    Cruz Beckham ‘is set for a huge change in his music career as he signs with new management who represent rock bands The Strokes and Thirty Seconds To Mars’

    Cruz Beckham is reportedly set to take his music career in a bold new direction after signing with management known for representing some of rock’s biggest bands.

    The budding musician, 19, kickstarted his career when he was just 11 years old and the Beckham family have spent a small ‘fortune’ to help him create his sound with top songwriters.

    Now, sources claim Cruz has signed with the top music management company C3, who worked with US indie group The Strokes, as well as Thirty Seconds To Mars.

    It’s also reported that Cruz has parted ways with TaP Music Management, which looked after pop acts including Dua Lipa to focus on a ‘more guitar-led organic sound.’

    A source told The Sun: ‘His move from TaP was amicable but he’s signed with C3 who manage rock bands like Thirty Seconds to Mars and Modest Mouse.

    ‘They are more in line with where his music is evolving.

    ‘Playing live is going to be a big part of the roll-out of his music and Cruz and his new team want to be sure it’s perfect before he launches.’

    MailOnline has contacted a representative for Cruz Beckham for comment.

    In February it was reported that Cruz had been working with writer Ed Frewett, who has four No1 singles already and has written Shout Out To My Ex and Black Magic for Little Mix, All Time Low and Glad You Came for The Wanted and Best Song Ever, Steal My Girl and History for One Direction.

    He has also been working with producer Fred Ball, who has worked with RihannaBeyonce and Mariah Carey, and Joe Rubel, who has engineered records for Ed Sheeran.

    Last August, Victoria shared a video of her son Cruz showing off his musical talent.

    Posh Spice showed the apple does not fall far from the tree as she filmed her son playing the guitar in Croatia.

    Cruz sat on a stone wall by the sea in front of a stunning sunset and played a beautiful rendition of Here Comes The Sun by The Beatles.

    Fans took to the comments to praise Victoria and David’s youngest son for his guitar skills.

    One said: ‘Talented young man there!’ while another echoed: ‘Wow that’s incredible @cruzbeckham’.

    It’s not the first time that Cruz has showed off his musical ability, after he previously shared a video of himself playing piano earlier this year.

    The aspiring singer released festive single If Everyday Was Christmas in 2016 and hinted he could be working on some new music in April as he shared a picture of himself in the recording studio.

    The teenager has learned to play the guitar, piano and drums and even the mandolin, and said his focus is on ‘just making the music I love’.

    And it seems Cruz has always been interested in music as on his 18th birthday his famous parents shared a series of throwback clips of their son singing and performing as a young child.

    Last year Cruz took to the stage to perform in Miami with a rock band and it was at that time he reportedly signed to Tap Music, who previously managed Dua Lipa and a range of other big names including Ellie Goulding and Lana del Ray.

    It comes after Brooklyn shared a sweet tribute to his actress wife Nicola as they celebrated their third engagement anniversary.

    In an Instagram post, the budding chef wrote: ‘3 years ago I asked my best friend to marry me x

    ‘It has been the most amazing 3 years and you are my everything x

    ‘I can’t wait to stay young together and continue to grow together. I wouldn’t be where I am today without you x’.

    He added: ‘You make me a better person and man every single day and I can’t wait to start a family with you at some point x

    ‘Happy 3 year anniversary Nicola Peltz Beckham’. He ended his sweet post with two red heart emojis.

    Alongside the caption, he shared a black and white photo of the pair together, capturing them in a private moment, where they could be seen enjoying an intimate kiss.

    Brooklyn also received a gushing message from his wife Nicola, 28, who wished him a happy engagement anniversary.

    The daughter of billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz, posted: ‘I love you my angel.

    ‘Happy engagement anniversary. I can’t imagine life not next to you. Thank you for being my person’.

    Nicola’s Instagram featured a picture of the cute couple imitating the famous Lady and Tramp scene where they share some spaghetti.

    The lovebirds met at Coachella Music Festival in 2017 but were seeing other people at the time.

    Last year, Brooklyn revealed the couple often discuss whether they think their first child will be a boy or a girl.

    He told Variety: ‘I’m ready to have kids, but I always tell my wife, whenever you want. She thinks we’re going to have a boy first.’

