He hails from one of the most famous families in the UK, the Beckhams.

Yet Brooklyn witnessed another level of wealth and influence when he met wife Nicola Peltz, gaining an incredibly glamorous in-laws with a $1.7 billion net worth.

On Monday, Brooklyn took to Instagram to launch an extraordinary attack on his famous family, accusing his parents David and Victoria of ‘controlling’ him in a bombshell statement.

The eldest son of David and Victoria, 26, shared a six-page statement, claiming his parents have made no attempt to hide their dislike for Nicola and accusing Victoria and David of making comments the night before the wedding that Nicola was ‘not blood’ and ‘not family’.

The news has been on everyones lips and since former Spice Girl Victoria has even bagged her first ever solo number one after a huge social media campaign pushed her to the top of the chart.

Victoria’s 2001 single Not Such An Innocent Girl, a track which showcased Posh Spice’s raunchy dance moves, has shot to number one on the iTunes chart in the UK and Ireland.

The chart positions have been driven by a social media campaign which is determined to ‘fix the national tragedy’ that ‘Victoria is the only Spice Girl without a solo #1.’

‘Nothing says ‘British Culture’ like collectively deciding to send Posh to the top of the charts because her son roasted her on Insta. Imagine both their faces,’ reads a viral post on Instagram which has been shared by the likes of Katherine Ryan and Luisa Zissman.

Brooklyn Beckham’s intriguing life with the Peltz clan including their lavish $1.6 billion fortune, Nicola’s Trump supporting father Nelson and her six brothers who made sure she ‘never needed approval from a guy’

It comes after 65 per cent of Daily Mail readers said they would back ‘Team Beckham’ over ‘Team Brooklyn’ in Tuesday’s Poll of the Day which attracted 26,000 votes.

The mum of four is said to have been left ‘devastated’ after taking the brunt in the vicious family fallout with son Brooklyn and Nicola.

Despite proudly declaring he was a once a ‘mama’s boy’, Brooklyn focused mainly on Lady Beckham in his lengthy statement, with his vitriolic comments leaving her ‘on the floor in pieces’.

But Brooklyn has been welcomed with open arms into the Peltz clan, with Brooklyn uprooting his London life to reside in the US nearer her family.

Since tying the knot at the Peltz’s family estate in Florida in 2022, the eldest Beckham son has gushed over his new family on social media, joined family holidays and even sought career advice from her billionaire father Nelson, who was accused of being a ‘bully’ by the pair’s wedding planners amid their lawsuit following the big day.

Nicola’s father made his billions after starting out his career as a delivery truck driver and working his way up to launch one of the biggest food distributing companies in the world.

He is now worth far more than the Beckhams – with a stunning net worth of $1.6 billion – while her mother Claudia is a former model.

With a slew of celebrity friends, including being a former friend of President Donald Trump, Nelson has been open about his support of his political ideals in the past.

Despite later expressing regrets after voting Trump in the 2020 election, in 2024 he revealed he would once again be gaining his vote, citing the ongoing migrant crisis as the reason why.

Nelson was born to a Jewish family in Brooklyn, and dropped out of the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School in 1962 with the dreams of becoming a ski instructor, but instead, began working as a delivery truck driver for his grandfather’s food distribution business, A. Peltz & Sons.

He then focused his efforts into building his family’s tiny frozen-food business in Brooklyn into one of the largest frozen food distributors in the north east.

Her family has seemingly embraced Brooklyn with open arms, welcoming him into their brood with great enthusiasm, and even more so since he cut ties with his own family (pictured with Nicola’s six brothers and dad)

Slowly working his way up the rankings, eventually, he and his brother, Robert Peltz (Nicola’s uncle), found themselves in charge of the company.

The brothers worked hard to expand the business, which they renamed Flagstaff Corp., and by 1973, it had earned more than $150 million in sales.

It went on to become one of the the largest packaging companies in the world, before they ultimately sold it, earning Nelson $840 million in the process.

