Brooklyn Beckham and Wife Nicola Peltz Attended His Godfather Elton John's Oscars Party amid the Ongoing Rift with His Parents

The eldest Beckham son and his wife of three years turned up to his godfather's Oscars bash hours after he ignored his mother on Mother's Day — and the photos from the night at the end of this article are ones you will not want to miss.

When a godfather pulls his godson aside at a Hollywood party and the photographs make the rounds, people tend to notice, and Sunday evening in West Hollywood was one of those nights.

On 15 March 2026, Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, 27, and his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham, were among the guests at the Elton John AIDS Foundation's 34th Annual Academy Awards Viewing Party hosted by Brooklyn's godfather, Sir Elton John, in California, United States.

Their attendance came as tensions between Brooklyn and the Beckham family remain unresolved, and for the evening, Nicola wore a black one-shoulder crochet dress while the 27-year-old donned a dark suit over an open-collar shirt.

His tattooed hands were visible throughout the night, including the piece of his wife's name inked across his fingers. However, for those who have been following the Beckham family rift, the photographs from the night offered plenty more to consider.

In a few snaps, Sir Elton was seen mid-conversation with the couple, his expression notably stern, while Brooklyn sat close to Nicola, both of them unsmiling.

The bond between the Beckham family and the iconic musician stretches back over 30 years, with Brooklyn's father, David Beckham, having long called the singer "Uncle Elton," a friendship that took root during David's football years.

Those photographs of the two of them mid-conversation, then, were not lost on the public. However, footage and images from the couple's appearance also circulated quickly, drawing a wave of comments from onlookers.

"He's so creepy," wrote one viewer. Another was more pointed, adding, "He is holding her very very [sic] tight." A third offered a different read altogether, writing, "I bet Elton gave him a talking to!" while someone else responded, "I hope so too he is a spoilt brat sort him out elton [sic]."

However, what some of those commenting may not have known was that the evening had followed a day that already had Brooklyn making headlines for very different reasons.

Sunday, 15 March was Mother's Day in the UK, and while his mother, former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham, received no mention on her son's social media, someone else did.

Earlier that day, Brooklyn reshared a post from Nicola to his own Instagram story, celebrating his wife's mother, Claudia Heffner Peltz, who had turned 71 earlier that week.

Nicola had shared a series of photographs from their celebrations, with Brooklyn pictured alongside the two women in one of the images.

His caption left no one in any doubt about where his affections lay, as it read, "Happy birthday to the best mother-in-law x. Love u so much and hope u had the most amazing day."

As for Victoria, she received no such post as Brooklyn Beckham had not published anything for his mother on Mother's Day at the time of writing.

The reaction online was swift and unsparing. "That's just wrong," wrote one commenter. Another kept it brief, sharing, "Cruel intentions." A third was direct, adding, "Absolutely no excuse for his behavior."

In the end, with the Beckham family saga showing no signs of quieting down, one thing is certain — the public will be watching every move closely, and they will always have something to say.
