Brooklyn Beckham shares warning from dad David over career change as he delves into rare family insight
Brooklyn Peltz Beckham has opened up about his new career venture and shared the warning he received from his father, David Beckham.
Over the years, Beckham has given his hand a go at many different career options to find his passion – away from his father’s footballing background.
The 26-year-old has now put his culinary venture on pause, and he decided to enter the world of motorsport.
Beckham’s latest passion was revealed after taking part in the Formula E’s Evo Sessions at the Miami International Autodrome.
The event sees 11 famous faces strapping into the lightning fast GEN3 Evo race ca, and left the star with a need for speed and wanting to turn the new hobby into a full-time job.
Whilst attending the event, he revealed he had been warned by his father about taking on the dangerous sport and the saucy reason why his wife Nicola Peltz Beckham was all for the new passion.

Speaking to The Mirror, Beckham admitted: “Obviously, my dad was just like, ‘just be careful’. But it’s something that me and my dad have definitely bonded over, over the years.
“You know, we’re both into cars, both into racing – he’s really excited, and just said: ‘Be careful. You be careful and have fun’.”
His wife had similar concerns but had a change of heart when she saw her husband ready to hit the track.
“[Nicola] was a little bit worried [about me doing this] but then she saw me in my race outfit and was like ‘You should do this as a job. You look really good’.
“She was a little bit worried. But after she saw me, after I got out of the car, she was like: ‘You look really sexy!’ So I might be changing careers,” he then joked.
The oldest son of David and wife Victoria Beckham joined the likes of football superstar Sergio Agüero, Harry Potter actor Tom Felton and car enthusiast Supercar Blondie.
Each star has been partnered with a Formula E team for their training and will be coached by a professional Formula E driver.
Beckham was beyond excited to be part of the event and the campaign and added to the same publication: “I’ve loved motorsport all my life, so when the opportunity came to be a part of Evo Sessions with Formula E, I jumped at the chance.
“I love it as a sport, but it’s an incredible opportunity to actually get behind the wheel and experience what it takes to compete at the top level of motorsport.
“The performance of the cars is insane, so I’m pleased I’ll be learning from the best in how to get the most out of them.”
Beckham kitted out his racing gear by personalising his pink helmet, which was covered in his hot sauce brand logo – Cloud23.
It also featured a print of the tattoo of his wife’s eyes, which he has on his neck, as well as June 23 – the date he proposed to her.
The seven is likely a nod to his father’s iconic Manchester United shirt, with the word “Buster” being above it – giving a nod to David’s sweet nickname for his eldest son.
The car itself featured Brooklyn’s married name of Peltz Beckham, which he and Nicola both took officially after tying the knot.
