The Peltz family, already facing whispers of family drama surrounding Nicola Peltz Beckham and Brooklyn Beckham, is now embroiled in a new legal battle. Their former housekeeper, Mileydis Morejon, is suing Nelson and Claudia Peltz for $75,000, alleging multiple attacks by their pit bull, Houdini, at their $100 million Florida mansion. Morejon claims the dog’s attacks left her with significant injuries, including disfigurement, and resulted in considerable medical bills and lost wages. The lawsuit, filed in December 2024, accuses the Peltzes of negligence due to the dog’s allegedly vicious nature and lack of proper training.
The Peltzes, however, deny any negligence. In a response filed in May 2025, they contend that Morejon did not suffer any dog bites and that she should not receive compensation. They further argue that Morejon, as the housekeeper, regularly interacted with Houdini and should have been aware of and adapted to the dog’s behavior. This counters Morejon’s claim that the dog’s aggressive behavior was known or should have been known to the Peltzes.
The timing of this lawsuit adds another layer of complexity to the already strained relationship between Nicola and Brooklyn and their respective families. The couple notably skipped David Beckham’s recent 50th birthday celebration, fueling speculation about ongoing family tensions. While the details of the Beckham-Peltz family dynamics remain largely private, this lawsuit casts a further shadow over their public image.
Representatives for the Peltz family have been contacted for comment. The outcome of this lawsuit will undoubtedly be watched closely, not only for its legal implications but also for its potential impact on the already complex web of relationships within these high-profile families.
