Brooklyn Beckham is said to be in talks with a major publisher for a tell-all book about his family drama.
The reported seven-figure deal is with Penguin Random House, which published Prince Harry’s explosive memoir Spare in 2023, according to the US Sun.
“Everyone is clamouring to get their handson this,” a source told the publication.
“These firms don’t have any loyalty to Victoria and David Beckham, and are happy to pay for Brooklyn to get everything off his chest, especially given his willingness to permanently cut all ties with his parents.
“He clearly has a lot on his mind and now is the time to put the truth on paper.
“The ball is completely in his and Nicola’s court and their literary options are limitless, especially if Brooklyn really feels like he has a 300-page book in him.”

The US Sun also reported Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz are in negotiations for a sit-down interview with talk show queen Oprah Winfrey.
The proposed interview has drawn strong comparisons to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s bombshell 2021 interview with the television titan, in which the couple detailed their decision to step back from the British royal family.
Last week, Brooklyn, 26, released a series of six Instagram stories blasting his “evil” parents, claiming they had “been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped“.
He alleged his sports businessman and fashion designer parents had controlled him “for most of my life” and that his “anxiety has disappeared” since leaving his family.

Brooklyn also took particular aim at his mother Victoria, saying the former Spice Girl left him “uncomfortable and humiliated” after she danced on him “very inappropriately” at his wedding reception.
“In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where, according to the schedule, my romantic dance with my wife was planned, but instead, my mum was waiting to dance with me.”
Memes and satirical AI-generated videos depicting Victoria dancing in inappropriate scenarios have since spread across TikTok and Instagram.

David Beckham addressed Brooklyn’s posts in an interview last week, saying: “Children are allowed to make mistakes, that’s how they learn... you have to sometimes let them make those mistakes as well”.
