In January, the oldest Beckham child Brooklyn, 26, released an explosive statement denouncing his family and claiming that his mother Victoria had 'hijacked' his first dance with wife ande danced very inappropriately on me'.
Shortly after the showbiz-world shattering scandal, long-time family friend Tony spoke out - something he has now claimed in an interview with The Telegraph that he was 'asked to do' via his WhatsApp group with Brooklyn and Nicola.

He said: 'Yeah, I was [asked to speak]… There’s… a WhatsApp group [with Brooklyn and Nicola]'. I thought, I’m not going to throw anyone under a bus, I just spoke from the heart. I wasn’t there to slag off Victoria and David. I wasn’t spilling the beans.'
Tony emotionally added: 'I always like to see a happy ending, and I think that they will as a family all get back together. It’s really sad... It was getting to the point where everyone forgot the reality was that some kid’s hurting and a family’s lost their son.'

Days after the release of the six page statement, Tony claimed that Marc Anthony was to blame, revealing the musician had called Victoria to the dance floor with her son and instructed him, 'place your hands on your mother's hips'.
Speaking on This Morning, Tony shared: 'There was no slut-dropping, there was no PVC cat suits, no Spice Girl action! The word "inappropriate", why I said it was as well, it was the timing, this is what happened.'
Tony continued: 'What happened was, basically, Marc Anthony was performing on stage, he then called Brooklyn onto stage...
'Brooklyn went on to the stage, and the next minute everyone’s expecting Nicola to go up and do the first dance, and then Marc asked for the most beautiful woman in the room to come to the stage - and then he says "Victoria, come to the stage".'

He revealed that Brooklyn looked 'devastated' at the fact his first dance was with Victoria and not his wife, adding that Nicola left the room 'crying her eyes out'.
Tony went on: 'Brooklyn is stuck there on stage, and they do this dance, and Marc Anthony says "put your hands on your mother's hips" and it was a Latin thing, and the whole situation was really awkward for everyone in the room…

Detailing Brooklyn's motives for going public with his statement, Tony continued: 'It’s taken a lot for someone to go to social media, when your life is lived out on social media… he wanted to change the narrative'

'I’ve done an awful lot of Beckham parties in the past, and they are a very dancing close-knit family and love to dance, right? So you know, what we deem as "inappropriate" is not how Brooklyn feels...
'This is all about how Brooklyn feels. If he feels that it was inappropriate and awkward, it was inappropriate and awkward...
'What’s sad is that this is the bit that everyone's taken from the statement, and kind of whitewashed everything else that went on.'

'For all of his life, he’s been called [a] nepo baby, and "he should be grateful that he’s got the family name". But that’s what he was born into, y’know. I think what we’re all missing here is the fact that parents have lost their child and a son has lost his parents.'
When asked if he couldn’t counsel him to ‘go and live his life’ and not blow this up, Tony said: 'The thing is, it’s drip-fed.
'We live in a world where people make their own presumptions about everything and no, [there’s nothing you can do about that], you can’t, and the reason why I’ve come on This Morning is because it’s a safe space.

'I’ve been inundated with "you’re a liar", "you’re this, you’re that", and I haven’t even commented - my poor husband was in an argument and made a brief comment saying, "You weren’t there, I was, it’s true." Which then led onto [all those messages] it was ridiculous.'
On why he thought Brooklyn didn't approach his parents privately, Tony replied, 'He’s done all that. It got to the point for him where he can’t take this anymore and wanted to step back from it, and that was his way of doing closure.
'That’s his decision. I couldn't think of anything worse [for his parents] and I can only talk as a dog dad, but I didn’t talk to my own father for 30 years due my own understanding of a situation that I made up in my own head.
'And it wasn't until I reconciled with my father that I realised that I had to look at my part in it… so of course it’s really sad situation. Do I think they’ll talk again? Of course they will at some point, they are family. But the noise needs to die down, people need to step back from it.
'I didn’t realise there were two and a half million people at that wedding, because everyone seems to think they were there! Everyone feels the need to comment on it. And I’m sure they will have a field day with this, but that’s the world we live in.'
