Brooklyn Beckham has reportedly taken home a handsome payout following his DoorDash advert for the 2026 World Cup.

The eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham has seemingly continued the feud with his family, following his bombshell statement about them in January this year.

He stated at the time: "I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled, I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life."

While there have been some hints towards the subject by the superstar parents, they are yet to officially acknowledge their son's decision to leave the family behind.

So naturally, when Brooklyn featured in an advert which appeared as an apparent dig towards his family, people online got chatting.

To rub salt in the wounds of Beckham family fans, the chef and photographer has earned a pretty seven-figure sum for his involvement in the advert for DoorDash.

How much did Brooklyn Beckham earn from the World Cup advert?

Page Six reports that Brooklyn earned at least $1 million for his advert for DoorDash, where it looks like he pokes fun at his family fued.

The payday likely makes all the online criticism that bit easier, as several social media users were left angry by the ad, which implied that he was watching the World Cup at home to avoid his family while giving away his tickets.

In the commercial, he can be heard saying: “You’re probably wondering why I’m watching the Fifa World Cup 2026 from home. It’s not like I don’t have tickets,

“Um, it’s because … it’s a long story.”

While a teaser for Brooklyn's ad hit the airways earlier first, a full ad would air soon after.

This happened after Brooklyn's younger sister Harper, tried to reunite with him at his LA home, where he lives with his wife Nicola Peltz.

A source close to the family told the publication: “To do an ad based on estrangement from family as if it’s a joke, when his family is devastated and his sister and grandparents are inconsolable, is terrible…

“DoorDash must be reconsidering this campaign, for sure.”

But this wasn't the case, as DoorDash released the full advert, showing the former academy soccer player handing his tickets to a delivery driver, saying: “These can go to someone else, put them somewhere fun.”

Customers can follow clued from DoorDash to find these tickets, though a source close to Brooklyn said of the add that it was "a little cheesy."

They did also highlight: “Anything that makes him money is good - it shows that his brand is there and flourishing.”

But it is said that the Beckhams found it to be hypocritical.

Brooklyn previously addressed the feyd

In January, Brooklyn publicly spoke about the reported family tensions after months of speculation.

"I have been silent for years and have made every attempt to keep these matters private," he said.

"Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed.

"I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled, I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life."

In the months since, David and Victoria have remained silent on the situation.
