Becky Hill Brands Jack Whitehall a ‘Privately Educated Nepo Baby’ After BRIT Awards Joke


Becky Hill dubbed Jack Whitehall a 'privately educated nepo baby' in message pointing out privileged backgrounds of some attendees at 2025 BRIT Awards.

At the ceremony earlier this month, host Whitehall called the singer “Wetherspoons Whitney” – referring to the chain of affordable British pubs – on the assumption that she was less well-off because of her Midlands accent. It was highlighted that Charli XCX – who scooped five awards that night – attended the £38,319-a-year ($50,206) Bishop’s Stortford College, while producer of the year winner A.G. Cook went to the £27,747-a-year King Alfred’s School ($37,472). Hill, meanwhile, is scheduled to perform at the Formula 1 British Grand Prix at the iconic Silverstone circuit in Northamptonshire in July.
