Beckham Love Glow: Victoria and David's Romantic Italian Lunch

Victoria Beckham and her husband David couldn't keep their hands off each other during a recent family lunch with their children in Nerano, Italy , last week

SPICE UP YOUR LIFE! VICTORIA AND DAVID BECKHAM'S EUROPEAN HOLIDAY HEATS UP WITH ROMANTIC MOMENTS, BUT FAMILY FEUD SIMMERS IN THE BACKGROUND

The Beckham family is making headlines once again, and this time it's not just about their A-list status or high-end vacations. The power couple, Victoria and David Beckham, are enjoying a romantic getaway in Italy with their kids, but the European summer holiday has been marred by a bitter family feud.

According to sources close to the family, Victoria and David couldn't keep their hands off each other during a recent lunch at Lo Scoglio restaurant in Nerano, Italy. The fashion designer, 51, and her former professional footballer husband, 50, were spotted locking lips and wrapping their arms around each other as they dined al fresco, surrounded by their kids. This is not the first time the couple has been caught looking loved-up on the trip - David was seen squeezing Victoria's bottom while aboard their yacht last week.

The Beckhams have been enjoying a luxurious European summer holiday, sailing from St Tropez to Italy in their £16million superyacht. The family dined at Lo Scoglio restaurant, which is one of their favorite spots and sits on the coast, offering breathtaking views. Victoria looked stunning in a black silk slip dress, wearing her brunette locks in soft waves for the lunchtime outing. Meanwhile, David wore a relaxed off-white short sleeved shirt and red trousers with a pair of sunglasses.

Their children, Romeo, 22, Harper, 14, and Cruz, 20, who brought his 29-year-old girlfriend Jackie Apostel along, were also spotted having a great time at the restaurant. Cruz cut a casual figure in a red T-shirt and shades, while his glamorous girlfriend looked typically chic in a cream slip dress and sunhat.

However, behind the scenes of their idyllic family vacation, the Beckhams are dealing with a very real family feud that has been simmering for months. Their eldest son Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, have reportedly not spoken to Victoria and David in weeks, and things took a turn for the worse when they failed to attend any of the events celebrating David's 50th birthday.

The family were first seen in St Tropez on their £16million superyacht before sailing across to Italy to continue their getaway,

The rift between Brooklyn and his parents began around that time, but it escalated after Brooklyn and Nicola recently hosted a vow renewal ceremony in the US without inviting any members of their family. Sources close to the Beckhams have revealed that Victoria and David are "devastated" by the situation and believe the rift between them is beyond repair.

It's not just about the wedding; the couple has also been accused of not acknowledging their parents' love and commitment in Brooklyn's speech at the ceremony. A source told The Mirror: "He spoke from the heart - and at the centre of his heart is Nicola who he loves very dearly, but also the Peltz family who have really stuck by his side."

The move has been seen as a slap in the face to Victoria and David, who feel that their son's loyalty lies with Nicola and her family. The tension between Brooklyn and his parents has reportedly left him "heartbroken" over the way his wife is being portrayed.

Nicola has been accused of "isolating" Brooklyn from not only his family but also his friends. According to sources, Brooklyn is not happy about how his wife is being treated by the media and is devastated by the portrayal of her as a "vixen and viper."

A source close to the couple told The Mirror: "It’s so rooted in misogyny that all of the heat for his parents not being invited is on Nicola. Everyone seems to forget that Brooklyn is an adult man and fully capable of speaking out. Nicola would have respected all that he chose."

As the Beckhams continue their European holiday, it's clear that family dynamics are still a work in progress. Will they be able to resolve their differences and move forward together? Only time will tell.

The couple, who tied the knot in 1999, were joined by their children Romeo, 22, Harper, 14, and Cruz, 20, who brought also his 29-year-old girlfriend Jackie Apostel

In related news, Richard E Grant was spotted at Lo Scoglio restaurant, where he reportedly went over to say hello to the Beckham family. The actor famously played the Spice Girls' manager Clifford in the 1997 film Spice World, which starred Victoria as Posh Spice.

The Beckhams have been trying to put on a united front despite their family feud, posting adoring holiday snaps and ignoring the simmering tensions between them and Brooklyn. However, it's clear that this is not just about a simple disagreement but a deep-seated issue that may take time to resolve.

As Victoria and David continue to enjoy their romantic getaway, one can't help but wonder what the future holds for this beloved celebrity family. Will they be able to put their differences aside and emerge stronger as a unit? Only time will tell.
