Nicola Peltz and her in-laws closer than ever amid tense Beckham family rift

Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham have sensationally fallen out with his family since their 2022 wedding - but it seems they get on like a house on fire with her side of the family Much has been made of the tense fallout between Nicola Peltz and Brooklyn Beckham against his family. The couple married in a lavish ceremony in 2022 under happier times, with all of 26-year-old Brooklyn's family present and correct at the nuptials. But soon after, rumours began to emerge of a rift between the couple and his famous parents; the former footballer David Beckham, 50, and former Spice Girls singer Victoria Beckham, 51. More recently, family dramas reached a new peak as speculation erupted that Brooklyn and Nicola, 30, had fallen out with his brothers Romeo, 22, and Cruz, 20 - while many fans noticed the couple seemingly snubbed David's 50th birthday celebrations. ‌ While the dramatic fallout continues to generate headlines, some fans have questioned how Nicola gets on with her other in-laws. As the daughter of billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz, 83, and his model wife Claudia Heffner Peltz, 70, the Transformer star is one of eight siblings. ‌ She is the sister of brothers Matthew, 40, Will, 39, Brad, 35, Diesel, 27, twins Zachary and Gregory, 22, and a sister named Brittany, 31. With her brothers and sister also enjoying high-profile romances, it is claimed that Nicola gets along much better with her side of the family than with the Beckham clan. Here we look at Nicola and Brooklyn's friendships with some of her extended family. ‌ Will Peltz and fiancée Kenya Jones TV and film fans may recognise Nicola's older brother Will, 39, who has starred in big and small screen dramas including Men, Women & Children, Entourage, and Euphoria. Where there has been no drama, however, is between Will, his fiancée, and his younger sister. He has been in a relationship with American fashion model Kenya Kinski-Jones since 2011 - and in recent weeks they became engaged. They shared the happy news on social media, with Kenya writing: "Just engaged. My whole heart for my whole life," with Nicola enthusiastically adding: "Best news ever!" It is believed Nicola - who has a matching tattoo with Will which reads "family" in Hebrew - and Kenya are very close friends. They attended The Daily Front Row Fashion Los Angeles Awards in 2016 and have holidayed together, along with Brooklyn and Will in 2022. ‌ In 2024, when Kenya's father Quincy Jones died at the age of 91, Nicola was one to offer her condolences. In an emotional Instagram post, she wrote: "Quincy, my heart is shattered I can't comprehend saying goodbye to you so I won't, I will say see you later." Nicola continued: "You were truly a gift from God. The legacy you have left here on earth is not only your musical genius that has touched the hearts of millions of people, but the most beautiful children that you raised - the Jones family, my family - I am so beyond grateful to know them. Quincy, I can't believe I got lucky enough in this life to grow up knowing your love, wisdom, laughter and light. The twinkle in your eye perfectly matched your smile and lit up this world. Your humour was unmatched, and you made me laugh more than anything. I miss laughing with you. "I love you so much q I will miss you every single day and everyday I will be reminded of your beauty through your unbelievable children. I promise to look out for Kenya for the rest of my life. She is my chosen sister and has your magic running through her. Love always your pita." ‌ Zach Peltz and girlfriend Aislinn Carnes Nicola's youngest brothers are twins Zach and Gregory and while they are professional ice hockey players, they generally keep themselves out of the spotlight. However, some details of Zach's private life - and his closeness to Nicola - have been revealed. He is in a loving romance with Instagram model Aislinn - with the pair occasionally posting loved-up snaps together. The pair shared a photo of their NYE kiss in 2023 and another snap showed them with their arms around each other. ‌ Their posts draw attention from the Peltz family who like the snaps and offer rare comments. In one post shared at Thanksgiving, Nicola responded with a string of heart eyed emojis to a photo of her brother and his girlfriend snuggled together. Meanwhile, the Daily Mail reports: "Brooklyn is fond of Zach and Aislinn as the four have previously spent time together in fun-filled images." Bradley Peltz and former flame Selena Gomez ‌ Fans looking for proof that Nicola is able to balance her family loyalties with close friendships - the evidence they seek is in her continued friendship with pop singer and actress Selena Gomez. While the Only Murders In The Building star is now engaged to music producer Benny Blanco, she was previously linked to former ice hockey player Bradley, 35. Brooklyn is also close to Selena, and the trio has been known to spend time together socially. Selena even celebrated Thanksgiving with Brooklyn and Nicola one year, with fans noting that Brad was also present at the celebrations. The Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast previously delved into the speculation about Selena and Brad back when rumours of a romance were ablaze. ‌ One fan claimed: "Streets saying Selena Gomez dating Brad Peltz omg." And another commented: "Selena is dating Brad Peltz?" - while fans also noted how frequently the pair were liking each other's social media posts. Selena began her relationship with Benny in 2023 and became engaged at the end of last year. Nicola and Selena also follow each other on Instagram. ‌ Matthew Peltz and Hallie Dunn Nicola's oldest brother, Matthew, has been married to his wife, Hallie Dunn, since 2018, and the couple welcomed a son in 2020. The couple keep themselves largely out of the spotlight, but it is believed Nicola is close to them and loves being an aunt to toddler nephew Asher Lion. Nicola shared a social media snap about the growing family not long after Asher arrived, in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic. She wrote online at the time: "Watching my big brother and his beautiful wife Hallie become new parents is incredible ,especially during this scary time. I hope all the new parents and babies are safe." Nicola's other siblings, Brad, Diesel and Gregory, are very fame shy, but fans could expect Nicola and Brooklyn to be closer to them than they are to his family. While Nicola and Brooklyn wished his sister Harper Seven Beckham a happy birthday earlier this month, it has been noticed that they have unfollowed Cruz and Romeo, fuelling speculation that the rift between the family members may be terminal.

