As Brooklyn Beckham’s bombshell assertion about his estranged household continues to trigger shockwaves, considered one of his well-known ex-girlfriends, singer Tallia Storm, tells the Mirror she is most positively ‘Crew Brooklyn’.

Recalling their time collectively as teenagers, circa 2014, Tallia known as Brooklyn her ‘past love’, she says: “We have been simply 16. I used to be the primary woman that had ever been noticed with Brooklyn.”

At round this time, she was doing a music gig at Hanover Sq. within the capital, and was invited to Brooklyn – however what occurred subsequent left her surprised.

“Victoria despatched a safety crew through the day to verify the venue”, she tells us. “I assumed it’s not that deep, however er, OK! Once we went to the gig that evening, Brooklyn got here in with my sister as I used to be sound-checking – after which once we left together with his safety, there have been like 20 paparazzi exterior.”

She provides: “It was my first expertise of something like this, it was wild. I received such a fright – I didn’t need Brooklyn to suppose I’d known as the paps!”

On one other event, Tallia claims she was meant to attend the International Present Gala with Brooklyn, hosted by Determined Housewives star Eva Longoria – Victoria’s long-time pal who she knew, having beforehand been launched to her by the previous Spice Woman. However issues didn’t fairly work out as deliberate.

She explains: “I used to be meant to take a seat subsequent to Brooklyn, we have been all tremendous excited – after which he messaged me on the evening itself, after I was already inside, saying, my mum received’t let me come, I’m sorry. And that was that. Clearly, Victoria didn’t like me or no matter.

“Each time I’ve seen him, years on, he’s so cool, so pretty, no huge deal. However that’s the instance of a PR storm that was simply so… pointless.”

And Tallia maintains the expertise has positively had an impact on her. “It’s at all times made me appear like I used to be some type of fame-hungry wannabe. It’s like a little bit of a sticky internet and never one thing I ever need to interact in.”

She provides: “I’ve by no means accepted a penny from anybody wanting to speak about Brooklyn. However on the finish of the day, I believe the sunshine at all times shines by way of – and generally you’ve received to let life run its course.”

“I wasn’t ‘Tallia Storm’ after I met Brooklyn, I used to be a lady found by Elton John – which I believe Victoria appreciated, she felt I had a little bit of ‘one thing’ about me. However I used to be nonetheless at school, we have been simply children – we had a mutual crush on one another.

“Once we began hanging out, David would drop him off at my home in London, I might go to theirs – I’ve met Victoria and actually, it was simply all pretty.”

Of Brooklyn’s explosive assertion, Tallia confesses: “My first thought was, good for him. Individuals have all heard 1,000,000 tales over time, and I simply suppose, God bless Brooklyn for simply popping out and sticking up for himself.

“I believe he’s simply had sufficient. I’m 100% Crew Brooklyn. I believe what that boy has gone by way of over all these years, in that Beckham ‘internet’, as I name it, is lots. It’s lots on any individual. So, good on him, saying, ‘sufficient is sufficient’. That is him taking again his energy.”

As for his spouse Nicola Peltz, whom Brooklyn acknowledged fiercely in his assertion he had by no means been ‘managed’ by, she says, “I’ve by no means met her personally, however I do suppose Nicola is Brooklyn’s soulmate. And I do suppose they’re just a little dream crew. Good for him, for taking a stand. I’m happy with him. It takes lots to come back out and say what he says.”

Citing her personal brothers, the Scottish star – whose mum is pr guru and entrepreneur Tessa Hartman CBE, provides, “Particularly with boys, they have a tendency to gravitate to the spouse – glad spouse, glad life. I don’t know if Victoria was ever selecting on Nicola or not, however that’s a harmful path to go down.”

As she tells us, she feels for Brooklyn, rising up as part of one of many world’s most well-known households. “That boy hasn’t had a simple run. And he is been closely scrutinised no matter he does, from photographing elephants to cooking – he can’t catch a break. I take my hat off to him, and I hope he and Nicola really feel a little bit of weight has been taken off their shoulders, now.”

Throughout their time collectively, Tallia says the Brooklyn she knew wasn’t ‘remotely bothered’ about fame. “He was simply not that man. He was simply cool. We have been simply children having enjoyable. Victoria calling the press to my gig simply made it one thing it didn’t must be.”

“I do not get pleasure from wherever close to the extent of fame as Brooklyn, however I do know that no matter I’ve carried out since I get requested continuously about Brooklyn – so think about him?! I’ve usually thought of what he goes by way of.”

As for Brooklyn’s feedback that his mom had danced ‘inappropriately’ at his wedding ceremony, it’s not one thing she recognises however admits: “I do know nothing about any of that. All I recall is Victoria at all times being very chatty and bubbly – she would at all times deliver huge power.”

The primary time she met the designer, she says: “I’ll always remember it, she was sporting a pair of stripy pyjamas – I simply thought, how iconic. I solely went to their Holland Park house a few occasions, however they simply appeared like a traditional, loving household. All very easy-going. I by no means noticed any loopy, diva moments.”

Although they haven’t precisely stayed in contact and transfer in ‘completely completely different circles’ these days, Tallia has ran into Brooklyn at occasions over time and so they’ll at all times catch up – however says she will not be reaching out to him following his explosive submit.

Heading quickly to the Grammy Awards within the US as one of many star-studded music occasion’s crimson carpet presenters, the previous Capital Breakfast host hopes to see her ex and his spouse there. “If I see them, we’ll positively have a chat”.

Final summer season, Tallia stated she believed the Beckhams ‘fall out and make up’ like every other household, however do ‘love one another’. Her opinion on that, sadly, has now modified completely.

“I like to stay optimistic – I’ve an enormous household and we’re very shut, I’d hate to fall out with them. I battle with my household on a regular basis, however we at all times make up. As my mum at all times says, if your loved ones isn’t glad, what’s all of it for – how a lot fame, how a lot cash is sufficient?

“Perhaps that’s the Beckhams’ downside. They don’t permit for any regular ups and downs. Perhaps that picture-perfect life has taken a toll. I simply don’t know. However sadly, I don’t suppose there’s any going again…”