  • Revealed: Nicola Peltz’s terse texts to wedding planners after she went through THREE firms – as her billionaire father (who refers to her as ‘a world famous actress’) sues one firm for not returning his $159,000 deposit

    Revealed: Nicola Peltz’s terse texts to wedding planners after she went through THREE firms – as her billionaire father (who refers to her as ‘a world famous actress’) sues one firm for not returning his $159,000 deposit

    It was a fairytale day fit for the pages of Vogue – with a side of Hollywood family drama.

    But in addition to her wedding dress spat with mother-in-law Victoria Beckham, there was all sorts of trouble brewing behind the scenes of Nicola Peltz’s Palm Beach wedding to Brooklyn Beckham.

    Nicola, the 28-year-old daughter of billionaire investor Nelson Peltz, went through three different sets of wedding planners, two of whom failed to meet the ‘scale’ of her plans.

    There was a last-minute scramble to book musicians, and a ‘day of reckoning’ with one event designer who was reduced to tears by the stress of the project.

    Those new details emerged yesterday – along with texts written by Nicola to one of the planners – in a lawsuit filed by her father, a punchy and tenacious businessman who is vying for a seat on the board of Disney.

    He is suing Nicole Braghin, the tearful party planner, and her partner, Arianna Grijalba, claiming they are refusing to refund him the $159,000 deposit he gave them.

    Peltz and his wife Claudia made contact with Braghin and Grijalba through their firm, Plan Design Events, in March 2022, after getting rid of their first planner, celebrity-adored Preston Bailey.

    It’s unclear why exactly Bailey wasn’t fit for the job.

    In his legal filing, Peltz, 80, says Bailey encountered ‘challenges’ while planning the enormous event, which took place at the family estate in Palm Beach, Florida, on April 9 and reportedly cost around $3.5million.

     ‘The guest list included more than five hundred people, including numerous celebrities, athletes, dignitaries and other influential individuals, who travelled from all around the globe to attend

    Bailey, who planned Ivanka Trump’s wedding to Jared Kushner, did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com’s inquiries about why he stood down.

    The Peltz family had grand plans for the three-day extravaganza for their daughter, who they describe as a ‘world-famous actress’.

    ‘Nicola is a world-famous actress who has starred in blockbuster movies and television shows, including, among others, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Bates Motel and The Last Airbender.

    ‘The guest list included more than five hundred people, including numerous celebrities, athletes, dignitaries and other influential individuals, who travelled from all around the globe to attend,’ the lawsuit reads.

    On March 1, 2022 – six weeks before the wedding – the Peltz family had hoped Braghin and Grijalba would be able to pick up where Bailey left off.

    But nine days later, after forking out a $159,000 deposit, they decided not to move forward with the pair, who they said couldn’t handle the VIP guestlist.

    ‘The celebrity of the wedding couple combined with the anticipated attendance of many high-profile guests required that the wedding planner have the expertise and staffing to plan, coordinate and execute a wedding event of the expected caliber and complexity,’ Nelson’s lawyers say in the lawsuit.

    The issue now at hand is the deposit, which Peltz sued for in Miami this week.

    In the process of trying to get his money back, he has revealed some of the intimate details of the star-studded event.

    He included screenshots of a group text between him, the planners and Nicola.

    In some, Nicola told the planners she was ‘tired of catching’ their repeated mistakes.

    In an exchange about F1 star Lewis Hamilton, who the couple had invited to the bash, Nicola wrote: ‘Lewis Hamilton did NOT RSVP. So explain why his names on the list please.

    ‘We spoke to him. He can’t come so explain why you said he rsvpd yes,’ she demanded in one text.

    The wedding planner tried to explain that she wasn’t familiar with the virtual guest list and needed more time to get to grips with the technology.

    ‘I need time to do this. I’m going to take a moment to learn the app and send you the information, | hate looking like a fool but | hate the most not giving you what you need ASAP. I will be back soon,’ she said.

    Nicola appears to be getting frustrated with the wedding planners as her message - in the blue bubbles - say: 'Lewis Hamilton did NOT RSVP. So explain why his names on the list please. We spoke to him. He can't come so explain why you said he rsvpd yes.'

