Actress Nicola Peltz is offering a glimpse into her husband Brooklyn Beckham‘s bond with her family. The latter has an ongoing rift with his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, and has seemingly found comfort and support in his wife’s parents and siblings.
Nicola Peltz’s Parents Treat Her Husband As Their Own
In an interview with ELLE Spain published on March 20, Peltz shared how her husband, Beckham, fits into the Peltz’s lives. The actress said her parents, billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz and former model Claudia Heffner Peltz, treat Beckham like “another son.”
Peltz, who has six brothers, added that Bekcham also had a good relationship with his brothers. “He gets along really well with my brothers. They play soccer together a lot,” she shared.
In February, as reported by The Blast, Peltz’s father, Nelson, was asked about the ongoing tensions between Beckham and his parents. He said he advised the couple to “stay the hell out of the press” but didn’t elaborate further, saying instead, “I’ll tell you my daughter’s great, my son-in-law Brooklyn, is great, and I look forward to them having a long, happy marriage together.”
Nicola Peltz Met Brooklyn At A Party
Peltz said that she and Beckham crossed paths before, but never got to talking until years later at a Halloween party. According to the actress, Beckham was “staring” at her when she arrived, and they got to know each other.
Beckham was in Los Angeles at that time for 10 days, and as Peltz shared, she didn’t typically stay out late at night, preferring to sleep early. At that time, however, she ignored her habit and instead spent time with Beckham. “We were together until 10 in the morning, driving around the city, exploring… We made excuses not to be apart.”
Peltz told her mother about staying out late, and she told her, “If you’ve stayed up this late, he’s the one.”
Nicola Peltz And Brooklyn Beckham’s Wedding
Peltz and Beckham began dating in 2019. Eight months into their relationship, Beckham proposed, announcing their engagement on Instagram, writing, “I am the luckiest man in the world. I promise to be the best husband and the best daddy one day.”
The couple got married in a star-studded ceremony in 2022. The wedding was at the Peltz’s family estate in Palm Beach, Florida, and they celebrated with almost 600 guests, as reported by PEOPLE. Some of the stars who attended include Marc Anthony, Eva Longoria, Serena and Venus Williams, and Gordon Ramsay.
At that time, there were already rumors circulating about Peltz and her mother-in-law not getting along, but the actress said it may have stemmed from her wearing a Valentino gown instead of one created by Victoria. She clarified the situation, saying that she wanted to wear a Victoria Beckham creation, but the atelier didn’t have the time to make one, so she picked the Valentino.
Brooklyn Beckham Accused His Parents Of Disrespecting His Wife
In January, Beckham released a statement on Instagram Stories. He accused his family of “consistently disrespecting” Peltz, writing that the night before their wedding, the Beckhams told him that Peltz “was ‘not blood’ and ‘not family’.”
Moreover, Beckham claimed Victoria “hijacked” his first dance with Peltz. “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.” He added that Victoria danced “very inappropriately.”
In regard to the wedding dress, Brooklyn said that her mother had cancelled making Peltz’s dress “in the eleventh hour,” which forced her to find a new one to wear. “I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he noted.
Brooklyn Beckham Remains Estranged From His Family
Beckham has avoided his family since his scathing statement, choosing to ignore them when they extended an olive branch. On his birthday in early March, both Victoria and David greeted him on social media, posting photos of themselves together with their son during happier times and telling him they love him.
Peltz also posted on Instagram for Beckham’s birthday, sharing how he surprised her husband with donuts and balloons. While Beckham responded to his wife’s post, he chose to ignore his parents’ birthday greetings.
On March 15, UK’s Mother’s Day, Beckham posted a photo on Instagram Stories, greeting his mother-in-law, who celebrated her birthday on March 12. “Happy birthday to the best mother in law x,” he wrote. Meanwhile, he didn’t give a shout-out to Victoria.
