Nicola Peltz has once again drawn attention for mirroring her mother-in-law Victoria Beckham, this time by recreating a signature fashion pose that has only intensified the speculation around their ongoing family tensions.
On Thursday, the 30-year-old model and actress shared a set of Instagram photos in which she posed wearing a white hotel bathrobe and a towel wrapped around her hair. The look closely resembled a similar photoshoot shared just last month by Victoria Beckham, 51, reigniting talks of Nicola emulating the iconic Spice Girl-turned-designer.
This is not the first time Nicola has taken style cues from her famous relative. Earlier this year in February, she was seen wearing a Dolce & Gabbana leather jacket identical to the one Victoria wore in 2001.
But the timing of Nicola’s latest post appears pointed. Just hours before, Victoria Beckham had snubbed her eldest son Brooklyn Beckham in a family tribute to her father-in-law Ted Beckham’s 77th birthday. While Victoria tagged children Romeo, Cruz, and Harper in her celebratory post, she left out Brooklyn and Nicola, adding fuel to speculation that the rift between them has not healed.
Brooklyn, 26, responded with his own post, sharing a heartfelt birthday message and a photo with his grandfather, writing: “Happy birthday grandad. I love you xx.” The exclusion from Victoria’s post appeared to sting, particularly given that Brooklyn had previously remained quiet during other key family moments, including his father's 50th birthday celebrations.
Nicola and Brooklyn were spotted enjoying a luxurious getaway in St. Tropez, hosted by Nicola’s billionaire father Nelson Peltz. One particularly telling moment from the trip included Brooklyn having beers with Nelson and sharing a romantic sunset kiss with Nicola, suggesting strong ties to her side of the family.
The couple’s vacation also included an exclusive lunch with Brooklyn’s godfather Sir Elton John at La Guérite, a beachfront restaurant in the South of France. According to reports, Elton, a longtime friend of David and Victoria, subtly encouraged reconciliation during the outing. A source told The Sun, “Elton just wants everyone to be happy. He loves Brooklyn and has a laugh with Nicola. He’s trying to act as a spiritual adviser without taking sides.”
Nicola later posted more glamorous photos from the trip, including one where she appeared completely nude under a bathrobe, further cementing the comparisons to Victoria’s earlier fashion post.
The family dynamics between the Beckhams and the Peltz clan continue to be a source of public fascination, with fans closely watching social media for clues. Whether Nicola’s mirrored fashion choices are symbolic or simply stylish coincidences remains up for debate — but one thing’s clear: the spotlight on this high-profile family feud isn’t dimming anytime soon.
