Brooklyn Beckham shared a gushing birthday tribute to wife Nicola Peltz on Friday as he branded himself the 'luckiest man' despite his ongoing family feud. 

It came just hours after he copied his estranged dad David Beckham on motorbike ride after he asked his parents to contact him only via his lawyers.

Brushing off the drama, Brooklyn, 26, wished his 'beautiful girl' Nicola a happy 31st birthday, but notably turned the comments on his post off, in a bid to avoid questions from his followers. 

Sharing some photos from their wedding day to Instagram, he wrote: 'My dear Nicola x happy birthday beautiful girl x 

'I love you with all my heart and I am the luckiest man to call you my wife x 

'You are the funniest and most hard working person I know x can’t wait to stay young with you baby girl xx.'

Brooklyn's social media update came after he headed out on an identical Harley Davidson chopper to him.

On Thursday, the Daily Mail revealed that relations between the Beckhams broke down so completely last summer that at one point, Brooklyn asked his parents David and Victoria to contact him only via his lawyers.

It was also claimed that despite his feud with his parents, he has been in regular contact with four family members - both sets of his grandparents. 

However despite their apparent estrangement, Brooklyn channelled his dad as he was spotted cruising through West Hollywood on a motorbike. 

Brooklyn was driving a Harley Davidson Chopper motorcycle, featuring a fluffy seat, as he peered out from behind an orange-tinted visor.

The snaps were reminiscent of one of Brooklyn's dad David riding his $60,000 custom-built Harley-Davidson Knucklehead motorbike - which he was first seen on in 2013. 

Slight differences came in the form of the helmet, as Brooklyn wore a $850 Hedon helmet cruiser while David's was a bobber.

It was this week revealed that Brooklyn instructed his parents to only contact him through lawyers. 

Brooklyn said he didn't want his parents to contact him, or make public statements about him on social media.

There was no legal action between them – and no legal basis for the letter, which was simply a request.

But it followed what Brooklyn considered to be a series of 'nasty' briefings about his wife Nicola, including the suggestion that he was a 'hostage' being 'controlled' by his wife.

This week, publicists and friends on both sides refused to discuss the matter, still hoping that things will calm down and be resolved.

However one source said: 'David was told to speak to them via Schillings. That was the only way for them to communicate.'

The 'talk to my lawyers' move might explain why Brooklyn opted to block his parents – and siblings Romeo, Cruz and Harper – on social media just before Christmas.

The family had been viewing and liking his cooking posts. And it was felt this was contrary to Brooklyn's wish they would leave him and his wife alone.
