Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham’s wedding in April 2022 was a star-studded affair, taking place at the Peltz family estate in Palm Beach, Florida. Guests included notable figures like Serena and Venus Williams and Eva Longoria, marking a celebration filled with glamour. However, what followed was a storm of allegations that put a strain on the couple’s familial ties.
In January 2026, Brooklyn took to Instagram to express his deep frustrations, claiming that his parents, Victoria and David Beckham, tried to sabotage his relationship with Nicola long before their wedding. He stated, “My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding,” revealing that family members made disparaging remarks about Nicola at the wedding and pressured him to distance himself from her.
The tension reportedly escalated before the wedding, with Brooklyn alleging that his parents attempted to bribe him to relinquish rights to his name. He also shared that Victoria had canceled her plans to design Nicola’s wedding dress at the last minute, leading Nicola to wear a custom Valentino gown instead. This decision, according to Nicola, stemmed from logistical issues rather than any lack of desire to wear a Beckham creation.
Another incident that Brooklyn pointed to as distressing occurred during their wedding when his mother allegedly interrupted a dance meant for him and Nicola, instead choosing to dance with Brooklyn in a manner he described as uncomfortable. This incident reportedly caused significant emotional distress, leading Nicola to leave the room in tears. However, other accounts from guests depicted a more relaxed atmosphere during the celebration.
In December 2022, additional drama ensued when Nelson Peltz, Nicola’s father, sued the wedding planners for failing to return a hefty deposit and misrepresenting their capabilities. The legal battle was settled in September 2023.
Despite the tumultuous aftermath of their wedding, the couple chose to renew their vows in August 2025. Brooklyn highlighted the desire to create positive memories that overshadow the anxiety initially associated with their wedding day.
As of now, both David and Victoria Beckham have not publicly responded to their son’s allegations, although David did acknowledge the challenges of parenting in the age of social media. With the public eye focused on their relationship, Brooklyn and Nicola are determined to redefine their journey together amid the challenges they face as a couple.
