Allegations have surfaced that Nicola Peltz, who is the wife of Brooklyn Beckham, behaved poorly towards Romeo Beckham’s former girlfriend – a situation insiders say ignited a long-standing tension between the brothers.

 

Nicola, 30, and Brooklyn, 26, have reportedly been at odds with the Beckham clan after notably skipping David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebrations earlier this month – a move that only intensified speculation of a family fallout.

While some have pointed fingers at Romeo’s current partner Kim Turnbull, 24 – who once briefly dated Brooklyn in 2016 – as the source of friction, those close to the situation claim the seeds of discord were actually sown much earlier.

Sources say the trouble dates back to preparations for Brooklyn and Nicola’s extravagant wedding in Florida in 2022. During the lead-up, and even at the wedding itself, Nicola is said to have completely ignored Romeo’s then-girlfriend, Mia Regan – despite her and Romeo having been together for three years at that point.

Guests were reportedly left perplexed by the bride’s attitude, describing it as “absolutely baffling.” Adding to the awkwardness, Romeo served as one of Brooklyn’s best men alongside their younger brother Cruz, now 20.

“Brooklyn and Romeo have been fighting for a significant amount of time,” a source told the Daily Mail. “They do not get on. It has been so difficult for David and Victoria.”

The brothers, once extremely close and known for doting on their younger siblings Cruz and Harper, 13, have grown apart, the insider added. “Things have been terrible for a long time. It has upset their mum and dad so much. All they ever wanted was a big, happy family.”

According to those familiar with the situation, Brooklyn’s wedding marked a breaking point. Romeo reportedly saw the escalating tension as unnecessary and avoidable.

Though Brooklyn and Nicola have consistently denied any estrangement from the Beckhams, claims continue to swirl that communication has largely broken down between the couple and Brooklyn’s family.

One contributing factor, according to past reports, is Brooklyn’s skepticism about Kim Turnbull’s “motives” in dating his younger brother. This tension is said to have led Brooklyn to feel sidelined – as though the family is favoring Romeo over him. David, sources say, has been “devastated” by the turn of events.

At one point, Brooklyn allegedly requested a private meeting with his parents during the birthday celebrations – specifically to avoid crossing paths with Kim. However, David and Victoria are said to have turned down the proposal. Complicating matters further is the history between Brooklyn and Kim, who dated his close friend Rocco Ritchie, Madonna’s son, back in 2016.

Speaking to the Mirror, a source close to Brooklyn and Nicola revealed the emotional toll the rift is taking on the couple. “Nicola encourages Brooklyn to see his family and is usually the reason Brooklyn does see his family.

“They are both devastated. They cannot believe that Victoria and David refused to see them privately after they travelled all the way to London specifically to try to repair the relationship.”

The source continued: “As parents, it’s shocking that Victoria and David are behaving this way… instead of privately discussing the issue. Victoria and David (appear to) have no interest in finding a solution that works for everyone.”

A separate insider previously told the Mirror: “Brooklyn not turning up was a real blow to David. Brooklyn was close with his dad growing up, but he is married now. His wife Nicola is older and confident in her own right, and so there is distance between Brooklyn and his parents.

“It has become a problem and not something they can keep private because of the way the family uses social media. Things have escalated in recent months, and there is a very obvious rift that David and Victoria would love to heal.”

The Mirror has approached Nicola and Brooklyn’s representatives for comment on this story.
