Brooklyn Beckham’s ex-girlfriend Hana Cross revealed she had her own issues with the Beckham family while dating the chef seven years ago.
During an interview with Hello! Magazine published on Sunday, the model spoke about Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz’s ongoing feud with his family.
“My time with the family caused me a lot of anxiety, in all honesty,” Cross divulged. “There were a lot of warning signs and things that happened during the relationship that, in hindsight, should have made me think and maybe end the relationship or walk away from it a lot sooner than I did.”
Cross — who dated Brooklyn for nine months before their 2019 breakup — told the outlet that she doesn’t look back at their relationship “as a fond time” as being in the Beckham orbit came with a lot of pressure.
“I was only 20, 21 when we dated, and I had just started modeling, and I came from living on a farm to moving to London and being thrown into a relationship like that. It’s hard to know what’s best to do in that situation,” she explained.
Cross has since done her best to “move on” from that chapter in her life, but has been roped back into it since Brooklyn’s feud with his parents came to a head in January.
“With the constant press that comes out, and with my name always being linked back into it, it’s hard not to be mentally drawn back into that part of my life, especially with all this feud stuff coming out,” Cross, now 28, explained.

Brooklyn launched an astonishing attack on parents David and Victoria on Jan. 19 via his Instagram Stories, which included accusing his mother of “inappropriately” dancing on him at his 2022 wedding to Peltz.
Although Cross found the posts “shocking” at first, she admitted that they “summed up a lot of [her] own experiences as well and the way that their family as a brand does act.”
Page Six has reached out to reps for Victoria and David for comment.
But Brooklyn’s other ex-girlfriend, Lexi Wood, had a much different experience with the Beckhams, whom she called the “coolest family.”
The “Summer House” alum gave some insight into how the famous family works behind-the-scenes, sharing that they “travel together, live together” and “they do so much together.”
She added, “It was just so nice being around them.”
Brooklyn’s bitter feud with his family seemingly stems from his relationship with Peltz — as the actress and the former Spice Girls member reportedly never got along.
“They can’t stand each other and don’t talk,” a source close to the family told Page Six in August 2022, noting that trouble was already “brewing” before Peltz and Brooklyn’s lavish nuptials.
“The build-up to the wedding was horrendous,” they added.
Despite Victoria and David’s desperate attempts to reconcile with their eldest son, Brooklyn appears to stand strongly with his wife, refusing any reunion.
