NY Magazine Argues Brooklyn Beckham Family Rift Tied to In-Laws’ Billions: “The Peltzes Are So Rich They Can Just Pay for it All”
Brooklyn Beckham made headlines in January for slamming his mother and father — David and Victoria Beckham — for controlling “narratives in the press about our family” and “trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding” to Nicola Peltz Beckham, daughter of company raider Nelson Peltz, in 2022.
Now, amid the Beckham household rift, a New York magazine profile on the eldest son of the well-known soccer participant makes an attempt to clarify why Brooklyn Beckham is not doubtless to depart behind Brand Beckham Peltz anytime quickly.

“What’s undeniable is that in the battle of oligarchy versus fame, Brooklyn is betting on oligarchy,” the function argues, noting that father in-law Peltz’s price was pegged by Forbes at round $1.5 billion.
Money and clout of that stature means Brooklyn Beckham apparently now not has to pose for images alongside his mother and father and siblings to drive public promotion and endorsements. “His own parents know very well that maintaining celebrity today is an exhausting, ceaseless game, even at the top,” the profile, entitled “What Broke the Beckhams?” states. “Why else would people as beloved and famous as they are still have to film Uber Eats ads referring to their glory days? Shill fruit snacks in Target?”
In his notorious Instagram Story put up earlier this yr, calling out his household and saying he did “not want to reconcile” with them, Brooklyn Beckham pleaded: “My wife and I do not want a life shaped by image, press or manipulation. All we want [is] peace, privacy and happiness for us and our future family.”
Replacing one rich father for one other in company raider Peltz apparently does simply that, as Brand Beckham Peltz is now assured of movie star and wealth with none unseemly promotional hustle. “The Peltzes are so rich that they can just pay for it all — reviews, financial success or public adoration doesn’t make or break what Nelson’s heirs decide to do with their lives,” the function continues.
The consequence has Brooklyn Beckham with a brand new restaurant enterprise, Beck’s Buns, within the works, and spouse Nicola’s movie manufacturing banner, Bunny Films, producing two extra films. That’s simply the beginning of his new plush life.
“For the moment, Brooklyn seems content to live as a nearly full-time wife guy. Nicola bought them a new $16 million house in Beverly Hills in 2024. They have been vacationing in Montecito and drinking $2,000 bottles of wine. The hostage situation, if it is one, doesn’t seem so bad,” the function concludes.
