DJ Fat Tony has weighed in on the most explosive drama of the year (so far!), the Peltz-Beckham family wedding debacle.

Speaking on ITV’s This Morning on Friday (23 January), DJ Fat Tony, whose real name is Tony Marnoch, shared his first-person eyewitness account of what exactly went down on the fateful night of Brooklyn Beckham’s much-discussed wedding.

In a series of Instagram story posts, Brooklyn claimed his mother, Victoria Beckham, “humiliated” him when she “danced very inappropriately on me.”

Speaking on This Morning, Fat Tony said “the whole situation was really awkward for everyone in the room,” as he recounted the events.

“There was no s**tdropping, there was no black cat PVC catsuits, there was no Spice Girl action.”

Pop star Marc Anthony performed at the wedding reception and Fat Tony claimed that he called Brooklyn to the stage.

“The next minute, everyone was expecting it to be Nicola to go up and do the first dance,” he said. Anthony then asked for “the most beautiful woman in the room” to join Brooklyn, then said Victoria’s name, instead of Brooklyn’s partner, Nicola.

‘The whole situation was very awkward.’

“Victoria is by the stage, she goes onto the stage, and of course at that point Brooklyn is suddenly, literally, devastated because he thought he was going to do his first dance with his wife.

“Then Nicola leaves the room crying her eyes out. Brooklyn is stuck there on stage.

“And then they do this dance and Marc Anthony’s going, ‘Put your hands on your mother’s hips’. It was a Latin thing.

“The whole situation was very awkward for everyone in the room.”

Fat Tony was asked if the actions were “inappropriate.” He responded: “If [Brooklyn] feels that it was inappropriate and awkward, it was inappropriate and awkward.”

Fat Tony also furthered that the newlyweds were “devastated” but the dance “is a very small part of a bigger problem” for the Beckham family.

A former Space Force colonel fired by the Trump administration over her gender identity has raised over $100,000 less than 24 hours after launching a political campaign.

Retired astronautical engineer Bree Fram’s campaign to represent Virginia in US Congress has already skyrocketed into outer space less than a week after she made the announcement.

The 46-year-old Colonel announced her intention to run for the Congressional seat in a Tuesday (20 January) Instagram clip.

“Too many Americans are afraid of what their own government is doing to them, instead of being confident in what it can do for them,” she said in the clip. “That’s why I’m running for Congress.”

Following the announcement, Fram launched a 24-hour fundraising haul aimed at raising funds for her campaign. In less than a day, it received more than $102,000 from at least 400 donors across 46 states, according to MetroWeekly.

She thanked donors in a social media post after the fundraising haul closed, saying they had helped to “turn the page on chaos, vengeance, and attacks on personal freedom.”

Fram was infamously removed from her position as an active duty officer of the United States Space Force in June 2025 after the US government enforced its ban on transgender military personnel. She is believed to be the highest ranking trans officer to have been fired under the executive order.

During her 23 years of service, Fram was deployed in Iraq and Qatar as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom, eventually serving in both the US Air Force and Space Force. She came out as trans in 2016 and later became the first trans woman to reach the rank of Colonel.

She was among thousands of personnel ejected from their positions in the United States armed forces over the executive order, despite Trump administration officials struggling to justify the action.

Following her campaign announcement, Fram told InsideNoVa that she was not running “on a platform that is about identity” but rather on the basis of defending Americans’ “basic rights, particularly freedom of speech [and] freedom of assembly.”

“This is the calling”

The mother of two emphasised the need to restore democratic freedoms dismantled by the Trump administration in an interview with The Advocate, promising not to back down from the fight.

“No matter what rock we might look under, you can find something this administration has [done] that is worthy of not only an investigation but being held accountable,” she said, accusing Donald Trump of failing to “faithfully execute the laws of the United States and to fulfil his oath to support and defend the Constitution.”

Her focus is on ensuring Congress focuses on protecting Americans by investing in issues like social security, disease prevention, housing, and more.

“This is the calling,” she said. “If we don’t stand up now, we might not have anything to stand up for in the future.”
