Nicola Peltz Beckham has responded to claims that she’s controlling her husband, Brooklyn Beckham, following growing tensions between the Beckham and Peltz families. This comes after Nicola posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram for her father Nelson Peltz’s 83rd birthday, which sparked a wave of online commentary and speculation about her relationship with Brooklyn.
In her post, Nicola shared multiple pictures from the birthday celebration, which featured her father, Brooklyn, and other family members gathered together. The celebration included cake and warm moments, with Nicola expressing her love for her father.
“Happy birthday Dad! I’m so lucky to be your daughter. You’re the most loving and supportive father I could ever ask for,” Nicola wrote in her caption. “I love you more than words can say—you’re the wind beneath my wings. I cherished celebrating you yesterday. Thank you for always being there for us with your constant love and support.”
However, the celebratory post quickly became the center of attention, with many followers focusing on the ongoing drama between Brooklyn and his family. Comments began circulating that suggested Brooklyn’s apparent estrangement from the Beckhams was due to Nicola’s influence. Critics of the couple accused her of controlling Brooklyn, especially as he has been notably absent from key family events, including his father David Beckham’s 50th birthday and one of Victoria Beckham’s important fashion shows.
Though Nicola didn’t directly respond to these comments, she made it clear she was aware of the criticism. She liked a comment that read: “The fact that people are blaming a woman for controlling a grown man is absurd. He’s an adult who can make his own choices, so stop blaming women for everything.”
Brooklyn’s estrangement from his family has been ongoing for some time. Tensions reportedly began during his wedding to Nicola, particularly over her choice of wedding dress, as well as a notable incident at the reception where Marc Anthony referred to Victoria Beckham as “the most beautiful woman in the room.” Sources claim these rifts have deepened, with Brooklyn missing multiple family milestones, further fueling rumors of discord within the Beckham family.
Despite the ongoing drama, Nicola’s Instagram post about her father suggests her focus remains on family celebrations, while the Beckham family feud continues to capture public attention.
