Brooklyn Beckham slammed for 'dangerous' motorbike stunt without safety gear

Brooklyn Beckham has sparked concern after sharing a series of clips on Instagram that showed him cruising through the streets of Los Angeles on his Harley Davidson motorcycle.

The passion for bikes appears to run in the family, with dad David Beckham also known for his love of motorcycling. However, unlike his famously safety-conscious father, Brooklyn raised eyebrows by riding with his helmet visor up, while attempting to blow a kiss to wife Nicola Peltz with one hand off the handlebars.

In another clip, he appeared to film himself while motoring quickly through a residential neighbourhood, which many of his followers branded careless.

The stunt quickly triggered a wave of backlash online, with some fans calling his behaviour “reckless” and “dangerous”.

One follower warned: “He doesn't look like he's paying much attention to the road, should be looking ahead and not watching her and blowing a kiss. He's behaving very childish in the way he's not behaving responsible, I'm sure his parents would worry he's not taking life serious seeing this video.”

Another added: “He wants to keep his eye on the road instead of on the camera.” A third bluntly wrote: “How's about you concentrate on the bloody road rather than blow kisses at your wife. I mean, grow up. Seriously disappointed in you.”

Others criticised his choice of attire, with one user commenting: “If he had an ounce of common sense he would wear protective clothing, need I say more.”

However, not everyone was critical of his two-wheeled stunt. Some fans leapt to his defence, pointing out that he appeared to be riding at a relatively low speed.

One supporter argued: “All of you commenting to keep his eyes on the road. He is puttering down a street that doesn't seem busy. Looking over his shoulder with a car next to him looks pretty safe.”

Another echoed the sentiment, writing: “Why is everyone so critical in this world... Just let people live. Concentrate on your lives and make them better instead of wasting your time on others.”

The latest controversy comes against a backdrop of ongoing speculation about tensions between Brooklyn and his famous family.

His parents, David and Victoria Beckham, recently celebrated the former footballer’s 50th birthday with a luxury getaway along Italy’s Amalfi coast.

The pair were joined by their three youngest children, and appeared more united than ever despite the rumours that they have become estranged from their eldest son.

A source close to the couple told The Mirror : “Victoria and David are very good at pulling together when things around them are rubbish. She has learned how to navigate a lot of difficult situations since they’ve been married, and she knows exactly what support David needs.”

Meanwhile, Brooklyn and Nicola, 30, continue to build their life together in Los Angeles. The couple, who first married in 2022 at the Peltz family’s Florida estate, renewed their vows earlier this year at another Peltz property in New York.

No Beckham family members were included on the guest list, which only fuelled reports of a family rift.
