Selena Gomez, Nicola Peltz, and Brooklyn Beckham's 'throuple' over say friends
Selena Gomez, Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham's so-called celebrity 'throuple' has reportedly ended. The trio have grown close over recent years, with Only Murders in the Building star Selena, 33, once joking about how she was in a 'throuple' with Nicola, 30, and her husband, 26. Selena's friendship with the Peltz-Beckhams dates back to 2015, when she was first pictured with Brooklyn at New York Fashion Week. In 2022, Selena met Nicola at the Academy Museum Gala, and they quickly became inseparable – even getting matching 'angel' tattoos to show off their bond. A year later, as the gang celebrated New Year's Eve while on holiday in Mexico, Selena joked: 'Fine, call us a throuple,' sharing a series of snaps of them together on Instagram. But as rumours continue of a rift between Brooklyn and his family, the pair are now said to have grown estranged from their celebrity pals, with an insider dramatically declaring that the 'throuple' no longer exists. A source told The Sun that Selena has grown apart from Brooklyn and Nicola after becoming tired of their 'diva'-like behaviour. The insider said: 'Last year, she noticed Nicola's behaviour toward her and [fiancé Benny Blanco] turned into a constant quest for attention. 'There were many tense moments, for example, during dinners and lunches, where Nicola would try to sit where photographers could get the best angle, and she wasn't very nice to Selena if people weren't paying enough attention to her. 'I mean, just look at Nicola and Brooklyn's circle of friends; it's shrinking every week. Some people have turned their backs on them because they've realised how Nicola behaves, and Brooklyn isn't doing much to change the dynamic.' Selena was notably absent from Nicola and Brooklyn's 'secret' vow renewal, which occurred earlier this month, and does not appear to have congratulated them online. Her 'snub' comes amid reports that Brooklyn is no longer in 'contact' with former pals from the UK. A source told The Sun that Brooklyn is now not on speaking terms with fellow nepo babies such as Gordon Ramsay's children, Jack and Holly Ramsay, or Madonna and Guy Ritchie's son, Rocco Ritchie. 'Rocco, Selena, the Ramsay kids – none of them have even liked the wedding pics after Nicola posted, let alone commented to congratulate them,' they said. 'Things have gone very cold with his old friends – it's like the marriage to Nicola meant he started a whole new life with new people around him.' Rumours of a rift between the Peltz-Beckhams and their former friends come as speculation grows that Brooklyn has become increasingly distant from parents David and Victoria Beckham. There have been whispers of a fallout since Brooklyn and Nicola married three years ago, and speculation reached fever pitch over the past few months when they failed to attend David's 50th birthday celebrations. More Trending David, Victoria and Brooklyn's brothers – Cruz and Romeo – also seemed to be absent from the vow renewal, and none have broken social media silence to publicly offer their congratulations. Of the low-key vow renewal, Brooklyn gushed to People: 'We just wanted a really beautiful experience – a really cute memory. 'To be honest, I could renew my vows every single day with her. I think the most important thing that someone can do is find that person that they're going to spend the rest of their life with. View More » 'It definitely shapes you as a person. It was really, really cute. It was really fun.' Got a story?

Outlander: Blood of My Blood sees episodes released weekly Outlander star Harriet Slater has captured the hearts of fans for her role in the highly anticipated prequel, but she has been seen on screens before. Outlander fans have been eagerly awaiting the prequel to the popular show which explores the relationship of Jamie Fraser's parents, Brian Fraser and Ellen MacKenzie. After an impressive 11-year run, Outlander is set to see its eighth and final series next year, concluding author Diana Gabaldon's impressive run. But fans are now tuning into the prequel, Outlander: Blood of My Blood with episodes dropping on MGM+ weekly. Having premiered on August 9, Outlander: Blood of My Blood ventures into unexplored territory as it's not based on any book. Prime Video teases: "The prequel series, Outlander: Blood of My Blood, centers on the lives and relationship of Jamie Fraser's parents, Brian Fraser and Ellen MacKenzie." Blood of My Blood was officially greenlit back in 2023 and it has already been confirmed that there will be a second season. Fans can stream the show now, with episodes released every weekend. The third episode has been released today (August 16), with fans watching Harriet Slater take on the main role of Ellen MacKenzie. But who is Harriet Slater?

Harriet Slater is an English actress, who at 30-years-old has been seen on a number of films and television shows, as well as on the theatre stage. The star was born and raised in Leicester and she has always been into the arts, having been influenced by Lindsay Lohan when she was younger. Slater found her way on stage straight after graduating from drama school, which according to reports she thanks her uncle for. But it wasn't until 2019 she made her debut on television. The star appears to tease fans on Instagram with photos and sneak peak interviews of what she has been up to lately, as well as offering rare glimpses into her personal life away from the screen. Previous roles Not only has slater previously been seen on the Batman prequel Pennyworth as Sandra Onslow where she had a recurring role in season 1 before a main role in seasons 2 to 3.

Panic attacks Harriet Slater has been upfront about her struggles with anxiety and panic attacks, which according to reports has been helped by acting and therapy. In an interview with The Standard, she admitted: "They were about phone calls. I always found phoning people to be really difficult." The star added: "I think it's partly to do with things being misunderstood over the phone… you miss out on all of that body language that you get with a physical interaction with someone." In a chat with Square Mile, Slater also mentions anxiety as a child as she said acting was a "massive stress relief", adding: "I was a very anxious child." Instant connection Harriet and Jamie Roy (who plays Brian Fraser) had an instant connection before their on screen romance. In an interview with The Sunday Pos t, Harriet said: "I think the connection between us was quite instantaneous. The director said the chemistry between us was palpable, even through a Zoom screen. Chemistry is a weird one, I don't think you can fake it." And fans love to watch the pair on and off the screen as they take part in many interviews together. Commenting on Harriet's Instagram, one person said: "They are so perfect."
