It’s been three years since Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz said ‘I do’ in an eye-wateringly expensive wedding with Hollywood guests that left even Posh and Becks stunned

It was the celebrity wedding of the year, packed with glamour, designer fashion, and a price tag that reportedly left even the Beckhams stunned.

But behind the scenes of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz’s eye-wateringly expensive nuptials, rumours of a rift have continued to swirl after the couple failed to attend David Beckham’s 50th birthday party – despite the rest of the family putting on a united front.

Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, said “I do” in April 2022 in a jaw-dropping £3 million ceremony at the Peltz family’s £76 million Palm Beach estate. The A-list bash included a Valentino couture gown, a Dior tux, Hollywood stars like Eva Longoria and Serena Williams, and a performance by Snoop Dogg.

It was a party to rival any royal wedding – and far more expensive than the £750,000 Posh and Becks splashed out in 1999 on their own famous big day.

But it wasn’t long before whispers of a Beckham-Peltz family feud began making headlines. Nicola and mother-in-law Victoria Beckham were said to be at the heart of it, with sources claiming tension brewed in the lead-up to the big day.

Reports at the time claimed that Victoria was disappointed Nicola chose to wear a Valentino dress rather than a dress designed by her own label.

Nicola later denied the rumours, calling them “hurtful”, but fans noticed the frosty vibes when neither side publicly posted photos together after the ceremony.

“I was going to [wear Victoria Beckham] and I really wanted to, and then a few months down the line, she realised that her atelier couldn’t do it, so then I had to pick another dress,” she told Variety at the time.

“She didn’t say you can’t wear it, I didn’t say I didn’t want to wear it. That’s where it started, and then they ran with that.”

Brooklyn, now going by Peltz-Beckham, has insisted that “everyone gets along”, but speculation hasn’t stopped – especially after the couple skipped the 2025 Met Gala, one of fashion’s biggest nights, after backlash over not attending David Beckham’s 50th birthday party.

Insiders claimed the pair pulled out due to renewed scrutiny over the alleged family drama.

The Beckham family had celebrated the footballer’s birthday on three occasions – an intimate family event at their Cotswolds home, a trip to France and the final event – a boozy dinner party held in Notting Hill, London.

Brooklyn and Nicola had jetted into London for the final night of celebrations but ultimately failed to turn up, allegedly leaving David heartbroken. It’s claimed that Brooklyn did not want to be around his brother Romeo’s girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, who Brooklyn had a brief relationship with.

Despite the supposed rift, their wedding was nothing short of spectacular. Nicola’s gown was hand-crafted in Rome, and Brooklyn’s emotional vows left not a dry eye in the house.

David’s heartfelt speech and Victoria’s elegant silver gown were also standout moments in a wedding dripping with designer flair. There were said to be around 500 high-profile guests attending the big day.

Nicola also opted to have her grandmother as her maid of honour, while the groomsmen were kitted out in Dior suits. Nicola’s stylist, Leslie Fremar, said that the bride’s wedding gown, with its spectacularly ornate French lace veil, was the most beautiful dress she had ever seen.

Brooklyn was seen tearing up as his wife-to-be walked down the aisle, while Nicola said it was her mother who “really put this whole thing together” during a speech.

The couple, who started dating in 2019 and got engaged the following summer, are said to be positioning themselves as a next-gen power duo.

EXCLUSIVE: Liam Gallagher’s sweet adoption story of a street dog from Thailand melted the hearts of the public last year and now the man who rescued the animal has opened up on the moment

Niall Harbison’s stories of street dogs in Thailand have been keeping social media users enthralled since his move to the Asian country in 2022. The Irish native upped sticks and set up a charity in a bid to help the thousands of animals in need.

Its rapid growth now sees his Happy Doggo organisation to sterilise 7,000 dogs and feed 300,000 each month. However, it’s his rescue stories that continue to capture the attention of his audience.

