Brooklyn Beckham Unfollows Gordon Ramsay After Family Rift Comments

Published 17 February 2026

Brooklyn Beckham has unfollowed celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay on Instagram following Ramsay's public comments on the ongoing rift between Beckham and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham. The move, confirmed on February 14, comes a day after Ramsay, a longtime family friend, weighed in during an interview with The Sun on February 13, urging the 26-year-old to reflect on his family ties amid the estrangement.

Ramsay, 59, described the situation as difficult, noting that Victoria Beckham, 51, appeared upset while emphasizing David Beckham's, 50, deep affection for his eldest son. "Victoria is upset, and I know 24/7, seven days a week, just how much David Beckham loves Brooklyn," Ramsay said. He added that his own relationship with Brooklyn remained intact, stating, "Brooklyn and I have messaged a little bit, our relationship is solid. I love him, his heart is incredible." However, Ramsay suggested that Brooklyn's infatuation with his wife, Nicola Peltz, whom he married in 2022, might be influencing the family divide. "But it's hard, isn't it, when you're infatuated? Love is blind. It's easy to get up on that rollercoaster and get carried away. But it will come back," he said.
