"Yeah I am obsessed with my wife" Brooklyn Beckham feels like a spare part at Halloween bash
When Brooklyn Beckham posed with Nicola Peltz and Damian Hurley, the internet couldn't help but notice something uncanny. Was he just third-wheeling at the couple's big Los Angeles Halloween night?
Halloween in LA always brings its share of star moments, but this year, Brooklyn Beckham found himself at the centre of attention for unexpected reasons. With Nicola Peltz and Damian Hurley both dressed in slick matching leather, Brooklyn's look stood out for all the wrong reasons—and social media wasted no time weighing in.
Matching duos and the odd one out
On 31 October, Nicola Peltz and Damian Hurley were the picture of coordination. Nicola wowed in a fitted leather crop top and trousers, channelling Cat Woman vibes, while Damian stepped into a plunging Michael Jackson-inspired catsuit. Standing with them, Brooklyn opted for a Superman costume, complete with unmistakable fake abs and Clark Kent-style glasses. The mismatch caught the eye of fans, some dubbing him "out of place" and even a "spare part" in comments online.
The friends' connection runs deep—Brooklyn and Damian have known each other since childhood, both sharing Sir Elton John as their godfather. Most recently, the trio appeared together in Venice at David Furnish's 64th birthday celebration.
Love letters and performative declarations
The Halloween post isn't the first time Brooklyn and Nicola's over-the-top romance shared the spotlight. For their seventh anniversary, Brooklyn posted a gushing message on Instagram, writing: "Yeah I am obsessed with my wife. Bring on the comments, I don't care. She's perfect xx." That wasn't all. In another declaration paired with red Chanel and lavish flowers, he added: "My beautiful Nicola, you mean absolutely everything to me. You're my whole world, my best friend, and the most important person in my life. I'm so lucky I get to love you and spend forever by your side. I love you more than words can ever explain."
Nicola replied with her own heartfelt message: "Happy anniversary my love, my best friend, my everything. I can't believe it's been 7 years by your side, I wouldn't wish for it any other way. i love you with my entire soul. i adore your love letters and morning coffees with our puppies please never change. i fall harder for you everyday."
While many followers swooned, others accused Brooklyn's posts of being "over performative".
Social media reacts: admiration and jibes
Online, reactions were split. Some fans admired the couple's "whole world" devotion, but cracks appeared in the comments. Observers joked about Brooklyn "third wheeling" and being the odd man out among the coordinated duo. The playful jabs about his out-of-place Superman costume only heightened the sense of awkwardness in the viral photo.
Despite the criticism, the group stuck together over several events—proving that for this circle of friends, public perception might matter less than private vibes. And let's be honest: who hasn't felt a bit out of place at a fancy dress party?
