All About David and Victoria Beckham’s 4 Kids

David and Victoria Beckham first became parents after the birth of their son, Brooklyn, in March 1999, and since then, they’ve added three more children to their family.

Their second son, Romeo, arrived in September 2002, followed by son Cruz in February 2005 and daughter Harper in July 2011.

Now adults and teenagers, the Beckham children have begun to pursue their own passions, including cooking, soccer, music and modeling. “They are a wonder to me every day. From playing sport to lounging on the sofa, each of my children fill every second with laughter, music and discussion,” Victoria wrote in a 2015 Mother’s Day letter for TIME. “They are kind-hearted and well-mannered and have incredibly enquiring minds, and I feel incredibly blessed to be surrounded by these phenomenal human beings.”

In recent months, however, the famous family has fueled plenty of speculation about a feud involving Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, which seemed to come to a head in January 2026 when Brooklyn condemned the way his family treats Nicola and accused his parents of being “controlling” in a lengthy Instagram Stories post.

Here’s everything to know about David and Victoria Beckham’s children.

Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, 26

David and Victoria welcomed their first child, Brooklyn Joseph Beckham, on March 4, 1999, at Portland Hospital in London. The name was a favorite of the couple’s and made perfect sense as Victoria explained she was in New York City when she discovered she was pregnant. Brooklyn’s parents later named Elton John as his godfather.

Brooklyn spent much of his childhood in rural Oxfordshire, although his father’s career as a soccer star also took the family to Madrid and Los Angeles. As a teenager, Brooklyn considered following in David’s footsteps and joined the Arsenal FC Academy. Although he had played soccer almost his entire life to that point, he decided it wasn’t the career path he wanted to pursue and was eventually dropped by the youth team before he turned 16 years old.

Instead of soccer, Brooklyn dabbled in modeling, making his debut on the cover of Man About Town magazine. He went on to appear on the cover of Vogue China and Miss Vogue as well as British Vogue with his mother and siblings. He also appeared in publications like Interview and Dazed Korea — and even landed campaigns with brands including Superdry and Huawei.

While modeling, Brooklyn also fell in love with photography. He studied the subject in school and after, “straight away” knowing it was something he was interested in. He was given the opportunity to hone his skills in the real world; he regularly shot photos backstage at his mom’s fashion shows and landed a gig shooting an ad campaign for Burberry’s Brit fragrance. Brooklyn even scored an internship with famed British fashion photographer David Sims.

When he was just 18, Brooklyn released his first photography book, What I See, which shared a series of snapshots from his life, with each chapter telling a different story through his photos. Brooklyn’s love of photography led him to Parsons School of Design in N.Y.C., although he only stayed at the college for a year.

Nowadays, Brooklyn’s primary focus is on cooking. He hosted his own Facebook Watch show, Cookin’ with Brooklyn, and launched his hot sauce brand, Cloud 23, in 2024.

In his personal life, Brooklyn has been married to his wife, Nicola Peltz, since April 2022. The couple began dating in October 2019 and got engaged less than a year later.

In the years since the wedding, there was speculation about a rumored rift between Brooklyn and Nicola and his parents. In January 2026, Brooklyn broke his silence on the alleged feud, accusing dad David and mom Victoria of trying to “ruin” his marriage and manipulating the press.

“I do not want to reconcile with my family,” Brooklyn wrote in a series of shocking posts on his Instagram Stories on Jan. 19. “I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”

“Brand Beckham comes first. Family ‘love’ is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo,” he later added

During an appearance on CNBC’s Squawk Box the following day, David seemed to respond to Brooklyn’s accusations, saying, “[Kids] make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes. That is how they learn. That is what I try to teach my kids. You sometimes have to let them make those mistakes as well.”

At the time, a source told PEOPLE that Brooklyn and Nicola “never wanted any” of the drama.

“They just wanted to quietly live their lives and be married but after reading enough of the relentless inaccuracies about Nicola, a family member had had enough and wanted to set the record straight last year,” the source said, “And then the Beckhams had plenty of time to make amends and try and fix the damage and instead they continued to push these false narratives, and Brooklyn and Nicola are just sick of it. Brooklyn knows his truth and was ready to speak it.”

Romeo James Beckham, 23

On Sept. 1, 2002, David and Victoria welcomed their second child, Romeo James Beckham. Like his big brother, the little boy was born at Portland Hospital in London. Following his birth, David shared that they chose Romeo’s moniker because “it’s just a name we love.” He also noted that the infant already had “Brooklyn’s nose and Victoria’s chin.”

