Brooklyn Beckham's billionaire father-in-law Nelson Peltz is weighing in on the Beckham’s family feud.
On Tuesday (Feb. 3) while speaking at the WSJ Invest Live event in West Palm Beach, Florida, Peltz was asked about 26-year-old Brooklyn publicly criticizing his parents, David and Victoria Beckham.
"My advice is to stay the hell out of the press," he said, per TMZ, before joking, "Has my family been in the press lately? I haven't noticed at all."
Peltz also offered supportive words about the couple, saying Nicola and Brooklyn are doing well and that he looks forward to them "having a long, happy marriage together."
His comments arrive after Brooklyn went public last month with a series of Instagram Story posts accusing his parents of long-running manipulation and dishonesty.
"I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private. Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed,” he wrote at the time. “I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled, I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
Further into his posts, Brooklyn claims his parents have long curated a public image that does not match his lived experience, alleging that narratives about the family were manufactured to protect what he calls a “facade.”
Much of his anger centers on events surrounding his wedding to Nicola Peltz, 31, including claims that his parents pressured him to sign away rights to his name shortly before the ceremony, attempted to “ruin” the marriage, and treated Nicola as an outsider.
He also describes moments he says were humiliating, including his mother taking over his planned first dance at the wedding, writing that he had "never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated" and that the experience left lasting emotional damage.
