What REALLY happened at Brooklyn Beckham's wedding to Nicola after explosive claim Posh stole 1st dance & made bride cry
ACCORDING to tradition, a bride's wedding day is all about the bride. Not so for 7 Brooklyn Beckham with wife Nicola Peltz Credit: Getty 7 Victoria enters the reception with David after the wedding Credit: Mega 7 Brooklyn and Nicola celebrate their first anniversary in 2023 with David and Victoria 7 Nicola and Brooklyn at their wedding Credit: German Larkin / Vogue In yet another astonishing new twist to the The latest chapter in the story centres on US singer Marc Anthony, who is reported to have sung to Victoria at the reception, rather than the bride, and added insult to injury by calling Posh 'the most beautiful woman in the room'. Friends of Only one thing is for certain, then: the divide between the two families has never been wider. Read More on Showbiz Last night a source who has worked with both Brooklyn and the Beckhams said: 'This whole situation is quite unprecedented, and no-one could have foretold things would get this bad, or this toxic — for toxic is what it is. 'While Nicola and Brooklyn's pals claim one thing, David and Victoria's say quite another — so somewhere along the line, someone is obfuscating. 'Or perhaps another more palatable explanation is, as David's hero the late Queen might say, recollections may vary. 'Unquestionably that wedding day — and the six-month build-up — was the tipping point for all that has followed. Most read in Celebrity Mean Girls vibes 'So from Nicola's perspective, it's no wonder she keeps bringing it up — what was meant to be the most special day of her life has been overtaken by events beyond her control. 'Her friends won't let that go and get very defensive of her. Beckhams fear there's no way back with Brooklyn after his latest move in bitter feud 'drove dagger through their hearts' 'For her part, Victoria, as a woman's woman, insists she would never deliberately derail her son's big day. 'It is all very sad, and right now I cannot see things ever being the way they were between Brooklyn and his parents.' The second — and perhaps irreversible — tipping point came earlier this month, in what was a week of celebrations for David's 50th birthday. His eldest son attended none of them. Nor, obviously, did his 30-year-old wife, who Puzzlingly, the two families' versions of events differ wildly. While Nicola and Brooklyn's pals claim one thing, David and Victoria's say quite another – so somewhere along the line, someone is obfuscating And while he claims the row started over brother Romeo's girlfriend of six months — who previously dated Brooklyn — the Beckhams claim Nicola is the true catalyst. She has been said to give off 'Mean Girls' vibes — a reference to the cult 2004 film — with the implication that she is 'spoilt' and 'entitled', and has dragged Brooklyn away from his family. Nicola, for her part, says she is simply supporting her husband, but is being portrayed 'cruelly'. 'Naturally it's always the woman who gets the blame,' laments one friend Stateside. How deeply unseemly this he-said/she-said battle must be for David, who recently graced the cover of Time magazine for his charitable endeavours. Certainly it is not on brand for the Beckhams, a couple who have steadfastly cemented themselves — the royals notwithstanding — as Britain's most famous family. 7 Singer Marc Anthony and wife Nadia Ferreira at the wedding in April 2022, where he is said to have sung to Victoria instead of the bride Credit: Eroteme 7 A source claimed a room full of guests saw Nicola run off in tears after seeing Victoria awkwardly dancing with Brooklyn Credit: German Larkin / Vogue In fact that is something they have done so well — thanks to endless endorsement deals, Becks's And I wouldn't bet against them being billionaires by the time the former England midfielder is 55. (Although it might pain them to note, this is still less than half of Nicola's tycoon dad Nelson's estimated personal fortune). 'Brand', though, is a negative term for Her camp has briefed US periodicals suggesting that Posh 'n' Becks are more concerned with keeping up appearances — and maintaining the family brand — than making things up with their boy. They have labelled the Beckhams' attempts to reach out to Brooklyn — posting Instagram stories tagging him — as 'performative'. Showbiz website TMZ quoted 'sources familiar with the situation' as saying the young couple 'have made themselves available for months and months to discuss all of the ongoing drama', but that David and Victoria refuse to talk with Nicola around 'because she always talks back to them and stands up for Brooklyn'. The Transformers actress believes she has always supported the Beckhams by attending Victoria's fashion shows and promoting her products on social media — but doesn't get the same treatment in return. 