David and Victoria Beckham face fresh heartache as new details emerge of Brooklyn's vow renewal speech to wife Nicola Peltz
David and Victoria Beckham look set to face fresh heartache as new details have emerged of son Brooklyn's vow renewal speech to wife Nicola Peltz. Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, said 'I do' for a second time on August 2 in Westchester County in front of her family, with the Beckham clan notably absent amid their ongoing feud. His parents David, 50, and Victoria, 51, and his brothers Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and sister Harper, 14, were nowhere in sight at the second wedding, while in contrast, Nicola's family had key roles at the lavish event. And in an additional blow for the Beckham family, Brooklyn reportedly opened up on his love for the Peltz family, as well as speaking 'movingly' of his wife, as he gave his speech in front of the 200 guests. A source told The Mirror: 'He spoke from the heart - and at the centre of his heart is Nicola who he loves very dearly, but also the Peltz family who have really stuck by his side. He wanted to recognise them all, and was determined to do them all justice.' News of the 'heartfelt tribute' to billionaire Nelson Peltz, 83, and wife Claudia, 70, will no doubt add to the pain of the Beckham family amid their estrangement from Brooklyn, with it said that no such tribute was given for his own parents. Daily Mail has contacted representatives of Brooklyn, David and Victoria for comment. In addition to his immediate family, Brooklyn's grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles were also absent and only found out about the wedding vow renewal by reading it online. It comes as Brooklyn is reportedly 'heartbroken' over the way his wife Nicola is being 'painted as a viper' within their ongoing family feud. Billionaire heiress Nicola has previously been accused of 'isolating' Brooklyn from not only his family, but his friends too. New sources allege Brooklyn is not being held from making his own decisions and is 'devastated' over the way his wife is being portrayed. A source told The Mirror: 'It's so rooted in misogyny that all of the heat for his parents not being invited is on Nicola. 'Everyone seems to forget that Brooklyn is an adult man and fully capable of speaking out. Nicola would have respected all that he chose. 'It breaks Brooklyn's heart to see his wife being painted as this vixen and viper.' in an additional blow for the Beckham family, Brooklyn reportedly opened up on his love for the Peltz family, as well as speaking 'movingly' of his wife, as he gave his speech in front of the 200 guests News of the 'heartfelt tribute' to billionaire Nelson Peltz, 83, and wife Claudia, 70, will no doubt add to the pain of the Beckham family amid their estrangement from Brooklyn, with it said that no such tribute was given for his own parents Daily Mail has contacted Brooklyn, Nicola and the Beckhams representatives for comment. Insiders previously told Daily Mail that Brooklyn's parents are concerned his wife Nicola holds disproportionate sway in her marriage to their son. They said: 'They think Nicola is a bit of a horror but she isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Nicola loves having Brooklyn at her side and she loves him very much. But he is also very useful. 'The wider Beckham family and Brooklyn's friends – many of whom he no longer sees – take the view that he does what Nicola wants. From Beckhams' point of view, it's not nice to watch.' Brooklyn and Nicola's vow renewal was a glamorous affair packed with family, fashion and friends earlier this month. As more pictures of both the big day and the after-party come to light, it is becoming increasingly more apparent that the festivities were fairly one-sided - with most of the guestlist comprising Brooklyn's post-Nicola peers and pals. The lack of Brooklyn's side sparked widespread chat on social media, including comments from fans who likened their relationship to that of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle - after the royal turned his back on his family and moved to the US. When Brooklyn and Nicola first tied the knot in 2022, they hosted a three-day Palm Beach extravaganza, which saw 500 guests party in no-expense-spared marquees in front of the ocean - where both families stood front and centre . Fast- forward three years and the change is remarkable, with no sign of the Beckham parents or the siblings Brooklyn held so close to his heart. In their place is the entirety of the Peltz clan - with Nicola's mother Claudia and her father Nelson holding all-star roles on the day.

