Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz hire Meghan Markle's lawyer amid Beckham family rift
Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have reportedly hired Jenny Afia, the high-profile lawyer known for representing Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, amid ongoing rumors of a family rift with the Beckhams.
The couple has retained Afia of the UK-based Schillings law firm to assist with reputation management, according to a report published by The Mail on Sunday on May 31, 2025.
Jenny Afia gained public attention for her legal work with Meghan Markle during the Duchess of Sussex's successful 2021 lawsuit against the publishers of the Mail on Sunday over privacy and copyright infringement. She has also represented Prince Harry in his appeal to the UK High Court to restore his publicly funded security, which was ultimately denied.
Brooklyn, the eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, and his wife Nicola have been at the center of intense media speculation regarding strained ties with the Beckham family. While neither party has confirmed the alleged rift, their decision to hire Afia signals a serious move to manage their public image and combat growing rumors.
Schillings is a well-known London firm specializing in privacy, defamation, and reputation defense for high-profile clients. The couple's association with the firm suggests they may be preparing to take legal steps if necessary.
As the story continues to unfold, fans and media alike are watching closely to see if any formal statements or legal actions follow from either side of the Beckham family.

Kylie Jenner reveals plastic surgery truth years after denying rumors
Kylie Jenner has confirmed the exact details of her breast augmentation after a viral TikTok fan request, two years after publicly admitting to having the procedure. The 27-year-old reality star responded to influencer Rachel Leary, who praised Kylie's 'perfect, natural boob job' and asked for specifics. In a surprising and candid reply, Jenner commented: '445 cc, moderate profile, half under the muscle!!!!! silicone!!! garth fisher!!! hope this helps lol.' The response quickly gained traction as fans applauded the star's transparency. Kylie originally revealed her surgery in a 2023 episode of The Kardashians, admitting she underwent the procedure at 19, just before the birth of her daughter, Stormi. At the time, she expressed regret over the decision, saying, 'I had beautiful breasts… I wish I never got them done.' The surgeon behind her transformation is Dr. Garth Fisher, a Beverly Hills-based plastic surgeon known for working with multiple Kardashian-Jenner family members. His client list includes Kris Jenner, Kourtney Kardashian, and Khloe Kardashian. Kylie's openness marks a shift from earlier denials. Over the years, she credited her changing body to weight gain, her menstrual cycle, and motherhood. However, her latest revelation confirms long-held fan suspicions dating back to 2015. Fans praised Jenner not only for her beauty but also for her honesty. Her response sheds light on the growing demand for transparency around cosmetic surgery, especially among celebrities with massive influence on beauty standards. The moment has reignited online discussions around plastic surgery and body image, particularly for young women influenced by celebrity aesthetics.

Dolly Parton reportedly snubbed Meghan Markle by declining offer to appear on duchess' Netflix show
Dolly Parton reportedly declined an invitation to appear on Meghan Markle's Netflix series With Love, Meghan, according to commentary shared on a recent episode of The Nerve with Maureen Callahan. Celebrity commentator Kinsey Schofield alleged the decision was made to avoid any potential risk to Parton's brand and public image. 'Her team was livid,' Schofield claimed, stating that they viewed the invite as an attempt by Markle to borrow credibility in the lifestyle space where Parton is already well-established. 'They knew that this ask was just to give Meghan Markle credibility in this lifestyle space, a space that Dolly does have a lot of credibility in,' she added. Parton has built a longstanding reputation not just in country music but in lifestyle branding, with successful ventures in food, beauty, and publishing. Schofield noted that Parton's team viewed the request as strategic positioning, saying they believed 'Meghan was trying to take advantage of her popularity.' The show With Love, Meghan, launched on Netflix in March and features Markle exploring lifestyle topics from wellness to baking, including guest appearances from celebrities like Mindy Kaling and Abigail Spencer. Despite mixed reviews, the series was renewed for a second season.
