Wedding of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz

[Anonymous]

Not saying they’ll have kids anytime soon, but it is increasingly status symbol to be a young hot rich mom.

Maybe he wanted to settle down with someone who isn't after him for his family wealth because she has more money.

I watched the British Vogue Mr and Mrs video, and their favorite date night is staying in to watch the Gilmore girls.

She looks a lot like Paris Hilton, right?

I think it’s weird to not go to college when you have so muc money. Live somewhere fun live London or LA or NY and go somewhere not that great if you can’t get in, but then at least you have three to four years to make friends, learn something, etc.

Because it is. The average first marriage age for an American male is 29 and for an American female it's 27.]

I barely know any married younger millennials or older Gen Zers in their early-mid 20s, but I’m an older Millennial born in the mid-80s and like, 23-26 was prime wedding time for me and my friends. Multiple weddings every summer and fall, people showing up at work with engagement rings all the time.

Where are you from, and where were you living from 23-26? I'm roughly the same age and this was not at all my experience. I was 26 when my first friend got married (and she's a couple years older than me), and prime wedding time for my friends was 29-33. I feel like that is much more the norm of our peers, but it may be a urban/rural or regional divide thing.

NP. Has been for a long time. Most of my high school class mates and family friends married and/or had a kid by 24.

The British side seems trashy (too many tats and boobs falling out of dresses) and the American side, not much better (Miami: need I say more?). The bride and groom seem like vacuous wastrels who've never been asked to develop skills or self-reliance by their self-absorbed parents. Nobody is exceptionally good-looking and the groom especially looks like a very, very average lower-class British bloke, with sparse facial hair and unmemorable beige features that call to mind the lads that hang about grim council flats on the gloomy outskirts of London.

They signed an ironclad prenup so there won't even be any money drama when they inevitably divorce.

I click on the DM stories hoping against hope for something interesting or lovely to look at and I just see a bunch of mediocre-looking people and C-list celebrities, and I feel a crushing sense of ennui. Give me a royal wedding any day, or an A-list celeb wedding in Malibu. But this one is just depressing. Do better, DM. Do better.

This is a fabulous review.

I feel like we don't really get it in America, but Posh and Becks are wealthy in spite of the crushing class differences still alive and well in the UK. They aren't socially upper class and I don't think they want to be. Their kids are products of that.

DM has predicted some things accurately.

I grew up in the Midwest. Most of my friends have 4 year degrees, some only 2 or they went right to work or enlisted, but most had college degrees. I went to 6 weddings when I was 24-25, and got married myself at 25 (almost 26), and went to 3 other weddings that same year! My younger sister also got married at 25. But just speaking of the younger people I know and work with, they’re almost all single, not even seriously dating. I moved to this area when I was 28 and there were people at my new job who were shocked that I had already been married for almost 3 years. So I think it’s definitely regional.

I do agree that it’s beginning to be a status symbol thing to be a young(ish) hot mom amongst celebs. So I wouldn’t be surprised if they had a kid sooner rather than later.

I need an investigation of that step grandmother wearing the wild outfit showing her underwear with a plastic clip in her hair. Please someone spill the tea.

Yeah that dress she chose was neither flattering nor age appropriate

Totally agree re status symbol. Gigi Hadid, Kylie Jenner, Sophie Turner, etc. It shows off the fact that they don't need to settle down after having kids because they have the resources to hire an army of nannies/fly private/etc. Also that they don't have to spend their 20s focused on their careers because they have plenty of money (and, if their career is looks-based, they can pay to nip/tuck their way back to perfection immediately).

The only thing that money can't buy is relationship stability, but maybe a billion dollars makes co-parenting with an ex simple too. Or being dumb in your early 20s is a cross-class phenomenon.

Nicola Peltz isn’t that young (age 27). Brooklyn is young (age 23) but he does sound like a home-body and if he doesn’t have much in the way of career aspirations, getting married is probably a good use of time.
