Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz make 'baby' announcement in 'important' family update
Nicola Peltz took to Instagram to share a 'very important announcement' as she revealed a brand new joint venture with her husband, Brooklyn Beckham, amid the family's ongoing feud with the Beckham family.
It's believed that Brooklyn, 26, is currently embroiled in a feud with his family, including dad David and mum Victoria. The alleged feud is believed to have started when Brooklyn and Nicola, 30, tied the knot three years ago, while fuel was also added to the fire when Nicola and Brooklyn failed to attend David's 50th birthday celebrations last month.
Not addressing the drama, Nicola took to Instagram on Sunday night and said she has a 'very important announcement', before revealing that the couple have made a sweet Instagram account for their dogs.
Nicola shared a link to the new social media page titled 'pelzbeckhambabies', which has already shared a snap of each of their dogs. The couple are proud dog parents to dogs named Bridalina, Lamb, Label and Angel. The dog's Instagram page only follows Nicola and Brooklyn.
The couple's latest announcement comes shortly after reports that Brooklyn is setting up a new charity dog shelter with Nicola in America. The Sun reported that the couple are launching the Peltz Beckham Foundation, which will rescue homeless dogs and offer them shelter and support.
In another career update, it was announced last week that she will star in the thriller Pretty Ugly and also serve as an executive producer, with it understood to be the first time she's held that position on a film.
Nicola has appeared in several films over the years, including Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014) and Lola (2024), which she also wrote and directed. It was reported last week that Nicola will star alongside Jazzy De Lisser and Mary Stuart Masterson.
The film is said to be written and directed by Erica Dunton, who has previously worked on TV shows such as Ted Lasso, The Summer I Turned Pretty and Outer Banks.
The couple's career announcements come amid a rumoured growing rift between Nicola and Brooklyn and his parents, Victoria and David. In the latest family drama, it was revealed last week that both Brooklyn and Nicola's Instagram accounts don't follow younger brothers Crus, 20 and Romeo, 22.
It was also reported earlier this month that Brooklyn was expected to miss his youngest sibling Harper Beckham's 14th birthday. A source told the Mirror at the time: "He took a stand and missed his dad's 50th so he's not likely to suddenly do a U-turn and forget everything that's happened, as much as he loves Harper."
They continued: "He didn't want it to turn out this way, and he's always been really close to all his siblings, but he is a married man now and his priorities have to lie somewhere else."
The source added: "He just doesn't feel his family has treated Nicola well and now that he's grown so close to her family in the States, he doesn't really feel like he fits into the Beckham family right now."
Brooklyn and his wife Nicola ended up marking Harper's birthday last week online as Brooklyn shared a photo of the couple alongside his sister and wrote: "Happy birthday Harper, we love u x." He tagged Nicola, who then shared his post herself.

Strictly star swaps ballroom for Hollywood with movie debut
Olympic champion and former Strictly Come Dancing star Nicola Adams has lined up her debut acting role in an upcoming Hollywood movie. Former professional boxer Nicola, 42, appeared on the 18th series of the BBC dance competition in 2020. She made history when partnered with professional dancer Katya Jones as the show's first-ever same-sex partnership. However, her Strictly dreams were cut abruptly short when they were forced to withdraw during the fourth week of the competition, after Katya tested positive for Covid-19. The two-time Olympic champ will now pursue another dream—turning her hand to acting in an upcoming movie. Wake up to find news on your TV shows in your inbox every morning with Metro's TV Newsletter. Sign up to our newsletter and then select your show in the link we'll send you so we can get TV news tailored to you. Nicola will star alongside Poppy Delevigne, Jack Kesy, and Bruce Willis's daughter, Rumer, in the allegorical thriller The Gun on Second Street. Talking about her career move, Nicola told The Sun: 'I just want to work with people that are just as hungry as I am. 'I'm not one of those people that just show up and just expect everything to be fine. 