As we’ve previously reported, Brooklyn Beckham’s feud with his parents kicked into high gear this week, thanks to a scathing Instagram Story posted by the 26-year-old.
In his lengthy tirade, Brooklyn confirmed that David and Victoria never liked his wife, Nicola Peltz.
He also alleged that Victoria behaved inappropriately at his wedding and “hijacked” his first dance with Nicola.
It was a bridge-burning rant that might well mark the end of Brooklyn’s relationship with his parents.
And if there’s anyone who understands public family feuds it’s Prince Harry.
Now, one insider claims that Harry has stepped in as Brooklyn’s unofficial PR consultant in the hope of helping him navigate the rough waters ahead:
“Harry sees a lot of himself in Brooklyn,” a source tells royal journalist Rob Shuter.
“He doesn’t want Brooklyn to make the same emotional and strategic mistakes he made when he first broke away.”
Apparently, Harry’s main bit of advice to Brooklyn has been to take things slowly — which makes sense.
After all, the public got to know his parents first, and that face alone means that most people are more likely to side with Victoria and David, especially if Brooklyn comes off like a tantrum-prone toddler.
“Harry told him: don’t burn everything at once,” the insider said, adding:
“You only get one chance to tell your story the right way.”
The source says that Harry also urged Brooklyn to strongly consider the tone he uses when presenting his argument:
“Harry stressed that honesty works best when it’s controlled, thoughtful, and human,” the insider says.
Harry reportedly cautioned Brooklyn to remember what he’s gaining in all of this — but also what he’s losing
“He told him the freedom is real — but so is the fallout. You lose people. You get misunderstood. And once it’s out there, you can’t take it back,” the insider said of Harry’s advice, adding:
“This is mentorship born from scars. Harry’s trying to help him survive the part no one prepares you for.”
Indeed, when breaking from his own family, Harry always controlled his emotions and presented himself as the sensible party in the conflict.
“I don’t believe that I aired my dirty laundry in public. It was a difficult message, but I did it in the best way possible,” he said in one 2025 interview (via Radar Online) adding, “My conscience is clear.”
Again, Brooklyn’s relationship with his parents might well be a thing of the past after this week’s tirade — which makes it all the more importtant that he keeps the public on his side.

As we previously reported, Meghan Trainor revealed today that she’s welcomed her third child.
Meghan and husband Daryl Sabara shared the news that their newest addition, a girl named Mikey Trainor, arrived via surrogacy.
And while most of the comments on Meghan’s announcement have been congratulatory and supportive, others have been critical of her announcement.
Speaking with People, Trainor, 32, explained that surrogacy was not her first choice, but after consulting with her doctors, she decided it was the best option:
“It wasn’t our first choice, but we had endless conversations with our doctors on this journey, and this was the safest way for us to be able to continue growing our family,” Meghan said.
“We are forever grateful for that option,” she continued, adding:
“I want people to know that surrogacy is just another beautiful way to build a family. It’s not something to whisper about or judge. It’s rooted in trust, science, love, and teamwork.
“Every family’s journey looks different, and all of them are extremely valid.”
Trainor went on to state that she had “an incredible” experience with the surrogate, who remains anonymous.
“Our surrogate is one of the most selfless, strong and loving people I’ve ever met. We felt so connected throughout the entire journey, and I’ll always be grateful for the care and love she showed our daughter,” Meghan explained.
“She gave us the greatest gift of our lives. She graciously answered our many check-in texts to make sure she was doing okay.”
Of course, surrogacy remains a controversial topic on social media, especially in the case of someone like Meghan, who had already had multiple children and is still of child-bearing age.
“I find this photograph viscerally offensive. Somewhere in the background the desperate woman who gave birth to this child is bleeding. The things that money can buy,” wrote one user.
“This baby’s life is a gift—but surrogacy is deeply disordered,” another tweeted, adding:
“Human beings are not products or commodities. No one is owed a child. Women’s bodies are not tools. We should not be buying and selling and using human beings like this.
Trainor recently lost a good deal of weight by using Monjauro, and many on X (formerly Twitter) believe that she didn’t want to “ruin her Ozempic body” by getting pregnant:
“Megan Trainor used a surrogate because she is on a GLP-1. So fucking selfish. Surrogacy is human trafficking and always will be,” wrote one such user.
Supporters of Meghan’s argued that she suffered complications during her first two pregnancies.
But in most cases, critics countered that if that’s the case, then she should have just stopped at two children rather than hiring a surrogate.
It’s a complex issue, and like so many complex issues these days, it’s causing heated debate on social media — despite the fact that no one is succeeding int changing anyone else’s mind.

Unfortunately, some things are unavoidable.
One of those things seems to be participating in Justin Baldoni’s legal war with Blake Lively.
That trespassing process server never reached her, but Taylor Swift’s still getting dragged into this.
Team Baldoni is hoping to treat her as a hostile witness.
This legal war is full of A-listers (and also Justin Baldoni)
According to a report by TMZ, Justin Baldoni’s legal team fully intends to drag Taylor Swift into the courtroom.
Deposition or no, his attorneys plan to call her as a hostile witness.
(She’s not going to like this — and, honestly, who would?)
Their position is that Swift’s alleged involvement in Baldoni’s dispute with Blake Lively is “clear,” she’ll have no choice in the matter.
The notion that their involvement is clear seems to stem from recent court filings.
For example, as we recently reported, Swift referred to Baldoni as “that bitch” in a 2024 text message.
It was not in a flattering, “100% that bitch” context.
Specifically, she wrote to Lively: “I think this bitch knows something is coming because he’s gotten out his tiny violin.”
At another point, Swift texted Lively: “If Justin was strategic, he would be like no Taylor Swift in the trailer because that gives you more power over the film, that’s your ally not his.”
Lively’s deposition acknowledged that she had, at one point, shared a script with Swift.
He has maintained that he did nothing wrong, and that this is about making a movie
Baldoni has seem convinced — perhaps genuinely — that the numerous complaints about his behavior, from sharing details about his penis with coworkers to improvising kisses on set, were not really about him.
His assertion has been that Lively wanted creative control over the film at any cost.
And he has also seemed to believe that Swift was a weapon — or at least, backup — in her efforts to coerce changes to the script.
It’s likely that there were genuine creative differences that had nothing to do with Baldoni’s behavior or sexual misconduct allegations.
But given how many women have echoed Lively’s concerns and made their own, separate complaints, this doesn’t look like a power play.
Like it or not, it is Team Baldoni’s job to convince the court — when this goes to trial, months from now — that things aren’t what they appear.
It seems likely that they will attempt to make it look like Lively spun a conspiracy to strongarm the film away from Baldoni (who was her co-star, director, and part of the production company behind it).
Whether they outright accuse Lively of lying (and thus, by extensions, other actresses including Jenny Slate and Isabela Ferrer) remains to be seen.
But it’s clear that Baldoni’s attorney, Bryan Freedman, plans to use Taylor Swift to make his case.
Whether she likes it or not.
What is a ‘hostile witness’ exactly?
If you’re wondering what a “hostile witness” is, you’re not alone. The term appears in popular culture, though often as a joke.
A hostile witness is a witness who disagrees with the attorney questioning them.
This can mean a witness who simply has a contrary opinion regarding the facts of the case or legal matters. But this can also mean a witness who is openly and directly adversarial.
Simply put, if you’re asking a regular witness something, they basically just have to reiterate what they already told investigators or what they already said in a deposition.
With Swift, Baldoni’s team plans to ask leading questions and verbally spar. It’s allowed, up to a point.
But the court may be more forgiving than Swifties. Watch out!
