Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz reveal plans to start a family amid rift with David and Victoria

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz reveal plans to start a family amid rift with David and Victoria

Daily Mail​2 days ago

Brooklyn Beckham is excited to build his own family with wife Nicola Peltz, as tensions continue to simmer between him and his parents.
During a new PDA-packed interview, the eldest son of Victoria and David gushes multiple times that he can see kids in his future, and that Nicola will be an 'amazing' mother.
Brooklyn and his wife Ni cola Peltz hinted at the ongoing unrest with Brooklyn's family in a newly released joint interview, before the feud imploded with David's 50th birthday celebrations.
And in a video released by Glamour Magazine, the couple can't hide their excitement about their long future together.
Taking on the magazine's Friend Test, the pair are tasked with looking into each other's eyes for two minutes and revealing what they see.
Romantic Brooklyn immediately gushes: 'I see us when we have our kids,' as Nicola adds: 'I see the future father of my kids.'
From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the
'The most important thing someone can do in their life is find that person for life because they'll really change everything and they'll make everything better,' Brooklyn later adds.
And revealing what he has learned from his four year relationship with Nicola, Brooklyn honed in on his wife's nurturing nature.
'We have four dogs and the way she treats them, I feel like you're gonna be the most amazing mum with our kids,' he told her.
As for Nicola she was keen to highlight her husband's 'pure, good intentions.'
'I like when you say be happy and follow your heart or go with your gut because sometimes I feel like your head is overthinking and your heart is super emotional but I feel like your gut is just that intuition that you just go with,' the US actress mused.
David Beckham, 50, and wife Victoria, 51, have become estranged from eldest child Brooklyn, 26, whose heiress wife, 30, has been blamed for the rift in the once tight-knit family.
And in the new magazine interview with Glamour Germany, conducted in April, the couple opened up about outside interference in their marriage and hinted at worsening relations with the Beckham clan, as they instead focused on the advice they'd received from Nicola's billionaire parents, Nelson and Claudia Peltz.
While Brooklyn appeared to be deliberately omitting mention of his family, as he shared a different meaning behind the name of his hot sauce, Cloud 23.
The aspiring chef's representative told last week how the number 23 was a 'warm nod' to David, who wore number 23 while playing for Real Madrid and LA Galaxy, inspired by NBA legend Michael Jordan, in a touching move that appeared to be an olive branch to his father.
However, in the new interview, Brooklyn failed to mention his father, simply stating: 'The 23 stands for our engagement date and my age back then.'
Elsewhere in the interview, he and Nicola also seemed to hint at interference in their relationship and the ongoing reports of the family feud.
When asked how they 'protect' their relationship in the spotlight, Brooklyn stated: 'Ignore the noise. Keep your head down, work hard, be kind. People are always going to talk. What matters is that we're happy together.'
While Brooklyn was present at the Victoria's 50th, both he and his wife failed to make an appearance at her 51st.
And while his younger brothers Romeo and Cruz took to social media to pay their birthday tributes to their parents, on both occasions Brooklyn stayed silent.
Brooklyn appeared to nail his loyalties to the mast when he posted an image on Instagram of himself and Nicola riding a motorbike, writing: 'My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you're the most amazing person I know xx me and you forever baby.'

Ginny and Georgia, season 3, review: a perfect example of the addictive Netflix formula

