Inside Nicola Peltz’s Frustration with Victoria Beckham’s Narcissistic Control
Get this—my caffeine-addled brain is buzzing over the Beckham household drama, and it’s epic! Nicola Peltz Beckham has officially hit her limit with Victoria Beckham’s over-the-top perfectionism and “narcissistic” micro-managing, sources tell us. According to insiders speaking to the New York Post and corroborated by Daily Mail, tensions have been simmering since the newlyweds moved into Victoria and David’s London abode last summer. Nicola, formerly an indie actress with a chill vibe, reportedly feels stifled by Victoria’s nonstop critique—everything from her posture at dinner to her choice of lipstick shade.
It all began at a supposedly casual Sunday roast, when Victoria allegedly lectured Nicola on etiquette in front of guests, prompting a teary exit to the kitchen. Sources say that after that incident, Nicola started confiding in friends she felt like “just another accessory” in the Beckham empire (New York Post, Daily Mail). She’s reportedly grown resentful of Victoria’s habit of commandeering family photographs—always positioning herself front and center—leaving Nicola in the wings, according to one insider close to Nicola’s camp.
The friction peaked during London Fashion Week, where Victoria invited Nicola as her runway plus-one but privately criticized her ensemble choice backstage. A pal of Nicola leaked a text reading, “I love you, but I can’t stand being compared to you 24/7.” The same pal told Daily Mail that Nicola’s not the type to start family feuds, but even the calmest person has a breaking point. Meanwhile, Brooklyn Beckham has been described as “stuck in the middle,” torn between loyalty to his mom—his lifelong stylist and advisor—and his bride, who’s begging for space to build her own identity.
It’s not all kitchen clashes and fashion faux pas, though. Peers close to Nicola swear she adores Victoria’s taste—just not the constant commentary. One source told us that Nicola’s even considering hiring a life coach to navigate the minefield of in-law expectations (People Magazine, New York Post). And David Beckham? He’s reportedly trying to mediate peace talks over New Year’s brunch but realizing this might need more than a plate of avocado toast and mimosas.
So where do they go from here? Will Nicola and Victoria find a truce, or will the Beckham dinner table become ground zero for passive-aggressive side-eye? Keep your espresso shots ready—this saga is far from over. I swear, I could talk about this all day, but I need another espresso after that chat!
