Romeo Beckham's ex-girlfriend Kim Turnbull has seemingly broken her silence on the ongoing Beckham 'family feud', claiming that she never dated Brooklyn in her teenage years.
In a message shared to her Instagram Story on Monday, the DJ explained that while she'd avoided speaking out on the matter for a while, there came a point when she felt obliged to address the situation so that she could "move on."
Addressing her followers, she penned: "I've avoided speaking on this topic to prevent adding fuel to the fire, however it's come to a point where I feel the need to address it so I can move on.
"I will not continue to receive harassment or be embarrassed on the basis of lies, to fit a certain narrative. I have never been romantically involved in ANY capacity at ANY point with the person in question."

Earlier this year, there had been whisperings that the pair previously dated, and that Kim's subsequent relationship with Romeo had been a point of contention within the Beckham household, particularly between Romeo and Brooklyn.

Romeo's cryptic post
Hours after Kim broke her silence on social media, her ex-Romeo also shared a post in which he appeared to weigh in on the drama. Alongside a still from a black-and-white Audrey Hepburn film with the words "What the world needs is a return to sweetness and decency", Romeo wrote: "Be nice to people and don't tell unnecessary lies", followed by the kissing emoji.

Earlier this week, Brooklyn further added to speculation of a feud when he failed to acknowledge his father David in the wake of his knighthood. While fashion designer Victoria and sons Cruz and Romeo were quick to pen messages of congratulations, Brooklyn didn't share a public message of support.

"Love you [white heart emoji]" he noted in a caption, before tagging his eldest son.
Rumours of growing tensions first emerged earlier this year when Brooklyn and Transformers actress Nicola missed a string of key family events including Victoria's fashion show and David's birthday celebrations.
