Victoria Beckham Removes Daughter, 12, From Miami Hotspot Before Fight Breaks Out Between Diner and Security Over 'Selfie' Incident With Lionel Messi
Victoria Beckham rushed daughter Harper out of a Miami restaurant where a diner was bloodied over accusations he was trying to photograph soccer star Lionel Messi and his wife, Antonela Roccuzzo, RadarOnline.com has learned.
Security was under the impression that he was photographing the celebrities, which he denied. The man said they forced him to leave and attacked him outside of the venue.
"They jumped at us, they kicked me out and punched me in the face," the diner claimed. "Just because my homeboy was trying to take a picture with his wife, not with Beckham or Messi, nothing. It was a family thing."
"He's a family man, celebrating his daughter's 21st birthday," one woman yelled out in his defense in a shocking video.
The Spice Girls sensation was seen embracing her 12-year-old before putting Harper in a security-driven SUV as the incident unfolded around 10 PM on Friday, Daily Mail reported.
Messi and Antonela were dining at the Japanese steakhouse co-owned by Bad Bunny as well as fellow Inter Miami stars Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba and the Beckhams.
Antonela had posed for pictures with her footballer husband and Victoria in celebration of a 4-0 victory over Charlotte FC in the Leagues Cup before the scuffle took place.
As for how the spat transpired, the unidentified man claimed that when he tried to take a photo with his family, he was abruptly thrown out of the local hotspot and struck in the face, explaining that Messi and his wife were in another area.
