By the looks of things, Brooklyn Beckham hasn’t spoken to his family all year. I think he went no-contact with them last year, when David and Victoria’s PR operation was regularly briefing the Daily Mail and other outlets. Brooklyn only went public with this estrangement in January of this year – his Instagram Stories statement really shifted the dynamic of the Beckham-beef, and it’s become increasingly obvious that David and Victoria still don’t respect Brooklyn’s marriage, and they’re actively rooting for his divorce. Well, if you can believe it, it turns out that family estrangements can’t be solved by A) refusing to apologize and B) sending the tabloids after your adult son for daring to get married to a rich woman. Brooklyn still isn’t speaking to his parents, and they’re worried that their family beef will ruin the World Cup!!

Victoria Beckham was the belle of the ball in Manhattan this week as she launched her Gap collection — which sold out almost immediately Friday — and was feted as one of Time’s 100 most influential people. As usual, the trip was a family affair, with doting husband David, son Cruz, 21, and mini-me daughter Harper, 14, in tow for a fashion launch party at private club People’s and dinners at trendy hot spots Coqodaq and Salam. But behind the smiles, Victoria is still reeling over the ongoing estrangement from her oldest son Brooklyn, 27, who was busy cooking pasta online at his Los Angeles home.

“Everything’s going really well — but Brooklyn’s not there,” said a source in the know, who insisted the family will “never give up hope” of reuniting with their boy.

It’s been almost a year since David, 50, and Victoria, 52, have had any contact with their son, Page Six can reveal, and insiders said the Beckhams are shocked and “saddened” the freeze-out has lasted this long.

Hopes that relations will be repaired in time for the World Cup in June, when the family will set up camp in the US, are now fading. “Everything is frozen in place,” said one insider.

We can reveal that Brooklyn has only kept in touch, by text, with his grandparents — his dad’s mom, Sandra, and Victoria’ parents, Jackie and Tony — and even that is infrequent.

Brooklyn made headlines in January when he publicly condemned Victoria and David, accusing them of putting the Beckham brand before their children in a devastating statement on social media. “I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life,” he wrote at the time.

His wife, Nicola Peltz-Beckham, 31, is still believed to have a firm hand in keeping the family at odds. “She doesn’t think his family is good for him.” the insider told us.

But another source clarified: “It’s not just Nicola … Brooklyn did edit [the statement], he owned it fully … they’re not going to make up any time soon. There were points last year when an apology [from David and Victoria] would have worked, but not now.”

At this point, I wonder how any rapprochement would be made, you know? Brooklyn and Nicola have maintained this no-contact situation for the better part of a year, they’ve blocked David and Victoria everywhere, on social media and all of their devices and phones. I guess they need some sort of neutral third-party arbitrator, someone who hasn’t already been tasked with slamming Brooklyn publicly (there goes Gordon Ramsay). The thing is, I believe this: “There were points last year when an apology would have worked, but not now”- as in, Brooklyn gave his parents multiple chances to change course and/or apologize but they stayed on their bullsh-t. So it is what it is. Brooklyn’s not going to reconcile with his parents just because of the World Cup!! How random.