TNB ToU scheme helps Malaysians save on electricity bills

KUALA LUMPUR: Domestic and non-domestic low-voltage consumers with smart meters can now take advantage of the Time of Use (ToU) scheme for smarter energy management. The initiative, introduced by Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), allows users to adjust their electricity consumption to off-peak hours for cost savings. The ToU scheme is available for customers with smart meters, Current Transformer (CT) Operated Meters, or Remote Meter Reading (RMR) systems. By scheduling high-energy activities like laundry, air conditioning, or electric vehicle charging during off-peak periods, consumers can lower their monthly bills. 'With the option to schedule electricity usage during cheaper off-peak hours, consumers can now proactively reduce their monthly bills without compromising comfort,' said TNB. The revised ToU scheme includes extended off-peak periods—all day on weekends and from 10 pm to 2 pm on weekdays. Peak hours are from 2 pm to 10 pm, Monday to Friday. For example, off-peak rates for usage below 1,500 kWh are set at 24.43 sen/kWh, while peak rates are 28.52 sen/kWh for ToU users, compared to 27.03 sen/kWh for standard domestic consumers. To help estimate savings, TNB provides an online Electricity Bill Calculator on the myTNB portal. Consumers can compare tariffs before switching. Applications for the ToU scheme open on July 1, 2025, via email (tnbtou@ or at Kedai Tenaga outlets. Online applications will be available from August 1, 2025. For details, visit or call TNB CareLine at 1300-88-5454.

Engineer Builds a Rideable Real-Life Transformer, and It's Pretty Cool — GeekTyrant

Some childhood dreams just won't die. Case in point, engineer James Bruton, who actually built a rideable Transformer that can switch between a small drivable car and a towering six-foot humanoid robot. In the video below, Bruton shows off the mechanics behind the project, which transforms (slowly, but still!) from vehicle to upright robot mode with the push of a button. It's not about speed or battle-readiness, it's just about the sheer joy of making something this absurdly fun.