In the market for a soapy drama about a beautiful, whip-smart single mother and her clever yet dreadfully dull and endlessly ungrateful teenage daughter? Gilmore Girls might have already nailed that formula 20 years ago, but because television is just an infinite cycle of reboots, sequels, prequels or blatant rip-offs these days, it was only a matter of time until a streamer tried to replicate that show's schmaltzy charm. Enter Ginny & Georgia (Netflix). Among Netflix 's most popular original series, it's back for a third season that is once again filled with – deep breath – murder, small-town politics, mother-daughter bickering, sex, snogging and property porn. One imagines it came about when an executive marched into work the morning after his daughter forced him to watch Gilmore Girls and demanded a modern update, only crossed with Narcos, because American audiences can't get enough of crime. Georgia (Brianne Howey) is a Southern belle and single mother-of-two with a dark past: childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, poverty. A cycle of marrying rich then moving on, culminated, prior to the events of the first season, in her murdering her grope-happy husband (spoiler alert: he's not the only man she's sent to the pearly gates). Now, a few years on, her perfect new life in an idyllic New England town – complete with perfect New England man, in the form of local mayor Paul Randolph (Friday Night Lights' Scott Porter) – is starting to unravel. Season two ended with Georgia being escorted in handcuffs from her fairytale wedding to Paul , accused of murdering a neighbour's terminally ill husband. In her eyes, it was a mercy killing, though the rest of the town – and the law – doesn't see it that way. Most of season three's 10 episodes revolve around the court case, which turns into a media sensation. Howey is warm, funny and impossible not to root for, despite her penchant for killing off her exes. Flashback scenes patch together her traumatic past (her younger self affectingly portrayed by Nikki Roumel) and further elicit the audience's empathy: she might be a killer, but all of her victims were abusive or cruel. She might lie and steal, but it's only to provide for her family. The latter consists of teenage daughter Ginny (Antonia Gentry), possibly the most annoying TV character to have emerged in the past decade – and I've watched all of And Just Like That, so I'm unfortunately familiar with Che Diaz – due to her constant whining, whingeing and weeping. Fair enough, her mother's a criminal, her little brother (Diesel La Torraca) is painfully shy, troubled and keeps mauling other kids at school, but that's no excuse. Ginny and Georgia would benefit hugely from the showrunners omitting the Ginny half of the title. Season three ends, as expected, with Georgia walking free, having recruited her kids to frame an old nemesis for the crime. After bingeing all 10 hour-long episodes, you might find yourself in a rut of self-loathing: 'I know this isn't 'good',' you'll think, 'so why can't I stop watching?' Because it's the perfect example of the Netflix formula: soapy, cheesy fun led by unbelievably good-looking actors. It's not The Sopranos. It's not even Gilmore Girls. It's just shiny, addictive escapism.

7 Genius Ways Filmmakers Are Using iPads to Create Movies

What if the tool you carry in your bag every day could transform the way movies are made? For filmmakers, the iPad has become exactly that—a lightweight, portable powerhouse reshaping the creative process. Gone are the days when crafting a film required bulky equipment and endless stacks of paper. Today, directors, cinematographers, and editors are using iPads to storyboard scenes, control cameras remotely, and even simulate complex shots in 3D. It's not just a convenience; it's a revolution. The iPad is proving that some of the most new innovations in filmmaking don't come from massive rigs or high-end gear, but from a device that fits in your hands. What if the future of cinema is already sitting on your desk? In this guide Gary Scaife explore seven ingenious ways filmmakers are using iPads to elevate their craft. From streamlining script management to fostering seamless collaboration across teams, these tools are redefining what's possible on set and in post-production. You'll discover how apps like Procreate, LumaFusion, and are turning the iPad into a creative Swiss Army knife, empowering filmmakers to work faster, smarter, and more creatively. Whether you're a seasoned professional or an aspiring director, these insights might just change the way you think about your next project. After all, innovation