Following Brooklyn Beckham’s explosive Instagram stories accusing his parents David and Victoria Beckham of controlling behaviour and revealing he has “no desire to reconcile,” his wife Nicola Peltz has come under intense online scrutiny. Social media users have resurfaced claims about her past relationships and alleged mistreatment of staff, fueling speculation amid the ongoing family feud. Here’s a breakdown of the claims and what is verified.
Nanny allegations and family claims
Old tabloid reports and resurfaced Reddit threads have suggested that as a teenager, Nicola Peltz mistreated staff at her family’s Palm Beach estate. Some posts claimed she pushed a nanny down stairs, forced staff into difficult tasks, and threatened firings through her billionaire father, Nelson Peltz. These stories often cite high staff turnover and alleged emotional impact on employees.
However, these claims are unsubstantiated. Nicola’s long-time nanny, Maria “Gina” Sampaio, and her family have publicly denied any mistreatment. In 2022, they shared photos showing a close relationship, with Nicola sending flowers after Gina’s retirement and visiting her in Brazil. There are no police reports, lawsuits, or firsthand accounts confirming the “push” incident. Experts and media outlets treating the story consider it tabloid gossip, particularly resurfaced due to the Beckham feud.
Nicola Peltz’s previous relationships
Nicola Peltz has been publicly linked to a few high-profile relationships prior to dating Brooklyn Beckham. Rumours include a brief fling with her Transformers: Age of Extinction co-star Brenton Thwaites in 2014, followed by Cameron Fuller in 2015, which she subtly confirmed via supportive social media posts. She was also linked to Justin Bieber in Beverly Hills, though it was reportedly a short-term connection.
From around 2017, Nicola dated Anwar Hadid for roughly a year and a half. Their relationship was public, with frequent red carpet appearances and Instagram PDA. She later dated Paul Klien for about six months before beginning her relationship with Brooklyn Beckham in 2019. They became engaged in 2020 and married in 2022.
Allegations of “isolating” behavior
Amid the Beckham drama, some online users have alleged that Nicola Peltz may have isolated her ex-boyfriend Anwar Hadid from his family, suggesting a pattern of controlling behavior. However, there is no concrete evidence supporting this claim. No verified reports or firsthand accounts indicate that Anwar was distanced from his family during or after his relationship with Peltz.
Many of the comments linking Nicola to “narcissistic” behavior are speculative interpretations of Brooklyn’s feud with his parents rather than verified facts. Social media discussions should therefore be treated cautiously, as there is no confirmation beyond online commentary.
In summary, while Nicola Peltz remains a focus of online debate amid Brooklyn Beckham’s family dispute, the allegations about staff mistreatment and controlling behavior are unverified, and her past relationships do not substantiate claims of isolation or abuse.