'I put in the work, I put in the graft, just as I do as an athlete as well. I want to take it as far as I can in terms of how I grow as an actor, being able to experience different types of roles, playing different characters that really flex my abilities and my ability to be able to dig deep on the emotions that are needed for the more dark characters.' Written and directed by Rohit Karn Batra, its story follows two police officers who are called to a domestic violence dispute on the titular Second Street in Philadelphia. The call-out goes awry when one officer accidentally shoots and kills the other. The film is described as an allegory about the gun crisis in America. At present, Nicola is listed on IMDB, although her character has not been named. Nicola rose to fame during the Olympics in 2012, becoming the first female boxer to win Olympic Gold for Britain. She went on to successfully defend her title at Rio 2016, before winning the title of WBO (World Boxing Organisation) flyweight in 2019. The athlete was forced into an early retirement that same year due to a serious eye injury, having only fought six times as a pro. She returned to the spotlight the very next year as a Strictly hopeful and has since expressed how much she'd love to return as a contestant due to 'unfinished business' after her premature departure. Of her decision to retire, Nicola said in 2019: 'I'm immensely honoured to have represented our country—to win double Olympic gold medals and then the WBO championship belt is a dream come true. 'But it's not without taking its toll on my body, and aside from the expected aches and pains, I've been advised that any further impact to my eye would most likely lead to irreparable damage and permanent vision loss. 'Boxing has always been such an important part of my life—and it always will—but after training every day for over 20 years, my body is quite looking forward to a rest!' More recently, Nicola is reported to have split from her partner of seven years, Ella Baig. The boxer began dating the OnlyFans model, 27, after they met on a night out in 2018. More Trending Now, the couple share two-year-old son, Taylor Nate, who was born via IVF using one of Nicola's eggs. A spokesperson told The Sun in March: 'Nicola and Ella have shared an incredible journey together, full of love, growth, and resilience. 'After much thoughtful reflection and important therapy work, they have made the difficult decision to separate.

Louise Redknapp overcome with emotion as she celebrate son's huge milestone
Pop singer Louise Redknapp took to social media over the weekend to pay an emotional tribute to her eldest son - and shared her shock over the fact he is now a 21-year-old man Louise Redknapp is in disbelief at the fact she is the mother of a 21-year-old son. The 50-year-old pop singer is a proud mum-of-two, sharing sons Charley and Beau with ex-husband Jamie Redknapp, 52. The former Eternal singer often features video clips and snaps of her family life online, and on Sunday she shone a spotlight on her eldest son as he reached a landmark year in age. Taking to Instagram, the Light of My Life singer shared a carousel of content about her son. She uploaded photos of her son from the days he was a baby through to his time now as a young man. She featured in some of the images herself - with the cover image showing her and Charley smiling as they posed side-by-side together. The final slide showed Louise and family members raising a glass to cheers Charley - who towered over most of them. She wrote in an accompanying caption: "How did this happen?! my baby is 21 years old today!!!" In a gushing tribute, she continued: "Chaz I am so proud of you and the charming young man you have become, you've been my partner in crime and shadow since day one and nothing makes me happier than seeing you living your best life. "You have an incredible future ahead of you keep on working hard and absolutely smashing it. I would however like to request that you now at the age of 21 learn how to wash up, turn the lights off and pick your clothes up off the bedroom floor… but maybe we'll get there for next year." And she concluded: "Happy Birthday Charley, Have the most amazing day! We love you so much. Love Mum." Charley's dad Jamie, who was married to Louise from 1998 until 2017, also took to social media to celebrate over the weekend.

Keep putting in the work, your dreams are within reach." Name checking his other son with Louise, 16-year-old Beau, and three-year-old Raphael who he shares with wife Frida Andersson, 41, Jamie continued: "You're also the best big brother, the way you are with Rapha and Beau melts my heart. Such a great role model, and they're so lucky to have you." He went on: "Now that you're 21, I'm hoping you'll finally start beating me at golf … but I won't make it easy! Can't wait for a few days on the course together." And Jamie added: "So excited for everything ahead of you. Love you so much my Charley boy." Jamie's collection of photos showed him posing alongside his eldest son - while his cover image showed Jamie, Charley and Raphael celebrating with cake together. While other images showed Charley from across the years. A concluding snap showed Jamie with all three of his sons relaxing in a swimming pool together. Step-mum Frida was among those responding in the comments, writing: "Happy happy Birthday Charley" alongside a string of balloon emojis.

