and Victoria were “anguished” by how far the feud had gone.
A social media post by Brooklyn, which those close to the Beckhams said felt “pointed”, saw Brooklyn saying to Nicola: “I always choose you baby.”
Insiders close to the former Spice Girl and ex England captain said they were “devastated” by the lack of contact and said they believed Nicola was “controlling” Brooklyn.
A source added: “It shows how much this situation with his family has escalated.
“It’s very sad for everyone involved, especially David and Victoria who love him very much. This isn’t the Brooklyn his family knows and loves.
“This post was like a dagger to their hearts but they will always be there for Brooklyn.”
Those close to Brooklyn however insisted there was nothing sinister about the post, telling The Sun: “They are unbelievably smitten, and for him, social media is another way of showing his love.
“Brooklyn would be happy to meet his parents behind closed doors and hopes for a reconciliation.”
Now it is hoped that Harper’s birthday could prove to be the antidote to the ongoing feud.
“If Brooklyn doesn’t reach out it would be astonishing,” our insider added.
“But everyone who knows him knows how much he loves his sister.
“No matter what is going on with the rest of his family, he is devoted to Harper.
“To not message her would be awful but Brooklyn’s friends are convinced he will reach out.”

When worn together, it looks like a stunning dress that is perfect for a wedding.
DUNNES Stores opened its first store on Patrick Street in Cork in 1944 - and it was an instant hit.
Shoppers from all over the city rushed to the store to snap up quality clothing at pre-war prices in Ireland’s first ‘shopping frenzy’.
During the excitement, a window was forced in and the police had to be called to help control the crowds hoping to bag founder Ben Dunne’s ‘Better Value’ bargains.
Dunnes later opened more stores in the 1950s and began to sell groceries in 1960 – starting with apples and oranges.
The retailer said: “Fruit was expensive at the time and Ben Dunne yet again offered Better Value than anyone else in town.
“Over time, our food selection has grown and that spirit of good value has remained strong.
“Now we offer a wide range of carefully-sourced foods from both local Irish suppliers and overseas.”
The retailer’s first Dublin store opened its doors in 1957 on Henry Street and a super store on South Great Georges Street was unveiled in 1960.
They added: “In 1971, our first Northern Irish store opened, and many others soon followed.
“Expansion continued in the 1980s in Spain, and later into Scotland and England.”
Dunnes now has 142 stores and employs 15,000 people.
THE world’s most beautiful airports have been announced and the list features just one one in Europe.
Located in France, Marseille Provence Airport is 16 miles northwest of the city and is a hub airport for many prominent airlines including Ryanair and Air France.
And now the airport has been named as one of the most beautiful in the world by Prix Versailles – a collection of international awards given for architecture.
Designed by the famous architect – who was also behind London’s Gherkin – Foster + Partners – Marseille Airport, the new ‘heart’ of the airport connects Terminal 1 with a 22,000sqm extension and is lined with windows.
The impressive hall is 22m tall and was made using 70 per cent recycled steel.
Skylights allow sunlight into the hall too.
The design was created to be in keeping with the original 1960s terminal and further development in the 1990s.
When travellers get to the airport, they will go through security which is located under a canopy.
Shops and restaurants also feature lots of wood to reference the boat houses of the Old Port of Marseille.
This part of the airport opened in July last year, and today the airport handles over nine million passengers each year to approximately 100 destinations.
Other airports that feature on the list include an airport on an island in the Indian Ocean.
The arrivals terminal at Roland Garros Airport on Réunion Island in France is the first in the world to work with the tropical climate of the area – not against it.
Essentially, a giant chimney-like structure draws hot air up and out of the airport and allows natural breezes to cool the building.
The terminal also features lots of plants that are native to the island.
Elsewhere, Yantai Penglai International Airport in China, Kansai International Airport in Japan, Portland International Airport in the USA and San Francisco International Airport in the USA, were also named amongst the most beautiful.
Three of the five airports listed as the most beautiful in the world will also receive a World Title – Prix Versailles, Interior or Exterior – which will be awarded in December.
An ‘airport of the future’ design has also recently been revealed – with no queues, no connections and no more long waits for luggage.
Plans involve the main idea that passengers would no longer need to walk to their gate.
