Nicola Peltz, the 30-year-old actress and heiress, appeared to make a pointed remark aimed at her husband Brooklyn Beckham's estranged family over the weekend. The couple remained in Los Angeles, conspicuously absent from the high-profile UK wedding of family friend Holly Ramsay.
A Cryptic Social Media Message
On Sunday, Peltz shared a stylish selfie on social media, showcasing her trim figure in a skimpy black vest and chic sunglasses. The accompanying caption, 'Love being home', was interpreted by many as a subtle dig, given the couple's decision to stay in LA rather than travel to the UK for the wedding celebrations. Brooklyn, 26, was quick to lavish praise on his wife in the comments, writing: 'Damn she sexy xx'.
This comes after the aspiring chef reportedly blocked his famous family—father David, mother Victoria, and siblings—on Instagram, in what sources describe as a sign of his 'complete estrangement' from them. The couple spent Christmas with Nicola's billionaire parents in Miami, Florida, with Brooklyn declaring his wife 'My Everything' in a defiant festive post.
Missing a Major Family Event
The wedding in question saw Holly Ramsay, 25, daughter of celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay, marry Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty, 31. The Beckhams are long-term friends of the Ramsays, with both families having relocated to the US in the early 2000s and their children growing up together.
Sir David and Victoria Beckham, along with their children Romeo, Cruz, and Harper—all close friends of the Ramsays—were in attendance at the celebrity-studded ceremony. Brooklyn's absence was notably felt. Sources familiar with the event stated that Brooklyn, once a central part of the joint family gatherings, 'will of course be missed'.
It remains unclear whether Brooklyn was invited and declined or did not make the guest list. However, insiders suggest it would be unlike Holly to snub him, as the Ramsays are thought to maintain an 'open door' policy towards the aspiring chef, viewing his absence as a 'huge shame'.
A Web of Strained Relationships
The rift appears to extend beyond the immediate Beckham family. Brooklyn's once-close friendship with Gordon Ramsay's eldest son, Jack—now in the Marines—has also reportedly fizzled out. Friends of both families indicate their bond began to unravel when Brooklyn started dating Nicola Peltz.
While in LA, Brooklyn offered a cryptic hint about his feelings on the wedding day itself. He posted a picture of one of his four rescue dogs wearing a green Grinch-themed hat, a move seen by many as a telling commentary on the festivities he was missing.
Instead of wedding celebrations, Brooklyn was seen enjoying a tennis match in sunny LA with American pro player Reilly Opelka and Nicola's brother, Bradley Peltz. The ongoing saga continues to captivate public attention, marking one of the most public and protracted family disputes in British celebrity circles.
