Speaking after Brooklyn’s six-page statement criticising his parents for trying to “endlessly ruin” his marriage to Nicola Peltz Beckham, Bower said he felt sorry for him and praised the Peltz family as “hardworking” and supportive.
Bower compared Brooklyn’s experience to Prince Harry’s, suggesting that both faced intense pressure without being taught resilience.
Meanwhile, Brooklyn and Nicola shared photos from a Malibu getaway, highlighting their life together following the family tensions, and reiterated their love on social media.
Brooklyn has also accused Victoria of interfering at their wedding, including dancing “inappropriately” with him in front of guests, which was later supported by wedding DJ Fat Tony.
Representatives for the Beckhams have been contacted but have not commented.
