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.

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz hire Meghan Markle's lawyer amid family feud
Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz have reportedly hired the lawyers who represent Meghan Markle and Prince Harry amid ongoing family feud with his family Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have reportedly felt compelled to instruct Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's lawyer in a bid to protect their reputations amid their ongoing family feud. Brooklyn, 26 and Nicola, 30, have been notably absent from milestone family gatherings over recent months amid a feud that reportedly stemmed from tension between his parents, David and Victoria Beckham. According to reports relations between Nicola and his parents were at an all time low during their wedding planning. Four months after Nicola's wedding, she told Vanity Fair that Victoria let her down a few months "down the line" when she realised her "atelier couldn't do it [make the dress]." And so instead, she opted for a Valentino gown. Adding further fuel to the fire, the couple was a no show at David's recent 50th birthday celebrations. So now, it has been claimed that they have hired top solicitor Jenny Afia to help with "reputation management." The British solicitor works for the legal firm Schillings and was seen commenting on the documentary titled The Princes And The Press. A source told the Mail on Sunday: "All of a sudden, they have enlisted the help of the Sussexes' long-serving lawyer. Nicola and Brooklyn are getting fed up of stories running they don't like. Nicola likes to control everything, and they have taken this rather drastic action." They added: "For the Beckhams, the irony isn't lost. They fell out with Meghan and Harry after they accused them of leaking stories – they were furious, and Brooklyn knows that. The two couples are very close indeed." The feud between Nicola and Brooklyn's parents doesn't not appear to be ending any time soon if his post about being loyal to his wife is anything to go by. Brooklyn shared a video with fans of the pair on the back of his motorbike as they rode through southern California. He told his wife, who is the daughter of billionaire Nelson Peltz: "My whole world x I will love you forever x I always choose you baby x you're the most amazing person I know xx me and you forever baby." Nicola has been accused of being controlling. A separate source told The Sun: "She is creating conflict where there is none and divides are springing up left, right and centre." In a bid to balance out the scales, Nicola's friends have since stepped forward. One told the Mirror: "She is not isolating him [Brooklyn] at all. He is free to do what he wants and he loves his wife and they are happy together. They are each other's family." The Mirror approached Nicola and Brooklyn's spokesperson for comment.
