Nicola Peltz’s ex-boyfriend's sister has made her thoughts clear on the Beckham family feud. Before meeting Brooklyn, the actress, 31, previously dated Anwar Hadid - who is the younger brother of Gigi and Bella.
Now, his older half-sister Alana Hadid, 40, has weighed in on the claims shared in the explosive statement dropped by the eldest son of David, 50, and Victoria, 51, earlier this week. Brooklyn, 26, ended his Instagram post with the request: "All we want is privacy."
The photographer Eli Rezkallah posted: "Ending an eight paragraph rant about his family's dirty laundry with 'all we want is privacy' is all I need to know." To which Alana, a creative director and fashion designer, replied: "Right and that girl doesn't want privacy she's been trying to be famous for a decade."
Nicola and Anwar, now 26, dated from 2016 to 2018 - parting ways one year before she met Brooklyn. At the time, she was close to his sisters, Gigi and Bella, who also share Mohamed Hadid and his second wife Yolanda Hadid as parents.

To have that around is amazing." Alana and her sister Marielle, 45, are the daughters of Mohamed and his first wife Mary Butler.