Nelson, along with his business partner, Peter May, then founded an investing firm called Trian Fund Management, L.P., which went on to invest in companies like Heinz, Cadbury, Kraft Foods, Pepsi, Procter & Gamble, and Family Dollar.

He is now also the non-executive chairman of Wendy’s, Sysco, and The Madison Square Garden Company.

And Brooklyn has made sure to appeal to Nelson’s expertise when furthering his own career.

Despite only being 26, Brooklyn has tried his hand at a number of different careers including football, photography, modelling and now cooking while also growing his hot sauce brand Cloud 23.

And Nicola previously revealed he has turned to her dad Nelson, not his own father David, for advice on how to expand his career.

‘Brooklyn is getting into very exciting things with his shows and also business things and it’s really sweet,’ she told Tatler. ‘I watch him call my dad and say, ‘What do you think about this?’ I love watching him learn from my dad.’

Nelson has been married three time, and is currently still married to Nicola’s mum, Claudia.

They tied the knot in 1985, and have had eight children together; Matthew, 41, a businessman; Will, 39, an actor-model; Brad, 36, a former ice hockey player; Darren (known as Diesel), 31, a tech entrepreneur; twins Zachary and Gregory, 22, Brittany, 35, who is a children’s clothes designer and Nicola.

He also has two children from his past relationships.

‘I think growing up with brothers made me really confident in who I am. I never feel like I need approval from a guy – my brothers have nailed that into me,’ said Nicola

Speaking to Tatler in 2022 the aspiring actress revealed how she’d developed a steely self-confidence thanks to growing up with six brothers.

‘I think growing up with brothers made me really confident in who I am. I never feel like I need approval from a guy – my brothers have nailed that into me.’

The following year, she spoke to Cosmopolitan UK about her brothers as she confessed: ‘I think growing up with six brothers, they’ve drilled into my brain, ‘You’re amazing, you’re amazing’, especially with relationships.

‘I’ve only had three boyfriends because I’ve always been standoffish until I really like someone.

‘My brothers were always like, ‘No, you deserve better, you deserve better, you deserve better,’ – so I think in that way, I’m confident.’

That confidence has been much needed while she’s tried to pursue a career as an actress, admitting that from a young age she’s ‘put up a wall to failure’ and is like a ‘robot’ when it comes to rejection after being told no ‘a million and one times’.

The billionaire investor and his wife own property in Palm Beach, Florida, as well as Bedford, New York, where they seem to split their time.

The sprawling mansion in New York comes complete with its own ice hockey rink, a full rota of staff – including housekeepers, bodyguards, maids, and gardeners – and a flock of albino peacocks, while the $85.6 million, 44,000-square-foot home in Florida boasts 27 bedrooms, an enormous outdoor pool, tennis courts, and a guest house, sitting on a whopping 13-acres of land.

Brooklyn and Nicola tied the knot at their family estate in Florida as they welcomed their 500 guests to the 44,000 sq ft beach house.

But after the wedding drama struck when Nicola’s father filed a lawsuit against two of the couple’s wedding planners, Plan Design’s Nicole Eichenwald Braghin and Arianna Grijalba, who were hired six weeks before the wedding and let go nine days later.

He claimed he did not get his $159,000 (£132,000) deposit back, and according to his filing, he alleged: ‘During their nine days of negotiations… (they) failed to book a single new wedding vendor, failed to finalise the terms of any agreements with any of the vendors that had previously been selected by Peltz and his family and failed to attend previously scheduled meetings with Peltz.

‘The celebrity of the wedding couple combined with the anticipated attendance of many high-profile guests required that the wedding planner have the expertise and staffing to plan, coordinate and execute a wedding event of the expected caliber and complexity.

‘The guest list included more than five hundred people, including numerous celebrities, athletes, dignitaries and other influential individuals, who travelled from all around the globe to attend.’

Nelson and Claudia reside in a  27 bedroom mansion in a town on New York’s wealthy outskirts called Bedford, which is a favourite among celebrities such as Ryan Reynolds and Bruce Willis

But Nicole and Arianna hit back calling Nelson a ‘bully billionaire’ and filed a counterclaim in a Miami court for breach of contract and ‘interference’ with a business deal.

