I just read that Brooklyn Beckham is getting married. I thought he would be about 15 years old, no he's 23 😁

I feel old. 23? Christ.
Surely he shouldn't be getting married though? Isn't he very immature and got all riled by criticisms of his poor photography?

Brooklyn Beckham is the same age as my eldest, who is nowhere near mature enough to be getting married. But then I know of someone else from DSs school year who recently got married aged 22 - initially I thought that was very young, but he left uni 18 months ago and is an actual gown up, so what do I know?!

She had such a cute face pre-surgery. It's amazing that someone who is naturally attractive like that feels the need to create whole new face.

PaperTyger · 11/04/2022 12:20

In all fairness though this pelts man is self made and incredibly rich.
Should they have not gone for a wedding matching their status and instead gone to the local run down hotel And said, host our wedding?

Re the "conversation" when she said she was marrying Brooklyn... she's only 27 , mum's an ex model and she's had plastic surgery as a previously beautiful girl.
That reflect much I think on their family sadly.

PaperTyger · 11/04/2022 12:22

It's Just so cringy that he's now a chef.

I love chefs several in my family it's demeaning to properly trained chefs!

What schools did the Beckham boys go to!

HairyToity · 11/04/2022 12:23

I never approve of the Beckham's bringing their children up in the public eye. I think celebs should have their kids faces blurred till they are old enough to choose whether to play the fame game. The photography book was an error. If he could live his life out of public eye, then he could have made his photo errors, without the riddicule. He could learn to be a chef from the bottom up, and have a proper chef training. Then if he wanted to be TV chef or have a restaurant could do so later on, when he has more chef experience and gravitas. He might be rich, but he still needs a purpose, and to find his way in life, out of public glare. A lifetime of holidays and being part of the idle rich, showing off on instagram all the time, isn't healthy. I don't envy him.

Nicola was pretty before the surgery. Now she just looks samey.

Marriage lasting? I'd be surprised. I suppose they both share a privileged upbringing, and seem to like the limelight.

Confused
UniBallEye · 11/04/2022 12:27

crikey, that entire wedding was a style-free zone wasn't it?
From the photos in the link shared earlier in the thread there wasn't a single element that I liked.

The fashion was all awful. Wonder what the dress code. VB has designed some elegant dresses so I was really surprised to see her in that dress which looked like a 90's throwback of the styles she used to wear.

Romeo Beckham is handsome.

PaperTyger · 11/04/2022 12:28

Hairy I agree his wiki page is embarrassing.
It's all thoughtless.
I'm sure at the moment he doesn't care but I agree you still need a passion an occupation in life.

ElenaSt · 11/04/2022 12:28

The picture with the long straight hair is sister Brittany. Hair pulled back picture is Nicola before surgery who looks a lot like her big sister.

Blonde picture is how Nicola looks now and looks like a completely different person.

I wonder what the sister thinks about this?

Hairy do any of people at that level expect marriage too last?

Were the God parents there's?

PaperTyger · 11/04/2022 12:31

Elena I think she looks so pretty in the first one.
She looks pretty with the work but samey as all the other worked on blonde S.

Her sister Also look's absolutely lovely.what a huge Shame

Apparently their first dance was to Elvis ( no not in person, even the Peltz family aren’t rich enough to revive the dead!) . The song choice?

Only Fools Rush In

Tempting fate or defiant statement ?

bluebell34567 · 11/04/2022 13:12

interesting choice for her.
younger by 4years and not having specific job. why?

HardyBuckette · 11/04/2022 13:16

He is pretty young, but I do think part of the reason marrying at that age is less common these days outside of certain communities is because of money. There are some people who are in established couples at that age and would do it if it was more affordable, and if they did, it would be a less unusual thing.

MermaidEyes · 11/04/2022 13:17

Maybe the shoes were ones that gave her height but were wearable for hours? Isn't that why strippers wear them?

Strippers often have botox in their feet to combat the pain of wearing them

FlibbertyGiblets · 11/04/2022 13:26

Blimey at Vicky's new lips, ceeerrrikey.

LynetteScavo · 11/04/2022 13:45

I agree that it was all a bit of a style free zone.

It's very rare I don't like a wedding gown, but it was very meh. And I didn't like the wrinkly gloves at all.

And why didn't any of the Beckham boys have a shave? Either have some stubble like David or don't, but don't look like you've just rolled in after a mega weekend.

Having said that, I wish the newly weds many years of happy was together.

Blimey, that would take some plastic surgery.

dayswithaY · 11/04/2022 14:51

I did notice in one photo the younger Beckham boys clutching bottles of beer, I thought you had to be 21 to drink in the States, or is it ok if it's on private property?

Surprised Uncle Elton wasn't invited to up the A list quota and play at the reception.

I read that he was invited but couldn't make it due to touring. Maybe it was too tacky even for Elton.

Elton sent David Furnish along to the wedding as he was touring apparently.

Poor David. Grounds for divorce that.
