The eldest Beckham son's Instagram post featured eight photos of himself and his wife, but none of the newlyweds

Brooklyn Beckham has found himself at the centre of fresh social media controversy after fans spotted one glaring omission from his latest wedding tribute.

The 27-year-old took to Instagram on Tuesday to congratulate his brother-in-law, Will Peltz, and his new wife, Kenya Kinski-Jones, following their lavish wedding earlier this month.


Sharing the carousel of photographs from the celebrations, Brooklyn wrote: "Congratulations Kenya and Will x we love you guys so much x you guys are the best and I couldn't be more happy for you both." (sic)

However, eagle-eyed followers quickly noticed that while the caption was dedicated to the bride and groom, not a single image actually featured the newly married couple.

Instead, the post consisted entirely of photographs of Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz-Beckham, enjoying the celebrations.

The post quickly attracted thousands of reactions, with many users poking fun at the unusual tribute.

One of the most-liked comments, which received almost 3,000 likes, read: "Are Kenya and Will in the room with us?"

Another, which amassed more than 2,500 likes, joked: "Who are you congratulating? All these pictures are of you……"

A third person quipped: "Congratulations Kenya and Will. Here's 4 thousand photos of me," alongside a laughing emoji.

Others were equally amused by the absence of the newlyweds.

"You should add a proper picture of bride and groom," one follower wrote.

Another penned: "Looks pretty narcissistic to me. Where's the bride and groom?"

One comment referenced the Beckham's ongoing family feud, writing: "Hey guys, here are pictures of me and wife being 'happy' so it takes away from the fact that I disowned my own family but still using that Beckham name!!!!!!!!!!"

Despite the wave of criticism, many fans came to Brooklyn's defence.

"What a beautiful couple," one supporter wrote.

Another suggested there may have been a reason for the lack of wedding photographs, commenting: "Clearly the bride and groom requested for their party not to post pictures."

A third added: "Forget the negative comments here!!!! You two are fabulous and there's ALOT of jealousy!!! Keep being real and be you, you are loved!!!" (sic)

Will and Kenya tied the knot on June 13 at the Peltz family's historic estate in Mount Kisco, New York.

The intimate ceremony united two high-profile families, with Nicola and Brooklyn among the official wedding party.

Kenya also paid several heartfelt tributes to her late father, legendary music producer Quincy Jones, who died in 2024.

A piece of his handwriting was embroidered into her custom wedding gown, while her bouquet was wrapped in one of his ties and featured a locket containing his photograph.

The lavish celebrations also included an unexpected pause during the reception as guests watched the New York Knicks secure the NBA Championship before heading straight back to the dance floor.

Brooklyn's latest social media post comes amid his highly publicised estrangement from parents Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham.

Relations between the eldest Beckham son and his family have deteriorated significantly in recent months, with Brooklyn publicly insisting earlier this year that he had no desire to reconcile.

The rift has since deepened through a series of public disagreements, including Brooklyn's controversial Fifa World Cup advertisement for DoorDash, his absence from several major Beckham family milestones and continued speculation surrounding the fractured relationship.
