Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz, who have both attended previous Met 'Gala"s, were absent from the October 2026 Met Gala because of the allegations made against Brooklyn by Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of American Vogue, for the "constant fighting" he has had with the rest of his celebrity relatives. However, although Brooklyn did not attend the Gala, his younger brother Romeo Beckham made it to the event for the first time after receiving an invitation from Burberry.
As per various sources, the longstanding friendship of Anna Wintour with the Beckhams is likely to play a role in selecting the invitees. As per reports, Anna has been supporting David and Victoria for many years and used to attend their fashion shows as well. The source further mentioned that the speculations regarding the invitee of Brooklyn and Nicola last year were unfounded.
Together, Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz had been to the Met Gala in the years 2021, 2022, and 2023. Also, Brooklyn had gone alone in 2024. But this year’s gala was their first significant absence from the annual event.
However, the tension in the family allegedly started to heighten last May after Brooklyn and Nicola failed to attend the 50th birthday party of David Beckham. The rumour that there was a problem between the family members continued to spread for several months until it reached its peak in January, when reports surfaced that Brooklyn issued a six-page rant against his parents.
Since then, however, the couple have been quite silent publicly. David and Victoria continue to publicly show that they are trying to resolve their differences with their first-born child, Brooklyn. Recently, while being interviewed by Emma Grede for an episode of Grede's Aspire podcast, Victoria discussed parenting in public.
During her talk, she explained how she felt it was essential for her children to have her support throughout their lives and to encourage their children to determine who they should be in life without putting any pressure on them. Many people regarded this as a response to earlier comments made by Brooklyn.
