Inside Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's vow renewals without his family amid feud
David and Victoria were absent from the celebrations amid reports of a family feud Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have renewed their vows three years after getting married, without any of his family present. Nicola's billionaire dad, Nelson Peltz, took centre stage with a special role in the ceremony, but in stark contrast, Brooklyn's parents, David and Victoria, were notable absent. The vow renewal took place at Peltz's dad's estate in Bedford, Westchester County. "This day meant so much to us," Peltz wrote on Instagram, sharing romantic photographs from their day. They were seen posing on the balcony together, as well as walking through a garden path under an arch of trees. Brooklyn has hailed his vow renewal as a "beautiful" day and he said his new vows were longer than his original ones that he has tattooed. He told 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. It definitely shapes you as a person. Yeah, it was really, really cute. It was really fun." Beckham feud and response None of the Beckham family — including siblings Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, Harper, 14 — were present at the vow renewal celebrations. So far as of Tuesday morning, none of the Beckhams have liked or commented on any of the Instagram posts shared. It was reported the famous family found out about the vow renewals when they read it online. Meanwhile, the Beckham family have been cruising the French seas on a £16m luxury yacht. There have been reports of a family feud since May when Brooklyn and Nicola were missing from David's 50th birthday party. Brooklyn didn't publicly congratulate his dad on his knighthood on social media. The aspiring chef did send a public birthday message to his sister Harper on her 14th birthday and to his grandmother on hers. Yahoo UK has reached out to Brooklyn Beckham, Nicola Peltz, David and Victoria Beckham's representatives for comment. Nicola Peltz's parents take centre stage Nicola and Brooklyn, who have been together since October 2019, gave her dad a key part in the day as he officiated the service. Photographs showed the proud billionaire stood between smiling Nicola and Brooklyn as they exchanged their vows again. White roses bloomed behind them and it looked as if Nicola had simply picked one of them for her bouquet. It was believed Brooklyn's dad David acted as Master of Ceremonies at their first wedding in 2022. Nicola chose to re-wear her mum Claudia's reworked wedding dress for the special day. The actor shared photographs side-by-side of her wearing her mum's dress and a photograph from her parents' wedding. When Brooklyn and Nicola got married the first time, there were reports Nicola had turned down Victoria designing her dress for her. The first time round the actor wore a Valentino gown. The couple also posed with all of Nicola's family at the vow renewal ceremony. Nicola and Brooklyn's after party Changing for the evening, Nicola looked stunning in a sheer pale blue dress decorated with butterflies. Guests included Georgina Chapman and her partner Adrien Brody, designer Alexander Wang, songwriter Bryant Barnes and more. The vow renewal wedding breakfast was extravagant. It included an appetiser of summer heirloom tomatoes, basil infused burrata served with a parmesan breadstick. Guests enjoyed herb roasted halibut, roasted heirloom tomato confit and prime aged filet mingnon, citrus infused hollandaise. The dual entree was served with chargrilled summer vegetables and wild rice pilaf with roasted shallots. For dessert, they sampled seasonal berries and whipped vanilla bean cream.

Billionaire Tyler Perry just revealed why he cut off his family financially — refused to be ‘welfare.' Do you agree?
Tyler Perry is no stranger to making tough decisions. The actor, director and producer, best known for his "Madea" franchise, has strategically created a media empire that turned him into a billionaire, according to Forbes. But in a recent interview that's making waves online, the 55-year-old entrepreneur revealed that he had to make tough decisions on the personal front too, including financially cutting off some members of his family. Don't miss Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 6 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Robert Kiyosaki warns of a 'Greater Depression' coming to the US — with millions of Americans going poor. But he says these 2 'easy-money' assets will bring in 'great wealth'. How to get in now '[My aunt] said she wanted a job. She would always call asking for money. I said, 'Okay,' I would send her the money,' Perry explained on an episode of Den of Kings on YouTube. 'But then I was like, 'Listen, I want to help you. I want to help you build this thing, not be welfare to you. So, let me give you a job.'' When his aunt failed to show up for work, he said he had no choice but to fire her and cut her off financially. 'You want me to hand you the money, but you don't want to work for it,' he said. 'See, that doesn't work for me.' Perry's decision may seem extreme, but it's one many Americans can relate to — especially those navigating the complexities of financial boundaries with family. Family welfare You don't have to be a billionaire for your family to expect some financial assistance from you. In fact, lending or giving money to people in your social network is surprisingly common. According to community finance platform SoLo's 2025 Cash Poor Report, 43% of people have borrowed money from friends or family members over the past year. Perhaps the most common form of family financial support is from parents to adult children. It turns out that 46% of Gen Z Americans (ages 18 to 27) rely on financial assistance from parents and family, according to new research from Bank of America's Better Money Habits team. Many of these financial arrangements end badly. A survey by found that 42% of people who loaned money to their friends and family didn't get paid back and roughly a quarter of these lenders say the loan damaged their relationship with the borrower. With this in mind, avoiding such loans could be the key to a healthy and durable relationship with everyone in your circle. However, if you feel compelled to offer some financial assistance to a loved one in desperate need, make sure you set clear expectations to preserve the relationship and your own financial security.

Setting clear boundaries Whether you're borrowing or lending money to a loved one, setting expectations upfront can help you both avoid damage to the relationship. The first step, perhaps, is to never offer more than you can afford. "Ask yourself: Am I really in a position to be gifting money right now?," Wendy De La Rosa, an assistant professor at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, told NPR. If you believe your friend or family member is asking for too much, politely turn them down and honestly explain the impact this loan or gift could have on your own financial stability. If you can afford it, it may be better to offer the money as a gift rather than a loan. This minimizes the pressure on the borrower and could help you sustain the relationship. However, regardless of whether your assistance is in the form of a loan or a gift, formalize the arrangement in a written document. This is because loans and gifts between friends and family can have tax implications. Gifting more than $19,000 per person per year could make you, not the receiver, subject to the federal gift tax. There are higher limits for married couples and lifetime limits for all individuals that you need to be aware of. A written document with all the details should help you and the receiver plan for these tax implications and stay on the same page about the arrangement to avoid disagreements in the future.
