Nelson Peltz Praises Son-in-Law Brooklyn Beckham

As tension continues between Brooklyn Beckham and his famous family, his father-in-law Nelson Peltz has weighed in. The billionaire investor publicly praised Brooklyn and voiced support for his marriage to Nicola Peltz amid ongoing headlines.

The rift between Brooklyn Beckham and his family has drawn widespread attention in recent months, but one powerful voice is firmly standing by him.

Nelson Peltz, the billionaire investor and father of Nicola Peltz, has publicly praised his son-in-law and expressed optimism about Brooklyn’s future amid ongoing family drama.

Background on the Family Dispute

The situation escalated after Brooklyn Beckham shared an emotional account of his upbringing, claiming his parents controlled much of his life until he gained independence through his marriage to Nicola Peltz. The comments sparked intense discussion online and fueled speculation about tensions within the Beckham family.

While David and Victoria Beckham have not publicly addressed the claims in detail, the divide has remained a topic of public interest, especially given the family’s high-profile status.

Nelson Peltz Weighs In

On February 3, 2026, Nelson Peltz addressed the situation during the WSJ Invest Live event. The 83-year-old businessman was asked about the recent media attention surrounding his daughter.

“Has my family been in the press lately? I haven't noticed that at all,” Peltz replied with humor. When asked whether he offers advice to his family on handling public scrutiny, Peltz was blunt. "I do. My advice is to stay the hell out of the press. How much good did that do?" he added.

Praising Brooklyn Beckham

Although Peltz initially tried to downplay the situation, he eventually offered direct praise for his son-in-law.

"My daughter and the Beckhams are a whole other story," he said. "That's not for coverage here today, but I'll tell you my daughter's great, my son-in-law Brooklyn is great, and I look forward to them having a long, happy marriage together."

His comments marked one of the clearest public endorsements Brooklyn has received from within the Peltz family since the controversy began.

Nicola Peltz Remains Silent

Nicola Peltz has not publicly commented on the family drama since Brooklyn shared his perspective on Instagram. She has continued to appear at public events and focus on her acting career without addressing the headlines directly.

Nelson Peltz shares eight children with his wife, Claudia Heffner Peltz, and is known for keeping family matters private. His remarks suggest a desire to support his daughter and son-in-law without escalating the situation further.

As speculation around the Beckham family continues, Nelson Peltz has made his position clear. He stands firmly behind Brooklyn Beckham and supports his marriage to Nicola Peltz. While tensions remain unresolved, Peltz’s comments signal stability and confidence in the couple’s future, even as public attention shows no signs of fading.
