Nicola

BROOKLYN Beckham has promised to “forever protect” his wife Nicola Peltz in a gushing post amid the ongoing family feud.

It comes after Brooklyn made a bombshell statement where he accused his parents, Sir David Beckham and Victoria Beckham, of trying endlessly to ruin his relationship in a social media post in January.

Brooklyn took to Instagram and posted a black and white image which showed the couple sharing a tender kiss.

Brooklyn was seen shirtless which showed off his tattoos and Nicola was dressed in a crop top and jeans.

He captioned the sweet snap: “Happy Valentine’s Day baby, I am the luckiest person in the world to be able to call you my Valentine’s every year.

“I love you more than you know and I will forever protect and love you.”

HARP TO HEART

Caring Harper sends heartfelt message to Brooklyn in bid to heal bitter feud

Brooklyn sent a clear message to Gordon Ramsay this weekend after the chef publicly urged him to “remember where he came from” amid his ongoing family row with his mum and dad. 

In an exclusive interview with The Sun this week, Gordon revealed that, despite being close mates with David Beckham, he had maintained contact with Brooklyn after his family fallout alongside wife, Nicola Peltz.

Gordon praised his “incredible heart” but warned that his eagerness to “forge his own path” had him in danger of forgetting “where he came from”. 

However, within hours of the interview being published, Brooklyn added his former mentor to the list of people he’s now unfollowed on Instagram. 

At the time of writing, Gordon is still following Brooklyn, meaning that he’s not been blocked by the 26-year-old. 

During our interview with Gordon, he opened up about what was going on inside the Beckham household, and his belief that things at some point will smooth over.

“It’s a very difficult situation,” he explained. “Victoria is upset, and I know 24/7, seven days a week, just how much David loves Brooklyn.

“Brooklyn and I have messaged a little bit, our relationship is solid. I love him – his heart is incredible – but it’s hard, isn’t it, when you’re infatuated? 

“Love is blind. It’s easy to get up on that rollercoaster, and get carried away. But it will come back.” 

In his bombshell statement, Brooklyn claimed his mum danced “inappropriately” on him at his lavish wedding in 2022.

He has also blocked his parents and siblings, Romeo, 23, Cruz, 20, and Harper, 14, on social media.

The Beckham family have continued to make small gestures in a bid to reach out to Brooklyn – despite his public six-page statement cutting all ties from the family.

His little sister Harper made a post sending a “Happy Valentines to the best big brothers in the world”, sharing a throwback snap of her as a young child with Brooklyn, as well as brothers Romeo and Cruz.

Victoria later reposted the photograph on her own Instagram Stories, but Brooklyn has not publicly responded.

Earlier this week Cruz also reached out to Brooklyn, with a throwback of the three brothers as children, something he also ignored.

However, Gordon Ramsay has insisted that his good friend David will end the ongoing feud with his son Brooklyn.

GORDON Ramsay has hailed David and Victoria Beckham as fantastic parents — and said time will help Brooklyn heal their heartbreaking family feud.

The Michelin-starred restauranteur, 59, said he loves the aspiring chef, 26, and has been in contact offering support.

He also spoke for the first time about that dance at Brooklyn’s 2022 wedding to Nicola Peltz – which he attended alongside wife Tana.

Loyal Gordon, a long-time family friend, said: “It’s a very difficult situation.

“Victoria is upset, and I know 24/7, seven days a week, just how much David loves Brooklyn.

“Brooklyn and I have messaged a little bit, our relationship is solid. I love him – his heart is incredible.

I know just how many times they have got Brooklyn out of the s***

Gordon on David and Victoria’s parenting

“I’ve seen first-hand just how good parents they are. David as a dad is just incredible.

“They’ve both put so much energy into their kids, and I know just how many times they’ve got Brooklyn out of the s***.

“I think it’s going to be a matter of time before Brooklyn takes a good look at himself and understands just what his parents mean to him.

“He’s desperate to forge his own way, and I respect that from him. It’s such a good thing to do.

“But remember where you came from. And honestly, one day you’re not going to have your mum and dad, and you need to understand that.

“That penny will drop.

“I just want Brooklyn to take a moment to himself. And remember: you’re half mum, half dad. And you’re an amazing young man.

“But, boy, they’ve done more for you than anyone did in your entire life.

‘Time the best healer’

”Time’s going to be the best healer, and David will absolutely get that relationship back on track.”

