Nicola Peltz: From talented daughter-in-law to the "cold war" maker of the Beckham family

The eldest son of the Beckham family, Brooklyn Beckham and his wife Nicola Peltz are a couple that has taken up a lot of media attention since their dating and marriage, especially the relationship between the bride and her husband's family.

Nicola Peltz, born in 1995, is the daughter of businessman Nelson Peltz and model Claudia Heffner. Her father, Nelson Peltz, is the co-founder of Trian Fund Management and former executive chairman of the fast food chain Wendy's. His fortune is estimated at $1.7 billion, ranking him 432nd on the list of the richest people in the United States.

Nicola's mother, Claudia Heffner, was a fashion model, but after marrying Nelson in 1985, she turned her attention to raising her family. The couple, who have eight children, live in a luxurious mansion in Bedford, New York.

The Peltz family is notable not only for its large fortune but also for its successful careers in business and the arts. Matthew Peltz, Nicola's brother, followed his father's business path and is currently Vice President of the Wendy's restaurant chain.

Nicola's older sister, Brittany Peltz Buerstedde, was a figure skater before moving into fashion. Her younger brother, Brad Peltz, was a professional hockey player. He studied politics at Yale University and later founded a health care company.

Will Peltz, Nicola's other younger brother, pursued an acting career in Hollywood and has appeared in numerous films and television shows.

The Peltz family also covered all the wedding expenses, which amounted to $4 million. The wedding was held at the bride’s father’s $103 million beachside mansion.

Nicola Peltz has been active in the entertainment industry since she was young, receiving strong support from her family. Nicola Peltz has her own career direction when choosing modeling and acting to pursue. Having encountered many difficulties in the early days of her artistic career, Nicola Peltz had to make great efforts to assert herself to achieve success in both the fashion and film industries. The beauty used to be a popular representative face for high-end brands. Nicola Peltz's income is mainly earned from advertising photography.

At the age of 11, Nicola made her debut in the film "Deck The Halls". She then made her mark in films such as "The Last Airbender" and "Transformers: Age of Extinction". These works helped her gradually gain attention in the film industry. Her role as Katara in "The Last Airbender" despite causing controversy still opened up opportunities for her in the film industry.

In addition to acting, Nicola also tried her hand at fashion. She has been the face of many high-end brands and appeared in international fashion events. Young Hollywood magazine selected her as one of the promising faces in the US.

Nicola's fashion career also helps her earn a huge income, without having to depend on her family. Beckham's daughter-in-law herself is said to own a fortune of 50 million USD.

Not only that, she was once voted by Young Hollywood magazine as one of the 55 promising models in America. With her charming beauty and impressive fashion sense, Nicola Peltz is increasingly popularizing her name in the world fashion market.

In recent years, Nicola has participated in many different film projects. Although her performance has not been highly appreciated, Nicola affirms that she will continue to improve herself and wait for new opportunities to prove her ability in the future.

In October 2019, Brooklyn and Nicola began appearing together at events. In early 2020, Nicola officially announced their relationship on social media. Since then, the two have been constantly appearing together and often sharing affectionate moments on social media before getting engaged in July 2020.

On April 9, 2022, the couple officially held their wedding ceremony. Before that, in 2021, they bought a villa worth 10.5 million USD to live together. On the wedding day, David Beckham and his wife also gave the young couple a classic Jaguar XK140 car, worth 500,000 USD (12,410 billion VND), as a special gift.

Despite their happy marriage, Nicola Peltz and her husband have been embroiled in many disputes with the Beckham family. Initially, Victoria Beckham was very supportive of her son's relationship with the actress, and Nicola has repeatedly praised the former Spice Girls member.

The disagreements are said to have arisen during the preparations for the couple's lavish wedding. Nicola Peltz wore a wedding dress designed by her mother-in-law, while the Beckhams were somewhat "inferior" in their son's wedding as the entire event was taken care of by the bride's family.

Brooklyn had a period of estrangement from his parents, and Nicola Peltz was repeatedly criticized by the media for her tactless behavior towards her husband's family, leading to a series of rumors about a cold war in the famous family.

The strained relationship only showed signs of improvement in early 2024 when Victoria and David Beckham posted a birthday greeting for Nicola Peltz. The Beckhams also freely shared photos of their vacations with their billionaire daughter-in-law.
