What REALLY happened at Brooklyn Beckham's wedding to Nicola after explosive claim Posh stole 1st dance & made bride cry
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) ACCORDING to tradition, a bride's wedding day is all about the bride. Not so for Nicola Peltz, who believes she was upstaged by another woman — Victoria Beckham, the mother of her husband. 7 Brooklyn Beckham with wife Nicola Peltz Credit: Getty 7 Victoria enters the reception with David after the wedding Credit: Mega 7 Brooklyn and Nicola celebrate their first anniversary in 2023 with David and Victoria 7 Nicola and Brooklyn at their wedding Credit: German Larkin / Vogue In yet another astonishing new twist to the ongoing family saga, friends of the American actress claim she burst into tears on her wedding day after being made to play second fiddle to the Spice Girl. The latest chapter in the story centres on US singer Marc Anthony, who is reported to have sung to Victoria at the reception, rather than the bride, and added insult to injury by calling Posh 'the most beautiful woman in the room'. Friends of the Beckham clan furiously deny the accusations — which come three years after the Vogue-covered event — accusing Nicola of being 'spoiled' and 'having a tantrum'. Only one thing is for certain, then: the divide between the two families has never been wider. Last night a source who has worked with both Brooklyn and the Beckhams said: 'This whole situation is quite unprecedented, and no-one could have foretold things would get this bad, or this toxic — for toxic is what it is. 'While Nicola and Brooklyn's pals claim one thing, David and Victoria's say quite another — so somewhere along the line, someone is obfuscating. 'Or perhaps another more palatable explanation is, as David's hero the late Queen might say, recollections may vary. 'Unquestionably that wedding day — and the six-month build-up — was the tipping point for all that has followed. Mean Girls vibes 'So from Nicola's perspective, it's no wonder she keeps bringing it up — what was meant to be the most special day of her life has been overtaken by events beyond her control. 'Her friends won't let that go and get very defensive of her. Beckhams fear there's no way back with Brooklyn after his latest move in bitter feud 'drove dagger through their hearts' 'For her part, Victoria, as a woman's woman, insists she would never deliberately derail her son's big day. 'It is all very sad, and right now I cannot see things ever being the way they were between Brooklyn and his parents.' The second — and perhaps irreversible — tipping point came earlier this month, in what was a week of celebrations for David's 50th birthday. His eldest son attended none of them. Nor, obviously, did his 30-year-old wife, who the Beckham camp blame for tearing apart their family. Puzzlingly, the two families' versions of events differ wildly. Brooklyn has told pals he texted his dad to meet him for a quiet coffee behind closed doors, but was rebuffed. While Nicola and Brooklyn's pals claim one thing, David and Victoria's say quite another – so somewhere along the line, someone is obfuscating And while he claims the row started over brother Romeo's girlfriend of six months — who previously dated Brooklyn — the Beckhams claim Nicola is the true catalyst. She has been said to give off 'Mean Girls' vibes — a reference to the cult 2004 film — with the implication that she is 'spoilt' and 'entitled', and has dragged Brooklyn away from his family. Nicola, for her part, says she is simply supporting her husband, but is being portrayed 'cruelly'. 'Naturally it's always the woman who gets the blame,' laments one friend Stateside. How deeply unseemly this he-said/she-said battle must be for David, who recently graced the cover of Time magazine for his charitable endeavours. Certainly it is not on brand for the Beckhams, a couple who have steadfastly cemented themselves — the royals notwithstanding — as Britain's most famous family. 