While Brooklyn has blocked many of his relatives on Instagram, he and Gordon still follow one another.

The chef, who has almost 20million followers, has backed Brooklyn’s cooking endeavours where others were quick to mock.

Meanwhile, Posh and Becks and Gordon and Tana have been pals for nearly 2½ decades.

Of course, Gordon knows about family feuds in the wake of his recent troubles with new son-in-law Adam Peaty’s clan.

He and Tana also went through hell when her dad, Chris Hutcheson, was jailed for six months in 2017 for hacking company computers.

Gordon says: “Tana and I sat them down, and we buried the hatchet with her parents. It’s family, it’s what you do.”

In his damning statement last month, Brooklyn accused his mum of “dancing inappropriately” on him at his wedding.

His friends allege that she “grinded” on the groom. She has since become victim to hundreds of mocking memes.

However unnamed “friends” of the Beckhams hit back at the allegations. Over to Gordon, then, to set the record straight.

He says: “There was nothing salacious. There was nothing inappropriate. Everyone was having fun, having a dance.”

But, Gordon, DID SHE GRIND?

He says: “No! Nothing of the sort. It was fun. I haven’t seen any of the memes, I heard about them of course, but Victoria’s got a great sense of humour.

“She’s great. She’s right to be upset (about the wedding) but she can bat that other s*** away in a heartbeat.

“Victoria and Tana have spoken a lot, they are probably closer than ever – they’re like two peas in a pod, those two.”

When Gordon isn’t playing ace therapist/mediator, he’s been pretty busy on his own terms.

On Wednesday his new six-part Netflix documentary Being Gordon Ramsay airs, detailing his efforts to launch his latest ambitious project.

Britain’s highest eaterie, Restaurant Gordon Ramsay High is on the 60th floor of skyscraper 22 Bishopsgate in the City of London.

I never ever watch myself on telly because it’s just incredibly nerve-wracking.

The intimate 12-seater chef’s table experience has already earned him another Michelin star. 

I’ve seen the show, and it’s brilliant, giving a fly-on-the-wall look into Gordon’s frenetic and fabulous home life – he and Tana have six kids – as well as the hell of getting a new business off the ground.

He smiles: “I won’t watch it. I never ever watch myself on telly because it’s just incredibly nerve-wracking.

“When you’ve done it and lived it, the last thing you want to do is sit there with lots of popcorn. There’s a level of embarrassment.”

‘Getting softer with age’

Even without Gordon’s viewership, it is sure to be another Netflix smash. Contrary to his bravado, away from the kitchen, and whisper it, but Gordon is a bit of a pussycat, and definitely “getting softer with age”.

He regularly cries, he admits.

He turns 60 in November but in the doc we see super-fit Gordon running outdoors with his young son, Oscar, in the gym and pumping weights. He is ripped.

Wife Tana also recently smashed a Half Ironman in Greece, breezily qualifying for the World Championships in the process. They are a truly impressive power duo, and very clearly still massively in love.

Having trained under Marco Pierre White at the age of 35 Gordon set up his first restaurant, winning three Michelin stars shortly after. He now has eateries across the globe, and is arguably the planet’s most famous chef.

His work ethic is relentless – possibly a result of his humble upbringing. In one episode, Gordon gets emotional recalling his own childhood struggles, growing up on a council estate near Glasgow, and relying on school vouchers to eat.

Today, he has teamed up with a fantastic charity, Feeding Britain, to provide 800,000 kids in poverty with affordable food. Gordon has quietly donated “very heavily” to it.

He recalls: “I was hungry all the time, there was no food in the house.

“I was sometimes too embarrassed to use my vouchers to get my free shepherd’s pie in case, you know, aged 15 or 16, a girl I fancied saw me. I was a skinny f***ng bean.

I remember eating toothpaste thinking that was delicious because there were multiple nights where we never ate. It is appalling that we’re in this situation now.”

Meanwhile, Gordon has been a rock for 26-year-old daughter Holly’s new husband, Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty.

Last weekend Gordon said he’d treated the Peaty family “like royalty”, prompting a furious robust from Adam’s estranged mum, Caroline, who was not invited to his and Holly’s December wedding.

She labelled the Ramsays “bullies”. ”I am certainly not a bully, and it is so appalling to even suggest there was any bullying,” he sighs.

“That’s absolute nonsense. It was sad to see that barrage of negativity that was self-propelled by them.

