Some of the most shocking information in Brooklyn Beckham’s statement about his parents is the claims about Victoria Beckham’s behavior at his wedding. In his post, Brooklyn said he had problems with his mother leading up to the big day. During the reception, he claimed his mother “hijacked” his first dance with Nicola Peltz-Beckham. Even before Brooklyn released his statement, sources said Victoria’s behavior at the wedding raised eyebrows.

Brooklyn Beckham said Victoria Beckham embarrassed him at his wedding

In his Instagram statement, Brooklyn wrote about family tension in the lead up to his wedding. He claimed that his parents repeatedly tried to “ruin” his relationship with Nicola. At the ceremony, he said Victoria “hijacked” his first dance.

“In front of 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule was planned to be my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me,” he wrote. “She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”

He noted that he and Nicola renewed their vows in 2025 to create better memories surrounding their wedding.

A guest claimed Victoria Beckham shocked people at Brooklyn Beckham’s wedding

Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding took place in Palm Beach in 2022. A source at the wedding recalled the moment between mother and son.

“Marc Anthony, who is a friend of the Beckhams, offered to perform as a gift at the wedding,” the source told People. “Before the song began, Marc Anthony asked Brooklyn to come to the stage, and then announced, ‘The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up … Victoria Beckham!'” 

The moment reportedly left guests stunned.

“It was such a jaw-dropping moment that it left the whole room in absolute shock — you could hear a pin drop,” a second source said.

The source noted that this left Nicola feeling that Victoria “ruined” her wedding. She reportedly left the room in tears.

“Nicola felt like Victoria did this on purpose, when she knew it was a pre-planned romantic dance meant for Brooklyn and Nicola,” they said. “What she couldn’t understand was why.”

Another source said the moment went down differently

While some sources recalled a dramatic moment at the wedding, others shared a different version of events.

“Nicola and Brooklyn had their formal first dance early in the evening and she also had the traditional first dance with her father,” one source said.

They added that the moment with Marc Anthony happened much later in the night, during a more casual portion of the wedding.

“Later on, when everyone was casual, Marc Anthony performed and got people dancing,” the source said. “Brooklyn and Victoria danced, David and Harper danced, and everyone had a great time.”

At this point, the family still remains divided.