Instead, plane cabins will come to the passengers to pick up them up and take them directly to the plane.
The vision created by Jovari Jetspeed promises to cut “millions of hours and billions of wasted dollars” from air travel.
Plus, a first look at an incredible new £3billion airport upgrade in a tiny country has been revealed.
AFC BOURNEMOUTH have announced plans to expand their Vitality Stadium to almost double its current capacity.
The renovations will require the demolition of the current South Stand, as well as the expansion of the existing North and East stands.
The changes aim to take their approximately 11,300 seater stadium to a new capacity of around 20,500, according to a plan submitted to the Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole council.
Bournemouth secured the ownership of their stadium from property company Structadene in April, opening the door to expansion plans.
The Cherries had previously sold the ground to the company to escape financial issues 20 years ago.
The Vitality’s 11,300 capacity is the smallest among teams set to compete in this upcoming Premier League campaign.
The new expansion would make it only the second smallest, leapfrogging Brentford’s G-tech Community Stadium with 17,000.
They would also be nipping at the heels of third smallest capacity Burnley’s Turf Moor stadium, with 22,000.
A Bournemouth club statement said: “The expansion and improvement of the stadium represents a major milestone in the club’s history and its stated journey to be a top performing club in the Premier League. “
Other modernisation efforts will include a new club shop, fan zone and relocated turnstiles to improve matchday experiences.

A public exhibition is set to take place at the stadium regarding the expansion on July 21 .
Fans and locals are invited to attend a presentation from club personnel and advisors, as well as to pose their questions and concerns.
The clubs statement continued: “Feedback from local residents and the public will help shape the proposals and inform how the Club can continue to support the communities that are an important part of the AFC Bournemouth success story.”
Bournemouth will be buoyed by a strong 24/25 season that saw them finish in the top half of the Premier League for the first time since the 16/17 campaign.
The Cherries have also received a significant cash injection of around £100million so far from the summer sales of Dean Huijsen, Milos Kerkez and Jaidon Anthony.
Manager Andoni Iraola will hope to build on this new financial support – and the improved home support after the expansion – to make a push for European football over the coming years.
LOVE Island fans have branded Meg a “red flag” after noticing a concerning trait.
Throughout the series, questions have been raised about her man Dejon’s motivations after a number of flirty exchanges with bombshells when Meg isn’t around.
Viewers have noticed she has a habit of taking the girls to task, rather than having it out with Dejon, 26.
Last night’s recoupling saw her snap at Andrada when the Casa Amor girl said she’d enjoyed one on one chats with Dejon in the other villa.
One viewer wrote on X: “Why is Megs first response to always fume at the girls but not with her man???”
Another said: “Meg please you have done exactly the same, and never shame the guy you’re with for doing that but only the women.”
A third posted: “Meg ask YOUR MAN questions not the girls.”
Another previously said: “Meg is rotten to other women, such a red flag.”
During Casa Amor, Dejon grew close to Andrada, 27, and admitted there was a “big spark” between them.
However, it was Ben who decided to recouple with the nail technician.
Meg was delighted that Dejon’s head wasn’t turned and he had been loyal to her.
But viewers have claimed the real reason Dejon returned alone was because Ben had first pick, leaving Dejon no choice but to stick.
Other fans said Dejon wants the best of both worlds – as he was able to return alone and appear loyal, but he can also continue to get to know Andrada after she made it into the main villa.
“Ben brought back Dejon’s mistress… Meg is not going to rest,” said one.
Stating her own intentions at the recoupling, Meg said to host Maya Jama: “As much as he says I’m his Meg, I hope he’s my D.”
Meg looked nervous as Dejon emerged alone, and it soon kicked off when his Casa connection was unveiled.
Andrada said she enjoyed getting to know the boys.
Maya then cheekily asked who, to which she said Dejon, leaving Meg fuming.
“I f**king knew it,” Meg exclaimed, looking angry.
Andrada then explained she and Dejon had been getting to know one another “a little bit”.
Meg was seething by the revelation and snapped, asking Andrada: “What does a little bit mean?”
Andrada said it was nothing disrespectful, “just one on one chats”.
Dejon flirted up a storm with Andrada during his time in Casa.
He told Andrada that she was his “favourite bombshell”.
