SON BROOKLYN BLOCKS BECKHAMS
THE heartbreaking BECKHAM family feud has gotten uglier as sources blab that black sheep son BROOKLYN, 26, and his heiress wife, NICOLA 31, have totally blocked on social media his soccer icon dad DAVID and ex-Spice Girl mom VICTORIA along with his 14-year-old sister and two grown brothers.
The bad blood, which began flowing in 2020 when Nicola nixed fashion mogul Victoria’s offer to design her wedding dress, has turned into a nasty feud, with Brooklyn, a wannabe celebrity chef, and billionaire’s daughter Nicola, a wannabe movie star, now adrift from his famed family.
Sources say the insults escalated this summer when Nicola and Brooklyn excluded his family from their fancy-schmancy wedding vows renewal. His shocked parents only learned about the event on the internet, says a source, adding, “This was the final kick in the teeth for David and Victoria.”
Recently, Victoria said this about her battle with Nicola: “I love women... that’s part of the reason why I do what I do with fashion and beauty. I’m a girl’s girl... you’ve got to be a real a**hole for me to not get on with you if you’re a woman.” Oh yeah!
SLY'S OSCAR HEARTBREAK
SYLVESTER STALLONE soared from nobody to superstar when his self-written and starred-in flick about underdog boxer Rocky was nominated for 10 Oscars in 1977. While he didn’t win for Best Actor and Best Original Screenplay, the flic nabbed Best Director and Best Picture awards, launching the 31-year-old’s superstar career.
Now, the 79-year-old Tinseltown icon reveals that “volcanic moment” was also “very sad,” because his parents, who he had a rocky relationship with growing up and still sought their approval, were no-shows. “You want people that you love that denied you - now... you’re at the Oscars, and they don’t want to go,” recalls Sly. “You realize... you’re never ever going to come to terms with this. And it’s like... what f**king more do you need to do to say, I’m here. I did this?”
CLOONEY LOSES HIS BIG SISTER
Screen idol GEORGE CLOONEY, 64, is devastated over the passing of his “big sis” ADA ZEIDLER, 65, mourning: “She faced down cancer with courage and humor. I’ve never met anyone so brave. AMAL [his wife] and I will miss her terribly.”
While he, his journalist dad, NICK, and late songbird aunt ROSEMARY CLOONEY lived in the spotlight, Ada lived in relative obscurity. She grew up with George in Augusta, Ky., was a brainy National Merit scholar and became an elementary school art teacher. Rosemary sang at Ada’s 1987 marriage to hubby NORMAN, who died in 2004. While she shunned the limelight, she attended her baby brother’s 2014 celeb-studded wedding to human rights attorney Amal in Venice, Italy. On her passing, George lauded her, calling Ada “my hero!”
FULL HOUSE SISTERS MIX LIKE OIL & WATER
Former Full House siblings JODIE SWEETIN, 43, and CANDACE CAMERON BURE, 49, are as different as cats and dogs, but politically liberal Jodie still feels Christian conservative Candace is “the closest thing to a sister” she’s ever had. Still, their opposing beliefs caused them to unfollow each other on social media after Bure joined, in 2022, the Great American Media network, which pushes “traditional marriage.”
“We just exist in different worlds, but she is still someone I have known since I was 5 years old,” says Jodie, who champions gay marriage. She describes their feud as “like family members. Maybe we don’t talk all the time – but I don’t hate you... but I’m also not going to not keep my mouth shut.”
DENISE'S EX COMPARES HER TO ACCUSED KILLER
What does reality star and former Bond girl DENISE RICHARDS have in common with NICK REINER, who’s accused of the bloody slaughter of his famous dad, ROB REINER, and mom MICHELE? A lot, according to her estranged hubby AARON PHYPERS, who accuses Denise of being a druggie like jailed Nick. “Do a drug test [on her],” says broke holistic healer Phypers. “When people are on a bunch of substances and washing it down with other substances, what happens?” Real Housewives babe Denise had Phypers jailed in October for alleged “frequent” and “violent” abuse during their marriage, flaunting pics of her with a black eye. Out on a $200G bond, Phypers claims she’s a falling-down drunk and druggie and that’s how she got her injuries.