often begins with reimagining the tools we already have. iPad Filmmaking in 2025 1. Enhancing Storyboarding with Digital Tools Storyboarding is a fundamental step in filmmaking, allowing you to visualize scenes before production begins. iPads simplify this process with powerful digital tools like Procreate and Storyboarder. These apps enable you to sketch, organize, and refine your ideas with precision. You can simulate camera movements, adjust layouts, and instantly share updates with your team. This streamlined approach not only saves time but also ensures a smoother transition from concept to execution. By integrating these tools into your workflow, you can bring your creative vision to life with greater clarity and efficiency. 2. Streamlining Script Management Managing scripts has become more efficient with the help of iPads. Apps like Final Draft Mobile and Celtx allow you to access, edit, and annotate scripts directly on your device. Whether you're highlighting key sections, making last-minute changes, or sharing updates with your team, these tools keep everyone synchronized in real-time. The ability to eliminate printed scripts reduces clutter and improves organization, especially during fast-paced productions. With instant access to updated scripts, you can ensure that every member of your team is on the same page, enhancing overall productivity. How Filmmakers Are Using iPads in 2025 Watch this video on YouTube. Below are more guides on iPad filmmaking from our extensive range of articles. 3. Transforming Remote Camera Control Remote camera control has become an essential feature in modern filmmaking, and iPads make this process more accessible than ever. Paired with apps like FiLMiC Pro or Blackmagic Camera Control, iPads allow you to adjust focus, exposure, and framing without needing to be physically near the camera. This is particularly valuable for complex setups or shooting in confined spaces. By using your iPad as a control hub, you gain precision and flexibility, making sure that every shot aligns with your creative vision. This capability is especially useful for directors and cinematographers looking to maintain control over intricate details. 4. Improving On-Set Organization Effective organization is critical to the success of any production, and iPads serve as a centralized hub for managing schedules, shot lists, and production notes. Apps like Shot Lister and StudioBinder enable you to track progress in real-time, making sure that every department stays aligned. With all essential information at your fingertips, you can quickly adapt to changes, address challenges, and maintain momentum throughout the shoot. This level of organization not only improves efficiency but also helps minimize delays, allowing you to focus on the creative aspects of filmmaking. 5. Facilitating Basic Video Editing While desktop systems remain the standard for full-scale editing, iPads are increasingly capable of handling basic video editing tasks. Apps like LumaFusion and Adobe Premiere Rush allow you to trim footage, add transitions, and apply color corrections directly on your device. This is particularly useful for reviewing dailies, creating rough cuts, or preparing quick previews for collaborators. The portability of iPads ensures that you can stay productive even when you're away from your primary editing setup. By incorporating these tools into your workflow, you can make quick adjustments and keep your project moving forward. 6. Advancing Pre-Visualization Pre-visualization, or pre-vis, is a crucial step in planning complex shots and sequences. iPads equipped with software like FrameForge or ShotPro enable you to create detailed 3D simulations of your scenes. These tools allow you to experiment with camera angles, lighting, and movement before stepping onto the set. By visualizing your ideas in advance, you can identify potential challenges and avoid costly mistakes. This proactive approach ensures a more efficient production process, giving you the confidence to execute your vision with precision. 7. Fostering Team Collaboration Collaboration is at the heart of filmmaking, and iPads excel at keeping teams connected. Apps like Slack, Trello, and assist seamless communication, whether you're sharing footage, exchanging notes, or coordinating tasks. With real-time updates and remote accessibility, iPads help bridge the gap between team members, making sure that everyone stays informed and aligned, regardless of their location. This enhanced connectivity fosters a more cohesive workflow, allowing your team to work together more effectively and bring your project to life.

