A guest who attended Brooklyn Beckham’s wedding revealed the truth behind the viral claims that Victoria danced ‘inappropriately’ with her son.
Brooklyn took to social media earlier this week to break his silence on his rumoured fallout from his parents, saying that he does not desire to reconcile with his family.
In his statement, the eldest child of David and Victoria Beckham claimed that his parents “endlessly to ruin” his relationship with his wife, Nicola Peltz Beckham.
“I have been silent for years and made every effort to keep these matters private,” he wrote.
“Unfortunately, my parents and their team have continued to go to the press, leaving me with no choice but to speak for myself and tell the truth about only some of the lies that have been printed.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family. I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
Brooklyn also accused Victoria of “hijacking” his and Nicola’s first dance at their wedding.
“My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song,” he wrote.
“In front of our 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 instead. She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone.
“I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.”
In a now-deleted post, a guest from the wedding addressed Brooklyn’s claims, and said he was telling the truth.
Stavros Agapiou attended with his partner, British DJ Fat Tony, who performed at the ceremony.
Agapiou commented on Jack Remington’s post about the controversy, saying: “I was there and she did, he’s telling the truth.”
However, he has since deleted the comment, and put a story up on his page saying that he is going to ‘keep his mouth shut from now on’, adding in a further story: “Publications are tapped.”
He also commented on Remington’s post again, saying: “Good on him for finally speaking out!”

Brooklyn's statement addressed some long-running rumours about what has gone on between him and his parents.
One of the things he addressed was rumours around his wife Nicola refusing to wear a dress designed by Victoria.
However, Nicola later told The Times that her mother-in-law did not think her atelier could finish the gown in time.
Brooklyn says his mother “cancelled making Nicola’s dress in the eleventh hour despite how excited she was to wear her design, forcing her to urgently find a new dress”.
He went on to explain that he and Nicola then had a vow renewal after three years of marriage, so that they could “create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment.”
Brooklyn also claims his parents “repeatedly pressured and attempted to bribe me into signing away the rights to my name” before he married Nicola.
Although it is not clear exactly what he is referring to, he said he never agreed to sign anything, adding that it “affected the payday, and they have never treated me the same since”.
He also addressed reports that he failed to show up for his dad’s 50th birthday party, claiming that both he and Nicola travelled to London for the event, but were “rejected for a week as we waited in our hotel room trying to plan quality time with him”.
“He refused all of our attempts, unless it was at his big birthday party with a hundred guests and cameras at every corner,” he wrote.
Brooklyn added that his dad eventually agreed to see him on the condition that Nicola was not present, which he dubbed a “slap in the face”.
The influencer said that his family value “public promotion and endorsements above all else”.
“Brand Beckham comes first,” he wrote.
“I have been controlled by my parents for most of my life,” Brooklyn continued.
“I grew up with overwhelming anxiety. For the first time in my life, since stepping away from my family, that anxiety has disappeared”.
He also claimed that his younger brothers have been “sent to attack me on social media, before they ultimately blocked me out of nowhere this last summer”.
This comes after Cruz Beckham, 20, claimed that members of his family “woke up blocked” by Brooklyn, after reports that they had unfollowed the eldest sibling.
