Victoria's appearance at Bunton's birthday celebrations came amid an ongoing feud surrounding the Beckham family.
A rumored rift between Brooklyn, 26, and the rest of the Beckham family — which also includesRomeo Beckham,Cruz BeckhamandHarper Beckham— is believed to have begun in April 2022, when the rising chefmarriedNicola Peltz Beckham.
Brooklyn spoke out about his estrangement from his parents in abombshell-filled message on his Instagram Storieson Jan. 19, claiming that his parents have been "trying endlessly to ruin" his marriage to Nicola, 31. He also stated he does not want to "reconcile" with his family.
Other allegations leveled by Brooklyn against his famous family, he wrote in his recent social media post, included that his parents tried to"bribe" him into "signing away the rights" to his namebefore his and Nicola's wedding, and that mom Victoria"hijacked" his wedding dance with his wifeand "danced inappropriately on me."

A source close to the situation recentlytold PEOPLEthat Brooklyn and Nicola "never wanted any of this," stating, "They just wanted to quietly live their lives and be married, but after reading enough of the relentless inaccuracies about Nicola, a family member had had enough and wanted to set the record straight last year."
"And then the Beckhams had plenty of time to make amends and try and fix the damage, and instead they continued to push these false narratives, and Brooklyn and Nicola are just sick of it. Brooklyn knows his truth and was ready to speak it," the insider added.
However, a source with knowledge of the situation told PEOPLE earlier this year, "David and Victoria have repeatedly asked Brooklyn and Nicola to meetand talk in order to move forward."
"David loves his kids," continued the insider of Brooklyn, Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14. "They are his everything."
