The 57-year-old performed at Brooklyn and Nicola Peltz Beckham's wedding reception in 2022, and is a close friend of the wider family.
But Brooklyn recently said the way the couple's first dance was handled at the wedding left him feeling "uncomfortable and humiliated", after Anthony reportedly called for him to dance with his mother instead of his wife.