As a toddler, Romeo experienced some health issues that put him in the hospital on numerous occasions. Victoria eventually shared that Romeo had been diagnosed with epilepsy, a condition that causes seizures and convulsions. After the revelation, paparazzi agreed to refrain from photographing the little boy as the constant flashing could trigger a seizure.

Romeo went on to attend private schools in London while growing up. He even made his modeling debut as a child, starring in a campaign for Burberry Kids at just 10 years old. As a teen, he landed his first cover, appearing on the front of L’Uomo Vogue’s Generation Issue.

In addition to modeling, Romeo also decided to follow in his father’s footsteps and pursued a career in soccer. Like Brooklyn, he joined Arsenal FC Academy but ultimately stepped away when he was 13. He briefly put his soccer dreams aside in favor of playing tennis, training four to five days a week and even getting the chance to play alongside professionals like Andy Murray.

Just a few years later, Romeo decided to give soccer another try, and at 19, he joined Fort Lauderdale CF, the sister club of Inter Miami CF, which is co-owned by his dad. The team competes in League One of the United Soccer League and in September 2021, he made his professional debut in a match against Tormenta FC.

Cruz David Beckham, 20

David and Victoria celebrated the arrival of their son Cruz David Beckham on Feb. 20, 2005, at Hospital Ruber Internacional in Madrid. Following Cruz’s birth, David shared that the little boy was “beautiful” and “very happy” to be surrounded by his two big brothers. When it came time to name him, David admitted that it was “hard this time,” but the couple came up with a name that they both loved and “stuck to it.”

Although Cruz was born in Spain while his dad was playing with Real Madrid, he moved to L.A. with his family when David began playing soccer with L.A. Galaxy. He quickly proved he was meant to be in the spotlight when he took the stage with the Spice Girls at age 3.

When Cruz was 11, he announced he would be following in his mom’s footsteps with his first foray into music. In December 2016, he released his debut single, “If Every Day Was Christmas,” to help raise funds for the children’s charity Make Me Some Noise. He even recruited his family to be a part of the music video. Since then, he’s picked up skills on the guitar, mandolin and piano — and has also learned to record his own music.

Cruz has also modeled, landing his first magazine cover in 2022. He noted that while he’s trying out a career in front of the camera, his primary focus will always be music. He’s worked with numerous producers, including Poo Bear, and is set on “just making the music” he loves that chronicles “personal” and “real experiences.”

“I don’t think you ever stop learning, but I’m taking my time seeing what happens,” he told i-D magazine.

In February 2023, Victoria and David celebrated Cruz’s 18th birthday. They each shared the same tribute — a montage of photos and videos from throughout Cruz’s life — on their respective Instagram accounts.

“Happy 18th Birthday to our baby boy ❤️ to the most amazing boy with the most amazing energy and the biggest heart x we are so proud of you and we love you so much Cruzie ❤️,” the soccer star captioned his post, while Victoria wrote: “Happy Birthday Cruzie!! We all love you so much and are so proud of the incredible young man you have become 🙏🏼 You are our everything. Happy 18th superstar.”

A few months later, Cruz paid tribute to his mother by getting Victoria’s Spice Girls moniker, “Posh,” tattooed on his right arm.

Harper Seven Beckham, 14

On July 10, 2011, Victoria and David welcomed Harper Seven Beckham at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in L.A. David later revealed that the couple loved that Harper is an old English name and appreciated its connection to the author of To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee. He noted that Seven was also a special name, symbolizing spiritual perfection.

“The main reason behind Seven was it symbolizes spiritual perfection — the seven wonders of the world, the seven colors of the rainbow — and in many cultures it is a lucky number. We love the name and we love Harper Seven. We are very happy to have her in our lives and in our family, and it is an amazing time for our family right now,” David said in a Facebook video.

As she’s grown up, David and Victoria have shared plenty of photos and videos of their daughter, who appears to have a wide range of interests outside of school. From playing soccer with her dad to horseback riding to training for judo, she seems to be excited to try as many extracurricular activities as she can.

Harper has also walked several red carpets with her famous family as well, including the premieres of her parents’ documentaries Beckham and Victoria Beckham in 2023 and 2025, respectively.