Their lawyer told The Mail On Sunday at the time: ‘My clients have impeccable reputations within the event-planning industry and among their high-end clientele worldwide. They operate their business with the utmost integrity and discretion.

‘The lawsuit that was filed by Nelson Peltz is frivolous and unimpressive. Relevant and complete emails and text messages that address the misleading statements contained in the complaint will be revealed in discovery as part of my clients’ response to the complaint, including in support of the counterclaim they intend to file.’

In September 2023 the lawsuits were settled after both parties reached an agreement following months of back and forth.

They said in a statement obtained by PEOPLE: ‘The parties believe that this contract dispute between Nelson Peltz and Plan Design should be resolved on the terms agreed.

‘As part of the settlement, PDE will make a donation in the name of Nicola and Brooklyn to the CARE Ukraine Crisis Fund.

‘PDE wishes Nicola and Brooklyn Peltz Beckham happiness and a fruitful life together.’

Nelson and Claudia also own two private jets and have gained a slew of celebrity friends, including golfer and entrepreneur Greg Norman and President Donald Trump.

The tycoon was a long-term supporter of Trump – they have been neighbors for decades in Florida and he even held a $590,000-per-couple fundraiser for the politician.

Nelson said previously: ‘His policies, to me, are the right policies for America. We have exported tens of millions of jobs – of manufacturing jobs over the last 40, 50 years, pick whatever time frame you want.

‘We exported them generously. We gave them to Europe, we gave them to Asia. Now it’s time to bring those jobs back.’

However after the Capitol Hill riots in January 2021, he told CNBC that he was ‘sorry’ he voted for Trump in the 2020 election.

Yet later in 2024, he did a U-turn and said he would likely vote for Trump in the upcoming election that November, citing the ongoing migrant crisis as the reason why.

He told the Financial Times that he had worries over the rising amount of immigration into the US under President Joe Biden, calling it ‘degrading’.

He also hit out at President Biden saying that his current ‘mental condition is really scary’.

Brooklyn made sure to dedicate a post on the anniversary of Nicola’s grandmother’s death in May

He said: ‘I don’t know what he knows and I don’t know what he doesn’t know.

‘I don’t know who’s speaking for him and that’s troubling’, and then added: ‘It will probably be Trump and I’m not happy about that.’

But drawn to support Trump over a surge in immigration over the southern border, Nelson said: ‘We can’t go on letting everyone into this country. We have an immigration problem — it’s not a Republican or Democrat problem.

‘The US should not halt immigration but I want some boundaries put on it so we know at least who we’re bringing in.’

Since cutting ties with his own family, Brooklyn hasn’t shied away from publicly declaring his love for the Peltz’s and has joined them on family gatherings, including their getaway to St Tropez last summer.

The amateur chef spent the week on a £85million superyacht called Project X, which is chartered for £1.2million per week.

The 260ft luxury vessel was rented by Nicola’s billionaire parents, who holidayed with the couple and the rest of the Peltz clan.

The luxurious vessel dwarfs David and Victoria’s £16million yacht, Seven, and boasts a master suite, a VIP cabin, five double rooms as well as two twin cabins, while being able to hold a crew of 28 to run the boat.

Back in July Brooklyn also shared a snap with Nicola, Nelson and the brothers as he captioned the post with a love heart.

He also made sure to wish his father-in-law a public happy birthday in June, despite completely snubbing his own father’s 50th in May.

In June the couple attended her brother Will’s 39th birthday as they were snapped at the bash at The Rox in West Hollywood.

Meanwhile he made sure to dedicate a post on the anniversary of Nicola’s grandmother’s death in May.

In an emotional tribute he penned: ‘Can’t believe it’s been a year without you naunni x you were always so happy and always made me laugh. I miss you and will love you forever x  it makes me so sad to think of our future kids not being able to know you x you were one of a kind and we miss you everyday ’.
