DAVID BECKHAM has fought back tears over being a proud dad in a resurfaced clip amid his ongoing feud with his son Brooklyn.
The aspiring chef released a bombshell statement on Monday as he slammed his parents for “controlling” him and said he has no intention of reconciling with them.
In his Netflix documentary series BECKHAM, which released in October 2023, David opened up about how proud he is of his four children.
As he fought back tears, he expressed: “They could be little s**ts but they’re not and that’s why I say I’m so proud of my children.
“And I’m so in awe of my children, the way they’ve turned out,” the proud dad admitted while speaking directly to camera.
In scenes shown in the episode in question, David and his eldest son were seen cooking up a storm in the kitchen.

Aside from Brooklyn, David and Victoria are also parents to Romeo, Cruz and Harper.
The 26-year-old finally broke his silence after months of reports about the family feud.
He expressed: “I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private.
“Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.
“For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family.
“The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.
“Recently, I have seen with my own eyes the lengths that they’ll go through to place countless lies in the media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade.
“But I believe the truth always comes out.
“My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped.”
He went on to accuse his mum of trying to sabotage his wedding with Nicola Peltz by allegedly taking over his first dance and cancelling making the wedding dress at the eleventh hour.
David spoke out for the first time today as he admitted his children had “made mistakes” on social media.
Speaking live on CNBC’s financial program Squawk Box, Becks said: “I have always spoken about social media and the power of social media . . . For the good and for the bad.
“What kids can access these days, it can be dangerous.
“But what I have found personally, especially with my kids as well, use it for the right reasons.
“I’ve been able to use my platform for my following, for UNICEF.
“And it has been the biggest tool to make people aware of what’s going on around the world for children.
“And I have tried to do the same with my children, to educate them.
“They make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes. That is how they learn. That is what I try to teach my kids.”
The former Manchester United star added: “You sometimes have to let them make those mistakes as well.”
