Victoria Beckham and Nicola Peltz locked in alleged rift after 'signs of distancing'

Victoria Beckham and her son's wife have shown 'signs of distancing', according to reports. Rumours are swirling that Nicola Peltz, who recently wedded Brooklyn Beckham, is locked in an alleged rift with her new mother-in-law.

The relationship between the two women is said to have diminished since the Beckhams famously co-hosted the young couple's £5million wedding in April.

And reports have now emerged that Victoria, David and their other children were not asked to sit at the top table at the lavish bash, according to the Mirror.

The position was instead taken up by Nicola's billionaire tycoon father Nelson and her fashion model mother Claudia and her siblings.

Victoria and Nicola's adoring social media displays have also ground to an abrupt halt in recent weeks, fans have clocked, while Brooklyn remains close to his in-laws, having recently had his beau's family named inked across his chest in huge black letters.

While the budding chef also invited Nicola's family to crash their recent honeymoon in south of France - and the Beckham clan were holidaying en mass in Croatia.

"There seems to be some sort of distance between the Beckham family and the Peltz clan," a source has told the Daily Mail.

The source also revealed that none of the Beckhams made it to the top table at the couple's wedding, in defiance of the long-standing tradition.

"The top table was all Peltzes and it really felt as though the Beckhams were not at the forefront. There was a feeling that the wedding was all about the Peltz family, as you can imagine, as it was their house and their daughter and their son making the speeches," the source added.

While others have noted that while Victoria designed her own and several high profile celeb dresses for the bash, bride Nicola snubbed her mother-in-law's own label in favour of Valentino, Versace and Dior.

Nicola also laughed off suggestion that she and Brooklyn would take inspiration from David and Victoria's infamous 90s nuptials.

"Their wedding was incredible, and the pictures were iconic, but the wedding we were most inspired by was Iman and David Bowie's," the bride told Vogue magazine.

Others have observed that Nicola and Victoria's once pally Instagram bond appears to have turned cold in recent weeks.

The former Spice Girl and fashion mogul showed her support in 2021 by liking a string of her future daughter-in-law's post, Posh hasn't liked a single one of Nicola's posts in two months - despite a slew of wedding spam.

It's also been noted Victoria 'ignored' posts of the couple at the Met Gala and updates from their lavish French honeymoon.

While Nicola didn't comment on any Father's Day posts about David in June or the recent birthday of 11-year-old Harper Beckham.

"Brooklyn and Nicola appear to be drawing away from the Beckhams. it's probably only natural but they were very close to Brooklyn as always.

"The Beckhams would not be the first parents to find it challenging when their children marry," a source told the Daily Mail.

A source close to the families told the paper the rumours were 'silly', pointing out that Victoria and David enjoyed a couples outing with the newlyweds in Venice in the last few weeks.

Mirror Online has contacted the Beckhams for comment.
