The rift between Posh and Becks and their daughter-in-law Nicola is such that they only discovered the renewal of wedding vows online.It appears they were not the only ones left off the guest list for the extravagant celebration, which saw up to 200 attendees. The aftermath has caused concern among friends, with one sharing their “fear, worry and utter, utter devastation” for Brooklyn with the media.It seems none of the Beckham crowd were invited, but most of the Peltz family were(Image: INSTAGRAM)They told the Mail Online: “A point has now been reached where it’s actually no longer about a feud. There is much confusion, fear, worry and utter, utter devastation that this happened without Brooklyn telling any of his family.”Far from fuelling a feud, it is just very, very worrying for everyone who loves him. They are worried about what is going on over there in the States.”Article continues belowIt’s understood that Brooklyn’s brothers Romeo and Cruz were also unwelcome at the August 2 event. Another friend suggested the brothers have been “fanning the flames” as the feud, which first surfaced around David’s 50th birthday, continues to intensify.However, the original source revealed to Mail Online that most of the fury has shifted to genuine worry following the vow renewal ceremony.Brooklyn is now missing family trips, including a ‘boys fishing trip’ to the Scottish Highlands with David, Romeo and Cruz(Image: victoriabeckham/Instagram )Concerns extend beyond Brooklyn to encompass his wider family circle, including both grandmothers.The friend continued: “It isn’t just about David and Victoria anymore. They are heartbroken they don’t see their son, but what about the grandparents? Brooklyn has always been so close to them.”We are talking about a boy who was raised by his grandmothers Jackie Adams and Sandra Beckham when he was little and his parents were working.”He adores them, but he didn’t even tell them about this. Imagine being an grandmother missing her grandson and seeing all of this on the internet. And that is the most worrying thing – it’s like Brooklyn isn’t Brooklyn anymore.”Brooklyn’s friends are worried because the family used to be so close(Image: Victoria Beckham Instagram)Meanwhile, Nicola’s five brothers and sister Brittany were included on the guest list earlier this month.Additional attendees featured Harvey Weinstein’s former wife Georgina Chapman, her Oscar-winning actor partner Adrien Brody and actor Oliver Trevena.Nevertheless, the Mirror revealed yesterday how, despite the recent spectacle, the Beckham clan still maintains hope for a reconciliation.Our source told the Mirror: “The door is open.

    New Match of the Day presenters Gabby Logan, Kelly Cates and Mark Chapman, who are taking over following Gary Lineker’s tenure, want to make it all about the football when the show starts22:30, 12 Aug 2025Gary Lineker is no longer the face of Match of the Day come this Saturday (Image: Getty Images for Premier League)Match of The Day’s new hosts are promising they won’t make the show all about them.Gabby Logan, Kelly Cates and Mark Chapman don’t want to be the centre of attention like axed Gary Lineker was. Instead, they want to make it all about the football when they kick things off this week.Gabby, 52, said: “The focus is only on us because Gary’s leaving, and he’s such a huge name. We’re nowhere near the most important people on the show. The most important thing is the football, then it’s the pundits and what they think about it and we’re there to bring it all together.”Kelly, 49, added: “I didn’t think there would be as much focus as there has been. I thought, probably very naively, that Gary would take it all as the outgoing person. I didn’t realise people would be as interested as they are.”Kelly Cates, Mark Chapman and Gabby Logan are the new faces of Match of the Day (Image: PA)The trio are taking over after Gary, 64, quit the BBC over a controversial post on social media. And the new presenters insist that they won’t suffer a similar gaffe as they’re cautious about what they put online.Article continues belowKelly said: “I don’t think I’ve ever really weighed in that much on anything that isn’t either about football or something quite silly. That’s not how I’ve ever used social media.”The trio’s first show will be this Saturday as the new season of the Premier League kicks off(Image: CREDIT LINE:BBC / Charlie Clift)Gabby added: “I’ve been conducting myself on social media while working at the BBC for nearly two decades, so it doesn’t change anything.”The broadcaster is probably under the most scrutiny of any in the country because of the way it’s funded and because it’s accountable to the public. That’s how it should be. We strive to have the highest standards. Hopefully, we’ll just get on with our jobs.”Lineker stepped down from the role at the end of last season (Image: PA)Speaking earlier this year, Lineker, 64, said he believed the BBC wanted him to leave the programme, which he had anchored since 1999.Article continues belowAsked why he was ending his tenure as host, he replied: “Well, perhaps they want me to leave. There was the sense of that.” He announced last November that he would leave the football show at the end of the last Premier League season.Read the full interview in the new issue of Radio Times.For the latest breaking news and stories from across the globe from the Daily Star, sign up for our newsletter by clicking here.