    The planner then responded - in the gray bubbles -  saying: 'I need time to do this. I'm going to take a moment to learn the app and send you the information, | hate looking like a fool but | hate the most not giving you what you need ASAP. I will be back soon.'

    Nicola, 28, shot back: ‘That’s not true. He didn’t rsvp AT ALL.’

    In his lawsuit, Peltz also makes the suggestion that the wedding planners were abusing alcohol.

    ‘References to alcohol use and possible abuse were not unusual,’ his attorneys wrote in their lawsuit.

    In one message sent around a week before the RSVP conversation, Arianna posted in the chat that she was ‘going for a tequila before her head exploded’, to which Nicola replied: ‘Yes queen!!!!’

    The Peltz family say the pair of wedding planners oversold their abilities, promising them they could handle the event – which was the ‘opportunity of a lifetime’.

    ‘Peltz had presented them with the opportunity of a lifetime – to have their names associated with the wedding of two world-famous celebrities, which would undoubtedly propel PDE into wedding planning stardom.

    ‘In reality, however, it later became clear that PDE viewed this is as an opportunity to take advantage of Peltz by making material misrepresentations on both their website and in person regarding their experience, expertise, and capability of planning the wedding,’ his attorneys wrote.

    On March 4 – what Peltz’s attorneys describe as the ‘day of reckoning’, he called the pair to let them know they’d lost the gig.

    ‘During their nine days of negotiations, PDE failed to book a single new wedding vendor, failed to finalize the terms of any agreements with any of the vendors that had previously been selected by Peltz and his family and failed to attend previously scheduled meetings with Peltz.

    ‘Admitting that they lacked the skills to perform as promised, PDE recommended hiring an additional wedding planner.’

    Two days later, they begged Nelson and his wife Claudia not to spread negative gossip about them, writing in an email: ‘In order to avoid negative gossip, we would appreciate that in the case you are asked to comment on our departure, that your answer reflects the work and good attitude we put into the process, and no professional reason for our detachment.

    ‘We will say: we are under NDA and cannot comment. This keeps us both in a very good place.

    ‘We really wish you and the family a fantastic event… we are sure as you even said that our paths will cross in the future as I truly feel we had a great connection with you and Claudia.’

    The family ended up hiring Michelle Rago of Michelle Rago Destinations, who pulled the event off seamlessly.

    But because of the tight time frame, Peltz claims he had to pay Rago a ‘substantially higher fee than what the Rago Destinations would have charged under normal circumstances’.

    He says he asked for his deposit back from Planned Design Events multiple times in the following weeks, but that they refused to return it.

    Peltz is also suing the pair for legal fees.

  • Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz reveal wedding guests dined on £3 burgers and David pleaded for forgiveness in his emotional speech as they share new details from their Bowie-inspired ceremony in Vogue

    Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz reveal wedding guests dined on £3 burgers and David pleaded for forgiveness in his emotional speech as they share new details from their Bowie-inspired ceremony in Vogue

    The finer details have emerged of last month’s nuptials between Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz as the newlyweds cover the June issue of British Vogue.

    Brooklyn, 23, and Nicola, 27 – who sported matching custom Dior suits on the first night – tied the knot at the actress’s £76million sprawling family estate in a £3million wedding ceremony in April.

    500 guests celebrated the high-profile couple saying, ‘I do’ – and witnessed Brooklyn’s famous father David asking his eldest son for forgiveness after dressing him in a miniature cowboy hat at his 1999 wedding to Victoria.

    Posh and Beck’s wasn’t, however, the wedding that inspired the couple’s own, despite Nicola noting the day’s ‘iconic’ pictures.

    ‘Their wedding was incredible and those pictures are iconic, but the wedding we were most inspired by was Iman and David Bowie,’ the actress admitted.

    Bates Motel star Nicola described her Valentino Haute Couture creation that she wore to marry Brooklyn as ‘a story’ – but unbeknownst to her, her mother, Claudia, had requested the seamstresses to sew in an evil eye to protect her.

    Nicola’s mother also asked that they used baby-blue thread to subtly embroider: ‘Nicola, my heart. You are me, I am you. All my love, all my life, my beautiful girl, inside and out. Love, mom.’

