So, here’s a family drama hotter than a Mercury retrograde mixed with a full moon tantrum! Just weeks after Brooklyn Beckham aired his dirty laundry—yes, the shocking accusations against dear old mom and dad—his father-in-law, Nelson Peltz, has finally busted his silence. Picture this: at the WSJ Live Event, rather than diving into the melodrama most of us are binge-watching like a guilty pleasure, Nelson chuckles, “Has my family been in the press lately? I haven’t noticed that at all.” Honey, that’s denial wrapped in a zodiac-sized smirk! He even dishes out some grizzled advice: “Stay the hell out of the press”—which clearly worked so well (insert eyeroll). Meanwhile, the cosmos seem to be playing matchmaker, as Nelson sings praises for Nicola and Brooklyn, hoping their marriage sails smoothly despite the storm. With David Beckham warning about the perils of social media and Victoria Beckham rekindling Spice Girls magic amid the chaos, the Beckhams are anything but dull. So, what’s next for this constellation of celebs tangled in family fireworks? Will the stars align for peace, or is more drama orbiting around? Dive deeper and get the full scoop here: LEARN MORE.

While speaking at “WSJ Live Event” on Tuesday, February 3, Nelson Peltz formally addressed the messy breakdown of the family relationship between Brooklyn Beckham and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham.
When asked about the public attention surrounding his daughter and her marriage, Peltz began his comments by jokingly responding, “Has my family been in the press lately? I haven’t noticed that at all,” he said, according to PEOPLE.
Peltz was then asked if he had given his family any advice amid the ongoing feud. “My advice is to stay the hell out of the press. How much good did that do?,” he replied.
He continued, addressing his co-in-laws by name while praising Nicola and Brooklyn:

Following months of reported tensions between the Beckham family and Brooklyn, things officially came to a head after the couple’s eldest child slammed his parents on social media.
Claims that mom Victoria “hijacked” the first dance at his wedding by dancing “inappropriately” and making him feel “uncomfortable” and “humiliated” led his accusations. Brooklyn further provided a detailed account of the alleged behind-the-scenes drama of his parents repeatedly attempting to sabotage his marriage and tarnish him and Nicola in the media.

“I have been silent for years and have made every attempt to keep these matters private,” Brooklyn wrote in the lengthy post. “Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed.”
Brooklyn also made it very clear that he is not interested in mending fences anytime soon. “I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”

Days after Brooklyn’s posts about his parents on social media, dad David Beckham appeared on CNBC’s Squawk Box on January 20, speaking about social media and his advice to his children about their online usage.
“I have always spoken about social media and the power of social media. For the good and for the bad,” Beckham said while on the show. “The bad we’ve talked about with what kids can access these days, it can be dangerous. But what I have found personally, especially with my kids as well, use it for the right reasons.”
David then noted the “mistakes” that his children make online.
“I’ve tried to do the same with my children, to educate them,” he shared. “They make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes. That is how they learn. That is what I try to teach my kids. You sometimes have to let them make those mistakes as well.”
