In the world of celebrity families, even weddings can be war zones—and the Beckhams are no exception. What was supposed to be a fairytale wedding between Brooklyn Beckham and American heiress Nicola Peltz has turned into an ongoing family feud that the media has dubbed “Beckxit”—a not-so-subtle nod to the infamous Brexit saga.
Brooklyn, the eldest son of football legend David Beckham and fashion icon Victoria Beckham, tied the knot with Nicola Peltz in April 2022. The wedding, held at her family’s $100 million Palm Beach estate, was a lavish affair. But beneath the glam and grandeur simmered tensions that have reportedly led to a cold war between Nicola and her new in-laws—one that continues to divide the Beckham clan to this day.
At the heart of the drama lies a seemingly simple fashion choice: Nicola’s decision not to wear a dress designed by Victoria Beckham. Instead, she opted for a Valentino couture gown, claiming that the Victoria Beckham atelier was unable to deliver in time. But sources close to the family suggest that this was a deeper snub—one that bruised egos and sparked whispers of control, disrespect, and underlying rivalry.
Since then, signs of the rift have grown more public. Nicola and Victoria no longer appear in each other’s social media feeds. Holidays and key family events have been missed or quietly celebrated apart. Some insiders say Victoria feels iced out by Nicola’s tight-knit bond with her own family, while others claim Nicola believes she was never fully accepted into the Beckham circle.
But what turned private tension into public spectacle was the apparent “freeze-out” of Brooklyn by his own parents. David and Victoria were notably absent from several key moments in their son’s life post-wedding—triggering tabloid speculation that the Beckhams have drawn a line in the sand. Brooklyn’s once-glowing relationship with his family, particularly his younger siblings, seems strained. And for a family so notoriously close-knit, that’s not just gossip—it’s a bombshell.
Some argue this is typical family drama blown out of proportion by the media. Others believe it’s a classic power struggle playing out in the public eye. Is Nicola attempting to reshape Brooklyn’s image and distance him from his famous roots? Or are the Beckhams struggling to let go of control over their son’s adult life?
Regardless of which side you believe, “Beckxit” has become the latest chapter in celebrity dysfunction that we can’t look away from. It’s a messy cocktail of wealth, fame, and family dynamics—served up for the world to dissect.
In a world obsessed with curated perfection, the Beckham-Peltz feud reminds us that not even the most polished families are immune to tension. And as the icy silence continues, one thing is clear: in the house of Beckham, not all that glitters is gold.