How Brooklyn Beckham's ditched Brit pals in move ‘straight out of Prince Harry manual' as he ‘soft launches Brand Peltz'
WEDDINGS are usually about celebrating your love with your nearest and dearest - and that was certainly the case for Nicola Peltz-Beckham at her and Brooklyn's lavish vow renewal ceremony. The actress, 30, was surrounded by her loved ones at the glitzy event on her family estate in Westchester County, New York earlier this month - with her dad Nelson even officiating. 13 13 13 13 Yet not a single member of 26-year-old Brooklyn's famous clan was present - and his mates from back home were also conspicuously absent from the photographs shared online. There was no sign of once-close pals Rocco Richie, Noel Gallagher 's daughter Anais or Gordon Ramsay 's son Jack - despite the celebrity chef and his family attending the couple's 2022 wedding. Instead the couple posed alongside Nicola's brothers, a selection of her friends from the acting world, and members of her glam squad. Brooklyn's parents Victoria, 51, dad David, 50 - currently on holiday in St Tropez - are said to be heartbroken at the very public snub, which will no doubt deepen the alleged rift between the Peltz-Beckhams and their in-laws. At Brooklyn's wedding to Nicola in 2022, the guest list appeared to be fairly evenly split - with his sister Harper, 14, one of Nicola's bridesmaids. But she, along with Brooklyn's brothers Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, failed to cop an invite for the vow renewal, and reportedly only found out about it when they read reports online. PR guru Mark Borkowski called it a move "straight out of the Prince Harry manual" - and warns this latest stunt could cause long-lasting reputational issues for the couple. He told The Sun: 'Brooklyn's vow renewal looked less like a family celebration and more like a soft launch for the Peltz brand - with the Beckham name parked politely at the diamond-encrusted gates. 'He's swapped the Brit pack tribal connections for Nicola's billionaire bubble, a move straight from the Prince Harry manual: ditch the old circle, live in your spouse's world, and curate a new reality. "From a brand point of view, it's risky. The Beckham Dynasty is still a golden ticket, but cut the supply lines to the family machine and the shine fades fast. 'If Brooklyn and Nicola can build something genuinely aspirational on their own, fine - but if not, they'll be remembered as the couple who traded a global dynasty for a glossy cul-de-sac.' It was previously reported that Brooklyn no longer has any contact with his old pals including Jack Ramsay, despite them once being "inseparable". 'He no longer speaks to Rocco Ritchie, Madonna and Guy Ritchie's son, with whom he attended the Hampstead Fine Arts college in Belsize Park, north-west London," claimed the Daily Mail. Brooklyn's vow renewal looked less like a family celebration and more like a soft launch for the Peltz brand Marc BorkowskiPR guru The only visible friend of Brooklyn's who pre-dates Nicola was businessman Jeremy Clerc, seen on the floor in the centre of a group picture. Jeremy, who owns an assisted living business, featured on Brooklyn's Instagram in 2020 in a post captioned 'love you guys'. The rest of those pictured appear to be linked to Nicola - including actor Benny Buckley, who appeared alongside Nicola in her film Lola, and celebrity hair colourist Daniel Moon, who counts Kristen Stewart, Katy Perry and Madonna among his client roster. The group also features cinematographer and photographer Hunter Moreno, who works with Nicola's former BFF Selena Gomez and KSI; brothers Eran and Aran Shapov, who run a luxury construction company; LA real estate agent Anthony Barillo; make-up artist Georgi Sandev, and creative branding agency owner Dominic J West. 13 13 13 13 Other photos shared on Instagram by Brooklyn show the couple with members of Nicola's family. Many fans have commented on the absence of Brooklyn's brood, with one remarking: 'How can you break-up with three siblings and your parents after having such a big bond and life experience together?! It's really like cutting off your arm and pretending everything is normal.' Another wrote: "Cold, calculating, deeply hurtful to plan an event and exclude part of your family," while one branded the couple: "Harry and Meghan version 2." It's the latest kick in the teeth for the Beckham family after Nicola and Brooklyn snubbed David's 50th birthday bash, and Brooklyn didn't acknowledge Victoria on Mother's Day. The alleged feud is said to have been sparked by a row over money. Brooklyn has swapped the Brit pack tribal connections for Nicola's billionaire bubble, a move straight from the Prince Harry manual: ditch the old circle, live in your spouse's world, and curate a new reality Marc Borkowski A forensic pre-nup was apparently drawn up before Brooklyn and Nicola's wedding to secure the Peltz family 's enormous wealth — a fortune that relatively dwarves the Beckhams'. The Peltzes have reportedly accused the Beckhams of being 'tight' and not amply providing for their beloved son. Meanwhile David, Victoria and the rest of the family are said to be hurt by their once-devoted eldest son becoming estranged - and hold Nicola responsible. A source said: 'They think Nicola is a bit of a horror but she isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Nicola loves having Brooklyn at her side, and she loves him very much. But he is also very useful. 'The wider Beckham family and Brooklyn's friends – many of whom he no longer sees – take the view that he does what Nicola wants. From the Beckhams' point of view, it's not nice to watch.' It's been reported Brooklyn has not had contact with his family for months, and "it feels clear to them that he doesn't want to make amends". 13 13 13 13

