Cruz Beckham Shares Cryptic Instagram Post Backed by Mom Victoria Beckham’s “Not Such an Innocent Girl”
Cruz Beckham is dipping his toe into his family’s drama with cryptic social media posts.
The musician, 20, raised eyebrows with his latest Instagram Stories, which he shared on Thursday, Jan. 22, just days after his brother, Brooklyn Beckham made bombshell allegations about their parents, Victoria and David Beckham on Monday.
In his first post, Cruz shared a snapshot of him holding a can of Guaraná Antarctica, a popular Brazilian soft drink made from the Amazonian guaraná berry. While the beverage itself didn’t seemingly carry much significance to the narrative, his song choice that backed the post did.
“I’m Not Such an Innocent Girl,” the 2001 song released by Victoria, 51, was the track Cruz paired with the photo.
While there was no context added to the post, nor an explicit reason as to why he chose to use that song, fans of the singer are convinced its part of the social media-driven campaign to skyrocket the track to No. 1 on the charts. (Victoria is the only Spice Girl without a solo No. 1 single).
The song choice may also be in reference to the long-rumored feud between Victoria and Brooklyn’s wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, 31, which allegedly began over a wedding dress, then was fueled by an alleged “hijacked” first dance during the couple’s April 2022 ceremony and more, per Brooklyn’s recent claims on Instagram.

The second post Cruz shared on his Instagram Stories featured a photo of white piece of paper that read, “Loneliest Boy,” situated above additional text that read, “Verse 1.”
Similar to the previous story, Cruz didn’t add context to his post. However, the photo could be in reference to Brooklyn’s estrangement from his family.
“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,” Brooklyn, 26, wrote on Monday.

Cruz’s post also comes after months of strain between the extended Beckham family, including claims of being blocked on social media and the Peltz Beckhams being conspicuously absent from Beckham family holidays and events.
This wasn’t the first time Cruz made cryptic moves online, however. He recently liked an Instagram Reel that poked fun at Brooklyn’s allegation that their mom ruined his and Nicola’s first wedding dance and “humiliated” him in the process.
Shared by Olly Hume, the Instagram Reel hearted by Cruz featured the comedian pretending to be the DJ at Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding ceremony, where the alleged incident went down.

“And now for the song requested by the mother of the groom for her first dance with her son,” Hume, still in character, said in the video.
The song “Pony” by Ginuwine, which has become synonymous with strip clubs since its 1996 release and saw a massive resurgence in popularity after it was used in Magic Mike in 2012, played in the Instagram Reel.
“Interesting moves Victoria #beckham #beckhamwedding #news #joke #funny #comedy,” the comedian captioned the post, which was shared on Tuesday, Jan. 20.
