Former Playboy bunny and ex-girlfriend of one of the Beckham sons reveals family dynamics after rumors

Canadian model Lexi Wood, known for her appearance in Playboy and her appearance on the reality show Summer House , has publicly addressed her experience with the Beckham family , after rumors surfaced about internal tensions and "toxic" behavior by Victoria and David Beckham toward their children.

During an interview on the podcast "The Viall Files," hosted by Nick Viall, Wood— who dated Brooklyn Beckham in 2018— was asked about what it was like to join a high-profile family. Her response was clear: "They're families that are in the industry, they give each other advice, they work together wherever they can. They travel together, they live together, they do so much together. That mentality is that your family has your back, no matter what."

Wood's statements come amid alleged tensions within the Beckham family. According to US outlet TMZ , Brooklyn Beckham and his brother Romeo have not spoken since December 2024. The reason is believed to be Romeo's relationship with Kim Turnbull, a British DJ who was Brooklyn's former partner.

Brooklyn, currently married to actress Nicola Peltz, has reportedly decided to avoid family events attended by his brother's new girlfriend due to suspicions about his intentions. This situation has reportedly created a rift, which was evident with Brooklyn and Nicola's absence from David Beckham's birthday party.

Additionally, TMZ reported possible friction between Nicola Peltz and Victoria Beckham. According to sources cited by the outlet, Brooklyn's wife reportedly called her in-laws "narcissistic" and accused them of exerting a negative influence on her husband.

However, another source consulted by the British media outlet The Mirror defended the designer and former member of the Spice Girls, stating that Victoria deeply supports her son and daughter-in-law and even attended the premiere of a film starring Nicola in Los Angeles on crutches.

Amid the conflicting reports, Lexi Wood described the Beckhams as a "beautiful family" and particularly praised Victoria, calling her a "style icon." She also emphasized the closeness and support they provide for each other, downplaying any notion of structural conflict within the household.

Asked what it was like living with someone whose father has been hailed as a symbol of global appeal—referring to David Beckham, named “the sexiest man alive” by People magazine in 2015—the model responded humorously: “I feel like he was always just Brooklyn’s dad. I never thought anything of it. He was just her dad.”

Wood's words contrast with rumors about toxic dynamics and reaffirm an image of unity in one of the most high-profile families in global entertainment.
