THE Beckham brothers are in the 'Gen Z version of World War Three' after Romeo and Cruz blocked Brooklyn on social media.
The younger boys are accused of turning their backs on Brooklyn for good, and sending the family deeper into crisis.

Model Brooklyn, 26, and wife Nicola, 30, are said to be 'blindsided' after learning of the snub.
A source said: 'Blocking or unfollowing someone on Instagram is like the Gen Z version of World War Three. It's a sad new low.
'But the truth is, Brooklyn has cut out his parents David and Victoria from his life and it's the same with Romeo and Cruz.
"Even when the family have reached out to Brooklyn they have been ignored.
'He's not had contact for months and it feels clear to them that he doesn't want to make amends.'
The feud, which The Sun understands started over money, has been bubbling for several months.
Yesterday it was initially reported that Brooklyn and Nicola had unfollowed Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20.
But those close to Brooklyn said this was not true.
A friend said: 'Brooklyn had no idea until he read about it online. It's possible Romeo and Cruz blocked them, which would make it appear as him no longer following the brothers
'He and Nicola certainly didn't unfollow them or block them — they're as confused as anyone else.

'The first they heard about it was when it was being reported on.'
Shortly after Brooklyn learned of his brothers' snub, Romeo reposted Justin Bieber's new song Walking Away on his Instagram stories with the caption: 'Yup.'

A day earlier Brooklyn posted a photo of him, Nicola and sister Harper for the latter's 14th birthday.
Those close to Brooklyn denied this was partly meant as an olive branch to his parents. One friend said: 'There is too much water under the bridge.'

Brooklyn had publicly snubbed Victoria on Mother's Day this March, and failed to attend any of David's 50th birthday celebrations in May.
Brooklyn's pal insisted: 'Just because he and Nicola love Harper and want to show their affection, it doesn't mean they're trying to make amends with the family.'
A separate source said: 'Brooklyn was always very close to Romeo and Cruz. They'd stay in touch even as they grew up and started following different career paths and travelling.
'It has been very difficult for David and Victoria to watch their sons grow apart as family means everything to them.'
'Low blow'
The Sun understands that incorrect allegations regarding Brooklyn and Romeo's ex-girlfriend Kim Turnbull have caused issues.
Brooklyn was rumoured to have previously dated Kim as a teenager.
This led to speculation that Nicola did not want him spending time with Romeo when he was with Kim. This was denied by all sides.
Last month Kim released a statement saying: 'I've avoided speaking on this topic to prevent adding fuel to the fire, however it's come to a point where I feel the need to address it so I can move on.
'I have never been romantically involved in any capacity at any point with the person in question.'

Romeo and DJ Kim split shortly before she posted the statement.
Those close to the Beckhams say Brooklyn has not seen or spoken to his family in months.
He flew to London in May to shoot a new campaign with Nicola for clothing brand Moncler.
But he failed to inform his family despite being ten minutes from their Holland Park home.
David and Victoria will always support Brooklyn if and when he needs it

People close to Brooklyn insisted his schedule did not allow for a meeting. But it is understood David and Victoria were saddened not to have heard from their son.
At the time, a source close to the family said: 'It feels like Brooklyn has cut out the entire family.
"Not to contact them when he was in London felt like a low blow.' Brooklyn and Nicola, who wed in 2022, have bought a £10.5million home in the States.
Close pals claimed David and Victoria were 'tight' and had not helped out financially.
But those close to the Beckhams claimed this was 'nonsense,' adding: 'David and Victoria will always support Brooklyn if and when he needs it.'
In May we told how Brooklyn and Nicola dined with Prince Harry and Meghan at their Montecito home — then reportedly hired the same crisis lawyer.
A source added of the rift: 'It's all been incredibly painful.
'David and Victoria worship the ground Brooklyn walks on and will always be there for him.'

