Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have shared photos from their secret vow renewal ceremony, officiated by Nicola’s father, Nelson. While Brooklyn’s parents were absent due to their ongoing feud, Nicola’s parents played key roles in the event.
The ceremony, held on Nelson’s estate in Westchester County on August 2, saw the 83-year-old billionaire take center stage. Brooklyn and Nicola originally married in a lavish £3million wedding in 2022, which marked the beginning of tension with his parents.
After controversially choosing a Valentino gown over a dress designed by her mother-in-law, Victoria Beckham, in 2022, Nicola once again chose to wear her mother Claudia’s vintage 1985 bridal gown for their vow renewal. This decision seems to send a subtle message to the Beckhams, with whom Nicola and Brooklyn have grown increasingly distant, especially after they missed his father’s 50th birthday celebrations in May.
For this ceremony, Nicola wore a bridal-style gown featuring flower embellishments on the shoulders and puff sleeves, paired with a matching veil. The Beckhams had previously been upset with the Peltzes in 2022, feeling that they were overshadowing the wedding.
Since their lavish wedding in April 2022, Brooklyn and Nicola have rarely been seen with the Beckhams, and the two families haven’t reunited. On Monday, the couple shared pictures from their vow renewal ceremony on Instagram, captioned with “only love.” Nicola wore the same $1.8 million engagement ring, adding a sparkling filter to highlight its shine.
They also posted a video of their low-key proposal on TikTok, set to a song by Ysabelle Cuevas with the caption “Lost in your eyes…”
Brooklyn called the vow renewal a “really beautiful experience” and confessed he’s still completely smitten with Nicola. He said he’d happily do it “every single day” if he could, describing the moment as about creating a “really cute memory” to cherish forever.
During the ceremony, Nicola and Brooklyn exchanged longer vows than at their original wedding. Brooklyn joked that this could be an issue for his already-inked tribute to her.
Brooklyn described their vow renewal as “beautiful” and said it was all about creating a “really cute memory” with Nicola. He shared that he’d happily renew his vows with her every day, believing that finding the person you want to spend your life with shapes who you are. He called the experience “really, really cute” and “really fun.”
Brooklyn, who already has his first set of vows tattooed on his arm, joked that he’ll have to “find space” for the new vows.
The ceremony was a stark contrast to their grand wedding, with the couple opting for a smaller, more intimate gathering surrounded by their four dogs. Despite their celebrity status, Brooklyn said their favorite nights are spent at home, cooking and sipping wine together.
The couple started dating in October 2019, went Instagram official soon after, and by July 2020, Brooklyn proposed. He also took a moment to remind fans not to stress about life timelines, sharing that he didn’t discover his career passion until his early twenties and now proudly owns a hot sauce brand, Cloud23.Brooklyn credited Nicola for playing a key role in his business journey, encouraging him to explore food after he expressed uncertainty about his career path. It all began one night when he “got really drunk” and decided to experiment with making hot sauce in their kitchen. That drunken experiment soon evolved into a full-fledged business after Brooklyn saw a gap in the market for high-end hot sauces with clean ingredients.
His brand now offers two flavors: Hot Habanero and Sweet Jalapeño, both of which were featured at his recent Airbnb Originals Experience event in Los Angeles. At the party, guests enjoyed spicy pickle martinis made with his sauce before learning how to make chimichurri with celebrity chef Aaron May.
Brooklyn’s favorite dish to cook is spaghetti bolognese, but with a twist. He adds a whole bottle of red wine—and even the cork—into the pot for good luck. He shared that the cheapest red wine works best for bolognese, and he also tosses in 10 bay leaves before marinating it for five hours.
When entertaining, Brooklyn revealed that candles, good music, and low lighting are essential for setting the right atmosphere.
While Brooklyn and Nicola have kept their distance, David and Victoria Beckham have been enjoying their annual summer break aboard their £16 million yacht in Europe. The couple, however, spent time on a much larger £85 million vessel, which overshadowed his parents’ yacht the week before.
The family has been facing tension lately, with reports claiming that Brooklyn has grown increasingly estranged from his famous parents. This has been further highlighted by his absence at any of David’s 50th birthday celebrations in May.
Additionally, sources close to Brooklyn shared that his brothers, Cruz and Romeo, have even blocked him and Nicola on social media.
This behavior aligns with the fact that Brooklyn and Nicola are still following Victoria and David on social media, despite the ongoing tension.
Brooklyn also chose not to wish either of his parents, Victoria or David, a happy birthday on social media, which is unusual for the Beckham family, known for their public displays of affection.
In contrast, he shared a heartfelt post for his father-in-law, Nelson, wishing him a happy birthday with a photo of himself and Nicola, captioned: “Happy birthday Nelson x We love you.”
