Brooklyn Beckham comes from a family with a legacy in two different professions. His father, David Beckham, is a legendary former football player. Meanwhile, his mother, Victoria Beckham, is a former ‘Spice Girl’, a band that ruled pop music for decades. However, Brooklyn’s wife, Nicola Peltz, gives him tough competition when it comes to her prestigious family as well. Daughter of one of the pioneer businessmen of New York, Nicola’s blood runs quite blue as well.

Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham got engaged after eight months of dating
In July 2020, Brooklyn surprised the world by posting a picture announcing his engagement to Nicola, after just eight months of dating each other. He joyfully shared in the caption, “Two weeks ago, I asked my soulmate to marry me, and she said yes”. However, the couple did not immediately start planning for their impending nuptials. Nicola and Brooklyn were engaged for almost two years, before tying the knot in 2022. In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Nicola revealed:
“He would tell me all the time, ‘I want to be with you’ or ‘I want to marry you.’ We got engaged eight months into our relationship, and at that point, he’d actually had the ring sitting in our room for three months.”
Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham’s wedding day was ruined by his mother, Victoria Beckham?
Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham tied the knot on April 9, 2022, in the presence of nearly 600 guests, as reported by People. However, this happy day in the couple’s life was reportedly marred by Victoria Beckham ‘ruining’ their first dance. The wedding took place on the bride’s family estate and Marc Anthony had offered to sing at the wedding since as a close friend of the Beckhams. However, for the first dance, the singer reportedly invited mother-in-law, Victoria Beckham, instead of the bride, Nicola.
Reports claimed that Victoria was unbothered by this and went ahead to start dancing with her son. Nicola reportedly left the room in tears. Even the guests were shocked by what was going on. The source was quoted as saying:
“It wasn’t appropriate. Nicola ran from the room crying. Nicola felt like Victoria had done this on purpose, knowing it was a pre-planned romantic dance meant for Brooklyn and Nicola. What she couldn’t understand was why.”
Ongoing rift between Brooklyn Beckham and his family since the incident, reportedly
According to insider sources, Brooklyn and Nicola have been unable to move on from the incident that occurred during their first dance. Recently, the couple exchanged vows again after three years of marriage. However, none of the Beckhams were present at the ceremony. Nicola and Brooklyn have also been living in Los Angeles, U.S.A., far away from the latter’s family residing in the U.K.
