Selena Gomez & Nicola Peltz: Feud or Just Busy Schedules?

Brooklyn Peltz Beckham, 26, and Nicola Peltz Beckham, 30, renewed their vows on August 2 during a ceremony held at her family home in Westchester County, New York

SELENA GOMEZ AND NICOLA PELTZ BECKHAM: THE FRIENDSHIP THAT'S HEATING UP - BUT NOT FOR ALL THE RIGHT REASONS

It's been two years since Selena Gomez and Nicola Peltz Beckham were inseparable, jetting off on luxury vacations together, getting matching tattoos, and even joking about being in a "throuple". But now, the once-close friends seem to be growing apart - and it's not just because of their busy schedules.

Selena, 33, was noticeably absent from Nicola and Brooklyn Beckham's recent vow renewal ceremony, sparking rumors of a feud between the singer and the couple. But insiders claim that Selena and Benny Blanco, her music producer beau, are still tight with Nicola and Brooklyn - they're just too busy to hang out.

Selena Gomez, 33, was noticeably absent from the vow renewal, as fans speculated the once-close trio have fallen out

"Selena and Benny have not had any falling out with Nicola or Brooklyn," a source exclusively told The Scholarly Note.com. "They are still friends, but their schedules and relationship commitments have gotten in the way of their once-close bond."

But what happened to those Instagram-perfect photos and videos that showcased their friendship? Remember when Selena posted a carousel of snaps from their Mexico vacation, captioning it: "Fine calls us a throuple #foreverplusone"? Those days seem to be behind them.

As we dug deeper into the history of their friendship, it's clear that things have been slowly unraveling since Nicola and Brooklyn tied the knot in April 2022. The couple was everywhere on Selena's social media account - but now, they're MIA.

Selena has formed an incredibly close bond with the couple over the years, as they cemented their closeness by joking they were in 'throuple' (pictured in 2023)

Nicola, 30, and Brooklyn, 26, seem to be preoccupied with their own drama. They've become increasingly estranged from his family, particularly after snubbing David Beckham's 50th birthday in May. But sources claim that Selena has been comforting Nicola through it all - by distracting her with wedding plans!

"Selena is always there for her friends if, and when they need anything," an insider revealed to The Scholarly Note.com. "She has been messaging Nicola and trying to keep her mind off the drama. She has been talking about her upcoming wedding and loves getting Nicola's advice."

But what's really going on behind closed doors? Insiders claim that Selena is too busy with work - from planning her Rare Beauty brand to filming Only Murders in the Building - to hang out with Nicola and Brooklyn. And it seems like Nicola's vow renewal ceremony was a last-minute affair, which might have contributed to the distance between them.

Nicola has called Selena her 'soul sister,' and the Rare Beauty founder became a frequent presence on Nicola's social media accounts

So, will Selena invite Nicola and Brooklyn to her wedding? Sources say they've received an invitation, but whether or not they'll attend is anyone's guess.

"Whether or not they go is unknown, but that is probably the next time they will see each other," a source revealed.

It's clear that these four friends have had their ups and downs - but one thing's for sure: their friendship has been heating up (or cooling down?) in more ways than one.

AND WHAT ABOUT THE BECKHAM FEUD?

As we mentioned earlier, Brooklyn and his family seem to be at odds with Nicola's family. Sources claim that the Beckhams are no longer following Nicola and Brooklyn on Instagram - a clear sign of tension between them.

But what sparked this feud? Insiders close to the situation reveal that it all started when Brooklyn snubbed David Beckham's 50th birthday in May. And now, it seems like he's also cut ties with his younger brothers Romeo and Cruz.

In January 2023, the trio went on vacation together to Los Cabos, Mexico, as they shared photos and videos from their luxury yacht

"Brooklyn has become increasingly estranged from his family," a source revealed to The Scholarly Note.com. "He's always been close to Nicola's family, but it looks like he's chosen them over his own."

And what about Selena? Is she caught in the middle of this Beckham drama? Sources claim that she's trying to keep Nicola's mind off things by planning her upcoming wedding - and getting her advice on all things matrimonial!

But for now, it seems like these four friends are taking a step back from each other. Will they ever be as close as they once were? Only time will tell.

During the trip, Nicola and Selena furthered their close friendship by getting matching tattoos on their forearms that spelled out 'angel'

FIVE TIMES SELENA AND NICOLA'S FRIENDSHIP HEATED UP

  1. Matching tattoos: In January 2023, Selena and Nicola got matching tattoos of the word "angel" written in script on their forearms.
  2. Luxury vacations: The duo jetted off to Los Cabos, Mexico, with Brooklyn for a vacation that would be Instagram-perfect.
  3. Girls' night sleepovers: Selena and Nicola would often post photos and videos from their slumber parties together - complete with champagne, pillow fights, and giggles galore.
  4. Thanksgiving celebrations: In November 2022, the trio celebrated Thanksgiving together, with Brooklyn even cooking up some fish and chips for an unconventional holiday meal.
  5. Joking about being in a 'throuple': Selena would often joke on social media that they were part of a "throuple" - but it seems like those days are behind them.