7 Singer Marc Anthony and wife Nadia Ferreira at the wedding in April 2022, where he is said to have sung to Victoria instead of the bride Credit: Eroteme 7 A source claimed a room full of guests saw Nicola run off in tears after seeing Victoria awkwardly dancing with Brooklyn Credit: German Larkin / Vogue In fact that is something they have done so well — thanks to endless endorsement deals, Becks's Inter Miami franchise, his 'n' hers Netflix documentary deals and Victoria's beauty business (which is now turning over a healthy profit) — that they are in the latest Sunday Times Rich List with a combined fortune of £500million. And I wouldn't bet against them being billionaires by the time the former England midfielder is 55. (Although it might pain them to note, this is still less than half of Nicola's tycoon dad Nelson's estimated personal fortune). 'Brand', though, is a negative term for Nicola and Brooklyn. Her camp has briefed US periodicals suggesting that Posh 'n' Becks are more concerned with keeping up appearances — and maintaining the family brand — than making things up with their boy. They have labelled the Beckhams' attempts to reach out to Brooklyn — posting Instagram stories tagging him — as 'performative'. Showbiz website TMZ quoted 'sources familiar with the situation' as saying the young couple 'have made themselves available for months and months to discuss all of the ongoing drama', but that David and Victoria refuse to talk with Nicola around 'because she always talks back to them and stands up for Brooklyn'. The Transformers actress believes she has always supported the Beckhams by attending Victoria's fashion shows and promoting her products on social media — but doesn't get the same treatment in return. 7 Brooklyn and Nicola, seen in silhouette having their first kiss as a married couple Credit: Mega For instance, the website claims, Nicola asked Victoria to promote her dog rescue centre, Yogi's House, during the LA wildfires in January, but Victoria apparently blamed her social media co-ordinator, saying: 'She's not posting content right now.' Yet pals of the Beckhams would likely argue that only last February Victoria flew to LA to support Nicola on the red carpet of her movie, Lola — even dressing her in a bespoke VB outfit. Of course, that £1,190 co-ord outfit came back to haunt Nicola last month when Victoria appeared to goad her daughter-in-law, wearing the exact same thing — sparking a 'who wore it better' debate on social media. So what is the truth? Well, performative or not, all four protagonists still follow one another on Instagram. But hey, that's showbiz! And now the wedding has been wheeled out again, with those reports alleging Nicola cried on her wedding day. The source told People magazine: 'Marc Anthony, who is a friend of the Beckhams, offered to perform as a gift at the wedding. 'Before the song began, Marc asked Brooklyn to come to the stage, and then announced, 'The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up . . . Victoria Beckham!'' It was such a jaw-dropping moment that it left the whole room in absolute shock. You could hear a pin drop Source A second source said the entire room went silent after Victoria's name was called instead of the bride's, and added: 'It was such a jaw-dropping moment that it left the whole room in absolute shock. You could hear a pin drop.' After seeing Victoria awkwardly dancing with his mother, Nicola is said to have burst into tears. Nonsense, sigh Victoria's pals. They claim the couple danced to Elvis after marrying — long before Victoria danced with Brooklyn. One says: 'At the reception there were the traditional speeches, then the happy couple had their first dance. In fact they had two dances. 'After this, Nicola had a dance with her father Nelson, again entirely traditional for the bride to dance with Dad, and at this point normally the groom would dance with his mum. "For whatever reason, that didn't happen. Much later, as a gift to the couple, Marc Anthony performed a few songs. 'Everyone got up to dance and as part of this he pulled his best friends David and Victoria up on stage, and then grabbed Brooklyn to dance with his mum, and Harper danced with David. 'Cruz also got up with Eva Longoria — it was a fun family moment and one dance. No-one realised in the moment that Nicola was upset.' Whatever the truth — and tellingly the Beckhams didn't wish Nicola and Brooklyn a happy anniversary last month, either privately or publicly — the quartet won't be playing happy families any time soon.

