Nicola Peltz Flaunts Flat Abs After Brooklyn Beckham Called Body-Shamers ‘Disgraceful’
Nicola Peltz isn’t letting critics keep her down, and it seems Brooklyn Beckham is helping her feel more confident. The Actor and model showed off her toned stomach following a spa appointment a few months after Brooklyn lambasted body-shamers on the same platform. While she is still getting hate comments, fans are also flooding in to support her.
The flaunt and the defense
Brooklyn Beckham took to Instagram back in August to share a cookiactorng video, but one online troll used the comments section to take a shot at his wife, claiming she looked sickly and needed to eat. Brooklyn didn’t take the comment lying down. He fired back, insisting that the critic should never talk about his wife, before he went on to say people “should never comment on a woman’s body.” He called the behavior “disgraceful.”
Perhaps buoyed by Brooklyn’s defense, Nicola took to Instagram this week to share photos of her slim figure after a spa treatment. In the photos, she wore purple scrubs with her top lifted up to show off her abs and carried an oversized Chanel bag. The fun post was captioned “hyperbaric chic post facial.”
Unfortunately for Nicola, Brooklyn’s defense didn’t save her from all the critics. Her comments section quickly filled with snarky remarks. Some users claimed she didn’t look healthy; one compared her to a skeleton. Another questioned what showing her stomach had to do with a facial. Plenty of followers pushed back, telling critics that if they didn’t like her posts, they could simply unfollow. Nicola weighed in herself, replying to a supporter, “Thank you, some people are actually so mean.”
A whirlwind romance
Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz are not strangers to criticism. They are both seasoned veterans of the world of public opinion, and critics have only grown more vocal since they went public with their relationship. They started dating in October 2019 and made their relationship Instagram official on January 2, 2020, with a steamy mirror selfie. Things moved fast from there. The couple got engaged in July 2020 and tied the knot on April 9, 2022, in a lavish ceremony at the Peltz family’s estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
Despite critical reviews of their romance, they frequently share loved-up photos on social media, and Brooklyn has a back tattoo of a note Nicola wrote him before their wedding. Brooklyn has made it clear he sees Nicola as his biggest ally, especially as tensions with his own family have played out in public.
Where the Beckham rift stands
Those tensions came to a head in January, when Brooklyn posted a lengthy statement accusing his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, of trying to sabotage his marriage and control his public image. “I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he wrote. Before that, he had blocked his parents and siblings on social media and skipped his father’s 50th birthday celebrations.
Headlines through the summer made it pretty clear that Brooklyn and Nicola had no interest in reconnecting with the Beckhams, though the Beckhams insisted they love their son and want to be a part of his life. They might be taking steps to make that happen. This week, The Sun reported that Victoria is working to transfer the trademark rights to Brooklyn’s name to him after the initial trademark expires in December. Neither the Beckhams nor Brooklyn has commented on that, though.
