The Beckhams Allegedly Stepped In to Stop Brooklyn's Ex Hana Cross From Doing a Tell-All

She wanted to talk, but the Beckhams wanted her to be quiet.

Hana Cross had two offers on the table to do a tell-all about her nine months with Brooklyn Beckham. According to a Daily Mail source, the pressure started coming in, and she backed off.

'She had some heavy messages from the Brooklyn side warning her about being indiscreet, so she thought better of it,' the insider claimed.

All of this comes as Brooklyn's relationship with his parents has gone completely pear-shaped. His six-part Instagram statement in January accused David and Victoria of 'controlling the narrative'. He says he is done with the family that prioritises the brand more than anything.

Security Had to Step in at Cannes

Cross and Brooklyn went public at the British Fashion Awards afterparty in December 2018. A few weeks on, she was ringing in the new year at the family's Cotswolds estate. Liv Tyler was there. It looked like she was properly in with the Beckhams, but that did not last long.

The rows started kicking off everywhere. Coachella. A Yungblud gig in Camden. Some shopping trip in LA that ended with Cross in tears outside. Cannes appeared to be the final nail in the coffin.

The Sun reported that security guards physically had to separate Cross and Brooklyn during a screaming match at Hotel Martinez in May 2019. David and Victoria were called in to manage the situation.

Sources at the time called the whole thing 'toxic'. Brooklyn 'gets jealous easily', one said. Cross, meanwhile, was struggling with 'all that comes with dating a Beckham'.

Brooklyn Refused to Make Her Sign an NDA

The Beckham machine runs on discretion. Anyone who gets close to the family (employees, associates, the lot) is typically asked to sign a non-disclosure agreement. It is just how they operate. Victoria and David allegedly wanted Cross to sign one, too, Grazia reported at the time, but Brooklyn made an exception with her.

Eventually, the couple split that August. Wimbledon was their last public outing together. The Beckhams were reportedly 'delighted' when it ended.

'The Black Sheep of the Family'

So what would Cross have actually said? According to the Daily Mail source, she was going to reveal that Brooklyn had been at odds with his parents even back then.

'He was the black sheep of the family, and that would have been her story,' the insider alleged. 'There were problems with him and the family even back then.'

Whatever those problems were, they have only gotten worse since. Brooklyn married Nicola Peltz in April 2022 at her family's £81 million ($103 million) Palm Beach estate. The rumours about friction with Victoria started almost straight away. Why did Nicola not wear a Victoria Beckham dress?

Brooklyn's January statement, however, went further than anyone expected. He accused his parents of 'endlessly trying to ruin my relationship since before my wedding' and claimed Victoria 'danced inappropriately' on him during what was meant to be his first dance with Nicola. He now only speaks to them through lawyers.

Cross has kept quiet through all of it. She was spotted with Scott Disick at Nobu back in late 2021. She put out a breakup song that fans reckoned was about Brooklyn, but she never confirmed anything.

Neither she nor the Beckhams has commented on the tell-all claims.