“But Adam is an incredible young lad and he and Holly are a wonderful, happy, young couple.”

So, would Gordon fancy being a grandad?

He says: “Jesus Christ. They’re still on their f***ing honeymoon!

“But I do laugh sometimes when I’m in the park with [two-year-old son] Jesse.

“I was taking him to a football match last Saturday, and then this lady said, ‘Oh, it must be so nice to have the grandkids at the weekend!’

“And I’m like, ‘Are you f***ing serious woman? Grandkids?! That’s my son!’”

• Being Gordon Ramsay is available on Netflix from Wednesday.

60th WILL BE ADELE OF A PARTY

THE very sweary superstar — I counted 27 f***s in the new documentary’s first episode – hopes superstar singer Adele will bring birthday cheer on his 60th in November.

Obviously, for a man not feted for his thriftiness, there will be a huge party, also celebrating his 30th anniversary with Tana.

“We are hoping Adele will sing,” he grins. “Tana loves Adele and I saw her in Vegas when she was playing the Colosseum, and she was a customer of ours in Chelsea.

“She is an incredibly gracious, talented woman, and a real foodie. She loves that kind of fine dining style.”

VICTORIA and Nicola clashed again this week – but for once it wasn’t with each other. 

The pair released brand new modelling shoots on exactly the same day as they made a bid to put Brooklyn’s statement behind them. 

Nicola has been signed up as the face of Italian fashion brand Genny to front their new Spring/Summer 2026 collection. 

As well as a pink trouser suit, Nicola wore a number of elaborate, colourful gowns for the brand.

Victoria meanwhile launched her debut eyewear range on the same day. 

She posed up in a pair of her own frames and said: “I wanted strong, instantly recognisable silhouettes that felt effortless to wear, so the focus for this collection was really on refining shape and proportion.”

It came just one day after David signed a huge 20-year deal for creating fragrances. 

He entered a new agreement with Interparfums, Inc to make scents under his brand. 

David said: “Together with their world-leading team, we will create products that are distinctive and timeless. I can’t wait to get started.” 

The family feud exploded after Brooklyn accused mum Victoria of ruining his wedding by dancing “inappropriately on me in front of everyone”.

Brooklyn, who wed actress Nicola Peltz in April 2022, said: “I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”

The aspiring chef, 26, shared a furious tirade on Instagram in a move to defend his wife Nicola, and himself, amid the bitter family feud.

In six blistering posts on his Instagram stories, he claimed dad David and Victoria have been trying to “endlessly ruin my relationship” with Nicola.

NICOLA Peltz gets a staggering $1 million-a-month allowance from her billionaire father, according to new claims.

The actress’ husband Brooklyn Beckham may come from one of the most famous families in the world but her family have them beat when it comes to wealth. 

Peltz family patriarch Nelson, 83, has a net worth of $1.6 billion while David, 50, and 51-year-old Victoria’s combined is thought to be around half of that. 

Journalist Marina Hyde said on The Rest is Entertainment podcast: “From what I hear I think the Beckhams give Brooklyn a lot of money but not insane money and they have this dream to some degree that he will stand on his own two feet and become independent.

“Maybe Nelson Peltz would deny this but I hear that he said to them, ‘I give my daughter a million dollar a month allowance’.

“The one thing they [the Beckhams] didn’t think their children would be doing would be the ones signing the prenuptial, they thought it would be the other way round.”

SIBLING SAGA

Nicola Peltz wanted Harper to be ‘my little sister so bad’ despite family feud

The Sun has contacted Nicola’s rep for comment.

If the claims are true, Nicola and Brooklyn appear to be enjoying spending her dad’s hard-earned cash, with them sipping on the world’s ‘most expensive wine’ during a romantic date night this week.

The Sun revealed last year how Nicola, 31, and Brooklyn, 26, had bought a £11 million Hollywood mansion – but that she is the primary owner.

And money appeared to be the beginning of the problems between the Peltz family and the Beckhams, with the former branding the latter “tight” for not matching Nelson penny for penny when it came to buying their children the home.

A source told us at the time: “Certainly, in the case of the ­Beckhams vs Peltzes, it’s proven… tricksy. David and Victoria are two working-class kids done good.

“They have grafted hard for their money and understand that with privilege comes responsibility.

“On principle, they will not needlessly spoil their kids and have taught them the value of both industry and money. They’re like Gordon and Tana Ramsay in that regard.

