Photographer, chef, hot sauce connoisseur, and now author? Brooklyn Beckham could be about spill even more wedding drama in a new book.
Rumours of a tell-all memoir, co-written by Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz, have emerged after his bombshell statement on Instagram.
The couple are reportedly in talks with Penguin Random House for a memoir detailing his fallout with parents Sir David and Victoria Beckham, focused on his nuptials.
A seven-figure deal is said to be on the table, which is hardly surprising as, according to The Sun’s insider, ‘everyone is clamouring to get their hands on this.’
The source shared: ‘These firms don’t have any loyalty to Victoria and David Beckham, and are happy to pay for Brooklyn to get everything off his chest, especially given his willingness to permanently cut all ties with his parents.
‘He clearly has a lot on his mind and now is the time to put the truth on paper. The ball is completely in his and Nicola’s court and their literary options are limitless, especially if Brooklyn really feels like he has a 300-page book in him.’
So far, the Beckhams themselves have stayed fairly silent on their side of things, probably waiting for the ‘inappropriate’ wedding dance memes to burn out.
Sir David did comment on children ‘making mistakes’ but a source close to Brooklyn has stressed that is actions were not a ‘final cry for help’.
‘If people think it’s the end, it’s actually the beginning,’ they previously said to the Daily Mail.
Apparently, Brooklyn has been offered book deals before but has always dismissed them or suggested it’s something for the future.
However, his recent family drama seems to have changed his tune.
‘This is the first time he’s seriously considered telling his side of the story to clear the air,’ the source said. ‘He’s sick of others rewriting it for him.’
Penguin Random House is a natural fit for the chef as it’s through them that he published his photography collection, What I See, in 2017.
The book was widely mocked, even if it sold well, with iconic pictures such as the silhouette elephant still referenced almost a decade later.
Brooklyn wouldn’t be the first Brit to drop a tell-all memoir after cutting ties with his family and moving to the States with his American wife.
Prince Harry’s Spare was declared the fastest-selling non-fiction book of all time by Guinness World Records upon its release in 2023.
It’s hardly surprising, given the popularity of that book and the comparisons already flying between the two, that the hot sauce salesman might be swayed.
Some sources have also suggested he and Nicola could be planning to do an Oprah-style tell-all interview, too.
Brooklyn has also been spending time with the Sussexes, including dinner in their Montecito home and using legal representation previously associated with the couple.
His parents, or Sir David and Victoria as he’s reportedly now calling them, are allegedly unwilling to push too hard for fear they’ll lose him for good.

‘They know they have to be careful,’ the Mail’s source added. ‘If they push him, if they deny it publicly or hit back, it only makes him more inclined to go further.
‘They’ve learned from the mistakes of others. This is a game of chess.’
After months of speculation and rumours surrounding the nature of his relationship with his parents, Brooklyn broke his silence in a shocking statement.
Among his allegations, the former photographer and eldest Beckham child accused his family of ‘bribery’ and ‘controlling’ him.
He also declared emphatically that he does not wish to reconcile with his former footballer pro dad and fashion designer mum, despite recent swirling reports that a reunion could be on the cards.
