One of the wedding planners behind Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz's nuptials has revealed what he witnessed behind the scenes.
Preston Bailey helped the couple put together the lavish ceremony in 2022, which has been thrust back into the spotlight amid the bitter feud between the Beckham family.
David and Victoria's firstborn son, 26, shared a shocking statement last week that accused his parents of 'controlling' him, 'trying to ruin' his relationship and spoiling his big day.
Brooklyn also claimed he was left 'humiliated' by his mother after she hijacked his first dance with Nicola, alleging that she danced on him in an 'inappropriate' fashion in front of their 500 guests.

In wake of this dramatic development, his ex-partners have been putting their two pence in, as well as celebrities such as Katherine Ryan.
One of the people who made it onto the coveted guest list for the Beckham-Peltz wedding, DJ Fat Tony, then shared his recollection of what happened, insisting there was 'no slut dropping' or 'Spice Girl action' from Victoria.
Now, one of the people involved with organising the star-studded bash at the Peltz's estate in Palm Beach, Florida, has shared his thoughts on the famous family's fallout.
Renowned party planner Preston Bailey - who has worked with celebs such as Lebron James, Serena Williams, Mariah Carey and Uma Thurman - was initially hired by the bride and groom in April 2021.
He had to step away from the project 11 months later due to his hectic schedule, but did spend several months ironing out the details with Brooklyn and Nicola ahead of their big day.
According to Bailey, at the time, he didn't detect any form of 'tension' brewing between the Brit and his parents, despite reports claiming that this is when the trouble really started.
As a result, the wedding planner said it 'surprises' him that the aspiring chef is 'taking this stand' against David and Victoria.
Speaking of his experience of working with Brooklyn, Bailey told Page Six: "He was just a nice, regular person who would say hello and chit chat.
"While we were planning, clearly as far as the details for the design, he was very much involved. I have always thought of him as a gentle, decent guy. There was never any tension."
Given his line of work and client list, Bailey has no doubt worked with a ton of bridezillas throughout his career.
But according to the floral designer, Peltz wasn't one of them, despite a host of reports suggesting otherwise.
From what he saw of her and Brooklyn, Bailey reckons that rumours suggesting the actress, 31, wears the trousers in the relationship have been blown out of proportion.
"I don’t remember her being bossy," Bailey added. "I remember a lot of affection between them. Whatever design was done was presented to Nicola, but it was important for her to have Brooklyn approve it.
"She wasn’t going to do anything without his approval."
In February 2023, Peltz's dad Nelson filed a lawsuit against two other wedding planners who briefly took on the role after those initially hired for the gig stepped down.
Nicole Braghin and Arianna Grijalba were brought in just six weeks before the wedding, but were let go after just nine days - and Nelson claims he didn't get his $159,000 deposit back.
The wedding planners filed a countersuit against the billionaire, claiming a breach of contract. Michelle Rago eventually ended up taking on the task of planning the wedding.