NBA finals 2025 predictions: can the Pacers shock the Thunder? Our writers share their picks

The Thunder's path to victory is to continue to be the most fearsome defensive unit we've seen in recent years. They play an uber-aggressive, hyper-switchable form of defense that has suffocated opponents all year long. It means they give up a lot of fouls, but they also get away with a bunch and force turnovers more than anyone else in the league. Keep that up and, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander getting his customary 32 points a night, they won't be stopped. Ryan Baldi It may sound overly simplistic to say make shots, but if Oklahoma City don't end up hoisting the trophy when all is said and done, it will be because they, quite frankly, did not. They are the better team by every metric, with the better best player, better defense, and home court advantage. But their jump shot has been their only achilles. If shots fall, so will the confetti when all is said and done. Claire de Lune Set the tempo and harry Tyrese Haliburton. OKC thrive on dictating pace and forcing turnovers, the sort of pressure that Indiana's disciplined offense has yet to face at this intensity in the postseason. With waves of defenders like Lu Dort, Jalen Williams, Alex Caruso and Cason Wallace swarming the ball on the perimeter and inside, the Thunder can derail the Pacers' rhythm, cool their three-point barrage and win the possession battle. If they do that, SGA will take care of the rest. Bryan Armen Graham Play their game and take the Pacers out of theirs. The Thunder thrive in transition. If they can shut down Halliburton and Pascal Siakam and turn those defensive stops into easy buckets, they control the series. Their roster is so deep, so talented, so high-energy and so well-coached that you wonder if anything short of an act of god will deny them in their quest for the franchise's second championship. Andrew Lawrence Schedule Best-of-seven-games series. All times US eastern time (EDT). Thu 5 Jun Game 1: Pacers at Thunder, 8.30pm Sun 8 Jun Game 2: Pacers at Thunder, 8pm Wed 11 Jun Game 3: Thunder at Pacers, 8.30pm Fri 13 Jun Game 4: Thunder at Pacers, 8.30pm Mon 16 Jun Game 5: Pacers at Thunder, 8.30pm* Thu 19 Jun Game 6: Thunder at Pacers, 8.30pm* Sun 22 Jun Game 7: Pacers at Thunder, 8pm* *-if necessary How to watch In the US, all games will air on ABC. Streaming options include or the ABC app (with a participating TV provider login), as well as Hulu + Live TV, YouTube TV, fuboTV, DIRECTV STREAM, and Sling TV (via ESPN3 for ABC games). NBA League Pass offers replays, but live finals games are subject to blackout restrictions in the US. In the UK, the games will be available on TNT Sports and Discovery+. As for streaming, NBA League Pass will provide live and on-demand access to all Finals games without blackout restrictions. In Australia, the games will broadcast live on ESPN Australia. Kayo Sports and Foxtel Now will stream the games live, while NBA League Pass will offer live and on-demand access without blackout restrictions. They need to keep playing fast and take care of the ball. It's something they are remarkably good at: they have the third-lowest turnover rate in the league. But they're up against a turnover juggernaut and an outstanding transition defense. This could be an irresistible-force-v-immovable-object type of deal. RB While they're an indisputably great team, Pacers are, in many ways, a lesser version of their finals adversary, the Thunder. To win it all, their best players are going to have to bring it. They need sensational star performances from Siakam and Haliburton, and they need them nightly. That, and to not turn the ball over. That's something they're typically fantastic at, but that the Thunder are even more fantastic at disrupting. CDL Keep the ball moving and keep their composure. Indiana lead the playoffs in three-point shooting percentage and rarely turn the ball over: two trends need to preserve under OKC's relentless pressure. Haliburton's turnover-averse style will be tested like never before. If the Pacers can maintain their pace and exploit mismatches when the Thunder go small, Siakam's versatility could help tilt the series in their favor. BAG Get boards, something they struggled to do all season and could well struggle to do again against the Thunder's foreboding frontline. But if Siakam, Turner, Isaiah Jackson and Benedict Mathurin are willing to get scrappy in the paint, they might find that they actually have a toughness advantage over Oklahoma City's 'tall' men. AL Give Adam Silver a dose of truth serum and I'm sure he'll tell you he was rooting for the Knicks to get to the finals. This one probably isn't going to break any viewership records. But it is a fascinating match-up between two unique teams with a star of the league on either side. What's not to love? RB There's this weird, very online plague of the 'Couch GM' that seems to be constantly preoccupied with NBA ratings, as if they directly affect their own lives in any meaningful way. The truth is, they don't even affect the NBA itself much: a new $76bn television rights deal was just negotiated and expansion is coming. The league will be just fine, even if the casual fan doesn't find an Indianapolis v Oklahoma City final scintillating. True basketball diehards know this should be a wildly entertaining series. CDL Only if you think TV ratings matter more than basketball. This is a stylistic dream matchup between two fearless, homegrown teams. The NBA should celebrate franchises that built smartly and play joyfully. This series is a vindication of substance over star-chasing. BAG Only for the small-minded. Indiana have an NBA pedigree and a state basketball lore that would make for an epic underdog story and a great redemption story for Rick Carlisle, who may well have won his lone NBA title in his first stint with the Pacers if the Malice at the Palace hadn't happened. As for Oklahoma City, they certainly didn't have trouble attracting a crowd when Kevin Durant, Russell Westbrook and James Harden were leading the championship charge. (Sure, they were facing the Heatles, but still.) Even old-timers like me, who still feel like this slickly run operation should be in Seattle, won't be able to stay away just because we've been invested in this story for too long and need to see where it ends. AL Mark Daigneault was Coach of the Year in 2024 and probably should have won it again this year. But Rick Carlisle is a former