With around five million followers across platforms, with 1.3million watching his Instagram content, Niall boasts a number of high-profile names as his followers, including Gemma Atkinson, Sam Fender, Charlie Lawson and Ruth Langsford.

But it was when one certain name reached out to him in an adoption enquiry that Niall thought someone was on a wind-up. Speaking exclusively to the Mirror, Niall admitted Britpop icon Liam Gallagher’s online form surprised him.

And he admitted within minutes he knew the type of person he was dealing with – and was more than happy to let dog Buttons “win the jackpot”.

After explaining the surreal moment of seeing the Gallagher household looking to adopt Buttons, Niall confessed it seemed strange talking to Liam on a Zoom call to vet his character. “Up popped Liam Gallagher on the screen with his partner,” Niall said. “I’m asking him questions, thinking ‘this is nuts’, but was really funny was, I thought ‘it must be the wife that’s watching this on Instagram and she’s dragged him in to make sure they get the dog’.

“But then he started to open up [about the other dogs on Niall’s social media]. It was a real mind blower to be honest.

“He’s a real funny, just genuine dog lover, you know? He’s just very, very funny and loves the dogs.”

The former head chef went on: “It would have been tricky if you got a celebrity and they weren’t [suitable]. We’d have to say no. But with him, it wasn’t even a question. The only question was they had a couple of cats so we had to test Buttons with a couple of cats to make sure, but he was the ideal owner, I’d say.”

And he joked that he felt like saying to Liam that he is “softening” his reputation. “I think people who like dogs just melt. It makes you see a different side to people, absolutely.”

And Niall’s link-up with Liam didn’t end there, with the singer playing his part in helping to keep the organisation carrying out its work. Last year he made an impressive £25,000 donation.

“I’ve never asked him to do anything,” Niall revealed. “But they have donated to the hospital. He did a tour and they had a big ball on the middle of the tour, like a globe, and they auctioned that off at the end of the tour for £25,000, which was just mind blowing and they donated the money to the hospital.

“In terms of adopting, it wasn’t just adopting the dog, it was everything else they’ve done and they’re very nice people.”

At the time of the adoption, Niall shared Buttons’ journey on social media. He wrote: “I get messages from him and his lovely partner and they are besotted by little Buttons….Well done little Buttons. You were brave enough to invite yourself in looking for a better life and look at you now on the telly with a rock star dad.”

Niall was talking to the Mirror ahead of the launch of his second book titled Tina: The Dog Who Changed the World. His first book, Hope: How Street Dogs Taught Me the Meaning of Life, became an international best seller.

His latest offering follows the story of a dog Niall came across that was shackled to a short chain and in a poor state of health. It was a scenario that reminded him of his personal battle with addiction and he knew he had to rescue her immediately.

Despite her terrible treatment at the hands of humans, she refused to distrust them and only opened her heart wider. Following her death last year, Tina has inspired Niall to create a sanctuary for dogs to recuperate, and the idea for Tina’s hospital was born.

The book also touches on other heartwarming stories from Niall’s time in Thailand, including with Internet famous pooches, Alba and Cindy Crawford. Both animals went viral as Niall shared their story with his followers.

All proceeds from the book will go towards continuing to build the hospital. Speaking of the set-up, Niall said: “Tina was a great part of my life. We’ve actually got the hospital working at the moment. The big hospital is being built.

“But the field hospital is up and running and operating on dogs in there. But it’s built all around Tina’s grave. It’s been very hard to get it this far, but Tina’s right there beside it so I just look at her every day. There’s dogs being treated right beside where she used to hang out in the hammock so it’s come full circle and I’ve kept my promise to her.”

Tina: The Dog Who Changed the World is available to purchase from May 8.

Romeo Beckham’s son, Romeo, was spotted parking his Range Rover on double yellow lines in a coffee shop in London as a pit stop.