    The emotional bride revealed she was happy she didn’t learn of this finishing touch until after the ceremony as she just ‘burst into tears.’

    Meanwhile, Brooklyn dwelled on the highlight of the whole day – a moment which left him breathless.

    ‘The highlight of the whole wedding for me was seeing her for the first time in that dress. It was the first time ever in my life when I felt like I couldn’t catch my breath,’ he recalled.

    Music was a central part of their big day. British singer Sekou, 17, was joined by a full string orchestra and performed Songbird for Nicola’s walk down the aisle, while Lloyiso, an up-and-coming South African singer, performed Elvis Presley’s Can’t Help Falling in Love for the couple’s first dance.

    Elsewhere, Bette Midler’s Wind Beneath My Wings was chosen for the father-daughter dance.

    The soundtrack during the reception dinner was provided by a jazz quartet and a 12-piece live band, while diners enjoyed a menu prepared by Thierry Isambert Culinary & Event Design.

    Halibut, filet mignon and a vegan osso buco were served, and with Nicola’s favourite fruit being dates, the head table featured centrepieces full of them.

    For those who had worked up an appetite at the afterparty, they were presented with the option of cheeseburgers, fries and chicken nuggets from a Wendy’s food truck – an idea Brooklyn took the credit for.

    In other proceedings, the rabbi accidentally referred to Brooklyn by his father’s name twice, while a reality TV star failed to notice the water feature surrounding the wedding aisle and ended up taking a dip up to his knees.

    Six hours before the evening wrapped up a 5am, a circular stage revolved and Marc Anthony appeared for a live set.

    During this time, Brooklyn invited his mother on stage for a dance and they were joined by David and the couple’s 10-year-old daughter, Harper.

    And the groom’s brothers – Romeo, 19, and 17-year-old Cruz – both hailed themselves as the better sibling before teasing Brooklyn about his loved-up social media posts.

    To conclude the evening after Anthony’s set, a fourth tent of the night opened up, and inside was a pop-up nightclub with Victoria’s friend DJ Fat Tony on the decks.

    The couple enjoyed a whirlwind romance after first going public with their budding relationship in November 2019 when pictures emerged of them hugging before getting engaged in July 2020, just eight months later.

    While their relationship officially began in 2019, they actually first met in 2017 – with Brooklyn revealing during an Instagram Q&A with followers that they were originally introduced at the Coachella music festival in California – where Nicola admitted they didn’t get on at first.

    Of why they settled on 9 April as opposed to a summer wedding in 2021, Nicola said: ‘When the world was in lockdown, we went through different variations of what a wedding would look like. We weren’t sure if we should do a small one earlier and then a big party.

    ‘Eventually we decided we wanted the big wedding as soon as it was possible to do it safely. And we’re so happy we did. It was amazing to be in the presence of so many people we love again.’

    Brooklyn added: ‘We didn’t realise how much we missed that.’

  • Mark Wahlberg is being sued by David Beckham after football ace claimed he was left £8.5m out of pocket from deal to act as an ambassador for the movie star’s fitness brand

    Mark Wahlberg is being sued by David Beckham after football ace claimed he was left £8.5m out of pocket from deal to act as an ambassador for the movie star’s fitness brand

    Hollywood actor and fitness guru Mark Wahlberg is being sued by David Beckham after a deal that saw the footballer promote the star’s fitness brand turned sour – and allegedly left Golden Balls more than £8million out of pocket.

    Becks, 48, is suing the actor and his business associates after the partnership with F45, which saw the midfielder promote his own range of personalised workouts, went south in a row over shares he claimed to have been promised.

    The case has rumbled on for several years after Beckham and golfing legend Greg Norman filed cases against F45 in Californian courts in October 2022 – before a judge reportedly ruled they had to file separate lawsuits.

    Beckham’s firm, David Beckham Ventures Ltd (DBVL) had earlier sought damages of as much as $18.85million (£15.2million) from F45, according to filings made last year.

    But the new case now seeks damages directly from Wahlberg’s Mark Wahlberg Investment Group as well as F45’s founders Adam Gilchrist and Rob Deutsch, according to reports.

