Nicola Peltz has sparked speculation of a dig at her estranged mother-in-law Victoria Beckham after posting a photo of herself doing the splits on Instagram. The 31-year-old actress, who is married to Brooklyn Beckham, showcased her flexibility in a pose reminiscent of Victoria's signature leg lift.
Victoria, 51, is famous for her social media posts where she cocks her leg at a 90-degree angle while performing everyday tasks. The pose, first debuted in 2016, has become synonymous with the former Spice Girl and has been recreated by celebrities including Kourtney Kardashian.
Fans were quick to notice the similarity, with one commenting on X: "She's morphing into her mother-in-law." The post comes amid a well-documented rift between Nicola and Victoria, which escalated in January when Brooklyn released a statement saying he never wishes to reconcile with his parents.
Brooklyn accused Victoria of hijacking his first dance with Nicola at their wedding and cancelling the making of Nicola's wedding dress at the last minute. The couple, who married in 2022, have since made a life in Los Angeles, while Brooklyn's visits to his parents' London home have become rare.
An insider previously told HELLO! magazine that tensions rose at the wedding and have continued, with Nicola reportedly not showing what Victoria would consider respect. Nicola recently told ELLE Spain that her own parents welcomed Brooklyn "like another son."