Lindsay Lohan opens up about leaving Hollywood stress behind by moving to Dubai
Lindsay Lohan, after enduring intense scrutiny in Hollywood, relocated to Dubai in 2014 and found peace as a wife and mother. Featured in Elle's Summer Issue, she discusses prioritizing family, setting boundaries, and managing her public image through social media. Lohan also shares her skincare routine, emphasizing healthy habits and self-care for maintaining her youthful glow. After nearly three decades in the spotlight, Lindsay Lohan left the hectic pace of Hollywood behind, relocating from Los Angeles to Dubai in 2014. Since then, the "Mean Girls" star, now 38, has embraced life as a wife and mother—and found a newfound sense of peace. Lohan, featured on the cover of Elle's 2025 Summer Issue, opened up about her life abroad and the personal and professional growth she's experienced since relocating. Lohan shared that life in Los Angeles can be stressful, even during simple moments like taking her son to the park, where she constantly worries about being watched or photographed. In contrast, she finds New York much more peaceful and private, with people minding their own business and a different, more relaxed energy. She prefers spending her downtime in New York over Los Angeles. Lohan shares her 1-year-old son, Luai, with husband Bader Shammas. Lohan appreciates the spaciousness of Los Angeles, but she finds that Dubai offers all the benefits she values—privacy, peace, and plenty of space—without the usual worries. In Dubai, she feels safe and able to enjoy a sense of calm that eludes her in other cities. Starting her career at just three years old, Lohan rose to fame with the 1998 remake of The Parent Trap, quickly thrust into the intense spotlight of Hollywood. Constant public scrutiny eventually took its toll, leading the Freaky Friday star to leave it all behind and relocate to Dubai in 2014. Lindsay Lohan has expressed frustration that much of her early work was overshadowed by paparazzi attention and media scrutiny, a phase she wishes hadn't affected her career. Lindsay Lohan explained that the intense media focus on her personal life often overshadowed her professional work, which made her want to step away and disappear, knowing that without a scandal, the spotlight wouldn't stay on her career alone. In 2022, Lindsay Lohan discussed how social media has empowered her to take control of her own story—a stark contrast to her early career days when paparazzi shaped public perception without her input. She expressed admiration for today's artists who can define their own identities online, admitting she's a bit envious since she didn't have that opportunity. Aware of the fast-paced digital world, she carefully vets everything before posting, often consulting others to ensure her message is just right. Lohan emphasized the importance of taking public opinions with a grain of salt and staying true to oneself. She advised slowing down amid the fast pace of today's world, reminding that people often move too quickly and that it's important to take a moment to pause and relax. After relocating to Dubai, Lohan discovered the importance of setting boundaries by being selective about her work. Since returning to films, including starring with Jamie Lee Curtis in Freakier Friday, she's found that putting herself first greatly improves her well-being. Lohan shared that both she and Jamie Lee Curtis value family deeply, and Jamie has taught her the importance of prioritizing self-care—because without taking care of yourself first, it's hard to support others. L ohan shared that she loves having a routine and sticking to schedules. Her mornings typically include journaling, sipping green tea, breakfast with her son, and a Pilates session she makes sure to fit in. Despite her busy days, family remains her top priority—her husband, son, and herself. She emphasized the importance of balance and routine, especially as a parent, explaining that she adapts her life around her child's schedule. However, Lohan is no stranger to criticism, as fame often brings intense scrutiny, particularly regarding her appearance. In the Elle interview, Lohan dismissed rumors about having a facelift and revealed the real secrets behind her glowing skin. She shared that she follows a dedicated skincare routine and a healthy diet, including a daily juice made of carrot, ginger, lemon, olive oil, and apple. She also drinks plenty of green tea and water and loves adding pickled beets to almost everything. Lohan is currently experimenting with new serums to maintain her skin's glow. Lohan also shared her skincare habits, including splashing ice-cold water on her face each morning, drinking lemon juice, and adding chia seeds to her water. She uses eye patches daily and is interested in laser treatments. After trying Morpheus8 microneedling once, she realized her skin had become too sensitive, especially after having her son. This prompted her to overhaul her routine and diet, including allergy tests that helped her eliminate triggers, leading to noticeable improvements in her skin.

