The post comes after Victoria shared a romantic sunset snap of Brooklyn and his fiancée Nicola Peltz, 25, on Instagram on Tuesday evening. 

The former Spice Girl posted the gorgeous shot of her photographer son gently kissing heiress Nicola’s cheek, branding them ‘the sweetest couple’. 

It comes as Nicola faces further speculation that she and Brooklyn have secretly tied the knot, following a friend’s telling comment on social media.

The actress and the aspiring photographer set tongues wagging over the weekend when Nicola posted a cryptic snap of her husband-to-be wearing a gold band on his ring finger.  

And a friend of the Transformers star has now sent the rumour mill into overdrive, when commenting underneath her latest photo shared on Brooklyn’s Instagram account on Sunday.  

Brooklyn took to the image-sharing platform to upload a snap of his fiancée posing in a black nightie.

And while he kept his caption simple, adding just a love heart-eyed emoji, his friend Leon ‘Starino’ Anderson raised eyebrows as he referred to her as ‘Mrs Beckham’.

Nicola sparked speculation on whether she and Brooklyn have already exchanged nuptials, when she shared a cryptic snap of a gold ring on his finger.