    Becks and Wahlberg became friends after the footballer and his family relocated to Los Angeles in 2007 when he signed a deal to join Major League Soccer side LA Galaxy.

    He then agreed to become the global ambassador for Australian brand F45 in November 2020 – with glossy photographs showing him working out using branded equipment at one of its fitness centres.

    He also shared some posts on his Instagram promoting F45 to his millions of followers as part of the deal. The posts have since been deleted.

    As part of the deal, DBVL alleges shares in the company were promised to be shared in early 2022 – but the shares were not divulged until months later, by which time the share price had plummeted from around $12 a share to $3 a share.

    Beckham’s lawyers claim this cost him as much as £8.5million in potential profit as a result of the delay in issuing his firm with the shares promised in the deal.

    The Sun reports that Wahlberg and his co-defendants are seeking to dismiss the allegations of ‘fraudulent conduct’ as baseless and lacking in merit.

    F45’s share price in the US has never recovered from its early price of $16.

    Shares in the firm are now worth just 15 cents, according to the most recent market data, and the company has been plagued with closures at franchises in several countries including its native Australia, the US, the UK and Ireland.

    Wahlberg became a minority shareholder in F45 in 2019 after buying a stake in the company through his investment group.

    Representatives for Beckham and Wahlberg have been contacted for comment.

  • Has Victoria Beckham finally stopped counting calories? Star, 50, says she’s ‘doesn’t care what people think about her looks anymore’ and loves indulging in wine despite her ‘disciplined diet’

    Has Victoria Beckham finally stopped counting calories? Star, 50, says she’s ‘doesn’t care what people think about her looks anymore’ and loves indulging in wine despite her ‘disciplined diet’

    Has Victoria Beckham finally stopped counting calories?

    The former Spice Girl turned fashion designer, 50, has said she has stopped caring about what people think about her looks and loves indulging in wine, despite maintaining a ‘disciplined diet’.

    Victoria can be seen showing off her new confident body image on the front cover of Grazia where the mother-of-four looks incredibly toned while wearing a lace bra under an open blazer.

    But she admits in the accompanying interview that body insecurities once stopped her ‘watching her children play on the beach’.

    She told the publication: ‘I never want to look like I’m complaining, but there were times in the past that I haven’t felt confident enough to sit on a beach and watch my children play.’

    Victoria went onto say negative comments ‘don’t bother her now’ and she has become ‘more accepting’ of the way she looks.

    The Spice Girl singer explained that she is ‘disciplined’ with her diet though and works out regularly but ‘life is too short’ for calorie counting.

    She continued: ‘This is how I look. I’m going to make the best of it, work hard at it. I’m very disciplined with the way that I eat, the way that I work out and the way I work. That’s just who I am.

    ‘But I do like to have a drink and I’m not going to be one these, “Ah, there are too many calories in a glass of wine” types. Whatever. Life’s too short. Let’s have a nice time.’

    Previously Victoria’s husband David has revealed that the mum-of-four has eaten the same dish for 25 years – grilled fish and steamed vegetables.

    And while the sportsman likes to get experimental in the kitchen and sample a wide variety of food, he lamented that the health fanatic will ‘rarely deviate’ from her set menu.

    Footballer David previously revealed that Spice Girl Victoria has only once tried other food – while pregnant with daughter Harper, 10.

    Discussing Victoria’s very specific eating habits on the River Cafe Table 4 podcast, David explained: ‘I get quite emotional about food and wine, when I’m eating something great I want everyone to try it.

    ‘Unfortunately I’m married to someone that has eaten the same thing for the last 25 years. Since I met her she only eats grilled fish, steamed vegetables, she will very rarely deviate from that.’

    ‘The only time she’s probably ever shared something that’s been on my plate was actually when she was pregnant with Harper and it was the most amazing thing.

    ‘It was one of my favourite evenings. I can’t remember what it was but I know she’s not eaten it since.’

    Victoria previously admitted that she won’t eat food cooked in oil, butter or sauces, and she doesn’t eat red meat or dairy.

    Speaking to the same River Cafés Table 4 podcast, the designer said: ‘To most restaurants I’m probably their worst nightmare. I love some steamed vegetables, some balsamic vinegar and then to season myself.