Lindsay Lohan shares struggles with LA after moving to Dubai to escape Hollywood stress
After nearly 30 years in the spotlight, Lindsay Lohan took a step back from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood and uprooted her life from Los Angeles to Dubai in 2014. Since then, the "Mean Girls" actress, 38, has not only become a wife and a mother, she has found peace within herself. Lohan, who appears on the cover of Elle's 2025 Summer Issue, opened up about her life overseas and what she's learned about herself, both personally and professionally, since making the move. "It's hard in L.A. Even taking my son to the park in L.A., I get stressed. I'm like, 'Are there cameras?' In New York, there's no worry; no one bothers us," said Lohan, who shares 1-year-old son Luai with husband Bader Shammas. "Everyone has their own thing going on. There's a different kind of energy in New York. I'd rather have downtime in New York than I would in L.A." "But the nice thing about L.A. is, I like space [and you get that here]. But I'm thinking as I'm saying this, the funny thing is, in Dubai I get all of those things. I get the privacy, I get the peace, I get the space. I don't have to worry there. I feel safe." Lohan, who began working at age 3 and gained stardom with her first movie role in the 1998 remake of "The Parent Trap," was thrown into the thick of Hollywood. Often facing public scrutiny, the "Freaky Friday" star had enough and moved to Dubai in 2014. "I feel like some of [my work] got overshadowed by paparazzi and all that kind of stuff when I was younger, and that's kind of annoying. I wish that part didn't happen," Lindsay told Bustle in 2024. "I feel like that kind of took on a life of its own. So that's why I wanted to disappear. I was like, 'Unless there's no story here, they're not going to focus on just my work.'" In 2022, Lohan spoke about how she was taking control of her own narrative through social media. "In Dubai I get all of those things. I get the privacy, I get the peace, I get the space. I don't have to worry there. I feel safe." "When I first started out in the business, none of us had a say in how to control our own narrative," she told Cosmopolitan. "There were paparazzi pictures, and then people ran with it. So I think it's really good that, in this day and age, people can say who they are and who they want to be. And I admire and appreciate that. I'm a little jealous because I didn't have that. But I think it moves really fast, and I just try to keep up as best I can. And I check everything before I post it. I'll send it to people, because you have to." "You have to take everything people say with a grain of salt and just be you and slow down because everyone's so quick right now," she said. "People just don't stop. You've got to chill." After moving to Dubai, Lohan quickly learned the power of saying "no" when it comes to picking and choosing professional projects. "They teach you to say 'yes' to everything, and that's not really what life's all about," she told Bustle of her earlier years in the industry. "I was like, 'What if I never fall in love? What if this never happens?' And it took me just taking time for me for all those doors to open and the 'yeses' to come, the things I wanted to say 'yes' to." Since her return to the big screen, Lohan, who stars alongside Jamie Lee Curtis in "Freakier Friday," said she's found that prioritizing herself makes a huge difference in her overall well-being. "[Jamie and I] are both very family-oriented people. We always talk about that, and one of the other big things [she's taught me] is to always take care of yourself first," she told Elle. "Because without that, how can you do everything for everyone else?" "I love having a routine, and I like schedules," she continued. "So, my morning routine: waking up, writing in my journal, sipping my green tea, breakfast with my son, and then Pilates, making sure I go." Despite her hectic schedule, Lohan said the "most important thing" in her life is family. "I mean, it's the most important thing: my husband, my son and me. It's all about balance and, as I said, routine. Especially when you have a kid, routine is the most important thing. And whatever their routine is, I've got to live by that." Lohan is no stranger to criticism. With fame comes speculative curiosity, especially when it comes to her appearance. Elsewhere in the Elle interview, Lohan shut down rumors that she had a facelift. The star shared the secrets behind the skincare routine that she says has dramatically altered her look. "Everyone does Botox," Lohan said. "I drink this juice every morning. It's like carrot, ginger, lemon, olive oil, apple. I also drink a lot of green tea, a lot of water. I'm a big pickled beets person, so I put them in almost everything. My skincare is very specific. I'm trying out some serums now that I'm doing. I'm testing them." "Also, I'm a big believer in ice-cold water on your face when you wake up," the 38-year-old said. "I drink lemon juice a lot. I also put tons of chia seeds in my water. Eye patches I do every morning. I'm into lasers." "I did Morpheus8 (a noninvasive radiofrequency microneedling treatment) once, and then I realized my skin is so thin that I can't be doing that," Lohan said. "My skin changed after having my son. It got really sensitive. That's what really made me change my whole routine and diet and everything. I did blood tests, and I was like, 'I want to know everything I'm allergic to.' So I cut everything out, and that's kind of when everything started to change for me."

