- As family tributes went, it could not be more gushing. Speaking about one of her in-laws, Nicola Peltz paid homage to a ‘beautiful chosen sister’ and vowed to look after her ‘for the rest of my life’.
- However, these touching sentiments were not directed to her mother-in-law Victoria or Harper Beckham, who turned 14 this week, even though Nicola previously referred to the teenager as her ‘little sister’.
- Instead, these were the words Nicola used to describe her brother Will’s girlfriend Kenya Jones, daughter of the late Quincy, in an extremely heartfelt post after the late producer’s death in November 2024.
- It was particularly telling, given that relations with Beckham clan have been so frosty of late, amid a family feud that saw Nicola and Brooklyn skip his father David’s 50th birthday celebrations in May.
- The couple did post a happy birthday message on Instagram to Brooklyn’s little sister Harper this week, after furious speculation over whether the couple would publicly acknowledge her big day at all.
- But then Cruz and Romeo unfollowed Brooklyn and Nicola hours later for reasons unknown.
- Yet despite the issues with her husband’s family, it appears that Nicola’s relationship with her in-laws on the Peltz side could not be warmer – with a source close to the couple saying that Nicola is extremely close to her siblings and their partners. In fact, she looks on them as her best friends and support system.
- The actress, 30, is the daughter of billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz, 83, and his model wife Claudia Heffner Peltz, 70.
- As well as Nicola, they share eight children together: Matthew, 40, Will, 39, Brad, 35, Diesel, 27, twins Zachary and Gregory, 22, and daughter Brittany, 31.
- With so many boys in the family, it means a lot of potential sisters-in-law by Nicola’s side in the future.
- As well as Will’s new fiancee Kenya, other members of the family include Zach’s long-term girlfriend Aislinn and Matthew’s wife Hallie Dunn, who he wed in 2018.
- Even when relationships break down, it’s not a barrier to friendship with Nicola.
- One of her closest friends is singer Selena Gomez, who was previously linked to her brother Brad.
- Taking to Instagram this week, Nicola announced her brother Will had asked his girlfriend Kenya to marry him.
- Posing for a photo Kenya showed off her diamond ring as she shared a kiss with her husband-to-be in front of the sea.
- It read: ‘Just engaged. My whole heart for my whole life,’ with Nicola adding: ‘Best news ever!’
- It’s not the first time Nicola has publicly showed her love for her future sister-in-law Kenya and they’ve often appeared at star-studded events together.
- The pair attended The Daily Front Row Fashion Los Angeles Awards in 2016 together and went to Wendy’s summer party with Brooklyn and Will in 2022.
- Nicola paid emotional tribute to Kenya’s father Quincy last year after he died age 91.
- The actress said her ‘heart is shattered’ in the emotional statement and promised to look after his daughter for the ‘rest of my life.’
- Nicola’s brother Will has been dating Quincy’s daughter – who he shares with German actress Nastassja Kinski – since 2011.
- Sharing a series of photos to Instagram, she wrapped her arms around the musician while her husband Brooklyn stood beside them.
- She wrote: ‘Quincy, my heart is shattered I can’t comprehend saying goodbye to you so I won’t, I will say see you later.’
- Nicola continued: ‘You were truly a gift from God. The legacy you have left here on earth is not only your musical genius that has touched the hearts of millions of people but the most beautiful children that you raised – the Jones family, my family – I am so beyond grateful to know them.
- ‘Quincy I can’t believe I got lucky enough in this life to grow up knowing your love, wisdom, laughter and light.
- ‘The twinkle in your eye perfectly matched your smile and lit up this world. Your humour was unmatched and you made me laugh more than anything, I miss laughing with you.
- ‘I love you so much q I will miss you every single day and everyday I will be reminded of your beauty through your unbelievable children.
- ‘I promise to look out for Kenya for the rest of my life. She is my chosen sister and has your magic running through her. Love always your pita.’
- Zach and girlfriend Aislinn
- Elsewhere, Nicola remains close with her youngest brother Zach’s girlfriend and is in full support of their relationship.
- Zach and his girlfriend Aislinn flaunt their relationship on Instagram, retrospectively sharing PDA-filled snaps – which Nicola always likes and comments on.
- Like Nicola, Brooklyn is fond of Zach and Aislinn as the four have previously spent time together in fun-filled images.
