Gordon Ramsay is hitting back at claims Victoria Beckham danced “inappropriately” with her son Brooklyn Peltz Beckham at his wedding to Nicola Peltz Beckham.
Speaking to The Sun on Friday, February 13, the celebrity chef, who attended the nuptials, hosed down Brooklyn’s public allegations against his mother.
“We were there at the wedding. There was nothing salacious, nothing inappropriate, everyone was having fun,” Ramsay, 59, told the outlet.
When asked directly whether Victoria, 51, was grinding on Brooklyn, 26, during the wedding dance, Ramsay responded, “No! Nothing of the sort.” He insisted it was all just innocent “fun.”
During the interview, Ramsay also confirmed “Victoria is upset – and [has] every right to be upset” about Brooklyn’s bad blood with herself and his dad David.
In a scathing statement posted via his Instagram Stories on January 19, Brooklyn claimed, among other things, that Victoria had danced “inappropriately” with him.
“My mum hijacked my first dance with my wife, which had been planned weeks in advance to a romantic love song,” he alleged in the posts. “In front of our 500 wedding guests, Marc Anthony called me to the stage, where in the schedule my romantic dance with my wife but instead my mum was waiting to dance with me instead. She danced very inappropriately on me in front of everyone. I’ve never felt more uncomfortable or humiliated in my entire life. We wanted to renew our vows so we could create new memories of our wedding day that bring us joy and happiness, not anxiety and embarrassment.”

The post caused a stir and was the catalyst behind a huge number of memes being made to mock Victoria over the situation.
Ramsay claimed that he hadn’t seen the memes but encouraged Brooklyn to look inward to sort out the relationship with his parents – and appeared to take a subtle jab at the Peltz family.
“Victoria’s got a great sense of humor. She can bat that sh*t away in a heartbeat,” Ramsay continued. “I just want Brooklyn to just a moment to yourself and just remember, you’re half mom and half dad and you’re an amazing man but boy, they’ve done more for you than anyone will do in your entire life. [Including] any father-in-law, let me tell you.”
In his Instagram post, Brooklyn said he had no intention of reconnecting with his family, which also includes brothers Romeo, 23, and Cruz, 20, and sister Harper, 14.
“I do not want to reconcile with my family,” he wrote. “I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
For his part, Ramsay told The Sun that he believed Brooklyn would eventually reconcile with his family.
“It’s hard when you enter that age in life when you join with another family. There’s a different dynamic going on and so there was bound to be some form of clash, he said. “But the relationship with David and Brooklyn is very, very deep and I know how much David loves Brooklyn and I think it’s only going to be a matter of time before Brooklyn takes a good look at himself and understands just what they mean.”
Ramsay continued: “It’s easy to get up on that rollercoaster isn’t it, and get carried away but it will come back because I know. I know how many times they’ve pulled him out of the sh*t. I know how many times they’ve absolutely stood by him through thick and thin. David’s an amazing dad and he will absolutely get that back online. Time. Time’s going to be the best healer.”
