Drama. That’s what happened at Miami hotspot Gekko on Friday night. While some diners were celebrating victories, others were celebrating birthdays. In the end, there was chaos, and one source claims there was also too much alcohol.
The diners celebrating victories included David and Victoria Beckham and their daughter, Harper Beckham. They were there with soccer players Sergio Busquets and Lionel Messi. Messi’s wife Antonela Roccuzzo was there as well. They didn’t cause the chaos exactly. They were there to celebrate Inter Miami’s 4 – 0 Leagues Cup win in the soccer game against Charlotte FC.
There was another family there celebrating a birthday, a 21st birthday. One of the members of that party was allegedly taking a lot of pictures. One source claims the pictures were of family members and his daughter on her birthday. Another source claims the patron was “aggressive” when he was told to stop taking pictures. It seems that security thought he was trying to take a selfie with Messi.
According to Page Six, a source from Gekko claims, “An intoxicated guest was overbearingly taking photos of fellow guests and was asked to stop. He continued taking photos and was calmly escorted off property.” Here comes the drama. The source adds, “The guest then returned in an aggressive attempt to rush the door and re-enter the restaurant, to which he was prevented from entering.”
This source’s story doesn’t exactly match up with a source who spoke to the Daily Mail. This source is a friend of the man who was taking pictures. He claims that security “jumped at us; they kicked me out and punched me in the face.” He added, “Just because my homeboy was trying to take a picture with his wife, not with Beckham or Messi, nothing. It was a family thing.”
In video footage from the event, a woman is screaming, “He’s a family man, celebrating his daughter’s 21st birthday.”
Meanwhile, another woman yelled, “How dare you! Where’s the manager?” Then she exclaimed, “Someone needs to get fired.”
Photos of the victim show him pretty beat up with a bloody face.
How did the Beckhams and Messis react? Victoria and Harper were seen fleeing the restaurant and leaving in a black SUV. Victoria later posted about the visit to Gekko. She mentioned the celebration, but she didn’t mention the drama. Instead, she wrote, “I LOVE MIAMI!!! So much fun last night!! Kisses.”
Do you think security caused the drama, or do you think the dad celebrating his daughter’s birthday caused the drama?
