Nicola Peltz receives a $1 million a month allowance from her billonaire father Nelson, it’s been reported.
The staggering allowance is in stark contrast to the financial support Nicola’s husband Brooklyn Beckham is thought to receive from his parents David and Victoria.
While his name may not be as well known in pop culture as the Beckhams, Nelson Peltz’s wealth eclipses that of his co-parents-in-law, with the businessman boasting a stunning net worth of $1.6billion, in comparison to the Beckhams’ $680million.
Marina Hyde speaking on The Rest Is Entertainment podcast says ‘from what I hear I think the Beckhams give Brooklyn a lot of money but not insane money and they have this dream to some degree that he will stand on his own two feet and become independent.’
‘Maybe Nelson Peltz would deny this but I hear that he said to them that “I give my daughter a million dollar a month allowance”.
‘The one thing they [the Beckhams] didn’t their children would be doing would be the ones signing the prenuptial, they thought it would be the other way round.’

Reports last year claimed that David and Victoria fear their son is ‘trapped’ by the couple’s purported pre-nup as well as his living situation in LA.
The Beckhams’ eldest son has been living at a £11million Hollywood mansion with his wife Nicola for over a year but it has been reported that she is the primary owner of the home.
A source told The Sun in June 2025 that the Peltz family feels the Beckhams have not been providing amply for their son, saying: ‘Money, so the saying goes, is the root of all evil. Certainly, in the case of the Beckhams vs Peltzes, it’s proven… tricksy.
‘David and Victoria are two working-class kids done good. When it came to buying this house, of course they weren’t just going to hand their son millions of pounds – what sort of message does that send?’
When it came to the joining of the two families, Nelson wasted no time splashing $3.5million on his daughter’s wedding in 2022, showing he’d truly welcomed Brooklyn, 26, into the family fold.
Nelson and his brother Robert took over their father’s frozen-food distribution company which they grew rapidly over the coming years.
He grew his wealth further in the 1980s by acquiring manufacturing firm Triangle Industries and building it into the largest packaging company in the world before selling it in 1988, a deal which reportedly netted him hundreds of millions.
While Nelson could have easily retired with his already astronomical wealth, he instead pivoted to ‘activist investing’: buying significant stakes in underperforming companies and pushing for changes such as cost cuts, restructurings, asset sales, or management shake-ups.

Nelson went on to build a family dynasty as the father of 10 children. He had two children with his first wife Cynthia Abrams who he married in 1964 and divorced in 1981.
The businessman went on to marry former model Claudia in 1985 and had eight children with her – Matthew, 40, a businessman, Brad, 32, a former ice hockey player; Brittany, who is a children’s clothes designer; Darren (known as Diesel), 27, a tech entrepreneur; twins Zachary and Gregory, 18 – and Nicola.
Nicola, who started acting in 2006, has had a handful of minor roles in the likes of The Last Airbender and Transformers.
Last year she made her writing and directorial debut as well as her first leading role in her movie Lola whilst she has recently been promoting her role in the 2026 thriller Pretty Ugly.
