Nicola Peltz 'reaches out' to Beckhams as she dons David's football shorts

Fans have been left wondering if Nicola Peltz has finally reached out to the Beckhams after donning a pair of Brooklyn's dad David's football shorts.

Speculation of tension between Victoria and David and their son and his wifewas initially sparked by an incident over a wedding dress and, three years on, LA-based Brooklyn and his wife have now reportedly cut contact altogether. But there has been a subtle hint dropped that Nicola could be open to patching things up.

Brooklyn did not attend any of David's celebrations and failed to mark his long awaited knighthood or Father's Day. He is expected to be a no-show for sister Harper’s 14th birthday this week as he and his wife continue to celebrate her father's 83rd celebrations in America.

But has she sent a message back to Britain? The model donned the England football shorts from the 90s as she took a selfie on the family yacht as she paid tribute to her family. Then, she showed her followers her Pop Mart dolls lined up in a row, and she wrote: "our little family", with a telling second snap, which she captioned: "My mom just gets it."

Talk of tensions between Brooklyn and his partner with his mum and dad started in 2022 around the time of Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding – and until now there have been no signs of it ending any time soon. Brooklyn, 26, is still celebrating the birthday of Nicola’s billionaire dad, who she called “most loving father”, just a few weeks after missing his own dad’s star-studded 50th bash in the UK.

It is unlikely the couple will end their UK exile on Thursday for Harper's big day with Brooklyn expected to be missing from the celebrations once again. Our source said that while the family fallout is mainly between Brooklyn and his parents, his younger siblings – including birthday girl Harper – have sadly become collateral damage.

“Harper’s been particularly affected by what’s going on because she’s always been really close to Brooklyn,” claimed the source. “They’ve always had a lovely bond because Brooklyn was that bit older when Harper was born and the hope when Brooklyn married Nicola was that she’d become like a big sister to Harper in a house full of brothers.

"But obviously that hasn’t happened and it’s potentially going to be heartbreaking for Harper if Brooklyn doesn’t show up for her on her birthday.” As Brooklyn and his model and actress wife celebrated financier Nelson Peltz’s 83rd birthday with Nicola’s family in Bedford, New York, Victoria, 51, and David, 50, were back at home in the UK.

Nicola, 30, later posted a snap to her social media of herself with her dad and Brooklyn, and wrote a gushing tribute to Nelson which said, “I am so lucky to be your daughter, you’re the most loving and supportive father I could ever dream of… Thank you for always being there for us – our constant love and support.”

If Brooklyn fails to acknowledge his little sister’s birthday in any significant way, it will become the latest in a string of family events that have so far failed to repair the Beckham rift. After missing David’s pre-birthday celebrations in the Cotswolds and Paris, Brooklyn and Nicola were also absent from his star-studded dinner party at the Michelin-starred west London restaurant.

David was joined by some of his closest showbiz pals, including Tom Cruise, Eva Longoria and Guy Ritchie, and was treated to a performance by son Cruz, 20, on his guitar, while Romeo, 22, was tasked with the job of carrying in David’s cake.

Given that Brooklyn also failed to acknowledge his father’s big milestone on any of his social media channels, our source claimed the chances of him “showing up for Harper” are looking pretty slim.

“A teenage birthday is a big deal for any child and in the past they’ve always tried to do things together as a family,” said the source. “Victoria would like nothing more than for Brooklyn to show up to celebrate with them all, but it’s not looking likely at all.