7 Brooklyn and Nicola, seen in silhouette having their first kiss as a married couple Credit: Mega For instance, the website claims, Nicola asked Victoria to promote her dog rescue centre, Yogi's House, during the LA wildfires in January, but Victoria apparently blamed her social media co-ordinator, saying: 'She's not posting content right now.' Yet pals of the Beckhams would likely argue that only last February Victoria flew to LA to support Nicola on the red carpet of her movie, Lola — even dressing her in a bespoke VB outfit. Of course, that £1,190 co-ord outfit came back to haunt Nicola last month when Victoria appeared to goad her daughter-in-law, wearing the exact same thing — sparking a 'who wore it better' debate on social media. So what is the truth? Well, performative or not, all four protagonists still follow one another on Instagram. But hey, that's showbiz! And now the wedding has been wheeled out again, with those reports alleging Nicola cried on her wedding day. The source told People magazine: 'Marc Anthony, who is a friend of the Beckhams, offered to perform as a gift at the wedding. 'Before the song began, Marc asked Brooklyn to come to the stage, and then announced, 'The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up . . . Victoria Beckham!'' It was such a jaw-dropping moment that it left the whole room in absolute shock. You could hear a pin drop Source A second source said the entire room went silent after Victoria's name was called instead of the bride's, and added: 'It was such a jaw-dropping moment that it left the whole room in absolute shock. You could hear a pin drop.' After seeing Victoria awkwardly dancing with his mother, Nicola is said to have burst into tears. Nonsense, sigh Victoria's pals. They claim the couple danced to Elvis after marrying — long before Victoria danced with Brooklyn. One says: 'At the reception there were the traditional speeches, then the happy couple had their first dance. In fact they had two dances. 'After this, Nicola had a dance with her father Nelson, again entirely traditional for the bride to dance with Dad, and at this point normally the groom would dance with his mum. "For whatever reason, that didn't happen. Much later, as a gift to the couple, Marc Anthony performed a few songs. 'Everyone got up to dance and as part of this he pulled his best friends David and Victoria up on stage, and then grabbed Brooklyn to dance with his mum, and Harper danced with David. 'Cruz also got up with Eva Longoria — it was a fun family moment and one dance. No-one realised in the moment that Nicola was upset.' Whatever the truth — and tellingly the Beckhams didn't wish Nicola and Brooklyn a happy anniversary last month, either privately or publicly — the quartet won't be playing happy families any time soon.

Ashleigh Gentle keen to bounce back in San Francisco T100
The Australian had previously won twice in Singapore but was unable to replicate her achievements amidst the stifling heat of this year's race, finishing sixth, almost 10 minutes behind T100 debutant Kate Waugh. Saturday's San Francisco showpiece will be hosted at the iconic Escape from Alcatraz course and Gentle is relishing the opportunity to make amends. She reflected: "Singapore was an interesting one because I felt like I'd done a lot of really good training before the race and I didn't expect to be so far behind my usual mark. "I rode the worst I'd ridden since I moved to middle distance and was so far off my best in the run. "It wasn't great but reflecting back, I finished my season in mid-December last year. I think I rushed too quickly to be fit for Singapore because it meant so much to me and I overcooked it. "I fit too much in and wasn't quite there. It's not how I usually perform. "I was upset about it after the race but I just had to accept it and move on because I knew it wasn't anywhere near what I'm capable of." The T100 Triathlon World Tour takes in locales as varied as Vancouver, London, the French Riviera, Valencia, Lake Las Vegas and Dubai over the course of a globetrotting campaign. And having finished runner-up last year, Gentle has an eye on going one step further, beginning with this Saturday's Stateside showdown. She added: "The fields have always been exceptionally good and you have new faces this year. "Everyone's coming out and delivering really quickly because they're putting a lot of importance on the racing and are excited about the series. "Everyone has trained for it and is ready for it so it's about just getting to each race and seeing how you stack up and seeing how you can put good races together and not be off the mark. "Kate [Waugh] did really well. She's a super strong athlete, most people knew that and for her to convert to t100 and win her first ever event was a huge moment for her. "You could tell she was happy and super excited and it was nice to see that elation on her face when she crossed the finish line. "There were a lot of us who wished we were closer in the competition but she's really fit right now and deserved that win. "A huge group of us are looking at her and how she set the bar really high this season and it's about us getting to that level." Watch the world's top 20 female and top 20 male triathletes race live in the San Francisco T100 over the legendary Escape From Alcatraz course on Saturday 31 May. The broadcast starts at 0545 local time, 1345 in the UK, with the races starting 15 minutes later.