'I saw real Bonnie Blue behind closed doors - there's one dark truth people don't see'
As a new Channel 4 documentary delves into the shocking real world of Bonnie Blue, mirror writer Ellie Fry argues that the viral adult star's dark influence over young men and women is painfully ignored Sat in a cosy cinema room packed full of press, Bonnie Blue, real name Tia Billinger, seems to be in her element. As her famous face and bright blonde curls pop up on the big screen, us viewers have no idea what's in store as we sit down to watch one of the biggest adult stars in the world appear in a brand new Channel 4 documentary, which promises to deliver full access to the real life of Bonnie Blue. But sitting there alongside her "proud" mum, other family members and small team, Bonnie knows all too well that the extreme sex empire she's painstakingly crafted is about to become even more mainstream, as the broadcaster has spared no blushes in its fly-on-the-wall hour-long show, titled "1000 Men and Me: The Bonnie Blue Story". Her life behind the scenes and the inner workings of her multi-million pound businesss have been shrouded in mystery until now. But one thing Bonnie's always been desperate to promote are her extreme sex challenges. The star's troubling social media strategy, where she posts aggressively across platforms like Instagram and TikTok, means that everyone - including young girls and boys - can easily stumble across a glimpse of her explicit content, where she boasts about sleeping with married men and being "helpless" as men "take her". Sadly, Channel 4's deep dive does little to hold Bonnie accountable for the undeniable responsibilities she has as a world famous adult star promoting potentially dangerous sex stunts on social media. Our online landscape is already teeming with violent porn and unhealthy perceptions of sex, and in this bleak attention economy of viral videos and views, it seems as though there's no limit to how far Bonnie will push herself. Chillingly, the star's whole business model centres around sleeping with 'normal' men in amateur videos. What struck me watching the film is the horrifying juxtaposition of going to such extreme, unrealistic measures with everyday members of the public. Bonnie positions herself as somewhat of a saviour - relishing in giving the average man a chance to sleep with a porn star, or "teaching barely legal" virgins how to perform in the bedroom. She says in the doc: "I found my purpose in porn. I found the niche I want to focus on. And it's not just because I'm obsessed with 18-year-olds, it was such a bigger picture in terms of teaching them how to have sex; watching their face light up as they lost their virginity. I really love that." But while these gritty, 'homemade' scenes may seem real - and earn Bonnie millions of pounds - the relatability ends at the amateurs involved. The star's extreme stunts - from sleeping with 1,057 men in a day and planning to cage herself in a glass box in a sex 'petting zoo' - are merely perpetuating dangerous myths about what women need to do for their partners - and what men should expect in the bedroom. In a bid to brush away her critics, who have questioned the ethics and power dynamic in her content, Bonnie says that she talks about consent until she's blue in the face, insisting that every participant has to sign a consent form and show ID before taking part. But I can't help but notice her thirst for control over the participants she chooses - notably people who are not in the porn industry, or have never filmed such extreme content before - and wonder where that stems from. It seems as though she deliberately profits from the vulnerability and innocence of the young men and women who agree to appear in her films. And this connection to the everyday public is exactly where that danger lies - it feels so within reach, despite being so extreme. The star's ex husband Oliver Davidson, who appears fleetingly in the film, explains her strategy perfectly. "She really connects with the fans," he says. "Most people, if they do porn, they seem out of reach. You're never going to meet them. You're never going to be able to film with them. Whereas Bonnie puts a location online, and then obviously her fans can actually film with her. It's like a defining moment in porn, where she's completely changed the game." But the normalisation of such severe porn will soon seep into the psyche of young people being fed the content by the giants at Meta and TikTok. And this marketing strategy puts Bonnie at risk too. The star admits in the film that she hasn't left the house alone in the last six months, and fears being attacked by acid on the street. The documentary is radically uncensored in