Cruz Beckham subtly reacts to brother Brooklyn's wedding dance claim against mom Victoria

Published Jan 23, 2026 9:42 am

The Beckham family saga continues, with Cruz Beckham using social media to subtly show his reaction to his brother Brooklyn's claim that their mother Victoria danced inappropriately on him during his wedding to Nicola Peltz. 

A few days ago, the eldest Beckham son said that Victoria's "inappropriate" wedding dance left him "uncomfortable" and "humiliated."

Seemingly poking fun at his brother's allegation, Cruz, 20, third of the four Beckham children, liked two satirical Instagram posts that made a joke about Victoria's dance moves. 

As reported by E! News, one of the posts showed a clip of Victoria performing, along with the rest of the Spice Girls, her single Not Such An Innocent Girl at the TMF Awards in 2001. The former Posh Spice busts moves around the stage wearing black leather pants and a black halter top. 

The post was captioned, "The wedding dance in question."

Cruz liked another Instagram post, this time from comedian Olly Hume. Pretending to be the DJ at Brooklyn's wedding, Hume introduced the next song, "And now the song requested by the mother of the groom for her first dance with her son." He then played Ginuwine's Pony and proceeded to look shocked. 

"Interesting moves Victoria," he wrote in the caption. 

In his exposé, Brooklyn shared the wedding dance had been carefully planned way ahead. He and his bride were going to dance to a romantic song. But before family friend Marc Anthony performed the song, he called Victoria to the dance floor. 

"The most beautiful woman in the room tonight, come on up... Victoria Beckham," Anthony said. 

Insiders told PEOPLE Magazine guests were shocked that Anthony called Victoria's name over Peltz's. Sources said the incident offended the bride, Nicola, so much that she left the room in tears. 

Following his explosive claims on social media, a source told PEOPLE only Brooklyn and his wife have access to the wedding dance video, and they would prefer it stays that way. 

“It’s an extremely embarrassing moment for them and it would not be good for Brooklyn’s mental health to see this circulating online,” the insider said.

The wedding dance was just one of the details Brooklyn revealed in his Jan. 20 post, also claiming his parents had controlled him for most of his life, and that to them, the Beckham brand was more important than family relationships. 

"I do not want to reconcile with my family. I'm not being controlled. I'm standing up for myself for the first time in my life," he said. 

The day after, patriarch David indirectly touched on the subject when he guested at CNBC's financial program Squawk Box. 

"They make mistakes. Children are allowed to make mistakes," David said, talking about kids' social media use. "That's how they learn. So that's what I've tried to teach my kids. But you have to sometimes let them make those mistakes, as well."
