The marriage of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz took a sour turn in 2022, and a recent revelation has shed more light on the simmering tension between the two families on their special day.
A wedding guest has come forward to detail the strained relationship between Brooklyn and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, and his siblings Romeo, Cruz, and Harper.
The family has been embroiled in a tense feud, with Brooklyn airing all the dirty laundry in a lengthy Instagram statement earlier this year, accusing his family of manipulating him.
The couple lives in Los Angeles and are completely estranged from their parents and siblings, a situation that predates their bombshell statement.
Rumors of a rift between the family members had been brewing for years, particularly around the trouble at their Palm Beach wedding in 2022, with Victoria's behavior being a major point of contention.
There was chatter of an "inappropriate" mother-son dance, a debacle over wedding outfits, and a power struggle between Victoria and Nicola.
The tension between the families continued, with Brooklyn and Nicola renewing their vows in August 2025, to which none of the 27-year-old's immediate family was invited.
The families have been on bad terms for several years prior to the 2022 wedding, with a wedding guest claiming that the Peltzes cycled through five different wedding planners as they desperately tried to keep the in-laws in the dark about the disorganisation.
During the wedding, one guest claimed that the speeches were another point of contention, with David delivering a long speech exclusively about his relationship with Brooklyn, with no mention of Nicola.
The speech was described as "one of the oddest bits of the day," with David concluding by offering some marriage advice, saying, "The most important thing is to make each other happy. And treat your Mrs like gold."
Nicola's father, Nelson, delivered a short speech that focused on Ukraine, in contrast to David's lengthy speech.
The mother-son dance was also a point of contention, with Nicola planning to dance with Brooklyn before Marc Anthony invited Victoria on stage instead.
The day after the wedding, a guest described the atmosphere at the Peltzes' house in Palm Beach as "like someone had died."
The family's situation has continued to deteriorate, with Brooklyn blocking his parents and siblings on social media and missing major family milestones, including David's Knighthood and Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremonies.
