Victoria and David Beckham continued their sun-soaked European holiday this weekend, relaxing together on their luxury yacht near Capri, Italy.
Fashion designer Victoria, 52, showed off her physique in a black bikini with sheer sections, pairing the look with a matching black sarong and a large sunhat to shield her face from the sun as she topped up her tan on deck.
David went shirtless in pale yellow swimming shorts, showing off his physique aboard the couple's £16million yacht, named Seven.
The couple chatted together in the Mediterranean sunshine during their Italian getaway, after their children Cruz, 21, and Romeo, 23, had flown back to the UK for various commitments.
Their eldest son Brooklyn continues to be absent from the family's European travels this summer.
Cruz Beckham's Debut EP
Cruz appeared to take a swipe at his estranged brother on his debut record release. The singer's six-song EP, Wear & Tear, recorded with his band The Breakers, was released alongside accompanying music videos on the same day.
Cruz said the project captures "a life lived", including the "learning curves" along the way. One track, Wannabe, is a tribute to his mother, named after the Spice Girls' debut single. Other songs appear to reference the fallout with Brooklyn.
"We've been high, and low, in love and in pain, jealous, upset - we've lived and learned. We've all got our wear and tear," Cruz said.
In the single Seeing Red, Cruz sings: "Been seeing red for as long as I remember / Yeah, I said I'm already there / The moment I drop this s***, the whole thing's over."
Cruz said the lyrics were meant to be tongue-in-cheek. "Seeing red is a comedic take on a totally unserious moment of frustration, in this case in sports," he said. "Everyone's competitive nature likes to take over now and then, but it's all fun and games. Seeing red is a nod to that exact turning point."
The accompanying music video appears to reference David's football career, showing Cruz and his bandmates playing before the game turns into a fight, with Cruz shown bloodied and bruised.
Lyrics Referencing Brooklyn
Cruz also appears to reference the family rift in the track Loneliest Boy, which includes lyrics about "breaking mama's heart", leading fans to believe the song was inspired by Brooklyn's estrangement.
Cruz sings: "Loneliest boy, place all your bets on him, To find something bad in somebody good, he always does, loneliest boy, I hope that you're listening, don't push all your friends away, when we're tryna show you love."
The chorus continues: "So tell me you're scared, and that you need someone to hold. Cause you're in the room but really, does it even show? But, why can't they see that you're a million miles away, They'll never know, when you look so close."
A further verse reads: "Loneliest boy, mama don't talk too much, It's breaking hеr heart. It shows in the small things that you don't do, I guess in thе end that it's you, yourself, and you. Tell me how do you live, when you've got nobody to lose?"
Brooklyn's Estrangement
Brooklyn has not publicly acknowledged any of his parents' birthdays or milestones since the rift began, around the time of David's 50th birthday celebrations, and did not share a Father's Day post this year.
It was reported that Brooklyn was "furious" that his parents had included him in a Father's Day post and wants them to "leave him alone".
Shortly before Christmas last year, Brooklyn blocked his parents on Instagram, and his lawyers later wrote to the Beckhams' team requesting that all communication be conducted through legal representatives.
In January, Brooklyn released a six-page statement denouncing his parents, announcing he had cut ties with the family and declaring he was no longer part of "Brand Beckham", describing his parents and siblings as "performative".
Brooklyn also claimed David and Victoria had controlled him for much of his life, tried to drive a wedge between him and his wife Nicola, and left him embarrassed when his mother danced "inappropriately" with him during the first dance at his wedding.
DoorDash Advert Backlash
Five months after saying he wanted privacy, Brooklyn was criticised by fans, who called him "classless" after he appeared in a DoorDash advert that referenced the family fallout.
In a teaser clip released on June 15, Brooklyn said: "You're probably wondering why I'm watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 from home... It's a long story."
The remark was seen as mocking his parents, with whom he no longer speaks, and profiting from their name. Friends of the Beckhams said the couple were "devastated and inconsolable" over the comment.
Brooklyn is thought to have been paid "at least $1million (£751,000)" for the campaign. A source said: "Anything that makes him money is good - it shows that his brand is there and flourishing."
A friend of the Beckhams told the Daily Mail's Katie Hind: "To do an advert based on estrangement from family as if it's a joke when his family is devastated and sister and grandparents inconsolable is shocking. Especially from someone who claims he wants peace and privacy."
