One follower also questioned Nicola’s matching outfit with Damian, asking, “Why is she wearing a matching costume with some other guy?”Another person suggested that “in this situation, a Batman suit would have suited Brooklyn better.”However, the comments were about how the photograph looked, and there was no indication of any disagreement between the three friends.Brooklyn and Damian have known each other since childhood.
