To feel very sorry for Vicky B

Yes, we don’t know the full story, but so many things being said about the dance story being untrue-they had already had their dance, she’d also danced with her father, Vb was reportedly called onto the stage by her friend, Marc A and was shy to do so. She comes across as a very awkward, sad person, David seems to dislike her and speak down to her. I can imagine she must be devastated and so humiliated by this. No matter the issues, Brooklyn shouldn’t have issued the problems publicly.
I know a lot about issues with Mil’s but my instinct tells me that this could be her and perhaps she has been difficult from the start. She doesn’t have a reputation for being a nice person at all, even before all this and it’s been said there may have been similar situations in the past with an ex of hers.
In comparison, I’ve never seen anyone say a bad word about Vb, the opposite in fact, she seems to have a great relationship with all her other children and the partners, plus a good relationship with Db’s family
She just must feel so devastated and humiliated, your first born that you held in your arms as a baby.

All so sad

When Bb posted last night, how long was it on his stories? Did he take them down quite quickly-maybe in regret? Or were they on for hours?

I think they were up for a while, as I saw them an hour after they were posted

I wonder whether David’s appearance at that money conference was spontaneous? 👀

I always wonder if they did gender selection if that’s possible?

I believe it is in the US. Even if it isn't, wealthy people often get round the rules.

He sounds like he’s offloading and is really sad. The dance and dress thing is nothing really. The point is he’s felt miserable for most of his life by his family and has been pushed into the public eye since he was a baby. I hate how parents do that. Even his ex chloe moretz said they used to be followed by their cars to check their behaviour was good enough for the press.

This is it, you don’t go nuclear like this over nothing, this man has been truly unhappy for some time

how old is Nicola, out of interest?

Yeah. I actually have reported the thread, I don't think that this place should be used for this purpose. Goodness knows we get enough fake posters and advertising, but shilling for Brand Beckham is a new low.

But girls, what about my need to gossip about the Beckhams 😂😂🙈

I suspect there might be one or two million other thresds 😂.

According to Google Nicola is 31!

I feel sorry for her but wish she didn’t take herself so seriously

EsmaCannonball · 20/01/2026 20:31

A friend of mine had a career where she dealt with famous people day-in, day-out. Hollywood stars, soap stars, stadium-filling rock stars, household name comedians, grand dames of the theatre, people so famous they had films made about them. Most people were nice, some were truly lovely, and the occasional person was a nasty piece of work.

Then she decided to go into business as a wedding planner. She said it was the worst decision she ever made and the most stressful time of her life. Brides-to-be were the most horrendous, demanding, insanely unreasonable people imaginable.

She's now back dealing with famous people.

There's something about weddings, and the expectation of perfection, that brings out the brattishness in people; and the fancier the wedding, the worst that is. To non-billionaires their grievances seem so small.

Rosealea · 20/01/2026 20:36

I don't feel sorry for her in the slightest. She's pimped those kids and their lives out since they were conceived. She didn't realise that one of them would grow a brain big enough to realise that they'd been used and abused to keep the precious brand in the daily fail.

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 20/01/2026 20:36

@EsmaCannonball my friend has a similar job and it's very interesting to hear which people are different on and off stage and how many people swear that X famous person really is lovely because they see them interviewed or on stage, showing what they want you to see.

Who gives a damn about these nepo babes, their narcissistic pheasant shooting parents, their mother who’s a crap singer, their philandering father, their other talentless siblings, their nonentity of an American wife and her equally nonentity of a family?
As for that post…I doubt the man child even knows the meaning of narcissistic let alone spell it.
i suppose I must give a little bit of a damn myself as I’ve read a bit about it.
But why oh why are Radio 4 reporting on this shit show?
p.s…..anyone got a clip of that first dance 🤣🤣

I mean, yes...what's so fascinating about the Beckhams?? I like the Spice Girls but she hasn't been in them for nearly 30 years. I know David Beckham is a famous footballer but are their personal lives really that enthralling?

The other 3 kids seem blissfully happy

If Marc Anthony called her onto the stage against her wishes, she could have said “Oh no, the first dance should be between the newlyweds” rather than humping her son in front of hundreds of people.

It was waaaaay after the first dance with the newly weds, the second dance with the bride and father and a whole load of other dances before MA came into the mix. It was the first dance for HIS set. And as no one (as far as I know) has seen the video, I find the idea of her behaving disrespectfully slightly strange. And that no one at the wedding has ever mentioned any of this before.

The OP will pop up in a minute to tell you that your wrong 😆.

David could've at least have given her his jacket to wrap round her waist.

Yes! Even if she’d just spilled her drink in an unfortunate place, a nice, non-angry husband would surely have tried to help her hide it instead of leading his clearly- drunk wife out into a pack of paparazzi with a big wet stain over her crotch. Yikes.

It’s definitely wee wee stain

Blondeshavemorefun · 20/01/2026 20:47

Can someone link the video again please

MoonWoman69 · 20/01/2026 20:47

I have absolutely no sympathy for her at all. Good for Brooklyn for finally speaking out. It seems he was left with no option, as it appears there is a lot of toxicity from the parents in that family. It's all about the brands, all about the money, all about exploiting their kids. Enough was enough for him and especially after the embarrassing show she made of herself at his wedding!

Whilst Cowell seems to be morphing into Skeletor these days.

What is the ‘inauthenticity in relationships’ he speaks about?

Come on now. Poor skeletor has feelings.

I assume he means that the image they portray is of D&V being a loving couple, when they only stay together to protect brand Beckham. £££ and fame its all they care about

I'm not seeing this 'stain. I just see blackness in her outfit.

Yeah that probably was a bit of an unfair comparison.

It’s definitely there in other pics - look on internet
