What did social media say?
A Reddit user posted, “I've stayed silent on the entire thing as I felt like people's opinions were shaped by the fact that they liked Posh & Becks better than they liked Brooklyn and Nicola. After reading this, I feel for Brooklyn.”
Another added, “Wow, this is beyond messy. If what he's saying is true, this is a terrible look for the Beckhams.” A third continued, “I have no reason to dismiss this as someone who was indirectly affected in similar ways, not with my parents but my mom’s extended family. It’s tough.”
A fourth wrote, “I believe him. My family is pretty much the same way, with your worth being determined by how well you make the family look. I never once questioned that the Beckhams were a toxic family the moment I learned he was estranged from them.”
