Marc Anthony pushes back on Beckham family drama, says reports are 'hardly the truth'

Marc Anthony is a longtime friend of the Beckham family

Marc Anthony is pushing back against growing speculation surrounding alleged tension within the Beckham family, saying much of what’s being reported publicly does not reflect reality. The singer, who has been close friends with David and Victoria Beckham for decades, addressed the situation by calling the narrative circulating online “hardly the truth.”

Speaking about the family drama, Anthony made it clear he does not agree with how events are being portrayed. “I think it’s extremely unfortunate,” he said, adding that people should be careful about accepting everything they read or see. “What’s being said is hardly the truth.”

Anthony, who is also the godfather to the Beckhams’ son Cruz, emphasized his deep personal connection to the family and described them in warm terms. “They are a wonderful, wonderful family,” he said, expressing disappointment that private family matters have spilled into the public eye.

While he avoided addressing specific allegations — including claims tied to Brooklyn Beckham, his marriage to Nicola Peltz Beckham, and lingering fallout from their 2022 wedding — Anthony stressed that there is far more nuance behind the scenes than what headlines suggest. “I have nothing to say about what’s happening within the family,” he added, reinforcing that his loyalty remains with the people he knows personally rather than the speculation surrounding them.

The singer’s comments arrive amid renewed attention on the Beckhams following public statements that reignited rumors of a rift. Conflicting accounts of past events have fueled intense media coverage, but Anthony’s remarks offer a rare voice from inside the family’s inner circle pushing back on the dominant narrative.

As the situation continues to unfold in the public sphere, Anthony’s words serve as a reminder that, even for one of the world’s most famous families, the full story is rarely as simple as it appears.