    Inside Beckham feud as ‘blacklisted’ brothers banned from Brooklyn’s second wedding

    Brooklyn Beckham’s siblings Romeo and Cruz were reportedly ‘blacklisted’ from his second wedding to Nicola Peltz after they ‘trolled’ him online, according to friends21:33, 12 Aug 2025Brooklyn Peltz-Beclham and Nicola Peltz-Beckham wedding pics(Image: nicolaannepeltzbeckham/Instagram)In the extravagant “second” wedding of Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz-Beckham, it was surprising to find that the groom’s parents, David and Victoria Beckham, were not on the guest list.As a close source to the Peltz-Beckhams candidly stated: “In the current climate….hell would have had to freeze over before that happened.”The relationship between Posh and Becks and their daughter-in-law Nicola is so strained that they only discovered about the wedding vow renewal online. However, it appears they weren’t the only ones allegedly excluded from the grand event, which saw up to 200 attendees.Friends of Nicola and Brooklyn revealed that Brooklyn’s brothers, Romeo and Cruz, were also unwelcome at the celebration due to what they allege are a series of online jibes from the pair.Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz had a second wedding(Image: nicolaannepeltzbeckham/Instagram)”Brooklyn’s brothers have been stirring the pot…they’ve openly mocked and trolled Brooklyn in comments on social media,” shared the friend. One comment under scrutiny was when Cruz replied to a post from a user asking if he was “going to stick with this job or going to become a race car driver next or something?”.Cruz, seemingly alluding to his brother Brooklyn’s varied career choices, retorted: “Wrong brother mate”, reports the Mirror.It’s rather puzzling why such a seemingly innocuous comment would rile Brooklyn Beckham to such an extent. Some speculate that Nicola Peltz is seeking “any reason” to distance Brooklyn further from his siblings, having previously been accused of “isolating” her husband from not only his family but also his friends.A friend of Peltz responded to queries about the necessity of barring the entire Beckham clan from the wedding festivities on August 2. It was reported yesterday on the disappointment felt due to the absence of not just Victoria and David, but also Brooklyn’s three siblings Cruz, Harper and Romeo, as well as his grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles.Brooklyn didn’t invite his family(Image: INSTAGRAM)As one insider confided: “Why punish the whole family for what is essentially a fall-out with just the mum and dad.”Friends of Nicola and Brooklyn argue that it was difficult to exclude sister Harper, who shares a close bond with Brooklyn, as well as his grandparents.The friend stated: “They are trying to make the best decisions for them in what are very unfortunate circumstances. Navigating family stuff is hard and it’s ugly.”Remarkably, they still harbour hopes for a reconciliation. The friend added: “The door is open. No one wants to see this kind of pain exist. There is always hope. At the end of the day. Blood is thicker than water.”Such remarks will undoubtedly infuriate the Beckhams, particularly as they view the situation completely differently. I can disclose how the entire family have been attempting for “many months” to make contact and mend the rift with Brooklyn and his wife, but to no success.It’s not only David and Victoria who have been reaching out, but also both sets of grandparents and other relatives. During Brooklyn’s recent London visit, he failed to meet any family members, including his grandparents.The couple shared their pics online(Image: INSTAGRAM)Meanwhile, the family were “totally poleaxed” by news of the wedding renewal, which arrived with “zero warning.”They feel there’s no justification for failing to inform anyone about it and simply posting a series of photographs on social media. Terms such as “cruel and heartless” have been employed.The fact that more images have been released publicly this time compared to their initial 2022 wedding has certainly worsened the situation. In the photographs, Nicola donned her 70 year old mother’s vintage 1985 bridal dress for the occasion, whilst her father Nelson, 83, was granted the significant role of officiant.The selection of pictures, detractors argue, were “very pointed.”Based on responses across Brooklyn and Nicola’s social media accounts, it appears the public are solidly backing the Beckhams. One commented: “Oh lets get married again so my in-laws aren’t in the pictures. Unbelievably cruel. Hope you never have a son.”However, Peltz’s inner circle insist they’ve committed no wrongdoing whatsoever.They shared more content than last time(Image: nicolaannepeltzbeckham/Instagram)They highlight what they describe as “massive double standards” in the way both clans are depicted.One insider revealed: “Whenever Nicola and Brooklyn stand up for themselves – or share how in love they are – they are seen as the bad guys. Take a look at Victoria’s Instagram feed…it’s all lovey-dovey. When Nicola does this she is accused of being terrible.”Regarding accusations that Nicola is cutting Brooklyn off from others, her mates dismiss this completely. They insisted: “Brooklyn’s friends flew in early to spend the week with him, and he had them staying with him in the build up. The pictures reflected what the goal was ….it was all about love. There was no ulterior motive.”Looking ahead, the ongoing drama certainly isn’t damaging Nicola’s professional opportunities.”Nicola just wrapped a film in North Carolina which she was shooting this summer, and she has other film and TV projects in the works,” revealed a close friend. Brooklyn is also keeping himself occupied promoting his spicy condiment range and recently collaborated with Airbnb.When asked whether they might consider a major televised discussion about the rift, the mate suggests it wouldn’t suit them.Article continues below”They dont want the attention…they are about peace instead,” they explained.Whether the Beckhams share this perspective remains to be seen….Want all the biggest Showbiz and TV news straight to your inbox?