    ‘I like things to be cooked in a very simple way. I don’t like oils or butters or sauces. This is where I sound even more boring in the food department.’

    Victoria also confessed her comfort food was a piece of whole grain toast with salt on it and on her birthday she celebrates with a fruit cake.

    In 1999, just two months after welcoming her son Brooklyn, Victoria was forced to weigh herself live on television.

    The extraordinary incident happened on Chris Evans’s Channel 4 show TFI Friday and Victoria has since slammed the presenter for forcing her to take part.

    Evans told her: ‘A lot of girls want to know, because you look fantastic again, how did you get back to your shape after birth?’

    After replying that she was actually really lazy and hadn’t been to the gym at all, the host wouldn’t let up, demanding: ‘Is your weight back to normal?’

    When she said it was, he persisted: ‘Can I check, do you mind?’ before getting her to step on to some scales and remarking: ‘Eight stone’s not bad at all, is it?’

    The fashion designer has since said: ‘I went on a TV show with Chris Evans many years ago and I’d just had Brooklyn and lost a lot of weight after.

    ‘It happened to my mum after her pregnancies. It doesn’t mean you have an eating disorder. And he made me stand on the scales to be weighed. Can you imagine doing that nowadays?’

    Victoria shares Brooklyn, now 25, Romeo, 21, Cruz, 19, and daughter Harper, 12 – with her husband David, 49.

    The fashion designer stunned on the Grazia cover as she showed off her toned frame in a lace black bralet.

    Victoria completed the look with a chic black suit and wore her hair in loose waves over her shoulders.

    Elsewhere in the interview Victoria revealed that her daughter Harper created a PowerPoint presentation to try and convince her to let her have a perm.

    She told how she created the presentation on the computer and showed it to her and David in the hopes of letting her take a trip to the hairdressers.

    Harper has long straight blonde hair and a perm uses chemicals to make naturally straight hair curly.

    However despite Harper going to the effort of making the PowerPoint – Victoria admitted that her response to the request was ‘absolutely not’.

    Victoria explained her negative response was born from a bad personal experience of having a perm when she was a teenager.

    She shared a reel of some of her more unexpected throwback fashion moments, with the Wheatus song, Teenage Dirtbag, played over the top.

    The trend saw TikTokers showing off their awkward and embarrassing teenage years and among the pictures Victoria shared were her wearing a silver latex boob tube as well as showing off a giant pout with overlined lips.

    She was also sporting an oversized shiny bomber jacket, which were all the rage in the 90s, as well as a giant perm, a sharp contrast to her sleek brunette hairdo.

    ‘I’ve had ‘Porky Posh’, I’ve had ‘Skeletal Posh’: Victoria Beckham slams Chris Evans for forcing her to weigh herself live on ’90s TV hit TFI Friday shortly after she had given birth to Brooklyn

    Known for his lewd behaviour in the Nineties, TV presenter Chris Evans has now been slammed by Victoria Beckham for forcing her to weigh herself on live television shortly after giving birth.

    The extraordinary incident happened on Evans’s Channel 4 show TFI Friday in 1999, two months after the then Spice Girls singer had given birth to Brooklyn, her first child with England captain David Beckham.

    Evans told her: ‘A lot of girls want to know, because you look fantastic again, how did you get back to your shape after birth?’

    After replying that she was actually really lazy and hadn’t been to the gym at all, the host wouldn’t let up, demanding: ‘Is your weight back to normal?’

    The former Posh Spice talks about the media obsession with her body shape in the forthcoming edition of Vogue Australia: ‘I’ve had ‘Porky Posh’, I’ve had ‘Skeletal Posh’. After I had Brooklyn, there was a picture pointing to every single part of my body where I had to focus on losing the weight from.’

    Evans’s behaviour around the time of the incident has been the subject of much interest.

    He was questioned by police in 2016 after a woman alleged that he exposed himself to her on Channel 4’s The Big Breakfast. He denied indecent assault and claimed that he was the victim of a witch-hunt.

    Evans, 56, recently told listeners of his Virgin Radio show that he planned to bring back TFI Friday later this year. Last night, he could not be reached for comment.

