Brooklyn Beckham covers tattoos that honoured his parents

Published: Feb 05 2026

Brooklyn Beckham has reportedly undergone a transformation of his tattoos, which were previously dedicated to his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, amidst the ongoing family feud. The 26-year-old's right-arm anchor tattoo, which once proudly displayed the word "DAD" in bold letters, has been replaced with intricate designs that include a starfish and two life preservers. New photographs obtained by The Sun show Brooklyn out in Los Angeles with his wife, Nicola Peltz, with the revamped ink clearly visible.

A source revealed that Brooklyn underwent laser treatment to alter the tattoo he once had for his father. "He wanted it gone," the source said. Additionally, the source claimed that Brooklyn also covered up a chest tattoo that was dedicated to his mother, Victoria.

These changes come after Brooklyn publicly criticized his parents on Instagram last month, claiming he had no desire to reconcile with them and accusing them of interfering in his marriage to Peltz. He also alleged inappropriate behavior by Victoria at his 2022 wedding.

While the Beckhams have maintained a united front in public appearances, Peltz's father, billionaire Nelson Peltz, addressed the situation during a recent event. He advised the families to "stay the hell out of the press" but praised Brooklyn and Nicola, saying, "My daughter is great, my son-in-law, Brooklyn, is great, and I look forward to them having a long, happy marriage together."

The entire scenario paints a picture of a young man seeking to break away from his past and forge his own identity, even if it means altering his physical connection to his parents.
