Nicola Peltz has seemingly taken a subtle dig at the Beckham family amid reports of tension between her husband, Brooklyn Beckham, and his famous parents. The 30-year-old actress and heiress shared a stylish selfie on Instagram on Sunday, captioning it: “Love being home.” Fans quickly speculated that the post hinted at underlying family friction, as the couple stayed in Los Angeles over the festive season instead of attending the UK wedding of family friend Holly Ramsay.

Brooklyn, 26, was notably absent from the star-studded ceremony where Holly, 25, married Olympic swimmer Adam Peaty, 31. The Beckhams were present, with David and Victoria attending alongside their children Romeo, Cruz, and Harper. Victoria drew attention in a £1,290 teal satin dress from her own collection.

Fans interpreted Nicola’s Instagram post as a pointed message, especially given ongoing rumours that Brooklyn has blocked members of his family on social media. Adding to the speculation, Brooklyn praised Nicola in the comments of her post, writing: “Damn she sexy xx,” which some viewed as a public show of support.

In the shared photo, Nicola flaunted a toned figure in a black vest paired with oversized sunglasses, reflecting a relaxed and stylish holiday mood. Reports suggest that Brooklyn spent Christmas with Nicola’s billionaire family in Los Angeles rather than travelling to the UK for the Ramsay wedding.

Insiders indicate that Brooklyn had been invited to Holly Ramsay’s nuptials, with the Ramsays maintaining an “open door” approach despite any tensions with the Beckhams. The two families have been close since the early 2000s, with their children often growing up together while spending time in the US.

Brooklyn’s absence has reignited speculation about strained relationships. Sources also suggest that his friendship with Gordon and Tana Ramsay’s eldest son, Jack, has cooled since he began dating Nicola. Jack was not present at Brooklyn and Nicola’s recent vow renewal ceremony, further fueling rumours.

Adding to the intrigue, Brooklyn shared a cryptic Christmas post featuring one of his rescue dogs wearing a Grinch-themed hat, which fans interpreted as a subtle nod to family tension. Meanwhile, the couple appeared relaxed in Los Angeles, with Brooklyn spotted playing tennis with American pro Reilly Opelka and spending time with Nicola’s brother Bradley.