    Victoria has come under fire this week from a famous Spanish chef for causing him grief at a celebrity wedding with her ‘complicated’ dinner demands.

    Three Michelin star chef Dani Garcia, 46, claimed the Spice Girl had ‘changed the whole menu’ when former Real Madrid star Sergio Ramos tied the knot with his model and TV presenter wife Pilar Rubio in Spain in 2019.

    Dani recalled how Victoria had coconut water by her ‘all of the time’ as well as bowls of mints, as he branded the habits ‘odd’ in a new interview.

    Touching on what it was like to cook for the fashion designer at the June 2019 wedding banquet near Seville, Dani said on Spanish TV on Monday night: ‘It was very strange. Victoria Beckham changed the whole menu.

    ‘It was very sad because when you make such an effort, not just me and my team but the bride and groom and everyone else to create a unique menu.

    ‘Hers was totally different and just based around vegetables. And then there were some odd things that I’ve never seen in my life.

    ‘She had coconut water, all the time, a bowl of mints and then on the other side hydroalcoholic gel which is very famous now but back then wasn’t because the Covid pandemic hadn’t started.

    ‘It was complicated giving Victoria her menu that night.’

    Disputing Dani’s version of events, a source close to Victoria said:

    ‘This makes a great story but isn’t fair or accurate – the most Victoria would have done when asked about dietary requirements is ask for some plain fish and vegetables.’

    Dani, who was awarded his first Michelin star when he was just 25, made his comments about Victoria on a popular evening show called El Hormiguero, which the likes of Justin Bieber and Will Smith have guested on regularly over the years.

    It is one of Spain’s most watched prime time programmes in its evening slot on the Antena 3 channel with around 2.5 million viewers.

    Victoria’s ‘odd’ eating habits have been the subject of intense scrutiny for years.

    Asked if she fell in love with Neville, who died in 2011 aged 86, she replies: ‘Yes. I am very prone to it. I am very susceptible. It does not happen all the time, and it does not go to enormous extremes, but it is, perhaps, sharing [stage] fright that is so electrifying.’

    So she invited her son, Adam, telling him he would need to wear a suit — and a tie. Adam managed both. But Lipman noticed that his flies were undone. Not just undone, it transpired, but broken.

    ‘I had with me a red, heart-shaped, patent leather handbag,’ added Lipman, explaining that Adam clamped it strategically in position (circled) ‘while I took the gong from Prince Charles’.

    She adds: ‘He was on the Six O’Clock News — all his friends saw him with this heart handbag in his hands.’

  • Dillian Whyte has declared himself ready to ‘step up’ and fight Anthony Joshua in December after Tyson Fury claimed a Battle of Britain with long-term rival Anthony Joshua

    Dillian Whyte has declared himself ready to ‘step up’ and fight Anthony Joshua in December after Tyson Fury claimed a Battle of Britain with long-term rival Anthony Joshua

    On Monday night Fury insisted he will not be fighting heavyweight rival Joshua after his fellow Brit missed a deadline of 5pm on Monday to sign the contract.

    Fury has become frustrated with what he perceives to be a lack of movement from Joshua’s camp and set the take-it-or-leave-it 5pm deadline to the Watford-born fighter, which he claims was not met.

    As a result the eagerly anticipated Battle of Britain dust-up is in jeopardy and Whyte, who lost to Joshua back in 2015, is ready to capitalise.

    Dillian Whyte (left) has thrown his hat in the ring to be Anthony Joshua’s (right) next opponent

    ‘If the Fury fight doesn’t get made with Joshua then me and him can fight in December if he wants,’ Whyte told Sky Sports.

    ‘He’s training for it, he’s ready for it, he’s willing to take Fury on so if that fight doesn’t get made I’ll step up and take the fight with Joshua. That would be a great fight.’

    Knowing the sport inside out, Whyte is well aware that there is a lot of posturing on both sides of the Fury and Joshua camps.

    Fury is being, in Whyte’s opinion, ‘very silly’ with his consistent uploads on social media and the Gypsy King’s latest video, released on Monday, appeared to extinguish hopes of a fight with Joshua.

