Brooklyn Beckham recalls the fatherly advice David offered during his wedding speech: ‘The most important thing is to make each other happy’
Brooklyn Beckham has shed light on the fatherly advice he received from David during his wedding speech.
The Beckham’s eldest son, 23, wed actress Nicola Peltz, 27, at her £76million sprawling family estate in a £3million wedding ceremony in April.
And to retired footballer David’s own admission, his speech was longer than the others and full of heartfelt remarks, but it was his advice on how to be a good husband that struck a chord with Brooklyn.

Speaking to British Vogue, the newlywed recalled: ‘He said, “The most important thing is to make each other happy. And treat your Mrs like gold.'”
David’s 1999 wedding to Spice Girl and fashion designer Victoria did not go unmentioned either, with the Inter Miami CF president asking for his son’s forgiveness for dressing him in a miniature cowboy hat during their day.
‘I’m sure we still have that hat somewhere,’ Brooklyn teased.
Posh and Becks’ wasn’t, however, the wedding that inspired the couple’s own, despite Nicola noting the day’s ‘iconic’ pictures.

‘Their wedding was incredible and those pictures are iconic, but the wedding we were most inspired by was Iman and David Bowie,’ the Bates Motel actress admitted.
Brooklyn and Nicola enjoyed a whirlwind romance after first going public with their budding relationship in November 2019 when pictures emerged of them hugging – before getting engaged in July 2020, just eight months later.
While their relationship officially began in 2019, they actually first met in 2017, with Brooklyn revealing during an Instagram Q&A with followers that they were originally introduced at the Coachella music festival in California – where Nicola admitted they didn’t get on at first.

Of why they settled on 9 April as opposed to a summer wedding in 2021, Nicola said: ‘When the world was in lockdown, we went through different variations of what a wedding would look like. We weren’t sure if we should do a small one earlier and then a big party.
‘Eventually we decided we wanted the big wedding as soon as it was possible to do it safely. And we’re so happy we did. It was amazing to be in the presence of so many people we love again.’
Brooklyn added: ‘We didn’t realise how much we missed that.’
