Amidst her escalating conflict with the Beckhams, Nicola Peltz synchs up with Taylor Swift for style advice.
Growing Distance Between Nicola Peltz and the Beckham Family
The distance between Nicola Peltz and her in-laws, the Beckhams, is expanding according to insiders. The dispute reportedly ignited when Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola had to miss David Beckham's 50th birthday bash due to the presence of Romeo's girlfriend, Kim Turnbull.
Kim and Brooklyn seemingly share a past, though neither dated officially (as confirmed by Brooklyn's younger brother, Cruz, on his Instagram). Regardless, Brooklyn remains discomforted around Kim.
It's been rumored that Nicola is curating an exclusive group of Hollywood A-listers, akin to Taylor Swift's famed squad. According to a mole talking to Radar Online, "Nicola's in the midst of her Taylor Swift-style era in Hollywood. She's putting together this tight-knit, star-studded inner circle that's starting to rival Taylor's.* The source continued, "It's evidently boosting her confidence in her confrontation with the Beckhams."
This newly formed clique could provide Nicola with renewed camaraderie, as she's reached out to celebrities like Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, and Hailey Bieber. Among her closest friends is none other than Selena Gomez, who is reportedly a confidante to the heiress.
Nicola had a dinner with Meghan Markle in April and later connected with her tennis icon pal, Serena Williams, thanks to the Duchess of Sussex. "Nicola and Serena hit it off instantly," the source shared. "Serena's been reaching out frequently - she truly understands the pressure Nicola faces."
Victoria Beckham seems to be grappling with her daughter-in-law's growing visibility amidst the rift. The insider noted, "Victoria finds it challenging to witness Nicola thriving in this situation, with a stronger public presence and developing ties to notable figures. There's a growing sentiment that Nicola isn't simply holding her ground - she's thriving."
With her prestigious inner circle backing her, Nicola reportedly feels invincible, well-protected, and more powerful than the Beckhams.
Expanding Hollywood Network
In addition to forging ties with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, Nicola Peltz has been socializing with a network of influential figures in Hollywood. This social network was recently highlighted during a dinner party in Montecito, California, where Brooklyn and Nicola mingled with the royal couple. Insiders suggest that they found Harry and Meghan "kind, caring, and generous"[1].
Other potential figures who may join her inner circle include actresses from her acting career and influential members of Brooklyn's family.
Brooklyn and Nicola's Feud
These social interactions with Meghan and Harry come at a time when alleged tensions between Brooklyn and his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, have surfaced[1]. In May 2025, rumors of "tensions" between Brooklyn and his parents emerged[1]. In response, Nicola expressed her love for her mother on Instagram, which some interpret as a show of support for her family amidst these tensions[1]. Simultaneously, Brooklyn and Nicola have enlisted a lawyer to manage their reputation, displaying a concerted effort to control their public image. The involvement with Meghan and Harry could be part of this broader strategy.
The expanding Hollywood network of Nicola Peltz now includes celebrities like Meghan Markle, Prince Harry, Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, Hailey Bieber, and Selena Gomez, transforming her social sphere into a star-studded inner circle reminiscent of Taylor Swift's squad. This new entertainment circle could serve as a source of renewed camaraderie for Nicola, particularly as she navigates her feud with Brooklyn Beckham and the Beckham family, who seem to be grappling with her rising pop-culture profile.
