Beckham family backs Victoria’s Paris runway show as Brooklyn skips

Victoria’s Paris runway finale sparked emotion, family pride and a lingering feud as Brooklyn skipped the night.

Beckham family backs Victoria’s Paris runway show as Brooklyn skips

The Conciergerie on Boulevard du Palais transformed into a runway arena for Victoria Beckham’s Spring/Summer 2027 ready-to-wear collection. The venue, once a royal palace and later a Revolutionary prison, provided a dramatic backdrop for the former Spice Girl-turned-designer’s final catwalk moment.

Dressed in a sleek chocolate-brown suit, Victoria appeared visibly moved as the last model stepped off the stage, signalling the close of a show that blended classic tailoring with airy, asymmetric dresses.

Family members fill the front row

David Beckham claimed the prime seat in the front row, flanked by his three children and their partners.

Romeo, 24, chose a gunmetal grey oversize suit paired with a plain white tee and brown loafers, while Cruz, 21, radiated enthusiasm, flashing a thumbs-up to cameras. Harper, the 15-year-old, arrived in a piece from her mother’s line and later posted a selfie with Romeo, hinting at her forthcoming beauty brand, Harlo.

Their girlfriends—Jackie Apostel with Romeo and Kim Turnbull with Cruz—also wore Victoria designs, turning the family tableau into a live fashion billboard.

Brooklyn’s conspicuous absence

Amid the celebratory atmosphere, the family’s eldest son, Brooklyn Beckham, 27, was noticeably missing. Earlier that week he and his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, attended a jewellery showcase at the Messika event in Paris, a gathering that David briefly acknowledged by liking a video on social media. However, no invitation was extended for the runway show, and Brooklyn’s decision to stay away echoes a months-long rift that began after he declined participation in his father’s 50th-birthday festivities and publicly accused his parents of controlling his life.

Sources close to the family note that both parties deliberately avoided a chance encounter; Romeo was seen partying at the Plaza Athénée, while Brooklyn and Nicola dined nearby after a Balenciaga presentation. The Beckham camp believes a direct clash would only heighten the already “devastatingly strained” relationship.

Business milestone amid family drama

Beyond the personal storylines, Victoria’s label announced a financial breakthrough: an operating profit of £7.3 million for 2025, up from a £1.6 million loss the previous year. Total revenue climbed 15 % to £129.8 million, confirming the brand’s transition from a celebrity-driven label to a sustainable luxury business. In an Instagram post, Victoria thanked friends and family for their support, emphasizing how the collective effort over two decades finally yielded sustainable growth.

David Beckham echoed the sentiment, posting a photo of the entire family and writing, “We are so proud of you, yet again you show elegance, passion & beauty in how you want people to feel in your clothes.” His comment highlighted both the creative triumph and the personal pride that the event represented for the Beckham household.

While the show featured power suits, floaty asymmetric dresses and daring heel choices, the underlying narrative was clear: the Beckham family continues to rally around Victoria’s fashion ambitions, even as internal fissures remain unresolved. The evening concluded with a heartfelt thank-you from Victoria, who described feeling “blessed” to have her loved ones beside her, a sentiment that resonated with fans and industry insiders alike.
