Cruz Beckham mocked for saying ‘Jesus was also a nepo baby’

Budding musician Cruz Beckham reportedly branded Jesus Christ a fellow nepo baby as he teased his music venture to fans on Christmas Day.

The son of David and Victoria Beckham is said to have hit back at social media critics accusing him of benefiting from his parents’ wealth and privilege by declaring: “Jesus is also a nepo baby.”

Cruz’s alleged claim about the son of God came as he released a teaser video for his new song For Ya Love across his social media channels on Christmas Day. While some comment positively with quips like “not bad”, others reportedly took aim at the 19-year-old.

According to the MailOnline, one social media user taunted Cruz saying: “Bet he had mega money and training.” Cruz is said to have replied: “Not at all. Just a guitar.” According to the publication, Cruz came out with the comment about Jesus before deleting his post 12 hours later on Boxing Day. The Mirror has approached representatives for Cruz for comment.

Cruz isnt the only Beckham offspring to be labelled a nepo baby. Big brother Brooklyn Beckham has been the target of some online banter over the years thanks to the eldest Beckham child struggling to stick at one career aspiration or ever work a proper full-time job.

The 25-year-old was branded ‘Nepo Spice’ in January 2023 as he seemingly soft-launched another career venture as he discussed his love of fashion for a feature in Vogue alongside his wife, Nicola Peltz. The married couple invited fans to peep into their wardrobe, showcasing their sartorial preferences.

Throughout the video clip shared by Vogue on TikTok Brooklyn recommends hunting for top-notch vintage denim in his tycoon father-in-law’s closet and expresses that a fitted shirt, knee-high boots, and matrix-inspired trench coat are what he loves most on Bates Motel actress Nicola.
