Actress Nicola Peltz is offering a glimpse into her husband Brooklyn Beckham‘s bond with her family. The latter has an ongoing rift with his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, and has seemingly found comfort and support in his wife’s parents and siblings.

Nicola Peltz’s Parents Treat Her Husband As Their Own

In an interview with ELLE Spain published on March 20, Peltz shared how her husband, Beckham, fits into the Peltz’s lives. The actress said her parents, billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz and former model Claudia Heffner Peltz, treat Beckham like “another son.”

Peltz, who has six brothers, added that Bekcham also had a good relationship with his brothers. “He gets along really well with my brothers. They play soccer together a lot,” she shared.

In February, as reported by The Blast, Peltz’s father, Nelson, was asked about the ongoing tensions between Beckham and his parents. He said he advised the couple to “stay the hell out of the press” but didn’t elaborate further, saying instead, “I’ll tell you my daughter’s great, my son-in-law Brooklyn, is great, and I look forward to them having a long, happy marriage together.”

Nicola Peltz Met Brooklyn At A Party

Peltz said that she and Beckham crossed paths before, but never got to talking until years later at a Halloween party. According to the actress, Beckham was “staring” at her when she arrived, and they got to know each other.

Beckham was in Los Angeles at that time for 10 days, and as Peltz shared, she didn’t typically stay out late at night, preferring to sleep early. At that time, however, she ignored her habit and instead spent time with Beckham. “We were together until 10 in the morning, driving around the city, exploring… We made excuses not to be apart.”

Peltz told her mother about staying out late, and she told her, “If you’ve stayed up this late, he’s the one.”

Nicola Peltz And Brooklyn Beckham’s Wedding

Peltz and Beckham began dating in 2019. Eight months into their relationship, Beckham proposed, announcing their engagement on Instagram, writing, “I am the luckiest man in the world. I promise to be the best husband and the best daddy one day.”

The couple got married in a star-studded ceremony in 2022. The wedding was at the Peltz’s family estate in Palm Beach, Florida, and they celebrated with almost 600 guests, as reported by PEOPLE. Some of the stars who attended include Marc Anthony, Eva Longoria, Serena and Venus Williams, and Gordon Ramsay.

At that time, there were already rumors circulating about Peltz and her mother-in-law not getting along, but the actress said it may have stemmed from her wearing a Valentino gown instead of one created by Victoria. She clarified the situation, saying that she wanted to wear a Victoria Beckham creation, but the atelier didn’t have the time to make one, so she picked the Valentino.

Brooklyn Beckham Accused His Parents Of Disrespecting His Wife

In January, Beckham released a statement on Instagram Stories. He accused his family of “consistently disrespecting” Peltz, writing that the night before their wedding, the Beckhams told him that Peltz “was ‘not blood’ and ‘not family’.”

Moreover, Beckham claimed Victoria “hijacked” his first dance with Peltz. “In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead.” He added that Victoria danced “very inappropriately.”

In regard to the wedding dress, Brooklyn said that her mother had cancelled making Peltz’s dress “in the eleventh hour,” which forced her to find a new one to wear. “I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he noted.

Brooklyn Beckham Remains Estranged From His Family

Beckham has avoided his family since his scathing statement, choosing to ignore them when they extended an olive branch. On his birthday in early March, both Victoria and David greeted him on social media, posting photos of themselves together with their son during happier times and telling him they love him.

Peltz also posted on Instagram for Beckham’s birthday, sharing how he surprised her husband with donuts and balloons. While Beckham responded to his wife’s post, he chose to ignore his parents’ birthday greetings.

On March 15, UK’s Mother’s Day, Beckham posted a photo on Instagram Stories, greeting his mother-in-law, who celebrated her birthday on March 12. “Happy birthday to the best mother in law x,” he wrote. Meanwhile, he didn’t give a shout-out to Victoria.

After winning the Best Actor Academy Award for his performance in Christopher Nolan‘s Oppenheimer a couple of years ago, Cillian Murphy has had a rather interesting string of releases. Only one out of his three post-Oscar films, Small Things Like These, was able to secure a theatrical release. But it came and went without making much impact. Two others were released directly on Netflix. While the first, Steve, didn’t exactly set the charts on fire, Murphy’s second Netflix movie in a row seems to be having no problem with attracting audiences. It was a sure thing after all, even if it didn’t immediately scream post-Oscar passion project. The movie earned positive reviews, and was given a limited theatrical run in the United Kingdom a few weeks before its Netflix debut on March 20.

A report suggested that Netflix could have made as much as $50 million in the U.K. alone by giving the film a proper theatrical run, as opposed to the token release that it ultimately received. In its first weekend in British theaters, the movie outgrossed Scream 7 and The Bride!, which were playing in a significantly higher number of venues. The crime drama serves as a follow-up to one of Netflix’s most popular shows, Peaky Blinders, which aired six seasons from 2013 to 2022 and has since established itself as a fan-favorite. The show charted the trials and tribulations of an outlaw family in early 20th-century England. A follow-up series is currently in the works as well.

‘Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man’ Unseated Alan Ritchson’s Hit

The movie in question, of course, is Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man. It also features Rebecca Ferguson, Tim Roth, and Barry Keoghan, alongside returning players from the series. It’s directed by Tom Harper, who previously worked with Netflix on the would-be franchise-starter Heart of Stone, starring Gal Gadot. The Immortal Man holds a “Certified Fresh” 92% score on the aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, where the critics’ consensus reads, “Capping off Tommy Shelby’s story with grit and swagger, The Immortal Man is a satisfying conclusion to Peaky Blinders that also stands tall on its own self-contained terms.” Unsurprisingly, it was the number one movie across Netflix on its opening day, both domestically and worldwide. According to FlixPatrol, The Immortal Man unseated holdover champion War Machine, starring Alan Ritchson, from the streamer’s number one spot. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Nicholas Brendon is dead at age 54.

“We are heartbroken to share the passing of our brother and son, Nicholas Brendon,” the actor’s family told Us Weekly in a Friday, March 20, statement, noting that Brendon died in his sleep of “natural causes.” (The Hollywood Reporter was the first to report the news.)

“Most people know Nicky for his work as an actor and for the characters he brought to life over the years. In recent years, Nicky has found his passion in painting and art,” the statement continued. “Nicky loved to share his enthusiastic talent with his family, friends and fans. He was passionate, sensitive, and endlessly driven to create. Those who truly knew him understood that his art was one of the purest reflections of who he was.”

Brendon’s family shared that while it is “no secret” he “had struggles in the past,” he was “on medications and treatment to manage his diagnosis and he was optimistic about the future at the time of his passing.”
