Brooklyn Beckham Says Mom Victoria “Humiliated” Him at His Wedding

by

Brooklyn Peltz Beckham has some unpleasant memories from his wedding.

It was supposed to be the happiest day of my life, watching Romeo tie the knot with Nicola Peltz Beckham. But he recently shared some really sad stuff – how his parents, David and Victoria Beckham, actually made the wedding a bit difficult for him. He specifically mentioned feeling awkward when they unexpectedly had a mother-son dance. It’s heartbreaking to hear that even on such a special occasion, things weren’t perfect for him.

Brooklyn shared that his mother unexpectedly took over his first dance at his wedding. He explained in an Instagram Story that the dance had been carefully planned for weeks to a romantic song. Instead of dancing with his wife in front of their 500 guests, Marc Anthony called him on stage where his mother was waiting to dance with him instead.

Brooklyn felt upset not only because Victoria seemed to overshadow his and Nicola’s moment, but also because the way she danced with him made him feel embarrassed and uncomfortable. He said she danced inappropriately with him in front of everyone.

Brooklyn explained that after a difficult experience with their wedding three years prior, he and Nicola wanted to renew their vows. They hoped to create new, joyful memories of their wedding day, replacing the anxiety and embarrassment they previously felt.

TopMob News has reached out to reps for David and Victoria for comment.

The chef recently spoke about his wedding while also addressing rumors of a strained relationship with his parents, in a detailed statement where he finally shared his side of the story.

But as he explained, he has no plans to extend an olive branch any time soon.

Brooklyn stated she doesn’t want to make amends with her family. She explained that she’s asserting her independence and finally taking a stand for herself.

In a recent post, Brooklyn accused his parents of manipulating the media coverage of their family, prioritizing the “Beckham brand” over everything else, and actively attempting to sabotage his relationship with Nicola.

Brooklyn remembered that the night before her wedding, some family members told her Nicola wasn’t ‘one of us’ because they weren’t related by blood.

Honestly, it really bothers me when people say my husband is controlled by his wife. That’s just not true at all! He’s actually spent most of his life feeling controlled by his parents. He’s always struggled with really bad anxiety, and I think that’s the root of it all. It’s not about me, it’s about a lifetime of feeling powerless.

I’ve been following the Beckhams for years, and it’s really heartwarming to see Brooklyn doing so much better. It seems like making the choice to create some space between himself and his family – Victoria and David, along with his siblings Romeo, Cruz, and Harper – has actually been a really positive thing for his mental wellbeing. It’s just lovely to see him thriving.

He explained that his anxiety is gone. Now, he wakes up each morning feeling thankful for the life he’s built and feels a sense of calm and contentment.

Brooklyn and Nicola finished their statement by saying they simply want a peaceful, private life and happiness for their future family, and don’t want to live under the pressure of public attention or manufactured narratives.

For a look back at how the Beckham family drama has unfolded over the years, read on.

While there wasn’t an official expectation, many people assumed Nicola Peltz Beckham would wear a wedding dress designed by her future mother-in-law, Victoria Beckham, when she married Brooklyn Beckham in April 2022 at her family’s estate in Palm Beach, Florida.

So when she didn’t, going with Valentino Couture instead… Bad blood alert!

Nicola kept quiet about the issue for months, but eventually confirmed there wasn’t a conflict over a dress. She did mention being a little upset that she couldn’t wear a custom design by Victoria Beckham.

In August 2022, Nicola told Variety that she had initially planned to wear a dress designed by this particular designer and was very excited about it. However, a few months later, the designer informed her that her workshop wasn’t able to fulfill the request, so Nicola had to choose a different dress. She clarified that the designer never forbade her from wearing the original dress, and she never expressed a lack of interest in it. The misunderstanding began there and was then exaggerated by others.

Brooklyn shared that she’s realized people will always attempt to be critical or negative, but thankfully, everyone on set gets along well.

Speaking to Grazia the following month, Nicola called the Beckhams “great in-laws.”

Victoria, who rarely addresses gossip, finally described the Peltz-Beckham wedding as “beautiful.”

Oh my gosh, when I saw her on TODAY that October, she just radiated joy! She said seeing her son so happy meant everything to her, and honestly, it melted my heart. She was like, ‘What more could anyone even want?’ It was the sweetest thing ever, and I totally get it – his happiness is all that matters, right?

Tom Cruise and all four members of the Spice Girls attended Victoria Beckham’s elegant 50th birthday party on April 20, 2024, though her daughter-in-law was unable to make it.

Nicola shared on Instagram that she was visiting her grandmother, who sadly passed away less than a month later.

Nicola couldn’t make it to Victoria Beckham’s birthday party, so she shared a message on Instagram saying, “Happy birthday to my beautiful mother-in-law! I’m so sad I can’t be there to celebrate with you and give you a hug. Sending you all my love from me and my nanny. I miss everyone so much!” She had also wished Victoria a happy birthday on April 17th, posting a photo of them together and writing, “I love you so much and love being your dance partner forever.”

Nicola was deeply saddened by the loss of Naunni, and many others felt the same. Brooklyn shared a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, remembering Naunni’s joyful spirit and how she always brought laughter. Brooklyn expressed missing Naunni dearly and wishing her future children could have known her, calling her a truly unique and irreplaceable person who is missed every day.

