Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola 'invited no-shows Harry and Meghan to wedding'
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were invited to Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz ’s wedding but didn’t show up, new court documents claim.
The royal couple are not thought to have known the bride and groom, but WhatsApp messages that have now been made public appear to show they were added to the guest list by Nicola’s mother Claudia.
The inside scoop on the showbiz wedding of last year has been unearthed as Nicola's father Nelson Peltz, 80, launched a lawsuit demanding his £132,000 deposit back from wedding planners Nicole Braghin and Arianna Grijalba.
Mr Peltz claimed he fired the pair weeks before his daughter's three day wedding extravaganza to Brooklyn over alleged 'mistakes'.
Ms Braghin and Ms Grijalba have since hit back calling Mr Peltz a 'bully billionaire and filed a counterclaim for breach of contract.

They are also suing bride Nicola, her mum Claudia and wedding designer Rishi Patel for damages.
Hundreds of messages about the £3 million nuptials, dubbed the ‘wedding of the year’, have been laid bare in a 118-page lawsuit obtained by the Daily Mail.
In one misspelled exchange with her daughter, Claudia asks: “Did Megan get an invite?” to which Nicola replies: “Who’s Megan?”
Claudia responds: “And Harry” suggesting she meant the Duke of Sussex and his wife, although this has not been confirmed.

Although the Florida nuptials looked like the perfect day, behind the scenes there were apparently riddled with problems from the guest list, food, music and flowers.
But all this was kept secret from Brooklyn’s mother, with the court filing stating: “Both Claudia and Nicola insisted that Victoria Beckham could not know about any internal mistakes regarding the ongoing planning of her son’s wedding.”
The Peltz family are suing their wedding planners for alleged ‘mistakes’ in the run up to the big day.
At one point Nicola’s billionaire father Nelson Peltz wanted to cancel the wedding and branded it a ‘s*** show’, the court papers claim.
But his wife Claudia, a former fashion model, is said to have begged him not to as it would ‘destroy’ Nicola’s career.

In the end the wedding went ahead with new wedding planners hired just weeks before the ceremony took place at the Peltz family’s Palm Beach mansion.

They claim they worked 17-hour days to try to cater to their client’s demands and have filed a counterclaim for breach of contract and ‘interference’ with a business deal.
Ms Braghin and Ms Grijalba are also suing bride Nicola, her mum Claudia and wedding designer Rishi Patel for £41,000 in damages, plus costs which could spiral into hundreds of thousands of pounds.
The pair claim guest lists were incomplete and decisions hadn’t been made on the flowers, cake, photographers and hair and make-up artists, but the bride was ‘too busy’ to speak to them on the phone.

She becomes annoyed that friend Lewis Hamilton is down as an RSVP when she knows he can’t attend.
“Lewis Hamilton did not RSVP. So explain why his names on the list please. We spoke to him. He can’t come so explain why you said he rsvpd yes,” a text from Nicola fumes.
When one of the wedding planners tries to offer an explanation, Nicola hits back: “That’s not true. He didn’t rsvp AT ALL... I’m tired of catching mistakes on this rsvp list honestly.”
Florida governor Ron DeSantis, a hardline Republican rival of Donald Trump who plans to run for US President in 2024, was removed from the guest list at Nicola’s request.
“Desantis must be OFF THE GUEST LIST. PLEASE CONFIRM!” Nicola wrote.

The wedding planners suggest a “slight colour variation so you can make out individual roses” but Nicola replies: “What do u mean."
Nicola was also unimpressed with the wedding planners' suggestion burgers from Wendy's fast food truck be called a 'Nicola and Brooklyn Combo'.
Suggested names of the couple-themed dishes included 'Bag It Like Beckham', which Nicla branded 'embarrassing'.
Although they received a text from Nicola saying ‘You’re killing it’ and thank you messages from Brooklyn, who they described as a ‘perfect gentleman’, they were fired the next day.
A third wedding planner, Michelle Ragos, took over the final weeks of planning the wedding – but Nicola’s father Nelson claims he was charged extra because of such late notice.
The Mirror has approached the Peltz family for comment.
