When asked how her parents, billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz and Claudia Heffner Peltz, embraced Brooklyn after their marriage, she says they treat him “like another son”.
“He gets along really well with my brothers. They play soccer together a lot,” she said.
The comment appeared pointed amid Brooklyn’s ongoing rift with his parents, David and Victoria Beckham and his brothers, Romeo and Cruz.
Despite the drama that has circled the couple’s relationship, Nicola also praised her husband’s support, saying, “Brooklyn supports my dreams and is the sweetest when I get too hard on myself. He has the biggest heart in the world.”

Nicola also offered fans a glimpse into married life with Brooklyn, saying being at home with him and their dogs is her “idea of paradise”.
The latest comments come after a string of public moves that have kept speculation around the Beckham family feud in the spotlight.
Earlier this month, Brooklyn appeared to snub Victoria Beckham on Mother’s Day while posting a tribute to his mother-in-law, Claudia, for her birthday.
“Happy birthday to the best mother-in-law,” he wrote on Instagram. “Love u so much and hope u had the most amazing day.”
The long-simmering tensions between Brooklyn and his family have been the subject of speculation for years, dating back to his April 2022 wedding to Nicola.
Rumours of friction first surfaced around Nicola’s wedding dress after she wore a Valentino Haute Couture gown rather than a design by Victoria Beckham, despite later insisting she had wanted to wear one of her mother-in-law’s creations.
Brooklyn later accused his mother of pulling out of making the dress.
Since then, the family has faced repeated scrutiny over missed milestones, cryptic social media posts and public comments.
The feud finally boiled over in January, when Brooklyn shared a lengthy Instagram statement in which he made a series of allegations about his parents and their handling of family matters.
“For my entire life, my parents have controlled narratives in the press about our family,” he wrote.

“My parents have been trying endlessly to ruin my relationship since before my wedding, and it hasn’t stopped.
“The performative social media posts, family events and inauthentic relationships have been a fixture of the life I was born into.”
Brooklyn also claimed, “My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song…
She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone.
“I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”
He also claimed he no longer wanted to patch things up with his family, writing: “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.”
David, Victoria and Brooklyn’s brothers have not publicly responded directly to the searing statement, though they did mark their firstborn’s 27th birthday via social media earlier in March.
Despite this, Nicola’s newest comments make one thing clear: while Brooklyn’s relationship with his own family appears fractured, he remains embraced by hers.
