The final smiling family portrait before the Beckhams were torn apart – and what Nicola Peltz said about her mother-in-law Victoria

The last photograph of the Beckham family with their eldest son Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz before their feud kicked off shows them smiling at Christmas time.
The picture of familial bliss shows Victoria and David and their four children with Nicola gathered in front of a Christmas tree, posted on Boxing Day last year.

Just five months after Victoria wrote ‘being together makes me so happy’, Brooklyn and Nicola failed to show up to any of David’s 50th birthday celebrations.
Things came to a head when Brooklyn and Nicola didn’t attend, with The Mail revealing that a rift with Nicola is at the centre of the breakdown in relations.
The image showed Cruz, 20, Romeo, 22, Brooklyn, 26, Harper, 13, David, Victoria and Nicola, 29, all gathered together in a picture perfect moment.

Proving that they were on good terms at the time, Nicola replied to her mother-in-law: ‘I love you all so much!’
A couple of months before, they were all together again at the Los Angeles launch of Brooklyn’s hot sauce brand Cloud 23.
The family put their full support behind Brooklyn as he released his latest venture as they all travelled across the pond to attend the event.
The same month they gathered again in London for a separate launch of the £15 sauce at a London Wholefoods store.

In September, they all gathered in Paris to support her at fashion week as she presented her SS25 collection.Amid claims of the family feud, David and Victoria are said to be ‘deeply sad’ about the rift, while reports the pair were unwelcoming towards Nicola have been shut down by sources close to the couple.

Friends of the Beckhams told The Mirror the couple backed Nicola ‘at every opportunity’ and that there was ‘no anger but just a deep sense of sorrow about how things have turned out.’