Lowry left frustrated by another Sunday slip-up as Straka wins Truist Championship
Shane Lowry and Sepp Straka walked off the 7th tee box at The Philadelphia Cricket Club on Sunday afternoon and began comparing notes on what they'd got their mams for Mother's Day. It was confirmation that the two-man final-round showdown for the $20m Truist Championship was very much a friendly face-off. While the mics picked up talk of flowers, it was also all too obvious what Bridget Lowry would have fancied to mark the Stateside version of Mothering Sunday. At 38, her son has savoured career milestones. But not too as many glory moments lately. Heading out co-leader with his Ryder Cup teammate from Austria, Lowry was looking for a first solo PGA Tour victory since 2019 and first Stateside solo win in a decade. The timing of a potential triumph, with the season's second major kicking off Thursday at Quail Hollow, was tantalising. Alas, another struggling Sunday was about Lowry's lot as Straka held his nerve for a steady but far from spectacular two-shot victory over the Offaly man. In keeping with title tilt that mostly foundered on his inability to get the putter going, Lowry three-putted from 20 feet for an ugly bogey on the final hole when a birdie would have forced a playoff. He rubbed his temples as Straka sealed his second win of the season with a par, Lowry perhaps wondering how he'd mustered just a level-par 70 when a 67 would have ended what is, in the wake of Rory McIlroy finally completing his slam, the most agitating run in Irish golf. The early part of Lowry's week had been much more light-hearted with some very on-brand self-slagging. 'Better to be lucky than good,' he wrote on Friday, sharing footage of a putt on the 11th which hurtled to the hole, hit the back of the cup and somehow spun back in for birdie. Lucky? Sure. But Lowry has been damn good lately too, the kinda good that makes it easier to make fun of oneself. This week made it 10-straight cuts made since February. In the previous nine events he had seven top-25s, three top 10s and a runner-up spot at the AT&T in Pebble Beach. Now he has another, joint second-place alongside Justin Thomas his lot after the closing bogey. 'I've been like this for the past couple of years. Since the Ryder Cup in Rome, I feel like I've kicked on a little bit and been quite mature,' he said Saturday night. 'I've put a lot into it the last two years, my whole career, but particularly the last two years. Starting to see some rewards is good. Obviously you want trophies, and that's going to be my number one goal [tomorrow].' For too long now, finishing the job has been a vexing thing. Given his ability and consistency, there should be more pots and pans on the mantlepiece goes a fair argument. In a sit-down with the Examiner last summer, Lowry reflected on sabbath slips. 'When I've a chance to do something on Sunday I'm never happy with anything other than the win,' he said then. 'Even though I don't win loads, I've won enough, a bit in my career. But when you've a chance on a Sunday…' He had more than a chance in Philadelphia. A late birdie Saturday ensured he went off tied with Straka, three shots clear of Thomas who did do his best to barge into contention. When Lowry lashed a driving iron down the first fairway a punter near the tee box bellowed 'Go Birds!', the refrain for Philly's beloved NFL Eagles. The Offaly man duly delivered, rolling in a 12-foot birdie putt to take the outright lead on 15 under. Driving well, Lowry's brilliant scrambling game found him another birdie on the long 5th but Straka's stellar putting helped him to an eagle to leave the pair tied at the top. When Straka bogeyed the 6th, Lowry was back in front until he bogeyed the 8th and suddenly found himself two back. By the 12th they were level again with Thomas just one more back. Some heart medication may have been the more appropriate Mother's Day gift. On and on they went. It was compelling without being particularly sparkling. Lowry simply couldn't get the putter working. The duo went shot for shot to an almost bizarre level, both coming up surprisingly short on the long 15th. Lowry went first and produced a quite gorgeous chip which shaved the hole for eagle. So close to a key moment. In the scorer's tent, TV cameras caught Rory McIlroy putting his hands to his head in frustration for his close friend. The resulting tap-in birdie put Lowry in the lead again but it was all too brief as Straka also birdied. That would be as close as it got. On the short 16th Lowry tried a fade that didn't fade, only finding a horrible lie in the greenside rough. Another impressive chip gave him a shot of an escape but his par putt agonizingly lipped back around and out. Straka had a one-shot lead and an all-too familiar pain hovered into view. After driving the ball so well all day, Lowry lashed on wildly wide and towards the fairway hospitality on the 18th but was given a drop. When Straka hit a gem out of the bunker from 200-plus yards back, Lowry was in sudden death mode. He hit his to 20 feet and would have a chance at forcing a play-off. Instead, that dastardly three-putt and a sickening 70. Perhaps he'll take out some frustration on Quail Hollow this for now the wait goes on.
