Cross says the relationship occurred in her early twenties when she had just started modeling. “I came from living on a farm to moving to London and being thrown into a relationship like that,” she says. “It’s hard to know what’s best to do in that situation. No one really knew, and I didn’t, really. It wasn’t something that I was super-open about, so advice from outside was hard to take.”
Ultimately, Cross says she hasn’t seen Brooklyn “in a while,” but has run into his brothers at Fashion Week events. “We move in similar circles, so it’s hard not to run into people,” she says.
January 23, 2026: Brooklyn and Nicola’s wedding DJ speaks out on ITV’s This Morning. Confirming a previous People report from May, DJ Fat Tony shared that Marc Anthony called Victoria Beckham to the stage to dance with her son by referring her as “the most beautiful woman in the room,” causing Nicola to run out crying and leaving Brooklyn feeling “devastated because he thought he was gonna do his first dance with his wife.”
He then said Marc Anthony encouraged Brooklyn to put his hands on his mom’s hip because it was a “Latin thing.”
“I’ve done an awful lot of Beckham parties in the past, and they’re a very dancey, close-knit family,” he continued. “They love to dance. So, what we deem as ‘inappropriate’ is not how Brooklyn feels. It’s all about how Brooklyn feels. If he felt it was inappropriate and awkward, then it was inappropriate and awkward.”
Prior to sharing that specific story, DJ Fat Tony clarified the wedding festivities ran for three days, adding, “I did the welcome party, then I did the wedding and a brunch on the Sunday, which was the most awkward part of it all because everything that had gone on on the actual wedding night was discussed among the guests the next morning.”
January 20, 2026: During his first public appearance post–Brooklyn-gate, David Beckham says his kids have “made mistakes” on social media. But before you go reading too much into this, it was during a discussion about the pros and cons of social media in general, and he was chatting to CNBC, not TMZ.
“The bad we’ve talked about with what kids can access these days, it can be dangerous. But what I have found personally, especially with my kids as well, use it for the right reasons,” he said, per People. “And I have tried to do the same, I’ve tried to do the same with my children, to educate them. They make mistakes, but children are allowed to make mistakes. That is how they learn. That is what I try to teach my kids…. You sometimes have to let them make those mistakes as well.”
Meanwhile, Alana Hadid—whose younger brother Anwar once dated Nicola—threw a bit of shade at the heiress in the comment section of a meme account’s post about the drama. Another Instagram user wrote, “Ending an eight paragraph rant about his family’s dirty laundry with “all we want is privacy” is all I need to know,” to which Alana replied, “Right and that girl doesn’t want privacy she’s been trying to be famous for a decade 😂😂😂😂.”
