Ups and Downs in the Beckham Clan: King Charles III to Knight David While Son Romeo Splits from Kim Turnbull

The Beckham family is going through a series of upheavals that prevent them from fully enjoying the good news they are also receiving. It has been revealed that King Charles III will knight David Beckham almost simultaneously with the news of his son Romeo's breakup with Kim Turnbull. The highs and lows of a clan that seemed unbreakable until Brooklyn Beckham decided to distance himself.

Queen Elizabeth II had already awarded the former England player the Order of the British Empire in 2003. Last year, King Charles III appointed him as an ambassador for his charitable organisation, and later this week, on the occasion of the sovereign's official birthday, it is expected that the honorary title will be made official, making David Sir David and Victoria Lady Beckham.

A wonderful piece of news that fans of the Inter Miami owner had been waiting for years, which has arrived at a turbulent time for the Beckhams, with their son Brooklyn estranged from the family and Romeo's romantic breakup.

Romeo Beckham and Kim Turnbull began dating seven months ago. The start of their romance marked the breakup with Brooklyn, who years ago also had an affair with the model and suspected the young woman's intentions towards his brother. However, it seems these differences had nothing to do with the couple's breakup, who have decided to part ways amicably. "Romeo and Kim are young and had fun together, but at that age, things don't always last forever," the Daily Mail reported from sources close to the former couple.

In any case, it has also been emphasised that "David and Victoria would be upset if it were thought that Kim is the cause. The reality is that both are very focused on their careers and were constantly travelling. The relationship was not sustainable." The footballer and the designer have supported this brief relationship at all times, and the young model participated in various events organised to celebrate David's 50th birthday, where there was no sign of their son Brooklyn or his wife, Nicola Peltz.

Their absence from family events was the definitive proof of the family rift, which, despite Romeo's separation, shows no signs of reconciliation. Recently, the couple was featured in Glamour Germany magazine, where the photographer posed with his wife with a bare torso, showing his new tattoo: a bouquet of flowers strategically covering a previous tattoo in honour of his mother that read: "Mama's Boy."

Recently, it has also been revealed that the young couple has hired the services of British lawyer Jenny Afia, known for representing Prince Harry and Meghan Markle during their disputes with the media. It is a firm specialising in privacy, reputation, and media cases that will advise them from now on, and whose hiring has been interpreted as a statement of intent against their family, drawing a parallel between what happened with Charles III and his son, and David Beckham and Brooklyn.

Amid these speculations, a legal source cited by People magazine wanted to clarify that "there is no connection with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. Schikkings is a respected firm with a wide client portfolio. Ironically, the inaccurate information demonstrates exactly why legal counsel is hired: to clarify matters and combat the spread of deliberate misinformation."

We will have to wait for David Beckham's knighthood to see if his son Brooklyn decides to congratulate him or opts to remain silent, as he did on his 50th birthday. In this regard, despite the breakup between Romeo and Kim, The Mirror has reported that "there is no turning back." "Unfortunately, there are no signs of reconciliation. There is still a lot of pain to process," a source close to the family expressed. In fact, the Daily Mail reported that Peltz had pointed out to her husband the "emotional abuse and toxic internal behaviour" of his family, accusations that David and Victoria's friends call "false and ridiculous."
