Definitely not the first dance. After dinner, Brooklyn and Nicola did a first dance to Only Fools Rush In then they did a second dance and then Nicola did a dance with her father. Marc Anthony didn’t go on stage until much much later in the evening when everyone was dancing. It could be that Brooklyn and Nicola expected MA to invite Nicola up for the first dance of his performance and they got upset when he invited Nicola. Also by this point in the evening the dancing wasn’t formal as it was all the guests on the dance floor. So maybe the first MA song being a slow dance seemed wrong for Brooklyn and his mom. Seems crossed wires as I doubt MA intentionally tried to ruin their wedding. But it wasn’t the actual first dance. |

+1. Marc Anthony is a dude. It wasn't the first dance, it was much later in the evening. Probably everyone had been boozing and he put his foot in his mouth. Everyone can see Nicola is beautiful (she's had work done, but she's attractive for people who like that look). For her to be insecure about her 50+ year old MIL is absolutely ridiculous. |
It was one of many first dances which makes them seem even more ridiculous. |
| According to the vogue article from shortly after the wedding, Nicola and Brooklyn did their first dances to I can’t help falling in love with you and only fools rush in (very generic love songs!) following the dinner. And that Marc Anthony came on stage at 11pm. |

David and Victoria should follow the British Royal family’s approach: say nothing, carry on, let the toddlers tantrum.
Maybe the BRF was feeding info secretly to the press (?) but I think they won the PR war by publicly staying quiet. PR firms should advise their clients to NOT do exactly what this poor kid (and Harry) did. |
At least this "kid" is in his 20s. Harry is full grown man suffering from arrested development. Plenty of other chances for Brooklyn to have a few more tries at a "first dance" in his next wedding(s). How many does one need at one reception? |
Please stop with this. Harry served in the British Army for ten years. He wasn't always a layabout a la Brooklyn. |

I think Brooklyn is more like Rob Kardashian than Prince Harry. Kris Kardashian manages all of the kids' careers/business opportunities and sets them up for success, but Rob didn't want that public life.
Sounds like Victoria was trying to do the same with her kids. |
Stop it. Harry is an unemployed man child. Like Brooklyn. |
They are not real problems to you or the average person. It's obvious an issue to the people in question. |
Yes. And that is exactly why the whole thing is so ridiculous and tone deaf. Entertaining, but nobody thinks they’re victims. |
So why are they appealing to the average person? Nobody asked for this. |
| As a DIL who struggled to adapt and conform to my (then) DH's family culture, I can understand where Nicola is coming from. It can be difficult especially coming from a pretty different family. That said, as I matured I realized I was being difficult myself and actually fairly bratty. Having kids helped me see that. |
Nobody asked Victoria to enter a PR war with them either. Dont be obtuse. Brooklyn was tired of the reconciliation narrative that was coming so he went to IG. Something he should've done a long time ago |
