Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham have announced the rescue of another puppy, named Tami, through her charitable organisation Yogi's House. This latest animal rescue comes amid ongoing family tensions, with Brooklyn recently claiming his mother, Victoria Beckham, declined to contribute to their fundraiser for dogs displaced by the devastating Los Angeles wildfires.
New Arrival Amid Ongoing Dispute
The actress, 31, and aspiring chef, 26, shared a video on Instagram introducing their newest canine addition. The caption accompanying the footage read: 'We saved this beautiful girl and her sister today if you're interested in making her your daughter!' This rescue follows their previous efforts through Yogi's House, which focuses on saving dogs from overcrowded Los Angeles shelters and preventing euthanasia.
Wildfire Fundraiser Controversy
Last week, Brooklyn released a detailed statement addressing what he described as a long-running feud with his family. In his account, he claimed that Victoria had snubbed Nicola's request for support during their efforts to help animals affected by the LA fires last year. Brooklyn emphasised this was 'the only time they had ever asked for anything' from his parents.
Despite Victoria's public expressions of sympathy for wildfire victims on social media, where she described the devastation as 'truly heartbreaking' and praised emergency responders, Brooklyn maintains she refused to support their specific animal rescue initiative. The couple ultimately raised $59,000 through Yogi's House and an associated GoFundMe campaign, which collected $59,444 to rescue pets from wildlife-affected areas and transport them to safe foster homes.
Family Divisions Become Public
The puppy rescue announcement coincides with visible family divisions. While Brooklyn and Nicola shared TikTok clips and Instagram posts documenting their weekend together with their fluffy white dog Lamb, the rest of the Beckham family gathered in Paris to support Victoria as she received the prestigious Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters award from the French Ministry of Culture.
Notably absent from the Paris ceremony was Brooklyn, who made his loyalties clear through his non-attendance. Victoria was joined by husband David, their children Romeo, Cruz, and Harper, along with several close friends and partners. In her acceptance speech, Victoria thanked her children for 'always believing in my vision', despite Brooklyn's recent public criticisms.
Broader Context of the Dispute
Brooklyn's lengthy statement outlined multiple grievances beyond the wildfire fundraiser refusal. He alleged that Victoria cancelled designing Nicola's wedding dress at the 'eleventh hour', attempted to pressure him into signing away rights to his name before his wedding, and 'hijacked' his first dance with inappropriate behaviour. He also claimed family members told him Nicola was 'not blood' and 'not family' before their wedding.
The aspiring chef described feeling controlled by what he called 'Brand Beckham', suggesting his family values public promotion above authentic relationships. He stated that since distancing himself from his family, his previously overwhelming anxiety has disappeared, and he has found 'peace and relief' with Nicola.
Animal Welfare Efforts Continue
Meanwhile, Nicola and Brooklyn continue their animal welfare work. Their charity Yogi's House remains active in Los Angeles, where devastating wildfires in January 2025 claimed 31 lives, forced over 200,000 evacuations, and destroyed more than 18,000 structures. The couple have documented their efforts through social media, including sharing snaps from the Pendry Hotel in West Hollywood where brands donated items for those in need.
Despite both coming from wealthy backgrounds - Nicola being the daughter of billionaire Nelson Peltz and Brooklyn from one of Britain's most famous families - records show Brooklyn donated just $5,000 to the wildfire animal rescue cause they championed.
The Beckham family has maintained public silence regarding Brooklyn's allegations, with Victoria said to be 'feeling betrayed' after years spent protecting him from negative stories. As the couple welcome their newest rescue puppy, the family divisions appear to remain unresolved, with animal welfare providing one consistent focus for Nicola and Brooklyn amidst the ongoing personal tensions.
