Nicola Peltz brands mom Claudia Heffner ‘a gift from God’ as Victoria Beckham is brutally ignored by estranged son Brooklyn on US Mother’s Day
Brooklyn Beckham’s self-imposed estrangement from his parents may be continuing, but the influencer’s wife suggested her own family dynamic is stronger than ever as she paid tribute to her mother over the weekend.
Brooklyn went on to go through a bitter separation from her immediate family — parents David and Victoria, brothers Romeo and Cruz, and sister Harper — following the release of a combative six-page Instagram statement in February.
But as Nicola Peltz celebrated Mother’s Day in the United States on Sunday, she gave her own mother the ultimate compliment by comparing herself to God.
The 32-year-old actress shared a childhood photo of herself and her mother, model Claudia Heffner, on Instagram and wrote: ‘Happy Mother’s Day to my everything.’
In a second post, she added: ‘My mother is a gift from God.’
This tribute inevitably drew more attention to her husband, who chose to ignore his own mother; It was the latest in a series of snubs that also included his father’s landmark 50th birthday celebration last May and his subsequent appointment to Windsor Castle.

In response, David and Victoria ignored their estranged son’s demands that he be removed from their family by including him in their own Mother’s Day celebrations.
On Sunday, the United States and Australia celebrated Mother’s Day; Meanwhile, David shared a post branding his wife the ‘best mum’, before Victoria took to Instagram to share a sweet photo of the gifts her husband had showered her with.
Victoria shared a photo of a stunning bouquet of white roses, along with five stencils of the babies’ hands and feet, placed on a table at their home in Holland Park, West London.
In 2011, before Harper’s arrival, it was reported that the couple had made gold-plated casts of their hands and feet by London company First Impressions, using kits worth £1,000 at the time.
Brooklyn announced in January that he wanted to get away from his family; He insisted he was no longer part of ‘Brand Beckham’, claimed his parents were ‘performers’ and accused Victoria of ‘dancing inappropriately’ at his wedding.
Brooklyn now has endless admiration for his father-in-law (Nicola’s parents, Nelson Peltz, 83) and former model Claudia, 71.
On Friday, Nicola posed for a cozy photo on Instagram as she attacked the Beckhams once again amid their ongoing feud.
She took to social media to post a photo of herself and Brooklyn with their billionaire parents, Nelson and Claudia.
“My whole heart and world in one photo,” she captioned the photo.
During a recent program attended by Emma Grede suitor Fashion designer Victoria said on the podcast it was ‘never their intention’ to build their £500million empire, known as ‘Brand Beckham’, and insisted she was not an ‘aggressive parent’.

During the interview, Dragons’ Den entrepreneur Emma asked the former Spice Girl how she decides what ‘stays personal’ and what is part of Brand Beckham.
The line of questioning appeared to reference Brooklyn’s scathing six-page affidavit, in which she claimed she had been “controlled” by her parents for much of her life through “performative social media posts, family activities, and inauthentic relationships.”
Victoria said: ‘When David and I first met we never intended to start a brand. People talk about the “Beckham Brand”; This happened very organically. When I first met David, he was a Brylcreem kid.
‘So David was in Adidas, Brylcreem and Pepsi and I was in the Spice Girls and that’s where I learned a lot about how to build a brand and marketing.
‘While he was making Brylcreem and Adidas, the Spice Girls were making Walker’s chips, Pepsi, Chupa Chups lollies and deodorant.
On Sunday, Victoria shared a photo of a stunning bouquet of white roses, along with five stencils of the babies’ hands and feet, placed on a table at their home in Holland Park, West London.
‘Do you know? True story, my mom still has Spice Girls pizza in her oven. That pizza has been in the freezer for thirty-something years. So when people talk about the ‘Beckham Brand’, it was never something we discussed.’
Victoria insisted that as their success grew, they continued to focus on their separate projects, with David trying to start his own football club, Inter Miami, while she was building her own fashion and beauty empire.
He continued: ‘We don’t have any agreements together. David does what David does, I do what I do.
‘It’s always been this way. Our interests are very different. I think it was the outside world that really talked about Brand Beckham, we never saw it that way.
‘We just do what we do.’
