Brooklyn Beckham’s ex reveals what life was really like inside the ‘feuding’ family
They dated when she was 20.
Brooklyn Beckham’s ex-girlfriend Lexi Wood has spoken highly of the Beckham clan following weeks of speculation the famous family are going through an internal feud.
Lexi, who dated eldest Beckham son Brooklyn when she was 20, has opened up about what the atmosphere in the famous household was like.
Her observations come as it is rumoured Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, are in a spat with the rest of the Beckham family after he was notably absent fromhis dad David’s big 50th birthday celebrations at the weekend.
Not only did he miss the party, but he wasn’t on David’s ‘boys’ fishing trip with Cruz and Romeo – something the former footballer acknowledged on social media, tagging Brooklyn in pictures from their trip and saying: ‘You were missed.’
Lexi had nothing but positive things to report about the Beckham’s family dynamics, spear-headed by Manchester United star David, 50, and former Spice Girl Victoria, 51.
‘Those families are great,’ she said talking on The Viall Files, referring to the Beckhams and her other ‘nepo baby’ ex Presley Gerber’s famous parents, Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber.
‘I have never been on dating apps. I genuinely just meet people through friends,’ she said, explaining that she and Brooklyn met like this.

Lexi continued: ‘Like, families that are in the industry, that give each other advice, work with each other where they can, like that are so close, travel together, live together, they do so much together.
‘That mindset is your family has your back period. I do feel like those families are great.’

I feel like immediately I didn’t think anything of it. Then he was just his dad.’
Asked who was more intimidating, Victoria or David, Lexi said, ‘They were just both lovely.’
The model also explained that because they were young during their relationship, the pair largely spent their time alone and not in the wider family – apart from when they ‘hung out with’ Brooklyn’s younger brother Romeo, 22.
