Brooklyn Beckham speaks about family problems – level 1
23-01-2026 07:00
Brooklyn Beckham writes a long post online about problems with his parents. He says that they hurt him and his wife. He says they care more about fame than family. He feels sad and angry. He wants people to know his story.
He says that his mother changes plans at the wedding. He says that she stops making his wife’s dress very late. His wife must find another dress fast. These things hurt him and his wife.
David Beckham speaks in front of people the next day, but the family says nothing about the post. Brooklyn says that he does not want to fix the family problem now. He feels calmer when he is away from them.
Difficult words: fame (when many people know you), wedding (a special day when two people marry), fix (to make something right again).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
What wedding detail did his mother change at the last minute, causing him and his wife distress?
