Brooklyn Beckham says proposing to Nicola Peltz was his 'best decision'
Brooklyn Beckham considers proposing to Nicola Peltz to be the "best decision" he's ever made.
The 26-year-old star has taken to social media to mark five years since he proposed to the 30-year-old actress, whom he married in Palm Beach, Florida in April 2022.
Alongside a selfie of the loved-up couple sharing a warm embrace, Brooklyn wrote on Instagram: "It's been 5 years since I asked this beautiful woman to marry me xx best decision ever x I love you so much [heart emoji] (sic)"
Brooklyn and Nicola actually announced their engagement via social media in July 2020.
Brooklyn - who is the eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham - wrote on Instagram at the time: "Two weeks ago I asked my soulmate to marry me and she said yes. I am the luckiest man in the world. I promise to be the best husband and the best daddy one day [heart emoji] I love you baby xx (sic)"
Nicola echoed similar sentiments in her own Instagram post.
She wrote on the photo-sharing platform: "You've made me the luckiest girl in the world. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life by your side. your love is the most precious gift. I love you so so much baby (sic)"
Meanwhile, Brooklyn recently opened up about his wedding day, revealing that his anxiety "disappeared" when he saw Nicola walking down the aisle.
He told Glamour: "I'm usually chill speaking in front of people, but that day I was a wreck. Nicola kept me waiting for ten minutes and it felt like forever. But when I saw her, everything else disappeared."
Brooklyn subsequently got a tattoo as a way of marking his wedding day.
He shared: "I had our vows tattooed on me. I've got well over a hundred tattoos now. I wasn't allowed to get any until I turned 18 - my parents were strict about that."
Nicola also recalled feeling nervous on her wedding day. However, she found Brooklyn to be a reassuring presence.
The actress said: "I was so nervous. Saying our vows in front of that many people? Terrifying. Someone told me, 'Just look at Brooklyn.' And as soon as I did, the nerves faded."

Evonne Goolagong Cawley comes face to face with her past, and future in actor Lila McGuire
Goolagong Cawley also recounted her famous 1971 Wimbledon victory as a 19-year-old against reigning champion Margaret Court in a 6-4, 6-1 win. She noted Court was playing below her best. 'I was thinking, 'Oh, she really didn't play that well.' Then I found out she was pregnant. And I've thanked [Court's husband] Barry since.' Attendees at Melbourne's Plaza Ballroom on Saturday night included other Indigenous athletes Lydia Williams, a former Matildas player, and Olympian Kyle Vander-Kuyp. Also spotted were actor Mia Pimentel and her partner, Indigenous reality star Brooke Blurton, a former star of The Bachelorette who has just published a young adult fiction novel with Melanie Saward titled A Good Kind of Trouble.

Also on hand were chief executive of the Australian Industry Group Innes Willox and wife Jane, John and Rasa Bertrand and Aunty Joy Murphy Wandin. Spirited bidding by Danny Wallace, serial buyer of 11 properties on reality show The Block , helped to raise $100,000 on the night.

Mostyn's daughter, actor Lotte Beckett, is a performer in the play, selected after a rigorous audition process for the show, which chronicles Gillard's life and times, culminating with her famous 'I Will Not' feminist cris de coeur in the House of Representatives. After the opening night of the return season at the Arts Centre, Melbourne on Thursday night, Beckett took to social media to thank 'beautiful friends, brilliant agents, iconic mentors and wonderful parents'. 'When I was little I used to dress up in red lipstick to go and see Sydney Theatre Company shows, and now I get to dance (literally) on the Playhouse stage every night. I get nervous before I go on, and then when I'm out there everything feels calm and right,' Beckett posted on Instagram. The governor-general told us: 'Simeon and I have not missed an opening night of our daughter's acting career. It was a special night with an astonishing performance by Justine Clarke, and we were so proud to see Lotte's wonderful debut with STC.' End of an era A major shifting of the tectonic plates that make up the earth's media-legal-defamation-judicial crust: MinterEllison partner Peter Bartlett is retiring today. Well, sort of. Bartlett who has been a partner at Minters for a record-breaking 51 years, will take up a new advisory role at the firm, becoming a 'partner emeritus'.

'I will be keeping an eye on the strategic decisions on all the files that I have been very active with, including Ben Roberts-Smith.' Former soldier Roberts-Smith, who lost his appeal to the Full Court of the Federal Court against a landmark Federal Court ruling that he had committed war crimes, has sought special leave to appeal to the High Court. The court is considering the matter. As we reported last year, Bartlett has five children and 12 grandchildren, and his family has been encouraging him to retire for 15 years. Loading He has worked on some of the biggest legal cases in Australian history, involving Kerry Packer, Abe Saffron, Mick Gatto, Tony Madafferi, Justice Lionel Murphy, Robert Trimbole, Christopher Dale Flannery, Dr Geoffrey Edelsten and Roger Rogerson. He also acted for the widow of Donald McKay in the special inquiry into McKay's murder. He was admitted to practice in 1973, and in 1974 was made a partner at the law firm that is now MinterEllison, where he has worked with some 19 editors of The Age . Bartlett will continue to be chair of the membership committee of the International Bar Association, so there will be an opportunity to partake in a rigorous international calendar of conferences and events. 'I have had an enjoyable career being challenged by some of the best lawyers in the country and have acted in some of the largest media-related cases this country has ever seen, and now as maybe Gough Whitlam said, 'It's time … to slow down.''
