Family friend DJ Fat Tony has weighed in on the reported rift between Sir David and Lady Victoria Beckham and their son Brooklyn, describing the couple as an 'amazing PR machine.' The DJ, who previously discussed the saga on ITV's This Morning, told Hello! Magazine that he was 'dragged into' the dispute.
Three Words That Sum Up the Beckhams
Tony, who served as DJ for Brooklyn Beckham's wedding to Nicola Peltz, shared three words to describe the Beckham family: 'Amazing PR machine.' He said: 'They are who they are; they're an amazing PR machine; they do wonderful things and I've just gone in a different direction. I love Brooklyn, I love Nicola.'
Tony added: 'It's always sad when there's a rift in any family. It just so happened that I got dragged into one. I went on [This Morning] to change a narrative of the word "inappropriate" and where it was going for Victoria, where it was going for Brooklyn. It was not a nice situation.'
Brooklyn's Allegations and Estrangement
Brooklyn, who is married to US actress and billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz, has reportedly been locked in a bitter feud with his parents in recent months and is now believed to be estranged from the family. In January, Brooklyn revealed that he did not want to 'reconcile' with his family. He also alleged that his mother Victoria had 'danced very inappropriately on me' during his wedding.
Earlier, Brooklyn posted on Instagram accusing his parents of 'controlling narratives in the press' about the family and trying 'endlessly to ruin [his] relationship since before [his] wedding.'
Father's Day Posts and World Cup Advert
Despite the tensions, Sir David and Victoria shared Father's Day messages on Instagram. Sir David wrote: 'Being a dad is my most important job, I love you all and thank you mummy @victoriabeckham For giving me our beautiful family. Happy Father's Day to all the Dads around the world.' Victoria posted a photo of David with a glass of wine, writing: 'David you truly are the best daddy. Your greatest achievement has always been our beautiful children and we love you so much. Happy Father's Day.'
However, Brooklyn reportedly did not post a message for Father's Day. He recently appeared in a World Cup advert for DoorDash that appeared to make light of the family feud. In the ad, Brooklyn sits on a sofa and says: 'You're probably wondering why I’m watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 from home…' He smirks and laughs: 'It's a long story.' He then throws down his tickets onto the coffee table, with the ad stating: 'It’s complicated. More soon.'
Family Friend's Perspective
Tony praised the Beckhams as 'incredible' and noted that Sir David and Victoria had raised their children 'impeccably.' He also mentioned that he sees Romeo Beckham often: 'I see Romeo all the time; he's always around. He's doing incredibly. He's just dropped his new clothing range, so it's amazing. They're all doing well, and Cruz.'
