Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz Beckham renew vows amid rift with Beckhams

Published 14 August 2025

Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham renewed their vows in early August in a ceremony attended by Nicola’s family and officiated by her father, Nelson Peltz, while David and Victoria Beckham were notably absent. The private event, described by those close to the couple as a celebration of their years together, was interpreted by observers as a fresh marker in a long-running family rift that has kept the Beckhams at arm’s length from Brooklyn and Nicola’s inner circle.

The ceremony took place in Westchester County and featured Nicola wearing her mother’s vintage 1980s wedding dress, with Nelson Peltz officiating. In stark contrast, the Beckhams—David, Victoria, and Brooklyn’s siblings Cruz and Harper—were not invited and did not publicly acknowledge the event beforehand or afterward. Photographs circulated showing Brooklyn posing with Nicola’s family and friends, while the Beckhams appeared largely absent from the public-facing portions of the couple’s social-media recap. The timing and composition of the guest list underscored how the renewal has unfolded within the broader pattern of a widening divide between Brooklyn and his parents.