its depiction of Bonnie's work and shows explicit sex scenes, something Channel 4 says is "editorially justified" and "presented in a non-gratuitous manner". Seeing what happens behind the scenes is no doubt shocking, but it's the lesser known 'challenges' involving young women that are more disturbing to me. In the show, the more viral Bonnie gets, the further she leans into these extreme sex acts, as she begins relying on the use of young girls in her content. One scene shows Bonnie filming a sex tape with multiple other young female OnlyFans creators and a male porn star. Interviewing the women who have been recruited to take part in the stunt, filmed in a school classroom, the documentary's director reveals that the creators aren't being paid to take part. One young woman, who profits on OnlyFans with solo work and content with her partner, tells the camera that she's never done anything this "adventurous" and looks visibly nervous. Another timidly admits that the only time she's ever seen live sex is in Amsterdam in the red light district. A third creator, a 21-year-old woman, admits her subscribers love her content because she looks so much younger than she is. In an admission that makes my stomach churn, Bonnie says of the classroom stunt: "The fact that they are so nervous actually works in my favour, because their reactions are going to be more realistic." Bonnie seems to relish in stamping out the innocence of her participants. Yes, they've all consented. But the undercurrent of exploitation, in a classroom full of young women who have never filmed porn before, never mind extreme content, feels palpable. What message does that send out to young boys watching her videos, whose perceptions of consent and power are being shaped by such content? To me, the star appears to hide behind the guise of empowerment - both of herself and virgins, young content creators and 'normal' men - when in reality she is profiting from their vulnerability and glorifying rape culture with her 'challenges'. Her petting zoo stunt, that got cancelled after OnlyFans decided to permanently ban her from its platform at the final hour, would have seen Bonnie "tied down" in a glass box in a house in London, where strangers would come and do "whatever they wanted". Bonnie bragged in the documentary: "I am going to be completely helpless, tied down, gagged, choked". Alarmingly, a recent government review found porn involving non-fatal strangulation (NFS) was "rife" and that its prevalence online was contributing to choking becoming commonplace in some people's sex lives - particularly among young people. Even more disturbingly, the UK courts have seen an alarming rise in women's lives ending after what those accused of their deaths say were 'sex games gone wrong'. To the feminists who challenge her behaviour, Bonnie hits back, saying in the doc: "You fought for women's rights for years and years. You've fought for us to have control over our body and be empowered by that. I'm now living by that. "And suddenly you want me to shut up, have a couple of kids, get married and stay quiet, but I don't want that. If anything, I'm an image of what you've just been asking for for years and years. And suddenly you see it, and you're now thinking, f***, we don't want this woman to speak proudly of sex." As a woman who openly brags about using rage-bait as the cornerstone of her business model, spamming multiple TikTok and Instagram accounts a day with content designed to outrage, it's hard to take anything Bonnie says seriously. But she certainly refuses to take any responsibility for the influence she may have over the younger generation. When asked how she feels about young teenagers coming across her content, Bonnie admits she "forgets" to think of it from that point of view. She then says bluntly: "There's also a parent's responsibility to say, hey, there's people in the world that do mass murders. [It] doesn't mean you do that." Even if it's not Bonnie's job to educate young people on safe and healthy sex, there's something sinister in wanting to profit from those who may be vulnerable. In one part of the show, she admits: "I really want to do a disabled gang bang". Rage-bait or not, where do we draw the line at accepting such statements? And who is being "empowered" here? Channel 4 failed to press Bonnie on that vile remark. It's a show that leaves more questions than answers, and feels more like an advert than a documentary. It's too early to say just how much of an impact this new trend of extreme sex stunts will have on young people, but it feels like a nightmare waiting to happen - and, as the show does thankfully note, Bonnie clearly has no interest in taking accountability for the fallout.
