Nicola Peltz 'excited' as she shares major career update amid family rift rumours

Nicola Peltz has shared her excitement over the latest project in her acting career, which comes after her last film role was met with pride from her mother-in-law Victoria Beckham
Actor Nicola Peltz has confirmed the latest project in her career. She's expressed excitement over the opportunity, which is said to be giving her more experience behind the camera, as well as another starring role on screen.

Nicola, 30, has appeared in several films over the years, including Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014). It was announced last week that she will star in thriller Pretty Ugly and also serve as an executive producer, with it understood to be the first time she's held that position on a film.

It was reported just days ago that Nicola will star alongside Jazzy De Lisser and Mary Stuart Masterson in the "murder mystery". The film is said to be written and directed by Erica Dunton, who has previously worked on TV shows such as Ted Lasso, the Summer I Turned Pretty and Outer Banks.

The news was shared by Deadline and the outlet said that the film, set in North Carolina, centres on a mother and daughter, played by Nicola's co-stars. Their relationship "unravels" with the return of a "provocative makeup influencer," played by Nicola, amid a murder in the area.
Her co-star Mary, 59, whose previous credits include Fried Green Tomatoes (1991), posted about the project following the report about it. Her post on Instagram later prompted reaction from Nicola, who shared her excitement.

Mary wrote yesterday: "I'm slow to post these things, but I am so proud to be a part of this film. I had a (rather intense) ball down in Wilmington, NC with the most amazing crew and cast under the truly inspiring direction of Erica Dunton."
Further teasing over the upcoming film, Mary added: "I will have more to say and share about this magical experience later on… you are not going to believe what my movie daughter [Jazzy] and her new friend [Nicola] get up to…"

Her co-star Nicola has since reacted. She wrote beside a pink heart emoji in the comments section this morning: "Mary you're so incredible I'm so excited for this." She also shared Mary's post on her Instagram Story earlier today.
Nicola's last feature film appearance was in Lola (2024), which she also wrote and directed. The film, which marked her directorial debut, was released in February last year and she was supported by some of her in-laws at the launch.
At the premiere in Los Angeles, she was seen cosying up to her mother-in-law Victoria Beckham, 51. Nicola's husband Brooklyn Beckham, 26, and his brother Cruz Beckham, 20, were also in attendance at the special occasion.

Nicola and her mother-in-law were even seen dancing together at an apparent after-party as the Spice Girls ' Wannabe played. And ahead of the film's release, Victoria said she "could not be more proud" of her daughter-in-law.
Her support suggested that she was on good terms with Nicola, following previous rumours of tension in their relationship. There's since been renewed speculation about the family, with it rumoured that there's now a rift between Brooklyn and his parents Victoria and David Beckham, 50.

Brooklyn is said to have grown close to his in-laws and it's been claimed that he "doesn't really feel like he fits into" his own family. A source told the Mirror recently: "He just doesn't feel his family have treated Nicola well and now that he's grown so close to her family in the States, he doesn't really feel like he fits into the Beckham family right now."
Despite ongoing speculation about their relationship with his parents, a source suggested to the Mirror last month that Brooklyn and Nicola were stronger than ever. They were described as a young couple "enjoying their lives together".

Brooklyn Beckham makes defiant trip to UK with wife Nicola as family jet abroad

The ongoing feud between Brooklyn Beckham and the rest of his family has been a source of speculation among fans for months, but the 26-year-old and his wife remain defiant with a trip to England Amid the fallout of a ongoing family feud, the formerly tight-knit Beckhams are in tatters, with estranged son Brooklyn remaining defiant as he posts England holiday photos with his wife Nicola Peltz. But while the couple are soaking up the English countryside, the rest of the Beckhams are in the south of France, holidaying as family. ‌ Brooklyn, 26, and his wife Nicola, 30, looked every inch the loved-up couple during their trip to the UK, as they took a leisurely stroll through a picturesque garden. They can be seen enjoying some peaceful time away from the city as they wandered through the grounds. ‌ Nicola took a candid photo of her husband by a quaint garden well, while they both opted for casual outfits for their trip. One sweet photo shows Brooklyn kissing Nicola as they pose in front of a mirror. ‌ While Brooklyn and Nicola made their way to the UK, the rest of the Beckhams jetted off to France. Romeo Beckham, 22, and his sister Harper, 14, stepped out for a quiet dinner in St Tropez on Friday night. In an ironic turn of events, their estranged brother and his wife had been spotted out in the same place just last week. But despite the apparent radio silence between Brooklyn and his parents, he and Nicola did reach out to Harper recently. ‌ To mark the teen's birthday at the start of July, he posted a photo of himself and Nicola, alongside his little sister on Instagram. Writing on the Stories post, he said: "Happy birthday harper we love u x," and tagged his wife. Actress and socialite Nicola, 30, reshared the post on her own Story. Brooklyn was 12 when his youngest sibling was born. ‌ He and Harper have been close over the years, but there was said to be tension from those close to the family who were worried he wouldn't reach out at all amid the family feud. Sources shared their concerns after Brooklyn and Nicola failed to see Harper when they visited London in May to film an advert. The location for the shoot was just over a mile from the family home. The fears came after Brooklyn had been absent from a number of other recent family milestones. After failing to attend any of dad David's 50th celebrations, he also publicly blanked the former footballer's proud moment as it was announced he was being knighted. Brooklyn's younger brothers, Romeo and Cruz, also wished their sister a happy birthday on social media, alongside her parents David and Victoria. Brooklyn did wish David's mum Sandra happy birthday, despite ignoring both of his parents' big days. However, he didn't do the same for Victoria's dad Tony back in May. ‌ Earlier this month, Nicola Peltz, 30, hit back at claims she is "controlling" husband Brooklyn after posting photos from a party with some friends. While some fans commented to share well wishes over the occasion, others criticised Nicola and Brooklyn. One included the suggestion that Nicola is to blame for the rumoured rift between her husband and his parents. Jumping to Nicola's defence, some fans replied to the comments on the post, which included photos of Brooklyn beside Nelson. One comment, in which it was suggested that Brooklyn can make his own decisions, was liked by Nicola.

