Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have left social media users perplexed after recreating a childhood photograph with friend Damian Hurley. The image, shared by Damian, 24, showed Brooklyn, Damian, and a blonde woman as toddlers posing in a sprawling garden. A second image showed the trio as adults posing in the exact same way.
Photo recreation sparks confusion
In the adult version, Damian lay on the grass looking up, while Brooklyn, 27, rested on his knees. Nicola, 31, posed in a black sweater and low-rise blue jeans, with her thumb in her mouth and looking away from the camera. Damian captioned the post: "Some things never change."
However, all is not as it seems. The photo isn't actually Nicola – instead, it's a childhood friend of both Damian and Brooklyn. The woman in the picture is Esme Bertelsen, the daughter of TV star Susannah Constantine. "Obsessed," Esme said underneath the picture.
Fans question the photo
With hundreds of people flocking to the comments, baffled over the picture after believing the young female was Nicola, Susannah added: "My beautiful daughter."
"Why is Nicola included in the 2nd slide if she isn't the baby in the first one? Just asking," said one fan. A second added: "Wait Brooklyn and Nicola knew each other since babies?" "Is the AI or have they all known each other that long? Either way, adorable pics," commented a third.
Damian's mum, actress Elizabeth Hurley, gushed: "Golly, I remember so clearly when the first shot was taken at Woodside…. what happy days. Sorry I missed the re take." Susannah joked: "'Show us your teeth, Brooklyn'. Can't believe that was 24 years ago!!"
Paris trip details
The sweet childhood reunion comes after Brooklyn narrowly avoided his famous family in Paris. The eldest Beckham son may have been only miles away from his mum and the rest of the Beckham family during Victoria's show, but he avoided them for the entirety of their trip.
Rather than attend her show, Brooklyn was spotted watching the MESSIKA runway and has now snapped a picture of himself and his wife at an iconic Parisian spot. In a post captioned "paris x", Brooklyn was pictured in a passionate kiss with Nicola, with the Eiffel Tower in the background, lit up with sparkling lights.
The amateur chef also posted a picture of himself with a giant pain au chocolat, some escargot, lobster, chocolate, and a selection of pastries. Another picture was taken by Nicola in a mirror, showing her giant engagement ring on her finger as she held onto Brooklyn through his hair.
Fans showered the couple with supportive comments. One said: "May this love find me". Another added: "I love how genuinely happy you guys are."
