Marc Anthony ‘blamed for ruining Nicola and Brooklyn Beckham’s wedding and reigniting family feud after he encouraged ‘inappropriate’ dance and made jibe that saw the Peltzes storm out

Fans are angry with Marc Anthony, believing his actions led to the conflict within the Beckham family, specifically after what they saw as a disruption of Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz’s wedding.

A close friend of David and Victoria Beckham, and Jennifer Lopez’s ex-husband, sang at their wedding in 2022. He apparently made a comment that upset the bride so much she began to cry and left the room, and her family quickly followed.

Brooklyn, 26, publicly shared a detailed six-page statement on Monday explaining he doesn’t want to repair his relationship with his family. He claimed Victoria interfered with his first dance with his wife, behaving inappropriately and making him feel uncomfortable and humiliated.

However, DJ Fat Tony, a long-time friend of the Beckhams and also a performer at the event, claims singer Marc was responsible.

In addition to telling Brooklyn to put his hands on his mother’s hips, the singer announced Victoria was ‘the most beautiful woman in the room’ when introducing her for a surprise dance, which deeply upset bride Nicola.

Fans on X expressed their anger, with Love Island winner Dani Dyer questioning if Marc Anthony was to blame for everything.

People are blaming Marc Anthony for the awkward situation, suggesting Brooklyn reacted defensively towards Victoria because it was simpler than confronting Marc Anthony directly. Some find this explanation disappointing, simply stating, ‘So it’s all Marc Anthony’s fault?’

People are saying Marc Anthony is to blame for the drama surrounding the Beckhams. It seems a story about how Brooklyn described his mother’s dancing was false and fueled the controversy. Many believe Marc Anthony is actually the source of the problem, but the blame unfairly fell on Brooklyn’s mother.

People are commenting on Marc’s Instagram, eager to find out more about what happened.

In an exclusive interview with Daily Mail, Fat Tony revealed that Nicola’s family confronted her immediately after the wedding dance, leaving the groom visibly embarrassed. He then went to look for his new wife following the uncomfortable scene.

The DJ recalled a moment when Brooklyn had her hands around his mother’s waist and her arms around his mother’s neck.

Honestly, it just felt…wrong. Like, it was their day, you know? Supposed to be all about the happy couple, their special moment. And it just…happened, so fast, in the middle of everything. I still can’t believe it, it totally overshadowed everything else, and it wasn’t the time or the place, not at all!

Brooklyn left immediately following the dance. Nicola left the room and then went after her. After their daughter left, Nicola’s family followed. Marc Anthony, a Latin singer, performed a love song.

When questioned about touching Victoria’s hips, Brooklyn explained they were slow dancing, not something fast-paced like a samba. He said Victoria had her arms wrapped around his neck.

Daily Mail have contacted Marc Anthony’s representatives for comment. 

During Friday’s This Morning show on ITV, Tony explained that reports of overly provocative outfits or Spice Girls-style performances were untrue. He specifically stated there was no ‘slut-dropping,’ no PVC catsuits, and no attempt to recreate the Spice Girls’ image.

‘The word “inappropriate”, why I said it was as well, it was the timing, this is what happened.’

Tony explained that Marc Anthony was performing when he invited a person named Brooklyn up onto the stage.

Brooklyn walked onto the stage, and everyone immediately anticipated Nicola would begin the first dance. Then, Marc requested the most beautiful woman in the room join him onstage, and called for Victoria to come up.

He shared that Brooklyn appeared deeply upset that he danced with Victoria instead of his wife, and that Nicola left the room in tears.

Tony continued, explaining that Brooklyn was left on stage during a performance. Marc Anthony then instructed everyone to ‘put your hands on your mother’s hips’ as part of a Latin-inspired move, which created a very uncomfortable situation for those present.

I’ve hosted many parties for the Beckhams, and they’re a very close and lively family who really enjoy dancing. What some might consider inappropriate isn’t how Brooklyn sees things.

As a lifestyle expert, I always say it comes down to feeling. If someone – let’s say Brooklyn – felt a situation was uncomfortable or awkward, then for them, it absolutely was. It’s all about respecting individual perceptions and acknowledging how things feel to the person experiencing them.

Marc, a father of six, was married to Jennifer Lopez (J-Lo) from 2004 to 2011. They have 16-year-old twins together, Emme and Max.

He has four children: Arianna, 30, and Chase, 28, with Debbie Rosado, and Cristian, 23, and Ryan, 21, with his former wife, Dayanara Torres.

The musician dated Chloe Green, who is 23 years younger than him, for a year before they broke up in 2014. That same year, he married model Shannon De Lima, who is 37 years old.

After three years together, the couple split up. In 2023, he married Nadia Ferreira, who is 26, and they now have a one-year-old son named Marco.

As a lifestyle expert, I’ve been following the recent headlines, and it’s clear there’s a lot of talk about Brooklyn’s 2022 wedding. From what’s being shared, it sounds like things weren’t quite as smooth as they appeared. Apparently, his mother stepped in during his first dance with Nicola, which was meant to be a really special, romantic moment for the two of them. It’s definitely a surprising detail that’s come to light!

According to a source, Brooklyn felt deeply embarrassed, and his wife was both humiliated and angry that someone had stolen their spotlight.

‘She made her feelings very, very clear on the day. It soured the whole evening.’

The insider added of Victoria: ‘There was absolutely no malice there; quite the opposite.’

According to another source, David and Victoria Beckham are confused by the claims. They say everyone at the wedding appeared to be enjoying themselves immensely on the day, and no one expressed any concerns about the mother-son dance at the time.

According to reports, Victoria was only slightly intoxicated and enjoying herself. Meanwhile, Nicola was upset that he danced with his mother and expressed her displeasure.

According to Page Six, the actress became very distressed and left the reception in tears after Victoria Beckham embraced Brooklyn and affectionately rested her head against his neck.

According to a source, Victoria was dancing very closely and inappropriately with him, and she essentially stole a moment that should have been for Nicola. They claim this is absolutely true.

‘Nicola ran out crying. The Beckhams’ side of the room was cheering and the Peltz side was quiet.

Honestly, seeing a friend struggle is never easy. My friend Nicola was clearly upset – her face was really swollen, and everyone around her was urging her to take a break and come back inside. She eventually did, but it broke my heart to watch her feel so downcast for the rest of the night. It was just a really tough situation to witness.

According to one report, Brooklyn struggled with the wording of his six-page statement all weekend, after reportedly telling his wife he was ready to end things.

According to a source, he felt he had to speak out to stop the ongoing mistreatment of his wife. He was tired of being deceived and had made up his mind – and no one tried to dissuade him. He believed his parents were responsible for the situation and was determined to put an end to it.
