Singer Marc Anthony has declined to be drawn into reports of a rift within the Beckham family, saying the way the story is unfolding publicly is "hardly the truth".
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Anthony said: "I have nothing to say about what's happening with the family. They’re a wonderful, wonderful family. I’ve known them since before the kids were born.
"I’m godfather to Cruz. I’m really close to the family. But I have nothing to say about what happened there."
He added: "It’s extremely unfortunate how it’s playing out, but [how it’s playing out] is hardly the truth."
The comments come after Brooklyn Beckham posted a statement on social media last month alleging longstanding tensions with his parents, David Beckham and Victoria Beckham, and saying he did not want reconciliation.
He also claimed his parents had "controlled narratives in the press" about the family.
Brooklyn also made claims about a moment during his wedding to Nicola Peltz Beckham in 2022, saying: "My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance…"
He added: "I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life."
A day after Brooklyn’s post, David Beckham spoke at the World Economic Forum in Davos and, while not addressing the allegations directly, said: "They make mistakes. Children are allowed to make mistakes. That’s how they learn."
The wedding incident has since been discussed publicly by DJ Fat Tony, who also performed at Brooklyn and Nicola's wedding.
He described the moment as "really awkward" and said the issue, in his view, was the timing rather than the dancing itself.
He added: "If he feels that it was inappropriate and awkward, it was inappropriate and awkward.
