When your narc wife tells you to do it or else, a weak man does it.

People like you who are always looking for a woman to blame for a man's behavior are just pathetic.


You genuinely believe he cared about the petty wedding issues listed, years later? Sure.

If there is one thing I've learned is that the celebrity gossip stories tend to recycle the same plot but with different characters.

Take a son famous since birth and a well-known or beloved family. The woman marrying said son will always be cast as the villain in the celebrity gossip story world.

When you see the story the first time, you probably think what a wench the wife is and how could she take son away from his beloved family. But then you keep seeing the same story play out and the impact lessens. You're like, "wait, I've seen this story before" and you become skeptical of it and makes you rethink the first time you heard the story.

I've been around long enough to see this story play out with JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, Prince Harry and Meaghan and now Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola.


Well, if we're comparing to the Kardashians, the marriages don't last with the over bearing mother in law.

He did this to prove his loyalty to his wife. She felt she was taking the fall for the situation in terms of PR, wanted and needed his public defense. Doesn't make her look any better though, and he just looks dumb, impulsive, and entirely under her control given how petty and Nicola-centered the "issues" are.


Probably a last ditch effort to save the marriage. Not too surprising for a recent vow renewal for a marriage in its first few years. Separation announcement can't be too far off.

I personally presume it is because he was feeling pressure from Nicola.

Since he’s clearly just parroting her concerns, yes.



I can only imagine what it’s like living with someone that spoiled and self-centered. He’s not the brightest bulb, must be very easy to manipulate.

She also looks frail these days, like she’s developed an ED. I’m sure he feels obligated to “protect” her as she cries daily about how horribly she’s been treated. What a mess.


He's not bright and she's 5 years older than him. They got together and after the wedding he became estranged from his family. It honestly does sound like the Harry and Meagan dynamic!

Something's not right. He and his wife said they did the vow renewal bc they were so traumatized by their wedding. The fact that her parents are encouraging all of this (which is pretty obvious is appalling). Nelson Peltz doesn't have a good reputation, and there's a reason for that. A quick google should tell any sane person all the info they need to know to take a side in this feud (in the event the Beckhams track record wasn't enough evidence that they aren't terrible parents).


I mean, who really needs to take a side? They're all absurdly rich. Also quite eccentric. That tends to happen when you're rich and no one ever corrects you / tells it to you straight. It's just the circus of the day. I can empathize with both sides. But I don't really bother because it's all performative and they'll all be just fine. It's a nice distraction while WWIII is brewing.


Nobody HAS to take a side but we are all here discussing a juicy feud in the Entertainment forum. Most posters have expressed which way they lean.