Brooklyn Beckham's 'family brand vow renewal a gratuitous display of obscene wealth' after he and Nicola failed to invite any of his relatives
's family have reportedly branded his and Nicola Peltz 's secret vow renewal a 'gratuitous display of obscene wealth'. The couple wed for a second time on August 2 in Westchester County in front of her family, followed by a butterfly-theme afterparty, with the Beckham clan nowhere in sight at either event. The lack of his family's presence is the latest sign Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, have washed their hands with his family. Now, sources close to the Beckhams claim the family didn't understand the need for Brooklyn and Nicola to renew their vows just three years after tying the knot in 2022. A source told The Sun: 'They would understand if it was, say, 10 years down the line - maybe even five. But three?! It seems like quite a gratuitous display of obscene wealth. 'Also, if Brooklyn wanted to create a really cute memory, why couldn't he have just let his family know their plans first? 'To be honest, although there have been moments of rapprochement, this hostility dates back to 2021, around six months before the original wedding. 'The dynamics have just never really gelled. Of course David and Victoria want Brooklyn to be happy and clearly he is wildly in love still, but a lot of people have been hurt. It is a sad situation and everyone fears there is no way back now. It is done.' Daily Mail has contacted the Peltz and Beckham's representatives for comment. Brooklyn's family's feelings towards their vow renewal could suggest why none of his relatives were on the invite list. However, Victoria, David and their children Romeo, 22, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, were said to have only found out about Brooklyn's big day after reading about it on a US website. It's a stark contrast to Nicola's family, who had key roles at the second wedding, with her father Nelson, 83, officiating, wearing her mother Claudia's, 70, vintage wedding gown and letting her parents take centre stage once again at the after party. Their eldest son has become increasingly estranged from the family ever since he snubbed his father's 50th birthday, and now, the family fear it's a final kick in the teeth for the family. A source told The Sun on Monday: 'This was the final kick in the teeth for David and Victoria. Seeing Nelson having such a pivotal role at the ceremony was heartbreaking for David especially. Not one member of the 30-plus extended family knew about the wedding, or were invited. 'His grandparents are devastated too as Brooklyn has always been so close to them.' The source added: 'It feels cruel and spiteful. This is no longer a game. It has gone beyond all that. This is a family who feel they have lost their precious boy - and see no way back. 'Honestly, they are now questioning why he even wants to keep the 'Beckham' surname - will he revert to Peltz? August 2nd 2025 - is this the day Brooklyn formally declared himself no longer a part of the Beckham family? It certainly feels like it.' Brooklyn and Nicola first tied the knot in a lavish £3million ceremony in 2022, when relations first began to sour with his parents in the run-up to the big day. After shunning a dress made by her fashion designer Victoria in favour of a Valentino gown in 2022 - a choice which wasn't well received - Nicola once again snubbed her mother-in-law and wore her mother Claudia's vintage wedding gown. It is a poignant message to Posh and Becks', whom he and Nicola have grown increasingly estranged over recent months. All the while the Beckhams were said to be upset by the Peltzes in 2022 who they felt were taking over the wedding. And ever since their first big nuptials in April 2022, the two families have not reunited and Nicola has rarely been pictured with the Beckhams. The couple shared the images on Instagram on Monday, alongside the words 'only love.' Nicola wore the same original $1.8mill ring set adding a glinting filter onto the dazzling jewels. They also shared a video of their very casual proposal on TikTok alongside a song by Ysabelle Cuevas alongside the words: 'Lost in your eyes..' Brooklyn described the vow renewal as a 'really beautiful experience' while admitting he is still head-over-heels for his wife. Speaking for the first time about the day, the 26-year-old admitted he'd happily do it 'every single day' if he could. Brooklyn said the moment was all about creating a 'really cute memory' they'd treasure forever.
