Cruz Beckham has said he will not be making fans fork out to meet him during his upcoming tour after many venues sold out within a day of tickets going on sale.

The youngest son of David and Victoria, 20, and his band The Breakers will be touring the UK later this year, as well as stops in Paris, Amsterdam and Berlin, with concert-goers having the chance to catch up with the frontman for free.

While other musicians charge a hefty price, Cruz insisted he would not be not be doing the same and 'could not wait to hang' out with fans after his shows.  

One Instagram follower asked: 'So meet and greets are going to be going on sale?'.

To which Cruz replied: 'I'm not gonna make you pay to hang out with me, I'll always stay as long as I can after shows, can't wait to meet everyone'. 

Before adding: 'This is the reason why gigging first was so important to me. Get to know you guys. See which songs are your favourite, Grow with you. Learn with you. See you soon!'.

After tickets went on sale at 10am on Friday, venues in Southampton, Leeds and his second London gig were already showing 'low availability' within just 20 minutes.

Cruz took to his Instagram amid the scramble to promote the tour and to announce the release of his new single For Your Love on February 13. 

He said: 'Tickets to the For Your Love tour on sale now, quite obviously song will follow. This song is so special to me, I can’t believe it’s yours on the 13th'. Girlfriend Jackie Apostel, 29, rushed to the comments, saying: 'Finally' 

While fans wrote: 'Got my tickets': 'Love the song. Look forward to seeing you and the band live in Glasgow': 'Oasis vibes. Love it': 'Purchased Glasgow and London. Please add meet and greets': 'Yorkshire will love your music'.

After announcing the tour last week mum Victoria was one of the first to publicly praise Cruz as she gushed: 'So proud of you Cruz!!'.

It comes after younger brother Cruz appeared to backtrack on his swipe at brother Brooklyn, after deleting a pointed TikTok posted on Tuesday. 

He took to the site to share a video with their brother Romeo, with the caption: 'Imagine hating and we’re just here like.'

The video was taken as a swipe due to its proximity to 26-year-old Brooklyn's profession of his feelings towards his parents, who he denounced last week in a shocking statement, in which he blasted his family's 'inauthentic' way. 

While Victoria and David have maintained a stoic silence in the wake of the controversy, Cruz's video's snide nature caused ructions, which undoubtedly led to the subsequent deletion by the up and coming singer.  

Last week, Brooklyn published his scathing six-page statement about his family where he said he has no interest in reconciling with them, including dad David, yet his brothers Romeo and Cruz, and sister Harper, 14, have been kept out of his narrative.

Despite this, Cruz seemed keen to make the statement through his playful Instagram post about resistance towards haters.

In the video, Cruz and Romeo were joined by their respective girlfriends Jackie Apostel and Kim Turnbull in the video during their trip to Paris, during which they have been inseparable, with the foursome enjoying dinner over the weekend. 

It is not known why he deleted the video, although the removal was spotted by a host of fellow TikTok users who have been following the feud.

Last week, Cruz threw his support behind his mum Victoria as the British public launched a campaign to propel the star to number one. 

After Brooklyn broke the internet with his allegations - including a bizarre claim that Victoria 'danced inappropriately on him' at his wedding - Posh Spice fans rallied to get the star her first ever solo spot on the charts. 

In the wake of a huge campaign among her fans, last week Victoria bagged her first ever solo number one - with her 2001 single Not Such An Innocent Girl reaching number one on the iTunes chart in the UK and Ireland. 

Taking to his Instagram stories, Cruz shared a picture of a drink while subtly adding Not Such An Innocent Girl over the top as the song soared the charts. 

The chart positions have been driven by a campaign which is determined to 'fix the national tragedy' that 'Victoria is the only Spice Girl without a solo #1.'

'Nothing says "British Culture" like collectively deciding to send Posh to the top of the charts because her son roasted her on Insta. Imagine both their faces,' reads a viral post on Instagram which has been shared by the likes of Katherine Ryan and Luisa Zissman.

The Instagram account Our_dream_house writes: 'I've seen more VB music promo in the last 24 hours than in the last 20 years and I am obsessed. Let's get her that #1 for the plot twist of the year.

Brooklyn Beckham's statement in full

I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private. 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. For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family. The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.

Recently, I have seen with my own eyes the lengths that they'll go through to place countless lies in the media, mostly at the expense of innocent people, to preserve their own facade. But I believe the truth always comes out.

My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn't stopped. My mum cancelled making Nicola's dress in the eleventh hour despite how excited she was to wear her design, forcing her to urgently find a new dress. 

Weeks before our big day, my parents repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me into signing away the rights to my name, which would have affected me, my wife, and our future children.

They were adamant on me signing before my wedding date because then the terms of the deal would be initiated. My holdout affected the payday, and they have never treated me the same since. 

During the wedding planning, my mum went so far as to call me "evil" because Nicola and I chose to include my Nanny Sandra, and Nicola's Naunni at our table, because they both didn't have their husbands. Both of our parents had their own tables equally adjacent to ours.

The night before our wedding, members of my family told me that Nicola was "not blood" and "not family." Since the moment I started standing up for myself with my family, I've received endless attacks from my parents, both privately and publicly, that were sent to the press on their orders.

Even my brothers were sent to attack me on social media, before they ultimately blocked me out of nowhere this last Summer. 

My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song. In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead. 

She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I've never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life. We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment.

My wife has been consistently disrespected by my family, no matter how hard we've tried to come together as one. My mum has repeatedly invited women from my past into our lives in ways that were clearly intended to make us both uncomfortable.

Despite this, we still travelled to London for my dad's birthday and were rejected for a week as we waited in our hotel room trying to plan quality time with him. He refused all of our attempts, unless it was at his big birthday party with a hundred guests and cameras at every corner.

When he finally agreed to see me, it was under the condition that Nicola wasn't invited. It was a slap in the face. Later, when my family travelled to LA, they refused to see me at all.

My family values public promotion and endorsements above all else. Brand Beckham comes first. Family "love" is decided by how much you post on social media, or how quickly you drop everything to show up and pose for a family photo opp, even if it's at the expense of our professional obligations.

We've gone out of our way for years to show up and support at every fashion show, every party, and every press activity to show 'our perfect family.' But the one time my wife asked for my mum's support to save displaced dogs during the LA fires, my mum refused.

The narrative that my wife controls me is completely backwards. I have been controlled by my parents for most of my life. I grew up with overwhelming anxiety. For the first time in my life, since stepping away from my family, that anxiety has disappeared.

I wake up every morning grateful for the life I chose, and have found peace and relief. My wife and I do not want a life shaped by image, press, or manipulation. All we want peace, privacy and happiness for us and our future family.
