Actress and heiress Nicola Peltz has offered a glimpse into her private world with husband Brooklyn Beckham, sharing intimate birthday tributes even as a reported rift with his famous parents continues to escalate.
Social Media Snaps Amidst Family Tensions
Following her 31st birthday celebrations on Friday, Peltz took to Instagram to post a series of images she captioned 'some beautiful moments'. The photos showcased eye-popping bouquets of roses, believed to be a gift from her 26-year-old husband, alongside pictures of her brother Bradley Peltz and her pet dog.
Brooklyn Beckham was quick to comment on the post, writing 'I love you baby girl xx'. He also made his own public tribute, sharing an image from their vow renewal ceremony and penning a gushing message: 'I am the luckiest man to call you my wife'.
A Legal Barrier and Social Media Purge
These sweet displays come against a backdrop of deepening estrangement within the Beckham family. It has been reported that Brooklyn has instructed his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, to communicate with him only through lawyers. A source close to the situation told The Mirror this drastic step was taken to protect Brooklyn's mental health, after public posts from his parents which tagged or mentioned him allegedly caused him distress.
In a parallel move, Nicola Peltz has removed all traces of the Beckham family from her own social media profiles. This purge notably included deleting a past birthday tribute to her mother-in-law, Victoria Beckham. The post, from 2024, had once been seen as silencing rumours of a feud.
While Peltz cleansed her account, Brooklyn has reportedly gone a step further by blocking his entire family on social media, a fact confirmed by his younger brother Cruz. The row is said to centre on Brooklyn's feeling that his parents still treat him as a child rather than an adult, and his desire for any reconciliation attempts to happen 'privately' rather than in the public eye.
Roots of the Rift: Wedding Whispers and Family Dynamics
Rumours of tension between Nicola Peltz and Victoria Beckham first emerged around the time of the couple's multi-million-dollar wedding in April 2022. Insiders claimed friction arose when Peltz did not wear a dress by Victoria's fashion label, opting for designs from Valentino and others instead.
Further reports suggested Victoria was displeased with her limited involvement in the lavish wedding plans, which were heavily orchestrated by the Peltz family. A source previously stated the Beckhams felt sidelined on the big day, with the top table dominated by Peltz's relatives.
Despite the current frost, David and Victoria Beckham are said to be holding onto hope for a family reunion. Meanwhile, Nicola Peltz's latest posts firmly spotlight her own family, whom she called 'my crew', sharing snaps at her parents' lavish home.