    Fury has said he will be fighting on December 3, and is now set to fight an alternative opponent

    Joshua suffered his second-successive loss against Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia last month

    ‘Well guys, it’s official: D-Day has come and gone,’ Fury said. ‘It’s gone past 5 o’clock [on] Monday, no contract has been signed. It’s officially over for Joshua. He is now out in the cold with the wolfpack. Forget about it.

    ‘Idiot, coward, s*** house bodybuilder. Always knew it, always knew you didn’t have the minerals to fight the Gypsy King.

    ‘Regardless of what the f*** you say now, I don’t really care. Good luck with your career and your life. End of.’

    Joshua has appeared calm in the face of Fury’s demands on social media, and insisted on Sunday that he would sign for the huge domestic clash.

    ‘I’ve been signing contracts for years,’ said Joshua. ‘It ain’t in my hands, it’s with a legal team. That’s why you hire lawyers. If you know the history of boxing, you make sure you get your legal terms right. That’s why you’ve got good management and good lawyers.

    ‘So, of course, I’m going to sign the contract. It’s just with some lawyers at the minute.’

    Asked if he really believes there is life in negotiations to get Fury versus Joshua back on the table, Whyte added: ‘I think it can happen but Fury is putting a lot of pressure on, using social media which has been a bit silly really.

    ‘These big fights take time because there’s a lot that goes into it. The team puts a lot into it, there’s a lot of commercial things and protecting your best interests and protecting your rights and obviously these guys are on two different TV stations so there’s a lot that goes into it.’

    It would be in Whyte’s interests for Fury and Joshua to continue butting heads as he targets his own mega-fight in the heavyweight division.

    The ‘Body Snatcher’ first shared the ring with British rival Joshua in December 2015 when Joshua was awarded victory by technical knockout (TKO).

    Whyte, too, has experience against Fury having faced the Gypsy King, and WBC heavyweight champion, back in April. He lost by TKO in round six.

    Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury Share Similar Perspective on the Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul Fight.

    Although heavyweight rivals Joshua and Fury believe Paul and Tyson’s megafight this summer will benefit boxing, boxing purists have criticized the bout.

    Both Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua think that Mike Tyson vs. Jake Paul will only fight good for boxing.

    In one of the biggest and most contentious fights of the year, “Iron Mike” will return to the ring on July 20 at the Dallas Cowboys stadium against YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul. The fight is scheduled to take place as an exhibition, but Tyson has denied rumors that he and Paul will be donning headgear and eighteen-ounce gloves.

    Since switching to boxing full-time, Paul has faced harsh criticism for taking on former MMA fighters as well as sportsmen from other sports. As Joshua stated on The Jonathan Ross Show, “I personally think it’s really good,” he believes that influencers like Paul entering the ring can only help boxing gain more attention.

    Boxing purists, in my opinion, take offense at it because they wonder “why these people are demeaning our sport?” However, I believe that person is the reason why so many people get involved in boxing, which is good for everyone. Everybody who watches is helpful. Mike Tyson is now older. I hope he emerges unscathed. Jake Paul’s youth is the only reason, in my opinion.”

    Paul suffered his sole loss to date at the hands of his brother Tommy in their fight last year, thus Fury is well-known in the influencer boxing community. The heavyweight champion recently spoke with The Stomping Ground and repeated what Joshua said on Paul vs. Tyson. “It would be amazing for the boys to receive payment and perform together. I’m at a loss for anything not to enjoy,” he remarked.

    “Oh, okay, [Tyson] is 57 years old, but he’s a former undisputed world heavyweight king, and Paul plays computers for a living and he’s come to boxing about a year ago. So, pretty even match. “I think it’s fantastic for boxing. You’ve got a legend in Mike Tyson. You’ve got a YouTube boxer, he has come into the game and blew it up and he’s got millions of followers and millions of views and millions of eyes.

    “Good, bad or indifferent. Some people love him, some people hate him. I think it’s a really good spectacle for boxing. Brings a lot of people to the game. Listen, who am I to say, ‘Oh, Mike Tyson shouldn’t be boxing or Jake Paul shouldn’t be boxing, good luck to ’em. They’re both gonna make what I call a s*** ton of money out of it. So, isn’t that what it’s about? A great stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys.”
