The long-simmering tensions within the Beckham family have once again come into focus, this time through the words of someone who witnessed the drama unfold firsthand. Days after Brooklyn Beckham publicly spoke about his strained relationship with parents David and Victoria Beckham, the DJ who performed at his wedding has shared his version of events surrounding a controversial moment on the dance floor.
What actually happened during the son and mother's 'awkward' dance?
Brooklyn recently opened up about the rift in a lengthy Instagram post, hinting at unresolved issues linked to his April 2022 wedding to actor Nicola Peltz. While he did not go into explicit detail about every incident, one particular moment, his first dance, has now been revisited by DJ Fat Tony, who was part of the celebrations.
Speaking on the British television show This Morning, DJ Fat Tony said the issue was less about the dance itself and more about how and when it happened. According to him, the sequence of events created confusion and emotional distress. He explained that Brooklyn was expecting to share his first dance with Nicola when the spotlight shifted unexpectedly.
The DJ recalled that singer Marc Anthony, a close family friend who was performing at the wedding, invited Victoria Beckham onto the stage. During his introduction, Anthony reportedly praised her, calling her “the most beautiful woman in the room.” While the comment may have been well-intentioned, Fat Tony suggested it intensified an already sensitive moment.
As Victoria joined Brooklyn on stage, Nicola was left standing off to the side. Fat Tony claimed that the situation quickly became overwhelming for the bride. He told the hosts that Nicola left the room in tears. “The timing made it awkward for everyone present,” he said, stressing that it wasn’t about inappropriate behaviour, but about expectations being disrupted.
He added that Brooklyn appeared devastated, caught between the moment he had envisioned with his wife and the sudden shift involving his mother. The DJ also mentioned that Marc Anthony encouraged a Latin-style dance, even instructing Brooklyn to place his hands on his mother’s hips, a detail that reportedly made guests uncomfortable.
Fat Tony and his husband, Stavros Agapiou, have previously supported Brooklyn’s version of events, noting that they were eyewitnesses at the ceremony. Their remarks align with claims Brooklyn has made about feeling humiliated during what was meant to be a special milestone.
The wedding, held in April 2022, was a lavish affair attended by close friends, family, and celebrities. However, behind the glamour, tensions were clearly brewing. The DJ’s comments have resurfaced old wounds, especially as they come shortly after Brooklyn’s six-page Instagram message addressing his fallout with his parents and the emotional toll of the wedding experience.
