On May 21, 2025, Nicola Peltz, the 30-year-old actress and model, shared heartfelt Instagram Stories showcasing a cosy backyard picnic with her husband, Brooklyn Beckham, amid speculation of tensions with his parents, David and Victoria Beckham. The posts, capturing the couple enjoying takeout under Los Angeles skies, underscored Peltz’s emotional support for Brooklyn, 26, as reports suggest a strained relationship with his Britain-based family.
Peltz’s Instagram Stories featured Brooklyn, dressed casually in a cap and T-shirt, promoting his Cloud 23 hot sauce brand, launched in October 2024. “I love you so much, baby,” Peltz wrote, adding, “Thankful for the angels in my life,” in a heartfelt note. The posts, while lighthearted, align with ongoing rumours of friction within the Beckham family, particularly after Brooklyn reportedly skipped his father David’s 50th birthday celebration in March 2025, despite an invitation, as noted by PEOPLE.

Speculation about a rift between Brooklyn and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, has persisted since 2023, fueled by his absence from family events and the couple’s relocation to Los Angeles. Sources cited by The Sun and PEOPLE suggest Brooklyn’s limited involvement in family life has left David and Victoria “hurt and disappointed.” However, a source told PEOPLE the relationship “is not beyond repair.” Peltz has repeatedly denied any feud, stating to Cosmopolitan in March 2023, “There’s no feud. It’s weird when you know the truth and read something wrong.”
Victoria’s May 19, 2025, Instagram post, featuring a family photo with Brooklyn affectionately embracing his sister Harper, hinted at reconciliation efforts. “We both love you all so much,” Victoria wrote, possibly addressing her eldest son.

Context of the Beckham-Peltz Marriage
Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham married in April 2022 in a high-profile Palm Beach ceremony, blending their families’ celebrity status. Peltz is an actress and heiress, and Brooklyn is the son of a soccer legend and a Spice Girl. Their move to Los Angeles, away from the UK-based Beckhams, has fueled perceptions of distance, though Peltz’s supportive posts suggest she’s anchoring Brooklyn emotionally. Brooklyn’s ventures, like Cloud 23, indicate his focus on building an independent identity.

Social media has reacted with mixed reactions to the narrative of a Beckham family feud. Media outlets like The Sun amplify the drama, but Peltz’s 2023 Cosmopolitan interview counters the narrative, emphasising unity. The lack of direct statements from David or Brooklyn leaves room for speculation, though no evidence confirms a permanent rift.
Peltz and Brooklyn’s Los Angeles lifestyle suggests they’re carving their path, but Victoria’s recent post indicates hope for family reconnection.
