Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham married in a lavish Miami ceremony in April 2022 and it’s been talked about ever since… but not for the reasons they may have wanted it to.
The couple said ‘I do’ among the world’s biggest names in an event hosted at the Peltz family’s $123 million, 44,000-square-foot oceanfront mansion in Palm Beach, Florida.
The 24-year-old son of David Beckham and Victoria Beckham and the 28-year-old model-actress-heiress daughter of Nelson Peltz – were plagued by rumors from the get-go, with countless headlines claiming Nicola Peltz and Posh Spice weren’t fond of each other.

She tagged Victoria in the snap, leading some to believe she is set to model the line in the show. Plus, it’s well and truly put and end to the feud rumors which have followed the pair since their 2022 wedding.

Here’s what’s going on with Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz Beckham, and why you’re still hearing about their wedding.
Claims Nicola Peltz was a ‘nightmare bride’
A new documentary has claimed Nicola was a “nightmare bride” when it came to the “total carnage” that the couple’s wedding planning allegedly was.
In the 45-minute special, Nicola is branded a “very, very insecure individual who is insecure of their career” – by celebrity wedding planner Mark Niemierko, who was not involved in the event – who came out of the infamous lawsuit against her former wedding planners looking “spoiled and entitled” (according to gossip site editor Chris Lochery).

Peltz Beckhams vs The Planners delves into the feud between the Peltz family and Nicola and Brooklyn’s former wedding planners, which saw Nelson sues Nicole Braghin and Arianna Grijalb of Plan Design Events, claiming they failed to return a $US159,000 (approx. $242,000) deposit after they were fired.

At the time, Bailey said he was “over-committed” to other eventsbut Bailey’s resignation is something Niemierko, who did not plan Nicola and Brooklyn’s wedding, hails as a red flag in the documentary.
“For (Bailey) to walk away would be quite considerable,” Niemierko claims in the documentary.
“The wedding handed to (Braghin and Grijalb) was a hot mess. A lot of alarm bells would have been ringing if I’d got that call.”
Bailey, Braghin and Grijalb have not publicly commented on the documentary’s claims.

Amid the legal drama came rumors of a feud between Nicola and her Spice Girls star mother-in-law – a ‘feud’ Nicola has publicly downplayed multiple times.
It was a modern-day Treaty of Versailles, which came in the form of a happy family snap shared days after Nicola and Brooklyn’s first wedding anniversary in April 2023, that showed the public the alleged family drama had been put to bed.
On Brooklyn and Nicola’s first wedding anniversary, which also coincided with Easter Sunday, the couple reportedly attended a “peace summit” with the wider Beckham and Peltz families,
That came more than a month later Nicola denied she was ever feuding with her mother-in-law in the first place.

Taking to Instagram days later, Brooklyn shared a snap captured by Vogue showing the newlyweds’ wedding ensembles.
“Mr. & Mrs. Peltz Beckham ❤️”, he wrote alongside the sweet black-and-white snap, which showed the duo holding hands.
The star-studded guest list included A-listers like Serena and Venus Williams and Eva Longoriaand although it was rumored that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were going to attend, the former senior royals did not show up on the day.
The after-ceremony festivities are understood to have been an affair to remember, with iconic rapper Snoop Dogg revealing previously he would be DJ-ing.
“Brooklyn’s wedding is going to be a big affair and my gift to him and his wife-to-be is I will come down and do a set for them on their big day,” the rapper, who is friends with David Beckham, told Mirror,
Brooklyn had his brothers Romeo, 21, and Cruz, 18, as his best men.

Brooklyn’s 10-year-old sister Harper was also part of the bridal party as a bridesmaid and David was the master of ceremonies.
In an interview with Vogue ahead of the big day, the couple explained they would be enjoying a Jewish ceremony, with Brooklyn wearing a ‘yarmulke’ on the day.
A yarmulke is a traditional skullcap worn by Orthodox Jewish men, or during prayer by other Jewish men. It is traditionally worn by men at important celebrations, including weddings.
The pair also reportedly incorporated other Jewish traditions into the wedding, including marrying under a chuppah and signing a ketubah, or marriage contract.
Nelson is Jewish, and the Nicolas grew up practicing the faith.
For their engagement, Nicola donned a gorgeous yellow dress from mother-in-law Victoria Beckham’s fashion line. However, she wore high couture for her wedding day, with her custom Valentino wedding dress being one of many Valentino outfit changes.
The mother of the bride, Claudia Peltz, was said to be orchestrating the glamorous affair. Among the lavish offerings for wedding guests, there reportedly was gourmet food creations by French chef Thierry Isambert.
The well-known caterer has previously worked with the likes of clients such as Dior, Fendi, Neiman Marcus, MTV and the Miami Heat.
His cuisine is described as “highly structured creations, based on classic 17th century European recipes, infused with a blend of Mediterranean, Caribbean and Pacific influences.”
