Nicola Peltz dad Nelson Peltz breaks silence amid Beckham–Peltz family rift: ‘Want them to enjoy a long, happy marriage’ | English Movie News
Nelson Peltz has stepped into the spotlight with candid remarks about the messy family feud rocking his daughter Nicola Peltz Beckham’s marriage to Brooklyn Beckham, praising his son-in-law while subtly sidestepping the deeper drama with David Beckham and Victoria Beckham. The billionaire activist, known for his high-profile shareholder battles, chose a public stage to set the record straight on the tensions that have simmered for years between the Peltz and Beckham clans, drawing fresh attention just days after Brooklyn Beckham’s explosive Instagram rant against his own parents.
Nelson Peltz weighs in
On February 3, 2026, at the WSJ Invest Live event in West Palm Beach, Florida, Nelson Peltz faced the hot seat head-on. “Brooklyn Beckham is a great son-in-law,” he said firmly, not mincing words. He elaborated, “He’s a really good kid, and I just want them to have a long, happy marriage together.” When pressed further on the tensions, Nelson Peltz stood his ground: “Nicola Peltz Beckham and Brooklyn Beckham are great together, I mean that. I just want them to enjoy a long, happy marriage.” No digs at David Beckham or Victoria Beckham, but plenty of love for his daughter and son-in-law. “Brooklyn Beckham treats her right; that’s all that matters to me,” Nelson Peltz added, wrapping it with that signature investor bluntness.
Brooklyn Beckham’s side
Brooklyn Beckham kicked things off with his January 19, 2026, Instagram post. “My parents tried to tear us apart from the very beginning,” Brooklyn Beckham vented. He spotlighted Victoria Beckham’s wedding dress bailout: “My wife was supposed to wear the dress that my mother designed… but for reasons I will never understand, my mother didn’t want to be involved.” Brooklyn Beckham also revealed pressure to “give up the rights to my own name.” “I’ve always been independent,” he stressed.
