The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have declined an invitation to Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz’s wedding, according to reports.

The groom’s parents David, 46, and Victoria Beckham, 47, are said to have written to Prince William, 39, and Duchess Kate, 40, to invite them to the extravagant €3.5 million wedding at the Palm Beach, Florida.

The royal couple, who had the Beckhams as special guests at their wedding in 2011, politely declined the invitation, writes Dailymail.

A source close to the Beckham couple told Daily Mirror: “David and Victoria wrote to William and Kate inviting them and the family to their son’s wedding, and William replied wishing them great joy, but they could not attend.”

David and Victoria also attended the wedding of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, respectively Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in 2018, prompting speculation that the latter may also be invited to the Brooklyn wedding.

Fashion designer Victoria Beckham is thought to be close friends with Meghan after moving permanently with Harry to the US. The Duchess of Sussex is often photographed wearing Victoria’s designs.

In February 2020, former professional footballer David Beckham spoke of how he was ‘proud’ of his ‘wonderful’ friend Prince Harry following his marriage to Meghan and the birth of their son Archie.

But the same source dismissed the claims, suggesting that David’s strong ‘bond’ with Prince William and Kate meant they were the only choice.

“David’s relationship and history goes back to William and Kate and they have a very strong relationship and they were their choice as wedding guests,” the source continued.

“It was always about them, it was never about Meghan and Harry,” the same source added.