Reneé Rapp reveals Towa Bird 'topped her' before they started dating
Reneé Rapp is getting candid about her relationship with fellow musician Towa Bird, and her description of how the two lovebirds met is hilarious. On the Tuesday, May 27 episode of Good Hang with Amy Poehler, the Mean Girls star opened up about why she thought it was 'so hot' that her singer-songwriter girlfriend didn't seem to like her when they met for the first time. Bird rose to fame on TikTok, so Rapp knew who she was and thought she was 'sexy' long before they ever met in person. "I just always thought she was so f*cking cool," the 'Too Well' singer told host Amy Poehler. Rapp asked a close friend to introduce her to the British singer-songwriter even though Bird wasn't ready to meet someone. "I said, 'I couldn't give a f*ck less. I'm not either, but I'm gonna meet her. We need to at least be friends,' Rapp explained. But when the two finally met, Bird was 'so f*cking mean' to her. Luckily, Rapp was into it. 'She's scary," the talented 25-year-old pop star said. "Well, she's like from the U.K., so, like, her humor is super different. She's also just like, such a bitch.' we love you renee and towa we say in unison #reneerapp #AMAs #AMA2025 #lesbiansoftiktok #couplegoals #wlw #lesbian #towabird #podcast #amypoehler Rapp told Bird that she had heard 'so much' about her, but instead of being flattered, the 'Drain Me!' singer responded by asking, 'Why are you talking about me so much then?' The second time they met, the two lesbians started talking about what cars they drove, and Rapp said that she 'wouldn't have pegged' Bird for someone who owned 'that kind of car.' Bird cheekily responded, 'Oh, you don't want to peg me?' Poehler jumped in to say, 'She topped a top,' which Rapp immediately agreed with. 'She literally topped a top. She out flirted me,' she said. Despite their relationship starting with Bird 'really negging' Rapp, according to Poehler, the 26-year-old guitar player was the first one to say 'I love you.' While on the beach "high out of our minds,' Bird said the three magical words, but instead of saying them back, Rapp 'didn't say a word' and then asked her girlfriend to repeat herself. "And she was like, 'Are you f---ing kidding me right now?'" she remembered Bird saying before Rapp said she felt the same. See on Instagram Elsewhere in the interview, Poehler helped Rapp come up with her drag king name and the results will have you giggling. When asked what her drag king name would be, Rapp was stumped, but the Parks and Rec alum came in clutch. 'Instead of Timothée Chalamet, you could be called Timothée Chala-Gay.' 'That's it,' Rapp the full episode below. - YouTube

Lindsay Lohan Reveals the ‘Selfish' Reason She's Ready for Another Baby
Lindsay Lohan is busier than ever. Her highly anticipated Freaky Friday sequel is releasing this August, she was just announced as star and executive producer of a TV series Count My Lies, and, oh yeah, she's raising her almost 2-year-old son Luai with husband Bader Shammas. Still, she wants to be a little bit 'selfish' — and she just revealed she's ready for baby number two. The Mean Girls alum, who is the cover star of Elle in a new feature released online today, shared that she wants another baby. 'I feel like we live in a different world now, where women make it such a point, especially in motherhood, to make time for ourselves,' Lohan said. 'We make it important.' It's true — and it's a good thing, even! — but at the same time, sometimes it's OK for moms to overextend themselves just a little bit for your kids. More from SheKnows Lindsay Lohan Finally Spoke Out About the Plastic Surgery Rumors & It's More Direct Than We Expected 'But also, once you have one kid, you're like, 'Oh, my kid needs a kid to play with,'' she continued, adding, 'I'm like, 'He needs a friend.' Even though things are chaotic, she wants to go through it all again with another baby so her child will have at least one sibling. Which make sense! Lohan has three younger siblings herself, so it makes sense she wants more kids. I come from a family of six, and my first two kids were 18 months apart because I wanted my oldest to have a sibling as well. In the interview, Lohan said 'there's nothing like [the bond of siblings].' But there is also a more 'selfish' reason for wanting another baby. 'Also, I don't know if it's selfish — but I'm like, 'I need more than one kid to take care of me when I'm older,'' she said. Personally, I don't think she's selfish at all! I'm thankful that I have many siblings to help share the load of caring for my parents when they're older too. This isn't the first time Lohan has talked about more kids. In an interview on TODAY with her Irish Wish co-star Ayesha Curry in March 2024, Lohan said, per PEOPLE, 'of course I do' about having more kids. 'Do you want four like Ayesha?' host Hoda Kotb asked. 'I mean, you never know,' Lohan responded. 'Let's go for a second first. But I love having siblings. I feel so blessed to have other siblings to be able to hang with and talk to and relate with. I would love to have more. I want my son to have that same experience.' So sweet! One thing's for sure: Lohan is glowing since becoming a mom. She told Elle in the interview today, 'It's the most important thing — my husband, my son, and me,' The Parent Trap star said. 'It's all about balance and, as I said, routine. Especially when you have a kid, routine is the most important thing. And whatever their routine is, I've got to live by that.'
