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

@SpinningTheSeedsOfLove

Isn't the question really why in the world would the 27 year old enormously wealthy actor and heiress Nicola Peltz want anything to do with the Beckhams?
Literally this!

Yes it is very young for him as she is a few years older. Yes his parents got married young but David then went on to have many affairs and publicly humiliated Victoria and she stayed with him but rarely smiled in public since. Her dad is absolutely loaded and know the Beckham's are rich but this man is a mega millionaire or more and the wedding is at her dad's mansion I think in Florida that has 47 bedrooms ha!! Their lives are so far removed from ours so hope it works out for him but it is far too young in this day and age.

He sounds like he's really struggling to find his own identity and way in the world. Not surprising, his parents would be a hard act to follow.

47 bedrooms Shock

To the person who said why would she want to have anything to do with Brooklyn, maybe he is a very nice young man who treats her really well. That maybe they are in love..remember what love felt like at 23 with no stresses and it was all consuming....

BOOTS52 · 05/04/2022 22:02

That mansion must have an army of cleaners and housekeepers etc..Be great for hide and seek though or if the other half were annoying could lose them for days !!

He was in the news recently for having HER EYES TATTOOED ON THE BACK OF HIS NECK along with a creepy love note about how she’d always ‘be there for him’ blah blah.

That’s not true love. If it were, you wouldn’t feel the need to court attention to prove it, would you?

ChiefWiggumsBoy · 05/04/2022 22:12

They got engaged in July last year apparently, after 6 months of dating.

Tell me Brooklyn what is it you love about multimillionaireess Ms Peltz 🤔

DarleneSnell · 05/04/2022 22:21

I occasionally look at his Insta. He comes over nice enough but just incredibly immature, even for 23. Just had a quick look and the caption of the pic from March 8th could have been written by a 14 year old. Honestly can't see what his richer, older and more attractive fiancée is drawn to, but I guess that's not my problem!

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 05/04/2022 22:25

Why does everyone think 23 is too young to get married? He is a grown man.

EachandEveryone · 05/04/2022 22:26

I wonder if he will be coverting?

LoveSpringDaffs · 05/04/2022 22:26

@embolass

Who cares? There are far more worrying issues to be concerned about than these two overindulged nobodies 🙄
Yeah there is!

This frivolous shit about nobodies takes our minds off it & no one needs people like you bringing every thread back to the shit that's going on.

Behave yourself!

DarleneSnell · 05/04/2022 22:27

Just been looking properly, and I think I was being generous saying 14! Some of the Nicola IG captions remind me of the V-day cards my 6 year old just gave me.
As an aside I don't think 23 is too young to get married, I just think he seems so much younger.

Iamthewombat · 05/04/2022 22:28

Agreed. The world needs more nobodies doing stupid things to entertain us. Dance, monkeys, dance!

underneaththeash · 05/04/2022 22:28

She’ll be a very nice first wife….

LightDrizzle · 05/04/2022 22:31

That photo in Kenya!!!???
Is that really from his book or is it a spoof?

BurgerKingAddict · 05/04/2022 22:33

It’s real

Totally real, god bless him!
Iamthewombat · 05/04/2022 22:35

Whenever you see ol’ Brooklyn and his intended posing together it always looks really staged. Like they have hired acting coaches to put them through their paces and show them how to stand and sit to look loving. It’s hilarious.

Justfivemoreminutesplease · 05/04/2022 22:37

Bizarrely I was thinking just this (he’s getting married soon / I remember when he was born) whilst I was cleaning my teeth just now.
I’m sure the Beckhams are delighted that he’s married so well - at least by marrying someone with gazillions more they won’t be worried about him only finding a wife that wants their cash Grin

Sinuhe · 05/04/2022 22:40

They are just having a big party, what else can they do with all that money?
And the best parties are always the ones where big egos can take centre stage... so a wedding is perfect!

merryhouse · 05/04/2022 22:41

Indeed, we have the circuses well-sorted. Pity the bread seems to be getting scarcer.

I was 23 when I got married. We'll be on 30 years in July.