Hot weather mistakes that could land you with a £5,000 fine – including BBQ rule and outdoor drinking
Scroll for six summer slip-ups that could cost you BEAT THE HEAT Hot weather mistakes that could land you with a £5,000 fine – including BBQ rule and outdoor drinking Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) BRITS are flocking to the top summer spots as temperatures reach a whopping 34C, but there are some hot weather mistakes that could land you a £5,000 fine. Before setting up your BBQ or cracking open some cans, make sure you're aware of the rules before spending your summer budget on park penalties. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 BBQ fans have been warned to check park regulations Credit: Getty 3 As temperatures soar to 34C, some activities, like public drinking, could land you a fine Credit: Getty 3 Some parks slap sunseekers £100 for using a disposable BBQ Credit: Getty Katy Phillips, money-saving expert at Idealo, said: "Before you pack your basket and head out, make sure you're familiar with the rules of the park you're visiting. "Many public parks have their own restrictions, especially when it comes to music, barbecues, and alcohol. "Checking ahead of time can save you the hassle and money." Idealo has revealed six simple slip-ups that could leave you out of pocket by thousands this July. Blasting your speaker - £5,000 Despite wanting to show your pals the songs of the summer, it might be best to leave until you get home. Some parks implement an eye-watering fine of £5,000 for park users playing loud music. London's Royal Parks, for example, have a strict ban on amplified music, even at low volumes, deeming it a public nuisance. To check the rules for your local park, visit Littering - £400 No one likes a litterbug - and neither does your wallet, as leaving rubbish in parks can land you a hefty fine. It's important to always take home your empty food packets, BBQ equipment and empty bottles from the park. Six items every UK driver should remove from cars this weekend Leaving it behind not only harms wildlife but it could cost you up to £400. Feeding the wildlife - £150 Feeding ducks and squirrels seems like a wholesome activity but unfortunately it can be harmful. In many parks it can count as littering and one unlucky Londoner got fined £150 for tossing food to squirrels. Using disposable barbecues - £100 Nothing says summer like sausages sizzling on a barbecue unless you're in the wrong spot. How to stay safe in hot weather THE UK Health Security Agency advises you follow these tips to reduce your risk of dehydration, heat exhaustion and heatstroke: Keep out of the sun at the hottest time of the day, between 11am and 3pm If you are going to do a physical activity like exercising or walking the dog, plan to do these during times of the day when it is cooler such as the morning or evening Keep your home cool by closing windows and curtains in rooms that face the sun If you go outside, cover up with light clothing, a hat and sunglasses and slather on sun cream Drink plenty of fluids but limit booze Know the symptoms of heat exhaustion and heatstroke and what to do if you or someone else has them Check on family, friends and neighbours who may be at higher risk of becoming unwell, and if you are at higher risk, ask them to do the same for you Many councils, including Brighton & Hove, have banned disposable BBQs entirely in parks and on beaches due to fire risks and damage to the grass. Make sure to check the regulations of the park before lighting up your disposable dinner as using them in prohibited areas can lead to a £100 fixed penalty. Drinking alcohol in restricted areas - £100 A cold cider in the sun might sound harmless, but in areas with a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO), you can't legally drink in public spaces. Places like Hammersmith & Fulham have borough-wide PSPOs, which means cracking open a tinny on the grass could lead to a £100 fine. Officers have the power to confiscate your booze on the spot so make sure to check if the park or beach you're at is a no-drinking zone. Dog fines - £80 Your dog might love to run free, but some places, like children's playgrounds, nature reserves, or certain beaches, have strict rules about keeping pets on a lead. If you ignore them, you could be slapped with an £80 fine. Even friendly pooches can scare wildlife or small children, so councils take these rules seriously.

Bruno Tonioli 'leaving Britain's Got Talent', reports say
He missed some episodes in the latest series of the show and was replaced by guest judge KSI. With his exit rumoured to be coming, here's who is lined up to be the new judge, and who fans want to see. Last series was not short of scares, and this lot certainly kept us in suspense with their danger-filled auditions! Check out our most dangerous acts from #BGT Series 18: Do not try these acts at home! — BGT (@BGT) July 11, 2025 Bruno Tonioli 'leaving Britain's Got Talent' An insider told The Sun that Tonioli would not be able to film the show due to prior commitments in the US for Dancing with the Stars. They said: "The filming schedule in 2024 meant that Bruno could get away with not being present for filming one week of auditions. 'But it would be virtually impossible for him to miss two weeks, because in the final edit, that equates to half the episodes in the new three-month run of BGT, which will air from February of 2026. 'There is absolutely no ill feeling about the situation, it's simply down to changes in the schedule making it incredibly difficult to remain as a full-time judge. 'The only hope is if his long-time friend and fellow panellist Simon Cowell steps in to make it clear that he has to be a part of the show, no matter how difficult it proves to be.' Who will replace Bruno Tonioli on Britain's Got Talent? According to the report from the publisher, the frontrunners are KSI and Alan Carr. KSI, being the guest judge on the last series, could make for an obvious choice, with many enjoying his brief appearances on the show. Alan was one of the previous favourites to replace former judge David Walliams before Tonioli was chosen. Reacting to the news online, fans of the show have had their say on who they would like to fill the soon-to-be-vacant judging chair. One said: "Alan Carr would be the right choice." Another said: "I beg BGT bring in Alan Carr. KSI didn't work, I might actually watch this abysmal show if Alan Carr was on it." "Alan Carr every single day," said a third. Some, however, backed internet personality KSI to take on the role fully. Recommended reading: "No KSI no party," one joked. A second said: "Alan Carr would be good but I've gotta go with my guy KSI to be the next judge." Other names that were thrown in the hat by fans included Harry Hill, Sam Thompson or Pete Wicks, or bringing back David Walliams.
