Nicola Peltz's billionaire dad launched 'foul outburst at guest' at Brooklyn Beckham wedding
Nicola Peltz's father, Nelson Peltz, allegedly had an outburst during her wedding to Brooklyn Beckham which reportedly left the Beckham family shocked. Nicola Peltz's billionaire dad, Nelson, allegedly had an 'utterly foul outburst' at a guest during her 2022 wedding to Brooklyn Beckham, leaving David and Victoria Beckham reportedly horrified. According to insiders, Nelson became enraged when a guest used a toilet inside his £76 million Florida mansion instead of one of the portable toilets set up in the marquees on his grounds. While tension between the Beckhams and Brooklyn and Nicola have surfaced more recently, sources suggest the strain began around the time of the wedding, the Mirror reports. Following the lavish Florida ceremony, Nicola claimed her mother-in-law, Victoria, offered to design her wedding dress but then ignored her for days - ultimately backing out and saying her fashion studio couldn't actually make the gown, leaving Nicola scrambling at the last minute. The actress ended up wearing a stunning couture Valentino dress when she and Brooklyn married three years ago. However, she claims the initial plan was for her to wear a gown designed by Brooklyn's mum Victoria. New claims have emerged about the drama surrounding Brooklyn and Nicola's lavish wedding, with reports suggesting Brooklyn is 'making it clear that the Peltzes are his priority'. Commenting on Nelson's reported outburst, an insider told MailOnline: "The whole Beckham family found Nelson utterly foul at the wedding. They didn't particularly like him before but they really didn't afterwards." According to the source, despite there being "an atmosphere," the Beckham family were "having a lovely time enjoying their son's big day." The former aspiring photographer is also said to be "aware of the strained relations between his parents and Nelson." A source close to Brooklyn pushed back against the claims, telling the Mirror:"It's sad that Brooklyn's family's public relations machine remains in overdrive, unnecessarily churning out almost daily, one sided, negative and baseless attacks on their son and daughter in law and expecting that would be no consequences to the relationship." This comes after Brooklyn paid tribute to his socialite father-in-law, Nelson, with a simple birthday message on social media. Brooklyn has been at the centre of a family feud with the Beckhams, noticeably skipping several key family events. Fans were quick to notice how the 26-year-old was absent from mum Victoria's 51st birthday and also missed his dad David's milestone 50th birthday celebrations in both London and Paris. The star also failed to publicly acknowledge his father's recent knighthood in the King's Birthday Honours List this month. However, Brooklyn continues to share affectionate tribute to his wife, Nicola, on social media. In one recent post, he wrote that he would "always choose her." On her dad's birthday, he even took to his Instagram stories to share a photo of himself, Nicola and Nelson posing together for the camera as he wished him a happy birthday. Along with the simple caption: "Happy birthday, Nelson, we love you."

Will AI eat the advertising industry?
Mark Zuckerberg recently shook the advertising world with Meta's plans to allow brands to use AI to generate targeted advertisements on Facebook and Instagram. Importantly, no ad agency would be involved in the process. So is the writing on the wall for the traditional advertising industry? Will the next viral video campaign or earworm jingle be the brainchild of a computer, rather than the fabled advertising creatives celebrated in the TV show Mad Men? And if so, what lessons are there for other creative industries? Hosts: Ethan Wu and Mike Bird. Guests: Sir Martin Sorrell, founder of WPP and S4Capital; Brian Wieser, CEO of Madison and Wall; and The Economist's media editor Tom Wainwright.