In a June 2024 interview with InStyle, Brooklyn reflected on his upbringing – growing up with a famous football player for a father and a Spice Girl for a mother – and said he had a very happy childhood.

He admitted things were busy, but said he had a lot of fun thanks to his amazing parents.

Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz spent some of the 2024 holidays with Nicola’s family, and photos shared by David Beckham and Victoria showed the entire Beckham family enjoying time together in the present, making it clear everyone was united.

Victoria shared a series of photos celebrating the holidays with her family, writing, ‘Being together makes me so happy. I love you all so much!’ She also tagged her children and daughter-in-law in the post.

It’s unclear why, but Brooklyn and Nicola weren’t in any of the pictures David’s parents shared from his 50th birthday celebration with family and friends in London in May 2025.

According to a source at TopMob News, the couple traveled to England, choosing to miss the Met Gala on May 5th. They reportedly hoped to visit David and celebrate his birthday with him during that week or weekend.

According to a source who spoke with People magazine, Brooklyn Beckham decided against going to David’s party because he didn’t want to encounter his brother Romeo’s girlfriend at the time, DJ Kim Turnbull. Turnbull had been increasingly present at family events, such as the Victoria Beckham show during Paris Fashion Week in March 2025, ever since she and Romeo began dating publicly in November 2024.

Okay, so there’s been a lot of talk online about why Brooklyn Beckham missed his dad’s party, and people were wondering if it had something to do with Kim. Well, I just saw a comment from Brooklyn’s younger brother, Cruz, and he cleared things up – he said Brooklyn and Kim were never actually dating. Just setting the record straight, you know?

TopMob News reported in June 2025 that Romeo and Kim have split up, suggesting a possible reconnection between Romeo and his brother could be on the horizon.

The wedding is facing even more drama now that reports have surfaced about a problem during the couple’s first dance. It’s not clear exactly what happened, but things didn’t go as planned.

According to a source who spoke with TopMob News in May 2025, Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz expected Marc Anthony to perform their first dance. However, Anthony surprised everyone by announcing, “Please welcome to the stage the most beautiful woman in the room—Victoria Beckham.” This left Brooklyn feeling confused and put him in an uncomfortable position.

Nicola briefly left the wedding reception in tears, but she returned and was able to compose herself to enjoy the celebration.

While the situation was upsetting, it didn’t stop David from being a best man at Marc’s wedding to Nadia Ferreira in January 2023. However, it’s easy to see why Nadia might have been more deeply affected by it.

According to a source, Brooklyn and Nicola have genuinely tried to build a relationship with his family over the years, but things are currently strained.

In May 2025, Brooklyn shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, calling Nicola his “whole world.” He wrote about always choosing her and described her as the most amazing person he knows, adding that they would be together forever.

When accusations arise, those accused usually hire lawyers. The recent story about Nicola being upset at her wedding three years ago might be a sign of further issues to come.

Okay, so I’ve been following Brooklyn and Nicola’s situation closely, and everyone was buzzing about them supposedly hiring a lawyer who also worked with Harry and Meghan! Honestly, I was bracing for some major PR spin. But a source – a reliable source, let me tell you – confirmed they do have a lawyer, but it’s not about fixing their image or anything. It’s something else entirely, and I’m dying to know what! It’s not about damage control, that’s all I needed to hear.

I’ve been following this closely, and it seems they’ve brought in Jenny Afi from the Schillings law firm. Apparently, she’s been hired to correct inaccuracies and fight back against all the false information that’s been circulating.

Although the law firm represents the Sussexes – and had David and Victoria Beckham as guests at their 2018 wedding – a source confirmed there’s no link between this situation and Meghan and Harry. The source emphasized that Schillings is a well-regarded firm with many different clients.

The source pointed out that this situation itself proved the value of having a lawyer – to correct false information and ensure the truth is known.

Neither Brooklyn nor Nicola publicly acknowledged David receiving a knighthood in November 2025. They were also missing from the celebration when David’s team, Inter Miami CF, won the MLS Cup in December 2025; only Victoria, Romeo, Cruz, and Harper were there to cheer the victory.

In late December 2025, rumors spread that David and Victoria Beckham had blocked their son Brooklyn on Instagram. Cruz Beckham quickly dismissed these claims, confirming they hadn’t blocked him.

He denied the claims on Instagram Stories, stating, “My parents would never unfollow me.” He clarified that his parents and he were all blocked from seeing each other’s accounts, and that’s what people were seeing.

Brooklyn Beckham chose to celebrate Christmas 2025 with his wife Nicola’s family, including her parents Claudia Heffner Peltz and Nelson Peltz, rather than joining his own family. His younger brother, Cruz, stayed home for the holidays with their parents.

David recently shared a look back at 2025 with photos of his year spent with family and friends. Notably absent from the pictures were his oldest son and Nicola, his son’s wife, fueling ongoing speculation about a family disagreement.

An hour later, David posted old photos of himself with each of his and Victoria’s children. He captioned a black-and-white picture with Brooklyn, simply writing, “I love you all so much.”
