Rumours of a rift between Nicola Peltz and Victoria Beckham have been swirling for months and now the actress has spoken out about the claims.

"I mean, maybe they picked up on something? And now they're labelling it feud," she admitted, alluding to a strain in her relationship with Victoria.
Despite refuting claims of bad blood, she did speak about tensions within the family as she and Brooklyn prepared for their star-studded wedding last spring, which was was highly-publicised.
"I think it all started – and I've said this before – because I didn't end up wearing Victoria's wedding dress," Nicola explained.
The billionaire heiress put the rumours to rest and affirmed that she would have loved to wear a bridal gown designed by Victoria, who has carved out quite the fashion career since her pop stardom days.
"The real truth is, I really, really wanted to wear it and I thought it was so beautiful that Brooklyn's mom got to make that for me! And I was really excited to wear it! And I didn't end up wearing it."
She continued: "It makes me sad when I read things that people say I was never planning on wearing it. That's just not true."
On Brooklyn and Nicola's big day – a wedding that's alleged to have cost £2.3million – the 27-year-old donned a Valentino couture dress instead of her mother-in-law's design, sparking the constant claims of a clash between the two ladies.
Further weight was added to the media frenzy when Nicola did not include a photo with her new husband's mum in any wedding day posts on Instagram.
Theories of a 'frosty' relationship between Victoria and her daughter-in-law reignited in September when it was alleged that she 'stole' the Spice Girls' wedding song her own first dance.
However, in the interview, Nicola vehemently denied that the Brooklyn-Peltz family were at odds.
