Wedding DJ Backs Brooklyn Beckham’s Account of Awkward First-Dance Moment

David and Victoria Beckham have not issued a detailed rebuttal.

Overview

  • DJ Fat Tony told ITV’s This Morning that Marc Anthony called Victoria Beckham to the stage during the planned first-dance slot, describing the scene as poorly timed and “really awkward.”
  • He said Anthony instructed Brooklyn to put his hands on his mother’s hips, characterizing it as a Latin custom, and recalled Nicola Peltz leaving the room in tears while Brooklyn looked “devastated.”
  • Brooklyn’s January 19 statement alleges years of parental narrative control, an eleventh-hour cancellation of Nicola’s planned Victoria Beckham gown, pressure to sign away rights to his name, and a refusal to reconcile.
  • Some sources close to Victoria contest the “inappropriate” description, saying guests viewed the dance as a spontaneous, sweet gesture initiated by Marc Anthony rather than a planned disruption.
  • In public signals rather than a formal response, David and Victoria commented on a nostalgic Instagram post about “great memories,” Victoria praised Romeo and Cruz on Instagram Stories, and David spoke generally about social media and children making mistakes on CNBC.
