In a new interview with The Wall Street Journal‘s WSJ. Magazine, she did not refer to her son by name. “We’ve always tried to be the best parents that we can be … And you know, we’ve been in the public eye for more than 30 years right now, and all we’ve ever tried to do is protect our children and love our children. And you know, that’s all I really want to say about it,” she added.
Brooklyn got married to Nicola Peltz in 2022. In January, he revealed his estranged relationship with his parents in a series of revealing and incendiary Instagram Stories. “I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private,” Brooklyn wrote. “Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed.”
Brooklyn also claimed Victoria “hijacked” his first dance with Peltz and canceled plans to design and create her wedding dress “in the eleventh hour.” Both his parents, David and Victoria, allegedly “bribe[d] [Brooklyn] into signing away the rights to [his] name” on multiple occasions. Brooklyn also made a request that his parents should only contact him through lawyers.
“My wife has been consistently disrespected by my family, no matter how hard we’ve tried to come together as one,” Brooklyn stated. “My family values public promotion and endorsements above all else. Brand Beckham comes first.”