“So, when it came to buying this house, of course they weren’t just going to hand their son millions of pounds — what sort of message does that send?

“Nelson Peltz, on the other hand, is a billionaire investor and he and his wife Claudia regard Nicola, their little girl, as the apple of their eye.

“Understandably, they want to indulge her and ensure she never struggles — they expected the ­Beckhams, worth half a billion ­themselves, might match them penny for penny. Or, at least, chip in with financials as and when.

“That hasn’t always happened, so they are annoyed and telling people it’s a bit tight.”

The Sun revealed last week how Brooklyn had been made to sign a pre-nup before his 2022 wedding, stopping him staking a claim on any of her family’s money in the unlikely case they separate.

We also told how the Beckhams fear they won’t speak to their eldest son again while he’s married to Nicola, following his bombshell six-page social media statement.

A source said: “Despite everything that’s happened, David and Victoria still love their son.

“He will always be their boy, and there will always be a place for him in their home.

“They have tried everything in their power to mend their relationship with him and it hasn’t worked.

“Now it feels like there is no going back while he is still with Nicola.”

NICOLA Peltz Beckham allegedly struggled to call her husband’s parents by their names in an interview given just months after their Palm Beach wedding.

The model and actress sat down with journalist Polly Barton for an interview with The Times in October 2022, six months on from their star-studded nuptials.

Following on from Brooklyn Beckham’s explosive Instagram statements, Nicola’s interview was republished this week with Polly making fresh claims about Nicola’s comments and what she believes really went down during the wedding dress row.

In a new op-ed for Grazia, Barton revealed that Nicola had trouble referring to her groom’s parents by their first names.

“I was struck by Nicola’s borderline inability to speak either David or Victoria’s names,” she wrote.

“The ‘she, Victoria, uh’ in the above quote, was as direct as it got, otherwise, it was just ‘Brooklyn’s mom’ or ‘dad’.”

Nicola referred to Victoria as she, and then corrected herself and called her by her full name when explaining the reason why she didn’t end up wearing a wedding dress by the fashion designer.

‘The truth is that I was in a text chain with my mom, Victoria and Leslie, who’s been my stylist for 10 years,” Nicola began.

“We all were on this tech chain together, and I was so excited to start the design process.

“Um, and then Victoria, um, was like… Oh! And this was in the middle of me filming [her directorial debut] Lola James!

“So I was very busy. And then she, Victoria, uh, was very busy, and then we started this text chain, and a few days went by, and I didn’t hear anything, then I think Victoria thought since I was on set, maybe she didn’t want to upset me, so she called my mom and said that she couldn’t make the dress.

“She said that her, um, atelier couldn’t make the dress in time,” she concluded.

A key revelation from Brooklyn’s social media statements saw him accuse his mum of pulling out of designing Nicola a wedding gown at the last minute.

‘My mum cancelled making Nicola’s dress in the eleventh hour despite how excited she was to wear her design, forcing her to urgently find a new dress,” Brooklyn wrote.

Re-examining Nicola’s quotes from her interview now, Polly feels that Nicola was actually let down by Victoria over the wedding dress, although the full reasons remain unknown.

“That statement reads like a massaging of the rather ugly truth Brooklyn described on Instagram; his mother just not making the dress she’d promised,” Polly writes.

In the original interview, Nicola made it clear she was initially excited to wear a custom Victoria Beckham wedding gown, before later revealing how it didn’t happen.

‘I really, really wanted to wear [a Victoria Beckham dress] and I thought it was so beautiful that Brooklyn’s mom got to make that for me!” she said back in 2022.

“And I was really excited to wear it! And I didn’t end up wearing it.”

Signing off his tell-all statements, Brooklyn publicly told his parents that they can only contact him through lawyers going forward after growing increasingly frustrated by them mentioning him on social media.

On Monday, Victoria and David put on a united front in Paris in wake of the ongoing row.

The former Spice Girl received the Chevalière de l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres — Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters – regarded as one of France‘s top honours.

The couple attended the event with their three other children, Romeo, Cruz and Harper, with Romeo and Cruz’s girlfriends, Kim Turnbull and Jackie Apostel also making an appearance to support Victoria.

Unsurprisingly, Brooklyn and Nicola snubbed the event and did not congratulate Posh – instead choosing to share a loved-up video to Instagram.

It contained a montage of lovey-dovey videos from Brooklyn and Nicola’s recent outings including packing on the PDA, walking her dog and dining out at a restaurant.
