Brooklyn Beckham's ex-girlfriend claims 'Victoria didn't like me' as she speaks out after statement

First loves, high stakes and family whispers – there’s always a twist when you’re in the Beckham world. Singer Tallia Storm lets the truth slip about her teenage dating days with Brooklyn Beckham, revealing what really happened when Victoria Beckham was part of the picture. What was it like mixing school crushes and superstar parents ? Here’s what Tallia has to say, in her own words and with her unique perspective.

How did it really feel dating a Beckham as a teen ?

It might sound like a dream, but Tallia Storm says her relationship with Brooklyn wasn’t as wild as you might think. The two first started seeing each other when they were both just 16, right at the start of her pop career. She describes it as innocent and ordinary, but with a big difference – his parents were two of the most famous people in the world.

Back then, every small gesture came with extra scrutiny.

“Victoria sent security to check out the concert venue because Brooklyn was coming to see me sing,” Tallia recalls.

That’s how she got her first taste of celebrity life and the press attention that followed every step. Even the fun stuff, like being invited to sit next to Brooklyn at Eva Longoria’s Global Gift Gala, could quickly turn sour. As Tallia puts it, Victoria asked Brooklyn to cancel on her at the last moment – and that’s when she started to feel the pressure of being seen as “fame-hungry.”

Being the girlfriend of a “famous son”: an almost impossible role

Dating the child of global celebrities comes with a unique set of expectations — and pressures. When the parents are household names, every relationship is scrutinised, interpreted and often judged through the lens of fame, ambition and image control. For young partners, especially teenagers, this can turn an ordinary romance into a high-stakes public performance.

In such relationships, intentions are rarely taken at face value. Affection can quickly be reframed as opportunism, and normal teenage emotions are amplified by media narratives. Former partners of celebrity children have often spoken about the difficulty of being perceived as “authentic” when the family name alone attracts headlines and speculation.

The imbalance is particularly strong at a young age. While the famous family is protected by wealth, experience and professional teams, the outsider often has no buffer against rumours or public judgement. Even small misunderstandings can spiral into lasting labels — something that can follow a person long after the relationship itself has ended.

This dynamic also explains why many relationships involving celebrity offspring struggle to survive. The pressure does not only come from the media, but from the expectations attached to the family brand. For those dating a “son of” or “daughter of” fame, staying invisible can sometimes feel just as impossible as being accepted.

Victoria Beckham’s influence and public image pressures

There’s always speculation about the power Victoria holds in the Beckham family. Tallia firmly believes she was never favoured. “Victoria didn’t like me,” she claims – a memory that lingers even now. Tallia says she never tried to benefit financially from their relationship and insists her teenage romance was pure and “normal” beneath all the glitz.

At the time, Brooklyn seemed untouched by the celebrity world, according to Tallia – down-to-earth and unfazed, even with the cameras pointed at his every move. But she gets how heavy the pressure must have been for him.

“Growing up in the limelight was not easy. The pressure was immense and constant,” she admits.

Those lessons have shaped how she views family and public life today.

Tallia recalls that the Beckhams appeared “like a normal and loving family” when she was welcomed into their circle, without anyone acting like divas or scenes of drama. She brushes aside years of gossip:

“There was honestly nothing diva-ish or outrageous – they were genuinely so nice.”

The impact of Brooklyn’s bombshell statements and Tallia’s reaction

Recently, Brooklyn has been making headlines for being incredibly open about tensions within the Beckham family, as well as for standing by his wife Nicola Peltz. Tallia hasn’t held back sharing her opinion on all this.

“I am so proud of him and support him fully. He’s been through a lot. It takes courage to set the record straight and defend yourself – especially against your own family.”

About his marriage to Nicola, Tallia is all encouragement :

“She seems like his soulmate, and I’m so glad he’s defending her publicly. Good for him !”

But how does she see the Beckham family dynamic now ? For Tallia, the revelations mark a definitive break :

“I don’t think there’s any going back now. The public image of the perfect family had a negative effect behind the scenes.”

Despite the rift, she hopes the couple can move on, far from the media and family stress :

“I hope Brooklyn and Nicola can end up in a happy place of their own.”

Tallia and Brooklyn don’t have regular contact these days, but it’s always friendly if they bump into each other at an event. Nothing but respect there.

What does the future hold for the Beckhams ?

Is it possible to patch things up when the world is watching your every move ? After all that’s been said, Tallia isn’t so sure. She once believed the Beckham family could overcome anything, but now she doubts there’s a path back to unity. The weight of public opinion, mixed with real personal strain, is a lot for anyone to take, no matter how famous the surname.

Brooklyn Beckham’s story isn’t finished yet – and neither is the saga of one of Britain’s most talked-about families. Will peace ever return, or are the divides unbridgeable ? Only time will tell.