Romeo Beckham risked getting a fine after parking his £200,000 black Range Rover on double yellow lines. After spending days celebrating his dad David’s milestone 50th birthday, Romeo returned to normal life as he stepped out for a smoothie at a coffee shop in central London.

As he made a pit stop for a drink this week, the 22-year-old appeared to be deeply persuaded. The actor only briefly left his car after returning with his drink. Romeo was seen outgoing wearing a plain beige t-shirt, white shorts, and a backwards black cap in photos shared online. Additionally, he donned a white watch and silver Nike sneakers.

The typical fine for parking on double yellow lines in London is £16. If paid within 14 days of the issue date, the steep fine can be reduced to £80.

Romeo’s outing comes amid a huge family feud involving Brooklyn Beckham and his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham. The couple were rumoured to be attending David’s 50th birthday celebrations but were nowhere to be seen.

Without Brooklyn, David and his family celebrated their birthdays at home and at his favorite Parisian restaurant. David’s close friends from the A-list met at Core by Clare Smyth for a huge bash when they returned to London.

Brooklyn snubbed the celebrations and also failed to acknowledge his father on social media. Meanwhile, Romeo recently posted a loved-up message to his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, who is at the centre of the feud with the former footballer’s brother, Brooklyn.

Brooklyn, who allegedly dated Kim in 2016, allegedly swerved his father’s 50th birthday in protest of rumors that his wife, Nicola, is “controlling” the self-proclaimed “nutter in the kitchen,” who married the billionaire heiress three years ago.

The drama is said to have kicked off when Romeo started dating Kim Turnbull, with reports saying wannabe chef, Brooklyn, was adamant he would not attend any family functions as long as the model and DJ was there.

Romeo and Kim showed up for his father’s big day on Saturday, but Romeo and Kim did, and Romeo posted a love-up photo of the couple at the Beckhams’ palatial pile in the Cotswolds with the caption “My world.”

Romeo and Kim first appeared on dates in the summer of last year, but they soon made the official move in November with numerous outings to glamorous red carpets.

Meanwhile, a source recently told the Mirror that Brooklyn and Nicola are “devastated” David refused to see them privately ahead of the birthday celebrations.

According to recent reports, Nicola’s husband reportedly resisted attending any family gatherings, which has a pattern of starting arguments. Romeo is upset about the situation because Kim is to blame, according to reports.

However, Nicola and Brooklyn reportedly suffered other injuries as a result of the fallout. Before making a significant U-turn, Brooke reportedly had the idea of attending David’s birthday celebrations.

He claimed he had planned to meet his famous father “privately” to avoid Kim because the couple “have a problem with her.” They were allegedly instructed to attend the family gathering alone as opposed to “grabbing a quick coffee or breakfast” with the father-of-four.

Brooklyn Beckham and his wife, Nicola Peltz, were no-shows at David Beckham’s 50th birthday party on the weekend amid rumours of a fierce feud within the family

Brooklyn Beckham has broken his social media silence following the reported fallout with his famous family. The wannabe chef, 26, and wife, Nicola Peltz, 30, failed to turn up for David Beckham’s 50th birthday party on the weekend following reports the former footballer’s firstborn is feuding with brother Romeo over his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, who Brooklyn reportedly dated in 2016.

Actress, Nicola, is at the centre of the drama, with a source close to the Beckhams claiming Victoria and David are “done” with their daughter-in-law, who has been accused of ‘controlling’ her husband. However, taking to Instagram for the first time since his dad’s birthday, Brooklyn had only good things to say about her.

Praising the billionaire heiress for inspiring him to make his new hot sauce, he mused: “I was having a bottle of wine with my wife and she said: ‘You like hot sauce, you like design. Why don’t you make a hot sauce’.

Conceding he “didn’t really think much about it” until he watched a quick video”, he added: “I didn’t really think much about it and then I ordered a bunch of stuff and I watched a quick video on how to make a hot sauce. I then made the jalapeno one and I really liked it and I thought: ‘I really want to do something with this’.”

