David Beckham was spotted living it up at the Lakers vs. Warriors game on Thursday, sitting courtside at the Crypto.com Arena alongside his son, Romeo Beckham. Despite ongoing family tension, the soccer legend was seen enjoying the high-profile LeBron James and Stephen Curry showdown, which attracted a star-studded crowd, including Floyd Mayweather, J-Hope, and Young Thug, among others.
The Beckham Family Feud: Romeo’s New Relationship Sparks Tension
The timing of David and Romeo’s courtside appearance raised eyebrows, especially with recent reports shedding light on a growing rift within the Beckham family. According to sources close to TMZ, the family is currently embroiled in a feud over Romeo’s new relationship with Kim Turnball, who is notably Brooklyn Beckham’s former girlfriend.
While David and his wife, Victoria Beckham, have been supportive of Romeo’s relationship, believing Kim has “good intentions,” Brooklyn and his wife, Nicola Peltz, have expressed concerns. They feel that Kim might be trying to insert herself into the family’s inner circle for ulterior motives, leading to a strained relationship between the brothers. In fact, things have escalated so much that Brooklyn reportedly refuses to be in the same room as Romeo and Kim, explaining his absence from the Lakers game, despite the rest of the Beckhams being in attendance.
A Star-Studded Game: Celebrities and Drama
While the Beckham family drama unfolded in the background, the Lakers vs. Warriors game was filled with other notable celebrities, adding to the excitement. Alongside David and Romeo Beckham, boxing legend Floyd Mayweather enjoyed the game without any drama, taking in the action in a relaxed mood. K-pop star J-Hope and rapper Young Thug were also spotted courtside, with Thugger making headlines earlier that day for his legal victory. A judge ruled that he did not violate probation due to controversial social media activity, clearing him of any legal trouble.
Thugger, who was dressed in an all-pink ensemble, was seen enjoying the game with his close friend, singer Mariah The Scientist, as they watched the thrilling matchup between LeBron James and Stephen Curry.
Lakers’ Tough Loss, but LeBron’s Milestone Performance
The game itself ended in disappointment for the home crowd as the Los Angeles Lakers lost 123-116 to the Golden State Warriors. Despite the loss, LeBron James delivered an impressive performance, scoring 33 points and leading the charge for the Lakers. In doing so, James reached a significant milestone, becoming the 10th player in Lakers history to score over 11,000 points for the franchise. His three-pointer in the second quarter helped him achieve this historic feat, adding another achievement to his already legendary career.
A Night to Remember for All: Drama, Celebs, and High-Level Basketball
Although the Lakers fell short of victory, the night was undoubtedly one to remember for the celebrities in attendance. With David and Romeo Beckham in the mix, alongside other stars like Floyd Mayweather and Young Thug, the event provided plenty of off-court drama to match the intensity of the game itself.
Despite the family tensions and the loss, the Beckhams and their fellow stars certainly enjoyed the electrifying atmosphere and the chance to witness two of basketball’s greatest players, LeBron James and Stephen Curry, go head-to-head.
