Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz have renewed their wedding vows after three years, but people have pointed out a glaring omission from the guest list.
The renewal earlier this month was nothing short of glamorous, complete with a star-studded guest list, high-end fashion, and plenty of family, per the Daily Mail.
The vow renewal ceremony stood in stark contrast to Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding in 2022, which was a three-day, lavish affair in Palm Beach, Florida.
And one particular difference is that Brooklyn's family was at the wedding... but nowhere to be seen at the renewal.
David and Victoria Beckham, along with Brooklyn’s siblings - Romeo, Cruz, and Harper - were missing from the renewal celebrations, and this absence sparked widespread discussion.
Brooklyn’s family was reportedly unaware of the vow renewal, with the Beckhams enjoying a holiday in St. Tropez while Brooklyn and Nicola hosted their affair at the Peltz family estate in Westchester County, New York, on August 2.
Nicola’s family, including her billionaire father Nelson, who officiated the ceremony, was front and center during the celebration, per the Independent.
Brooklyn’s brothers, who had played key roles at his wedding in 2022, were notably replaced by Nicola’s brothers as groomsmen. The contrast in family involvement led to speculation on social media.
One person commented on Brooklyn's Instagram post: "As a mum of 2 adult children myself, I cannot even begin to imagine how David and Victoria are feeling right now. They must be utterly heartbroken."
A second added: "Heartbroken for your parents. You will regret this one day sadly."
A third person said: "Brooklyn you are blessed to have David and Victoria as your parents. Such an embarrassment what [you] are doing!"
Since Brooklyn's marriage to Nicola, there have been whispers of tension between him and his parents, particularly his mother Victoria.
Speculation about a rift intensified when Brooklyn and Nicola were noticeably absent from David Beckham’s 50th birthday celebration, which included high-profile guests like Tom Cruise, Guy Ritchie, and Gordon Ramsay.
Despite these rumors, both Victoria and Nicola have publicly denied any animosity between the families, with Victoria recently posting photos of the Beckham family celebrating Father’s Day.
Nicola, for her part, has rarely been seen with the Beckhams since her wedding to Brooklyn.
Reports from the Times also suggest that during the 2022 wedding, Nicola declined to wear one of Victoria Beckham’s designs, a decision she later explained by stating that Victoria’s atelier could not make the dress in time.
This detail, along with Brooklyn’s absence from key Beckham family events, has fueled rumors of tension.
The guest list at Brooklyn and Nicola’s vow renewal was equally telling. Many of the attendees were well-known figures from the acting, fashion, and beauty worlds - many of whom are closely connected to Nicola.

One group shot from the event showed a number of guests seemingly known to Brooklyn only through his wife, including actor Benny Buckley, who starred in Nicola’s film Lola, and Daniel Moon, the celebrity hairstylist.
Other notable faces included cinematographer Hunter Moreno, creative director Eran Shapov, and makeup artist Georgi Sandev, who has worked with top models like Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss.
These figures are part of a new inner circle that has clearly formed around Brooklyn and Nicola in Los Angeles.
The couple’s ties to this glamorous Hollywood set, along with the absence of Brooklyn’s former friends and entourage, only added fuel to speculation about his shifting loyalties.
