Brooklyn Beckham's family rift deepens as he turns back on UK by splashing out £11m on LA mansion with wife Nicola Peltz

The Sun5 days ago

BROOKLYN Beckham has bought a US mansion with his wife — in a move likely to deepen the divide with his parents.
Influencer Brooklyn, 26, and actress Nicola Peltz, 30, exchanged on the £10.5million property in Hollywood last week after previously renting.

It means he has put down roots 5,540 miles from his London-based dad David and mum Victoria - and shows no sign of returning home any time soon.
Last night a source said: 'Brooklyn's wife is American, as are her family whom he adores, and he feels his life now is Stateside.
'As an influencer he can work from anywhere but Brooklyn believes he has more opportunities in LA. It will be a dagger to the heart for his parents.
"Until now, the couple have always been renting so there was hope his relocation wouldn't be permanent.
'This house purchase quashes any last hopes.'
The stunning five-bedroom, six-bathroom property boasts a state-of-the-art home cinema, gym and infinity pool.
Meanwhile, newly knighted former England captain David had lunch at an East End pie and mash shop with his mum Sandra and sister Jo.

The dad of four revealed that his mother cried when she heard he was to be a Sir — and also wept during their meal.
News of Brooklyn's house purchase comes after he snubbed his dad on Father's Day.
David proudly displayed photos of his eldest son on Instagram — amid silence from across the Atlantic.
The duo have not spoken since Becks turned 50 on May 2.
Nicola, daughter of billionaire Nelson, has been accused of driving a wedge between parents and son, 'effectively holding him hostage'.
Meanwhile, Brooklyn is said to blame his younger brother Romeo's ex Kim Turnbull.
However, the DJ hit back this week after breaking up with Romeo, vehemently denying claims she previously dated Brooklyn.
She posted online: 'Nothing between us has occurred further than a school friendship at age 16.'

‘I find it sad and difficult to listen to the Smiths': Ana Matronic's honest playlist

The first song I fell in love with I was obsessed as a child with the Muppets and Sesame Street. My grandmother made me a puppet of the Count to help practise my counting. I loved The Pinball Number Count with the Pointer Sisters counting up 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 / 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 / 11/ 12 which is prophetic because I still consider the Pointer Sisters one of my all-time favourite bands. The first record I bought I was playing Delirious by Prince for my mother in 1982, and she said: 'He sounds like Little Richard.' I said: 'Who is Little Richard?' and she said: 'Get in the car, young lady,' and we went and bought a Little Richard greatest hits set. It was the start of a long conversation about music with my mom. The song I do at karaoke Psycho Killer by Talking Heads, Should I Stay Or Should I Go by the Clash, or – in the right mood – Pulp's Common People. The song I inexplicably know every lyric to You're speaking to someone who used to be a drag queen and is involved still in nightlife on Fire Island. I explicably know the words to lots of songs, especially if they are well known in the LGBTQ+ community. I've never owned Believe by Cher, but I can sing every word. The best song to get the party started I play so many kinds of parties: house music, disco, 80s, alternative. The one song they all agree is that Pull Up to the Bumper by Grace Jones is an absolute party starter. The song I can no longer listen to I find it sad and difficult to listen to the Smiths, but I still listen by pure virtue of Johnny Marr's guitar brilliance. How Soon Is Now was on such constant rotation when my father passed away, I'm sure my mom hates it now. The song I secretly like I don't believe in guilty pleasures. I think all pleasures should be enjoyed. I absolutely love – and can murder on karaoke – [US heavy metal band] Danzig. You'll often find me, late at night, headbanging. The song that changed my life I already loved Duran Duran and was a bit of a new romantic. But when my older sister brought home The Head on the Door by the Cure and I heard Inbetween Days, I went straight to the record store to talk to the guy behind the counter about my next purchase. The song that gets me up in the morning Straight Shooter by the Mamas and the Papas. Sign up to Inside Saturday The only way to get a look behind the scenes of the Saturday magazine.

Preferably in a van. The song that makes me cry My friend Amber Martin does an incredible show, where she recreates Bette Midler's Bathhouse performances from the 1970s and you have to check your clothes and wear a towel, so it's just like going to the Continental Baths in 1972. When she does I Shall Be Released by Bob Dylan, it always makes me cry. The song I'd like played at my funeral Lavender Coffin by Lionel Hampton. I could get a lavender coffin, that'd be great. I could just rent it. I don't have to be inside. Maybe the Count from Sesame Street could be inside, and come out and sing. That's what I want. Ana Matronic's Good Time Sallies podcast is out now.

LeBron James speaks out on when he will retire from the NBA

LeBron James admitted his days in the NBA are running out as the 40-year-old addressed possible retirement on Saturday. The Lakers legend appeared on stage alongside Tom Brady and Victor Wembanyama at Fanatics Fest in New York City. When asked how much longer he had in the league, James chuckled and pointed at Brady. 'He played until he was 58! 'I don't know, man... I can't play that much further.' LeBron then gestured to Wembanyama and suggested the 7ft 3ins Frenchman might push him into retirement. 'The more and more time I play as long as he keeps smacking my f***ing shots into the stands, it's going to make me retire,' he said. The NBA legend was egged on by former quarterback Brady, who shouted: 'You're still young!' Brady, who played in the NFL until he was 45, told James: 'You look so good out there!' WARNING - EXPLICIT CONTENT LeBron James says he won't play 'that much further' and jokes that Wemby might push him into retirement — Ryan Garcia (@RyanGarciaESM) June 21, 2025 The NBA legend will turn 41 in December and he is already teammates with his son, Bronny (L) LeBron's future has been the subject of renewed speculation since the Lakers were beaten in the first round of the playoffs by the Minnesota Timberwolves. James is a four-time NBA champion and the league's all-time leading points scorer. But he will turn 41 in December and is already teammates with his son, Bronny. The 40-year-old is under contract with the Lakers through the end of the 2026 season, when he would become an unrestricted free agent. Earlier this week, the NBA legend hinted he could move into acting after the end of his basketball career. James has previously hosted ' Saturday Night Live ' and was the star in the movie 'Space Jam: A New Legacy'. 'If the scripts start to roll in and there's an opportunity for me to do some acting and I have the time... I don't mind looking at it and seeing if I can make it happen,' James said to the Hollywood Reporter.
