Victoria Beckham, decorated in Paris at her lowest personal moment

Barcelona"I got botulinum toxin injected into my forehead and I can't even express how awful I feel, sister."It's a phrase that many will recognize because it was uttered by one of the most viral personalities of recent times, Triana Marrash, the undisputed winner of The House of the Twins 2. This phrase, which many will criticize more for its context than its actual meaning, perfectly encapsulates Victoria Beckham's current situation. This week, she received an award from the French Ministry of Culture in Paris, her expression difficult to interpret from a cinematic perspective. It was hard to decipher whether she felt bad about everything happening with her son despite the moment of great joy, or if she had simply used too much Botox for the occasion, making that the most exquisite face she could muster. Perhaps her facial expression was a combination of all these things. In any case, the Catalan actress Triana Marrash hasn't been a prophet in her own land, but she has been in the land of the Enlightenment. Who would have thought that through her words we could so accurately interpret something that happened in France...

French Minister of Culture Rachida Dati presented the former Spice Girl with the Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters on Monday for her achievements, having fought hard to be taken seriously in a sector where, initially, many saw her simply as another celebrity playing at being a designer with her husband's money. Therefore, this distinction, which the French Minister of Culture presented to her during Paris Haute Couture Week, is for her public confirmation that she is recognized without reservation in her field, both at home and abroad. The ceremony was attended by an exceptional group: Anna Wintour, the owner of the Kering group (Gucci, YSL...) and the owner of LVMH (Louis Vuitton, Dior...).

Applause that sounds like reproach

At that very special moment, Victoria Beckham didn't smile much, nor did she cry. We don't know if it was a brand positioning decision or if, given all the global commotion surrounding the nonexistent relationship she and David Beckham have with their eldest son, Brooklyn, and his wife, Nicola Peltz, she decided to leave her emotions at home. sine dieWhat didn't happen was her entire family, who, as expected, accompanied her to the event in their finest attire, with the clear intention of presenting themselves to the world as a functional and united family. The applause during Victoria's speeches from her husband, her children, and their girlfriends was anything but timid. Nor was their celebration of the award on social media, where their every move is meticulously analyzed by journalists from around the globe.

David Beckham dedicated a series of photographs to her, showing the whole family having a blast, and wrote: "We are so proud of you and everything you have achieved. No one deserves this award more than you." His 14-year-old daughter, Harper, was equally affectionate, telling her she is her "greatest role model," as was his son, Romeo, who reminded her that "no one deserves the award more" than her, adding "I love you, Mom." The girlfriends of the Beckham sons also showed their affection on social media, appearing dressed in Victoria Beckham designs.

Brooklyn, the loner

It's clear to everyone that all these public displays of affection are a clear endorsement of the designer and the footballer in the family feud. While their eldest son openly explains on Instagram that he never wants to have any further contact with his parents because they have caused him anxiety his entire life and have always tried to control him, the rest of the family has unanimously supported Victoria and David. This is an absolute declaration of war against their brother, whom they portray in a very bad light by siding with their parents, since it demonstrates that they have never experienced anxiety or been controlled by them. Or at least that this hasn't bothered them as much, since they have been able to confirm that thanks to their own control They have achieved a lot in their respective careers as models, musicians or influencers that if they had started out on their own and without their famous surname.

Amidst this delicate landscape of passive-aggressive backstabbing in front of the millions of followers they all have on social media, the Daily Mail It has been reported that Brooklyn Beckham is considering publishing offers to write a book in which he would explain his side of the story. In other words, in which he would air his family's alleged dirty laundry. The British tabloid added in this story that he has been receiving offers for years to capitalize on his surname and sell many copies, but that he had always been this way. The newspaper says that now the eldest Beckham son has changed his mind. To support this theory, the newspaper cites sources familiar with these events who made a damning statement about the stories in which Brooklyn destroyed his relationship with his entire family: "If people think that was the end, it was only the beginning."

Nicola, the origin of evil

And to top it all off, more media leaks from the Beckham parents. According to a source published by the magazine PeopleThe Beckhams are open to reconciling with their son and would accept Brooklyn's return home "without hesitation." However, there is one condition they are unwilling to accept: this will not happen if he remains with Nicola Peltz, whom they blame for all the problems related to his current nonexistent relationship with their son. This leak—completely intentional on the part of the Beckhams, to whom their son had instructed them to only contact him through his lawyers—does not help to create a solid foundation for a future reconciliation. In fact, the same source acknowledges this: "It's not an ultimatum that Brooklyn is expected to accept. In the last three years—he has been married to Nicola Peltz since 2022—he has felt more support from his wife than from his parents throughout his entire life," another source explained. People.

Given all the international interest this family show has generated, it's hard to imagine it ending anytime soon. A family as media-savvy as the Beckhams, a son as resentful—and with no known monetizable talent beyond criticizing his parents—as Brooklyn, and a daughter-in-law as eager for fame—and with so many mediocre acting projects she desperately needs to promote—as Nicola Peltz, all suggest this will be a never-ending cycle. Perhaps the only agreement they'll eventually reach is to make a reality A well-paid affair where they'll stage a reconciliation. It could satisfy everyone's ambitions—financial, brand-related, and in terms of fame. Not the emotional ones, but I think by now everyone's already given up on those...
