Victoria Beckham is reportedly anxious about her son Brooklyn Beckham and daughter-in-law Nicola Peltz’s upcoming reality TV project, fearing it could drag up painful family history and strain relationships even further.
According to Heat World, insiders close to the fashion designer claim she is “horrified” by the idea. Having experienced the downsides of fame herself, Victoria is said to be concerned that the couple’s ambition and willingness to embrace the reality TV format may come at the family’s expense.
“She knows how ambitious Nicola and Brooklyn are, and she knows from her own bitter experience how toxic reality TV is,” one source revealed. “Nicola and Brooklyn are going to be pushed to spill dirt on their show — that’s how the genre works. There are plenty of skeletons in her and David’s past that could be dredged up. She and David have always been so in control of their image, and the idea of it all being taken out of their hands is sickening.”
The insider also suggested that Victoria is particularly unsettled by the prospect of family tensions being amplified on-screen. “It’s hard to imagine a worse scenario for Victoria than having her own daughter-in-law turn on her like this,” the source said. “She’s tried so hard to fix things, but Nicola is like a runaway train and Brooklyn is right there with her. It is truly heartbreaking.”
Despite the family maintaining a united front publicly, the reported strain behind closed doors has been significant. The insider added: “As much as she and the family are putting on this happy public face, the pain of this is dominating everything they do right now.”
The upcoming show has already sparked fears that long-standing rumors about tension between Victoria and Nicola could resurface in an even more public way. While the Beckhams have carefully cultivated their reputation over the years, reality TV thrives on drama and controversy — two things Victoria is said to be desperate to avoid.
“The fear of what this show might bring just adds another horrible layer to their agony,” the source concluded. “There have already been so many tears over this divide.”
As Brooklyn and Nicola move forward with their plans, it appears the potential fallout is weighing heavily on Victoria, who has built her brand and family image on discretion and control — qualities that reality TV could threaten to unravel.
