Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have been pictured for the first time since Brooklyn’s scathing social media statement slammed parents David and Victoria as they appear united
Defiant Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola are seen for the first time since his attack on his parents as pals said: “He has no regrets at all.”
The 26-year-old broke cover with his wife in Malibu, California, where the pair have been holed up since his explosive statement. And a pal said: “He would do it all again in a heartbeat but now he just wants to live his life with the woman he loves.”
The couple was seen taking a walk just after sunset, with one of their rescue dogs. Hand in hand, they spent nearly 30 minutes walking down the shoreline, and were seen laughing and smiling.

It comes as we can reveal how Brooklyn pushed the “nuclear button” after being left haunted by the number of times Nicola was left in tears during the feud with his family. A source claimed that one “memorable example” was when Victoria Beckham pulled out of designing her wedding dress.
The insider claimed that Victoria ignored calls and texts from her stylist Leslie Fremar for an update saying she was too busy. Posh eventually called Nicola’s mum Claudia and said she couldn’t make the dress, before then allegedly texting Nicola to break the news.
A source said: “Nicola was devastated…and Brooklyn is still smarting about the way it was handled as his explosive statement made clear. There have been other occasions too where his wife has been left tearful over the way she has been falsely portrayed.”
It’s also claimed that in the meantime Victoria offered to make Nicola’s mum Claudia and the bridesmaids couture dresses before changing her mind and offering something off the rack.
By that point, it’s claimed her stylist was looking elsewhere. But this version of events is at odds with the Beckhams, whose friends say she didn’t ignore the messages, and didn’t break the news by text to Nicola.
They maintain that Victoria realised quickly that her atelier couldn’t handle the project and relayed this straight away to Claudia and Nicola. In the end, Nicola wore a Valentino couture creation to marry Brooklyn.
Brooklyn had claimed that Victoria pulled out of making the dress at the “eleventh hour”. We can reveal that these conversations happened in summer 2021 – eight months before their wedding.
A Vogue article also says how Nicola and her mother made multiple trips to the Valentino atelier in Rome for the fittings, “over the year-long design process”. A source said: “Maybe eight months before a wedding is the eleventh hour in celebrity land…..or maybe Brooklyn has got his dates muddled up.”
It comes as the Mirror revealed yesterday how a guest at Brooklyn’s wedding dismissed his allegations of dirty dancing against mum Victoria, saying: “She was a bit wooden, but not sleazy.” But the partygoer at Brooklyn and Nicola’s reception in 2022 said they found Victoria’s dancing cringeworthy.
They told the Mirror: “It was inappropriate but only in the sense that she appeared to be the centre of attention when it should have been about the bride instead.” And added: “There was no grinding. But it was a bit of a stiff, awkward performance.”
Brooklyn caused a sensation on Monday after accusing Victoria of hijacking his first dance to a live song at the US nuptials. He said: “She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”
Brooklyn’s comments have led to Victoria being ridiculed on social media, with one AI meme portraying her dancing on a chat show. There has been speculation the mum of four was “grinding” on her son.
Stavros Agapiou, who attended the Florida wedding party with Fat Tony who was DJing, backed up Brooklyn’s account. In a now-deleted post on social media, Stavros said: “He’s telling the truth.” But later added: “Good on him for finally speaking out!” Last night Fat Tony jokingly compared Victoria’s wedding dance to an embarrassing scene from BBC sitcom Motherland.
In the show, Amanda – played by Lucy Punch – dances to the Lil’ Kleine and Ronnie Flex track Drank & Drugs in front of her stunned school mum friends. Fat Tony shared a clip of this dance, adding: “Actual video footage, it’s true I was there!” Brooklyn and Nicola’s lavish and starstudded wedding was attended by 500 guests.
In his bombshell social media statement, he said: “Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead.” He added: “We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment.”
The guests had to hand in their phones so they were not able to film the event. Only one video of the dance, filmed by the official videographer, is believed to exist. It is thought to be in Brooklyn’s possession but insiders says it is unlikely he will release it.
Sources close to the Beckhams have denied there was anything inappropriate or cringeworthy about Victoria’s dancing. But a guest said: “It did rather feel like the Beckham show. Marc Anthony had been praising Victoria in between songs and then you had her go up on the dance floor for this moment. They added: “It was a bit much, and Nicola didn’t appear happy.”
