Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz’s absence at Selena Gomez’s wedding last month seemed to confirm that the pair are no longer in the singer’s inner circle.
And now there has been yet another final nail in the coffin after the couple failed to congratulate the newly leaving the actress feeling ‘betrayed’, according to The Sun.
Selena and her now husband Benny Blanco tied the knot in Santa Barbara California with a host of celebrity guests including Taylor Swift, Paris Hilton and Ed Sheeran attending.
Now the publication has reported that as well as failing to attend the big day, Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, haven’t been in touch to offer their congratulations.
Insiders reportedly said: ‘Selena isn’t expecting anything at all from Nicola and Brooklyn anymore, there is a feeling of something broken and the fact that they didn’t even send a message to congratulate her and Benny for their wedding is something that really did hurt her.
‘The fact that Nicola and Brooklyn didn’t show any effort or even a bit of love to her and her husband in that wonderful time was very, very disappointing.

‘Selena is someone that really is 100% when she is in a friendship, and she feels like she’s been betrayed.’
However a source told The Daily Mail: ‘There’s no drama. Selena’s wedding was an intimate, private celebration with her inner circle.
Relationships evolve, and while she and Nicola aren’t as close these days, there’s nothing but well wishes.’
The Daily Mail have contacted Selena and Brooklyn and Nicola’s representatives for comment.
Following Brooklyn and Nicola’s absence at the wedding a source told the Daily Mail that their absence was unavoidable.
They told Daily Mail: ‘Nicola is in strict preparation for a new role, and was unavailable. She and Brooklyn wish Selena and Benny all the best.’
Selena, Nicola and Brooklyn formed an incredibly close bond over the past few years, with the singer cementing their closeness when she joked they were in ‘throuple’ back in 2023.
However their frequent snaps seemed to dissipate as Selena began dating music producer Benny two years ago.
Insiders reportedly said: ‘ ‘Selena is someone that really is 100% when she is in a friendship, and she feels like she’s been betrayed’

A report in The Sun over the summer suggested the Selena and Benny had grown tired of ‘diva’ Nicola, with this seemingly ringing true when the former Disney star was not in attendance at Nicola and Brooklyn’s vow renewal in August.
However, at the time an insider refuted this point.
‘Selena and Benny have not had any falling out with Nicola or Brooklyn,’ the insider told the Daily Mail.
‘They are still friends. When it comes to their vow renewal, [Selena] can celebrate them privately. She feels she doesn’t have to legitimize her friendships with anyone through an online post or comment.’
But it was a vastly different story nearly three years ago.
Selena’s social media account was once filled with photos and videos showcasing her close relationship with the couple, from girls’ night sleepovers, to luxury vacations and gushing birthday tributes.
Yet her last post featuring Nicola was shared in a photo dump that December, while Nicola’s most recent post with Selena was taken at Benny’s birthday party in March 2024.
What’s more, Nicola and Brooklyn have gone from liking nearly every one of Selena’s Instagram posts to becoming silent followers of the Rare Beauty founder – even as they each marked major milestones in their lives.
Following the passing of her 95-year-old grandmother – nicknamed ‘Naunni’ – in 2024, Nicola paid tribute to her beloved family member on the one-year anniversary of her death in May.
While Selena had initially liked Nicola’s Instagram post announcing her grandmother’s death last year, the singer was nowhere to be found in the likes or the comments of Nicola’s most recent tribute post.
Selena also failed to show some love to the couple online in April, when they marked their third wedding anniversary with a sweet Instagram post.
But it’s not just Selena who’s been the silent one.
As for Nicola and Brooklyn, they remained mum amid the social media rollout of Selena’s album with Benny last March, as well as the five-year anniversary of her mental health charity, the Rare Impact Fund.

To outsiders, it would seem as if the once-close ‘throuple’ have fallen out of love with each other.
But insiders insisted that Selena, Nicola and Brooklyn’s social media activities should be taken with a pinch of salt, as not everything posted online is reflective of their everyday lives.
The actress first struck up a friendship with Nicola and Brooklyn when they met at the Academy Museum Gala in October 2022.
They formed an instant connection, and one month later they were already celebrating Thanksgiving together.
Also at the Thanksgiving festivities was Nicola’s brother Bradley Peltz, who was once rumored to be dating Selena, even furthering her bond with Nicola.
The trio then rang in the new year together when they went on vacation in Los Cabos, Mexico, in January 2023.
They each shared a slew of photos taken on their luxury yacht, and Selena and Nicola took their friendship one step further by getting matching tattoos of the word ‘angel’ written in script on their forearms.
Selena went on to post a carousel of photos from their Mexico vacation to her Instagram, as one of the snaps showed the actress snuggling with the married couple and embracing each other in a group hug.
She joked in the caption: ‘Fine calls us a throuple #foreverplusone’.
In an interview with Cosmopolitan UK that March, Nicola shed light on her friendship with Selena by describing her as her ‘soul sister’ with a ‘heart of gold.’
‘She’s truly one of the most amazing people I’ve ever met in my whole life. The kindest person ever. I feel like I’ve known her forever,’ she said.
