Nicola Peltz Beckham shared how her family has accepted her husband, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, in a new interview with Elle España
The Prima star said her parents, Nelson and Claudia Peltz, have welcomed Brooklyn like a "son," a comment that comes amid his ongoing rift with his own parents, Victoria and David Beckham
In February, Nelson addressed his daughter and son-in-law's public drama for the first time, saying, "I look forward to them having a long, happy marriage together"
Nicola Peltz Beckham's loved ones welcomed her husband, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, with open arms.
In a new interview with Elle España, the actress and director, 31, said her parents, Nelson Peltz and Claudia Heffner Peltz, see the eldest of the Beckham children "like another son." She also revealed how the Cloud23 founder has bonded with her siblings. "He gets along really well with my brothers. They play soccer together a lot," said Nicola, who is one of eight children.
Her comments come amid Brooklyn's ongoing estrangement from his own family. That includes mom Victoria Beckham, dad David Beckham, brothers Cruz and Romeo, and sister Harper.

The speculated drama between the Beckhams and Brooklyn, 27, was confirmed on Jan. 19 after he broke his silence with a lengthy post about what he claimed to be an ongoing attempt by his parents to sabotage his relationship with Nicola (whom he married in April 2022) in the name of publicity.
"I have been silent for years and have made every attempt to keep these matters private. 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 began his Instagram Stories post. "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."
Elsewhere in her interview with Elle España, Nicola commended her significant other on how he handles fame. "He manages it. I need to take notes on how he handles it," she said after describing herself as "very sensitive" about public scrutiny.

"I need to work on not reading everything: online news, social media comments... I try not to pay attention to what people say, but it affects me. I need to learn to distance myself," she said.
And she also proved just how strong her and Brooklyn's love is despite the outside noise. "I’m very focused on this film [referencing her movie Prima]. And Brooklyn is completely immersed in his Cloud 23 project, a line of gourmet sauces… But when we’re together at home in the evening, we’re fine," she shared, adding that "paradise" is being at home with Brooklyn and their dogs. "We put on Gilmore Girls or Sex and the City in the background, and we have our perfect night.”

Recently, Brooklyn was photographed with his in-laws on various occasions. They've celebrated the holidays together (including Claudia's March 12 birthday) and even commemorated their Aug. 2, 2025, vow renewal ceremony with Nelson as their officiant.
The billionaire businessman and investor, 83, addressed his son-in-law's family situation for the first time at the WSJ Invest Live event on Feb 3, saying: "My daughter and the Beckhams are a whole other story. 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."
