Friends of Victoria and David Beckham rally around the couple saying they went to great efforts to support their daughter-in-law
David and Victoria Beckham are “deeply sad” about the rift which has emerged between them and their daughter-in-law as pals insisted they “pulled out all the stops” to make it work.
Sources close to son Brooklyn’s wife Nicola Peltz have suggested that her in-laws have not been supportive of her career, and have been unwelcoming.
But friends close to the couple say they have backed Nicola “at every opportunity” and that there was “no anger but just a deep sense of sorrow about how things have turned out.”
The source added: “They have gone above and beyond to help Nicola with her endeavours.”
Victoria, 51, attended the premiere of Nicola’s film Lola in Los Angeles last year and posed on the red carpet arm in arm with her. She was also at the London screening to promote the film, along with the rest of the family: David, 50, Harper, 13, Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20.
“Victoria was even on crutches after injuring her foot but wouldn’t miss it for the world as she knew how important it was for Nicola, and her son,” a friend says.
After the LA premiere, Victoria wrote: “We could not be more proud of you. Congratulations on your incredible film……kisses.” In another post, she said: “We’re so proud of you and all your hard work.”
David was equally supportive of his daughter-in-law on social media to help promote his daughter-in-law’s film, friends said.
A pal said: “Lets not forget that David has 88million Instagram followers, and he was repeatedly promoting Nicola’s film, and expressing his love for her and the project. Privately, too, he was of course very supportive as well.”
David even sent his love to Nicola when her dog died and shared a post written by Nicola talking about her heartache.
The friend said: “Again, does this strike you as someone who is uncaring and not accepting of Nicola into the family.”
The Mirror told this week how a rift had opened up after Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30 snubbed David’s 50th bash at the swanky Core restaurant in London’s Notting Hill. Sources close to Nicola insist that the reason for the no-show was because Romeo’s girlfriend Kim Turnbull, 25, and Brooklyn once had a “brief romantic connection” and didn’t approve of her. They claim the Beckhams instead “chose Romeo’s girlfriend over family.”
But a friend of the Beckhams said: “Kim and Brooklyn did not date and she has nothing to do with any of this. In any case, why did Brooklyn not go to the Cotswolds party where Kim wasn’t there…or the Scottish fishing trip with his dad and other brothers. It doesn’t make sense.”
One source connected to the family said earlier this week of the Brooklyn no-show: “It was a real blow to David. Brooklyn was close with his dad growing up but he is married now…things have escalated in recent months and there is a very obvious rift that David and Victoria would love to heal.”
