Brooklyn Beckham has paid tribute to his father-in-law, Nelson, after appearing to snub his own father, David.
Taking to his Instagram Stories on Wednesday, David and Victoria's eldest son, 26, uploaded a beaming snapshot that showed the hot sauce creator posing with his wife Nicola and her father Nelson.
Transformers actress Nicola, 30, had one arm placed around her father's shoulders, while Brooklyn stood behind with both hands resting on the back of Nelson's chair.
In his caption, he penned: "Happy birthday Nelson x we love you", followed by a red heart emoji.

Back in May, Brooklyn and Nicola were no-shows as David celebrated his birthday in the British capital with loved ones. Among those in attendance were David's wife, Victoria, their children Romeo, Cruz and Harper, and a medley of A-list pals including Tom Cruise, Eva Longoria and Gordon and Tana Ramsay.

Family 'tensions'
There have been rumours of a possible 'rift' within the Beckham family for several months now. Brooklyn and Nicola were noticeably absent from Victoria's Paris Fashion Week show, with the pair also missing a string of subsequent key family events, including the former Spice Girl's birthday festivities in Miami.

Alongside a clip of the pair riding a motorcycle, the budding chef penned: "My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you're the most amazing person I know xx me and you forever baby".
Meanwhile, during a recent interview with Glamour Germany, Brooklyn spoke about how he protects his relationship from the spotlight. "Ignore the noise. Keep your head down, work hard, be kind. People are always going to talk. What matters is that we're happy together," he said.