He also alluded to how he wants to take her back to the main villa so they can continue to get to know one another.
A FED UP Katie Taylor dismissed Amanda Serrano’s persistent complaints over alleged headbutting as “a lot of whining”.
The rivals will tee off on each other for a third time in the early hours of Saturday morning from New York’s iconic boxing venue Madison Square Garden.
Despite generally being two classy operators outside of the ring, there’ll be no shortage of fuel for them to call upon as Serrano feels judges have favoured Taylor while The Bray Bomber has grown weary of such accusations.
Speaking to RTE at their final pre-fight press conference, the newly 39-year-old insisted she wasn’t frustrated at team Serrano’s consistent narrative about her supposed headbutting habit.
Yet her initial words belied a desire that’s clearly there to shut Serrano and her coaches up for good with a decisive victory.
Taylor stated: “I’m not really annoyed about it but I’m allowed to speak my mind.
“There’s been a lot of complaining and a lot of whining from the other team about the decisions about the headbutts, about whatever, I think enough is enough.
“I have no problem speaking my mind when I need to; a lot of the time I choose to stay silent, but there’s a time to stay silent and a time to speak up and this is my time is to speak up.”
As regards the 10-round contest that’s set to unfold as the main event of an historic all-female card, Taylor reiterated her pride at leading the way on such a noteworthy night for women’s boxing.
She emphasized: “It’s been great, I’m very excited about Friday night, I can’t wait to step in there.
“I’m involved obviously in another historic night, I can’t believe, looking back on my journey as a professional boxer and an amateur boxer, the positions I’ve been in and to have these big nights.
“This is something I’ve dreamt of as a kid and I get a chance again to perform on the biggest stage possible in Madison Square Garden – unbelievable.”
Taylor leads the series 2-0 after judges unanimously found in her favour against the Puerto Rican at AT&T Stadium last November.
The Wicklow native also won via a split decision when the pair first fought at MSG in April 2022.
Two weeks ago she conveyed her belief that her last outing was one of her greatest ever performances.
The 2012 Olympic gold medallist — who fought her first fight as an amateur in 2001 — said: “It was definitely one of my best performances.
“I love the way I was able to push her back and outfight her. I think I outboxed her in the first fight. I actually outfought her in the second.”
That view was at odds with the Netflix commentary team of Mauro Ranallo, ring legend Roy Jones Jr and actress Rosie Perez. Ranallo and Perez claimed the judges had got it wrong. Jones Jr sided with the winner.
Throughout the broadcast — viewed by 75 million fight fans worldwide — Ranallo and Perez had controversially suggested it was a one-sided contest in favour of Serrano.
Taylor, however, has long since shrugged off the pundits’ objections.
She added: “I recently looked back at that fight and if you turn the commentary off, it’s actually a very, very clear win for me.
“There was no controversy whatsoever. The commentary made it controversial but I was very happy with that performance.
“But there’s still more I can do as well, which is very positive for me. It was a great performance but I feel like I still haven’t shown my best. That’s very, very exciting for me.”
NEMANJA VIDIC has revealed the four harsh words he would tell Gary Neville every morning at Manchester United.
The legendary ex-Man Utd defender pulled no punches in the dressing room with his long-time team-mate ahead of morning training.
Vidić was speaking on The Overlap, brought to you by Sky Bet, when he spoke on his frustrations with Neville’s annoying training ground habit.
Vidic had recently made the move to England from Russian outfit Spartak Moscow in 2006, and was struggling to adapt to Man Utd’s morning training.
This discomfort was only made worse by Neville’s incessant talking, which drove Vidic to snap back every day.
He said: “I did not realise why he was talking all the time when I come in in the morning.
“He comes in the dressing room and he is like – talking, talking, talking.
“I was like – ‘Please Gaz, shut up!'”
Neville took the story in good spirits, cracking up before confirming: “It’s true, every day!”
The training ground tension didn’t slow the pair down on the pitch.
The duo made up half of the back line for one of English footballs greatest dynasties under Sir Alex Ferguson.

United won four Premier League titles during the duo’s time at the club, including three in a row between the 06/07 and 08/09 seasons.
The Serb would go on to make 300 appearances for the Red Devils, cementing himself as one of the Premier League’s best ever centre backs.