Coach of the Year, too. And although his award came more than two decades ago, his work in Indiana has proven he remains one of the league's best. And Carlisle has one thing that Daigneault does not: championship experience. The edge goes to the old guy. RB This one is actually a push. Carlisle obviously has the more storied resumé and the championship pedigree, but Daigneault's Coach of the Year win last season was well deserved: he's done a bang-up job of getting the youngest roster in the NBA to buy into the egoless, defense-driven identity that made them a 68-win team on the doorstep of a championship. CDL Mark Daigneault, just. Carlisle may have the best total body of work of any coach that's not in the Hall of Fame (yet), but Daigneault's adaptability and calm control have guided OKC's young core beyond expectations. He's leaned into their defensive versatility and late-game composure: two areas that could tilt the margins in a long series. BAG Mark Daigneault. He who has the most best players has the advantage. AL Aaron Nesmith came into the league with a reputation as a deadly three-point shooter, only for his shooting to desert him in his first stop in Boston. With the Pacers, he's reinvented himself as a lockdown wing defender who plays with OKC-like intensity. And he came make shots now, too. RB Andrew Nembhard, the third year guard out of Gonzaga, is probably a name with which the average NBA fan is unfamiliar. But if the Pacers are able to pull off a shocking upset in this series, it will almost certainly be, in part, due to Nembhard's key contributions on the defensive end. The defensive pest had Jalen Brunson in the seventh circle of hell in the Eastern Conference finals, and he'll need to bring the same pressure against Gilgeous-Alexander for Indiana to have a chance in this series. CDL Jalen Williams. Everyone talks about his defense and playmaking, but he's due for a scoring breakout. With Indiana selling out on SGA, Williams will feast on open threes and scrambled closeouts. If he starts hitting at his usual clip (38.2% career from deep), OKC's offense becomes near unguardable. BAG Alex Caruso. Talk about a man who contains multitudes: Caruso doesn't just keep the OKC offense on pace when SGA is out of the game while providing elite defense. (His shackling of Nikola Jokić helped the Thunder pip Denver in the West semi-finals.) He's the veteran in the Thunder huddle with championship experience, winning his ring with LeBron's Lakers inside the Covid bubble in 2020. If at any point the young Thunder begin to doubt themselves, the Carushow will be where they turn to for succor. AL Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. It's the consistency. The foul-baiting can be grating but it's impossible not to admire how SGA appears to have figured out the game of basketball over the last couple of seasons. He has his spots and he knows exactly how to get to them. It's also nice to see a masterful offensive guard who isn't a complete zero on the other side of the ball. RB It is rare for a player to win both regular season and NBA finals MVP in the same season; it's only happened 15 times in league history. But Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, the slinky, shifty guard with shades of Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant in his deep bag, is about to do it. While Oklahoma City have a deep team, and both Jalen Williams and Chet Holmgren have gotten shine this postseason, if they win it all, it will be on the back of Gilgeous-Alexander, and he'll get rewarded accordingly. CDL Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. He's been the steadiest closer in the playoffs, turning midrange mastery and calm isolation into winning basketball. If Oklahoma City wins the title, it will be because SGA took over in crunch time and made the leap from All-NBA to undeniable superstar. BAG Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. He's been dominant all season, and his playoff level has yet to drop. In his two regular-season games against Indiana, he averaged 39 points (on 56% shooting), seven boards and eight assists against one turnover – total. Put simply: this is his year, and he won't be denied. AL Thunder in five. They've been utterly dominant all season. That's mostly been the case for the playoffs too, allowing for some Jokić magic in the second round. The Pacers have been a ton of fun to watch, have impressive depth and a rising star in Haliburton. But the Thunder are deeper, more talented and have the best player in the series – that's a recipe for a gentleman's sweep. RB Thunder in five. If the Pacers had drawn literally any other Western Conference foe, I would give them a better chance in this series. But unfortunately for Indiana, they drew, in my estimation, the far better version of themselves. Indiana is great at forcing turnovers: Oklahoma City do that better. Indiana take great care of the ball: OKC even moreso. The Thunder have the MVP, the better defense, the better bench. They have been the best team in the league at home this season, and they have home-court advantage in this series. While the Pacers' run to the finals has been impressive all the way, and I see them winning a game, I think the Thunder will make relatively quick work of them en route to a Larry O'Brien. CDL Pacers in seven. I picked the Thunder at the start of the playoffs (flex) and my inner Dean Oliver is still inclined to think their historically good metrics will see them through. But management wants someone to make the case for Indiana so here we go. The Pacers' blistering pace, surgical ball movement and deep rotation give them a real shot at disrupting Oklahoma City's rhythm. Haliburton's vision fuels an attractive, crowd-pleasing offense that doesn't rely on isolation or volume threes. If they can turn it into a track meet while taking care of the ball like they have all year, Indiana's chaos could outlast OKC's control. BAG Thunder in five. Again: they're loaded, high-energy, extremely well-coached and hungry as hell. Denver needed the world's best player to take OKC to seven games. While the Pacers have their virtues, and a bona fide go-to guy in Halliburton, they don't have enough to stop a team that seems like it has been on an inexorable march toward a championship since the season tipped off in October. For me, the question isn't if Thunder will win, but whether GM Sam Presti can keep this squad together long enough to make a dynastic run for the ages. AL
