Despite an ongoing and very public family feud, Nicola Peltz appears to be taking more than a little inspiration from her mother-in-law Victoria Beckham — at least when it comes to fashion.
The 31-year-old actress was spotted heading to a Pilates session in Los Angeles on Wednesday, turning heads in skin-tight black workout gear that looked strikingly similar to Victoria’s signature off-duty style. From the sleek silhouette to her long brunette hair, the resemblance was hard to ignore — a surprising twist given the tension between the two women.
Adding to the déjà vu moment, Nicola completed her look with a £1,430 Louis Vuitton Neverfull tote — a luxury staple long associated with Victoria’s own wardrobe.
But while her outfit sparked comparisons, it was Nicola’s noticeably slimmer figure that truly caught attention.
The actress has recently raised concerns among fans after dropping to under 100 pounds (around 45kg), following an intense four-month transformation for her upcoming film Prima. Determined to fully embody her ballerina character Margo, Nicola committed to a gruelling training schedule and strict diet.
Her dramatic weight loss quickly fuelled speculation online, with some questioning whether it was linked to weight-loss injections or even stress from the ongoing Beckham family rift. However, insiders insist the transformation was entirely her own choice — and not the result of any medical shortcuts.
Years before landing the physically demanding role, Nicola had already revealed her surprisingly indulgent eating habits. Speaking in a past interview, she joked that her diet made her sound like a child, admitting: “I feel like the way I am describing my diet is that I actually sound like a 10-year-old!”
She confessed to having a major sweet tooth, saying she can never turn down dessert and often opts for pancakes or waffles during the day. She also admitted: “I definitely have a bad sweet tooth, I can never say no to a dessert. I also can’t have that much dairy but I eat it anyway because I can’t help myself.”
Despite this, Nicola does try to balance things out with healthier options — often preparing a simple low-carb salad with husband Brooklyn Beckham. The couple are said to be obsessed with the dish, made from arugula, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, candied nuts and parmesan.
Still, when it comes to dinner, Nicola is happy to leave the cooking to Brooklyn. She openly admitted: “Brooklyn always does the cooking, I am a terrible cook. The only thing that I can do is make that salad and I feel very happy about that.”
Meanwhile, Victoria Beckham’s famously disciplined lifestyle offers a stark contrast.
The former Spice Girl has long been known for her strict approach to diet and fitness — something even her husband David once highlighted when he said she mainly eats grilled fish and vegetables. Addressing the comment, Victoria insisted her routine is far more balanced than it sounds.
She explained: “I eat lots of healthy fat: fish, avocado, nuts, that sort of thing. I do drink alcohol, unless I have a reason not to.”
Victoria also revealed her commitment to detoxing, often cutting out alcohol for months at a time. Describing her mindset, she said: “I’m quite extreme in anything I do, whether it’s eating or working out or drinking or not drinking.”
Reflecting on body image, she added that her focus is not on size but self-acceptance, explaining that true balance comes with age and understanding what works for your own body.
And yet, despite their differences — and their ongoing feud — Nicola’s latest appearance suggests that when it comes to style, Victoria’s influence might still be impossible to ignore.
