Brooklyn Beckham Mocked for 'Arugula' Gaffe
17 Apr
Summary
- Brooklyn Beckham used the American term 'arugula' for rocket.
- Fans criticized his cooking skills and choice of wording.
- Victoria Beckham discussed her children's appropriate behavior.

British-born Brooklyn Beckham faced online mockery for referring to 'rocket' as 'arugula' in a recent Instagram cooking video. Followers expressed frustration with his word choice, suggesting he forgets his British origins. Beyond the naming confusion, his salmon salad recipe, which prominently featured his own hot sauce, was also criticized as 'basic' and lacking skill.
This event occurs as the Beckham family navigates public attention and reported estrangement. Victoria Beckham recently emphasized the importance of her children behaving 'appropriately,' in comments that some interpret as relating to Brooklyn's situation. She also touched upon the challenges of raising children in the public eye.
The broader family dynamic is highlighted by Romeo Beckham's public birthday tribute to his mother, while Cruz's girlfriend also shared a celebratory post. This follows a period of reported distance between Brooklyn and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, who have allegedly not spoken to him since May of the previous year.
