American singer Marc Anthony made a shocking comment about Victoria Beckham during her son Brooklyn's wedding to Nicola Peltz.
After months of speculation, Brooklyn Beckham, the eldest child of David and Victoria Beckham, confirmed that he and his parents were no longer speaking in a damning statement.
The 26-year-old accused his parents of 'trying to ruin' his relationship with wife Nicola, while stating that Victoria in particular had been controlling him.
Perhaps the most shocking claim came as Brooklyn accused his mother of hijacking the couple's first dance at the wedding, saying that she was 'dancing inappropriately on him' in front of guests.

And now, a controversial comment from American singer Anthony made just moments before the alleged dance has emerged.
Anthony, the ex-husband of Jennifer Lopez, was hired as the wedding singer for Brooklyn and Nicola's evening, but reportedly played a role in inflaming tensions.
According to a report from PEOPLE, the Grammy Award-winning singer had called Brooklyn up to the stage, presumably for the first dance with his wife, before announcing to everyone that he would actually be dancing with his mum.
"Marc Anthony, who is a friend of the Beckhams, offered to perform as a gift at the wedding," a source told the outlet.
"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!'"
Another source described the moment as 'jaw-dropping', claiming: "It left the whole room in absolute shock–you could hear a pin drop."
They continued: "Nicole felt like Victoria did this on purpose, when she knew it was a pre-planned romantic dance meant for Brooklyn and Nicola. What she couldn’t understand was why."
The claims appear to back up the comments made by Brooklyn in a series of posts shared to his 16million+ followers on his Instagram stories.
"My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song. 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," he wrote.
"She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I've never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life.
