Beckhams Narrowly Miss Each Other at Beverly Hills Hotel

0:00On this March 17th, here's what's making entertainment headlines. David Beckham and his son, Brooklyn, came within hours of crossing paths at the famous Beverly Hills Hotel this week, despite their painful family. As a stranger, the former soccer star checked in late Sunday after a skiing trip with his middle son, Romeo, and they had two narrow misses on Monday. Early that morning, the 50-year-old David, left for a commercial shoot in nearby Santa Monica for Lays' crisps, tied to the upcoming World Cup. Meanwhile, 27-year-old Brooklyn arrived a bit later for breakfast and a relaxed pool day, fresh from partying at Godfather Elton Johns, Oscars' viewing event. By 3pm, Brooklyn was sunbathing poolside, just three hours before David returned at 6pm for dinner at the Polo Lounge with friends. Hotel insiders say the gap might have been even smaller, but neither Father nor Son knew the other was there. Friends of the family call it desperately sad, with no direct contact for months.

1:00Brooklyn and his wife, Nikola, now route everything through lawyers. Since snubbing David's 50th birthday last May, they worry a run-in would have crushed David and sparked more awkwardness. Brooklyn has been a frequent hotel guest lately, close to his and Nikola's luxury villa nearby. The Beckham's just won reconciliation, but for now, these close calls highlight how far apart they remain. The Daily News Now is powered by a sponsor, link in the description.