My hubby transformed our shed into a ‘dream' nail salon – bargains from Homebase & IKEA made it look so glam on a budget

Plus, scroll down for rules on converting sheds GLOSS BOSS My hubby transformed our shed into a 'dream' nail salon – bargains from Homebase & IKEA made it look so glam on a budget Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A WOMAN has revealed that her husband transformed a shell of a shed into a glamorous nail salon. Now, Nicola Vacher-Smith, who is the founder of Sanctuary Twelve, a garden studio located in Blyth, Northumberland, now just has to walk a few steps down her garden to get to work. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 A nail technician has revealed a before and after look of her garden studio Credit: TikTok/@nicolavachersmith 2 What was once a shell of a shed is now a fully functioning beauty space - and we think it looks fabulous Credit: TikTok/@nicolavachersmith Not only does she have a gorgeous space to welcome clients into, but according to the nail technician and beauty therapist, it is a very 'relaxing' and 'calm' environment. Nicola, who is from Newcastle, took to social media to share a step-by-step process of her shed renovation, leaving many open-mouthed. Alongside the post, Nicola confirmed that her husband, who she described as her 'best friend,' 'biggest supporter' and even 'content model', did all of the work himself, as she beamed: 'Husband appreciation post.' What was once an empty shed has since been given a mega makeover and now is a jaw-dropping beauty salon. And not only do people think it looks 'beautiful' but others have said it is their 'dream' to have something similar in their garden. In the short clip, we saw Nicola's husband take on the hefty DIY job, as he first started off by insulating the space. Following this he then plastered and painted the walls. But that wasn't all - to make the shed super trendy, he then added panelling too. Thrilled with her new at-home salon, Nicola beamed: 'From the shell of a shed to a fully functioning salon, I'm obsessed!!' Reflecting on the shed's new look, she also added: 'What a transformation it is.' I was sick of paying rent so moved into a shed at the bottom of my garden Nicola later confirmed that she got the 9.5ft by 13ft shed from Northern Garden Sheds, a company based in Blaydon-on-Tyne. While she went local for her natural oak flooring, for the paint colours, her man used Dulux paint in the shade Caramel Sand 5 on the panelling and the Peace shade from Homebase's own range, on the walls. Do I need planning permission to convert my shed? CONVERTING an existing shed or outbuilding into a self-contained living space will usually require you apply for planning permission. However, there is a "loophole" Brits can use to convert outbuildings into a tiny home without permission. Planning expert Martin Gaine from Just Planning warned the conversion process is far easier than you may think. Speaking to The Sun, the Chartered Town Planner of 14 years' experience explained: "An outbuilding can be built using 'permitted development rights', meaning it does not need planning permission. "As long as you comply with the various restrictions and conditions." One of these is that the outbuilding can only be used for something 'ancillary' to your main living accommodation - examples include storage, a gym or a pool room. If the outbuilding is existing, converting it then into primary living accommodation IS allowed. Martin explained: "This is because internal changes to an existing building are not considered to be development at all under the Town and Country Planning Act. But like anything, there is one catch. The new living accommodation must still have some connection with your use of the main house. For instance, if your gran is living out there, she must still come into the house to eat. To accessorise the space, she nabbed her sideboard and chair from Daals and got her desk and lamp from IKEA. She also got a mirror and a stand from B&M, as well as a gorgeous vase from TK Maxx. Social media users react Nicola's TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @nicolavachersmith, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 436,900 views. Not only this, but it's also amassed 49,000 likes, 192 comments and 6,296 saves. It looks absolutely gorgeous TikTok user Social media users were incredibly impressed by Nicola's garden studio and many eagerly raced to the comments to express this. One person said: 'This is stunning.' Another added: 'This is my dream.' A third commented: 'This is beautiful.' Meanwhile, someone else beamed: 'It looks absolutely gorgeous.'