Brooklyn’s comments about his wife come after Nicola has been villainised by many following the couple’s no-show at David’s milestone.

Her Instagram post in which she flogs sun cream was hijacked on Tuesday, with several telling her she should be ashamed of herself for missing David’s big day.

However, a source tells the Mirror that the Transformers actress is actually the peacekeeper between Brooklyn and his family, saying: “Nicola encourages Brooklyn to see his family and is usually the reason Brooklyn does see his family. They are both devastated. They cannot believe that Victoria & David refused to see them privately after they travelled all the way to London specifically to try to repair the relationship.”

They added: “As parents, it’s shocking that Victoria & David are behaving this way… instead of privately discussing the issue. Victoria and David (appear to) have no interest in finding a solution that works for everyone.”

Brooklyn allegedly didn’t want to go to the big knees-up in London and the Cotswolds at the weekend because of Romeo’s girlfriend, Kim. The self confessed “nutter in the kitchen” is said to have questioned the DJ’s motives with his brother even though Cruz denied Brooklyn used to date Kim.

Romeo, Kim, Cruz and Harper all attended the birthday bash as Victoria shared snaps of her three kids and tagged them all – except Brooklyn.

Usually the mum-of-four will tell her firstborn that he was ‘missed’ if he can’t attend a family function, but made no mention of him at the weekend, leading fans to ask the artist formerly known as Posh Spice what was going on.

Prince Harry made his first public appearance since his bombshell interview, in which he exposed his strained relationship with his father, the King.

Prince Harry has talked about “fearless leadership” in an “apathetic world” on his first public appearance since his bombshell BBC interview. The Duke of Sussex, on his son Prince Archie’s sixth birthday, travelled to Las Vegas for an onstage discussion to launch a new initiative for The Diana Award.

There he heralded young leaders for standing up for themselves, just days after speaking out about his relationship with his father, the King. Last week, after losing a Court of Appeal challenge over his security arrangements in the UK, the duke gave a sit-down interview in which he said the King will not speak to him and he does not know how much longer his father, who is being treated for cancer, has left.

However, he noted that young people have an “adequate openness about mental health” that “previous generations struggled to express” at the Las Vegas event. Sikander “Sonny” Khan, from Michigan, US, and Christina Williams, both from Jamaica, who were also recipients of the Diana Legacy Award, said: “We’re in a time where we are looking for more companies to be serving the greater good – the majority, not the minority.

Every single young person has potential, they say. In a world where there is more empathy than there is before, from the perspective of the younger generation… It’s the empathy, the authenticity, the truth, the honesty, and the fearlessness…

We need “when they stand up for themselves and stand up for their communities.” Fearless leadership is required. Therefore, I commend both of you and what you stand for.

The Diana Award, a charity founded in honor of Harry and the late Prince of Wales’s mother, is initiating business investment pledges to support youth leadership. According to Harry, “far too many young people are stifled from leadership pipelines because of the lack of truly inclusive and accessible pathways.”

They are already taking the lead, he continued. They exhibit an emotional intelligence, social awareness, and honesty regarding mental illness that earlier generations struggled to express.

We must stop underestimating them and start listening if we want a better future. What sets them apart isn’t just their boldness, but also their refusal to accept the status quo.

Harry made his appearance shortly after losing his appeal to the UK over his security arrangements, and he stated in the TV interview that he “can’t see a world in which I would bring my wife and children back to the UK.”

He expressed hopes of a reconciliation with his family and told the BBC his court defeat was a “good old-fashioned establishment stitch-up” and that he could not see how he could bring his wife and children safely back to the UK.

The duke argued that the monarchy’s members were a form of “control,” stating that, “Depending on what happens next, today’s decision set a new precedent for how security can be used to control family members. Effectively, it prevents other family members from having the freedom to choose a different life.
