Haters slam Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz for $3.5M wedding amid Ukraine war

One user wrote, 'Ukraine war and one of the worst economic crises but wait Brooklyn Beckham is getting married'

Netizens are criticizing the families of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz for spending $3.5 million on the couple's lavish wedding that took place in Palm Beach, Florida. Brooklyn, 23, and Nicola, 27, got married at Peltz's $103 million family estate on Saturday, April 9, two years after they were engaged in July 2020.

Shortly after news emerged that the star-studded wedding cost nearly $4 million, many social media users took to Twitter to express their disbelief while others suggested how the money could have been spent better by helping those in need. Most users cited the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine and the escalating cost of living as the world recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Commenting on the wedding cost, one person suggested that Brooklyn's dad David Beckham should have donated the money like fellow footballer Marcus Rashford. The tweet read: "Stupid amounts of money spent on his wedding!! David Beckham should take a lead out of Rashford's book by helping people who could live a better life. Beckham is from the East End and should know better. Yes it's his son's wedding but 3million on it come on!!! That's a joke." Another user commented, "Ukraine war and one of the worst economic crisis but wait Brooklyn Beckham is getting married."

Someone else wrote, "Brooklyn Beckham just wedded Nicola Peltz and the whole amount for the wedding was about $3.5million! Is it difficult to have a simple wedding blessed by God surrounded by family and close friends and probably the rest of the money goes to charity or Ukraine??? Aiiiii." Another sarcastically asked, "Do Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz live on the same planet as Ukraine?." One user added, "Brooklyn and Nicola wedding 3 million what a joke just to say i do no wonder they signed pre nup could you imagine the cost of party for the divorce."

However, not everyone shared the same opinion. One person wrote, "They are distributing some of their wealth among marquee companies, caterers, hospitality staff, entertainers, jewellers, furniture hire etc etc. All of those that have been some of the hardest hit over 2 years." A second wrote, "She’s a billionaires daughter, £3m is modesty for a Beckham and a Peltz." Several others agreed that Beckham and Peltz's families were free to spend their money however they wished and that others had no right to comment about it.
