BECKHAM FAMILY FEU ‘IT’S US OR

-

Tension over a wedding guest list can cause havoc for any family – but for the Beckhams, the stakes are a little higher than most. As David and Victoria plot a star-studded wedding for their eldest son Brooklyn – who announced his engagement to American heiress Nicola Peltz in July – we’re told the family are butting heads over which members of the British monarchy to invite.

At the top of the bride and groom’s invitee priorities are Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Brooklyn, 21, knows the Duke of Sussex through his dad, while Nicola, 25, is starstruck by the idea of having the duchess at her nuptials.

“She’s a real go-getter, that Nicola,” dishes an insider. “She’s very keen to move to LA permanentl­y and become besties with the Sussexes.”

But the young couple’s grand plan has hit a brick wall due to the growing rift between Posh and Becks and the Sussexes.

The foursome used to be quite close, with David, 45, and Victoria, 46, attending Harry and Meghan’s own wedding back in 2018. However, earlier this year it was reported by The Sun on Sunday newspaper that the couples had fallen out, after Meghan, 39, all but accused Posh of leaking stories about her to the British press!

It’s said “protective” Harry, 35, confronted David over his wife’s concerns, which led to a “pretty awkward exchange” between the friends.

“Vic was mortified when it happened,” a separate source told Closer magazine at the time. “She and David were both shocked and hurt.”

While both couples agreed to move on from the saga, Posh

David even took part in a video chat with the Duke of Cambridge in July, to discuss the importance of mental health within the

Given the Sussexes’ own family feud with the Cambridges, the Beckhams believe inviting both royal couples is “out of the question”.

MARIA SHRIVER, 64

She’s denied getting plastic surgery, but Us-based cosmetic dermatolog­ist Dr Peterson Pierre still believes that Maria “has probably had Botox on her forehead and in her frown lines”. Dr Pierre adds that laser resurfacin­g or a chemical peel may also explain why the mother-offour’s skin is no longer thin and crepe-like. “Unfortunat­ely, they didn’t treat her neck as well,” he says. “It’s best to treat the face and décolletag­e together to maintain harmony.”

YOLANDA HADID, 56

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, who suffers from Lyme disease, posted a sultry selfie on her last birthday, revealing that she’d gone all-natural. “Living in a body free of breast implants, fillers, Botox … and all the bulls--t I thought I needed,” she wrote. “The toxicity of it all almost killed me.”
