Strictly host Josh Widdicombe makes cheeky Brooklyn Beckham dig over son’s VIP treatment

New Strictly Come Dancing host Josh Widdicombe has joked he fears he’s raising a nepo baby like Brooklyn Beckham after his five-year-old son was offered some free gifts

Strictly Come Dancing host Josh Widdicombe has joked he fears his young son could end up like nepo baby Brooklyn Beckham after being offered a VIP experience.

The comedian, 43, joked that his five-year-old is being “spoiled” after courier firm DHL offered to make his dreams come true and give him a ride in one of their vans as well as a bunch of toys.

Speaking on his podcast Parenting Hell Josh said: “DHL have been in touch and they’ve offered for them to deliver some DHL toys in a DHL van that he can then have a look around.

“The thing is and I can’t believe that I am saying this about some DHL toys and a DHL van – You worry about him being spoiled by getting all of his dreams come true when he’s five”.

Fellow podcaster and comedian Rob Beckett laughed: “I mean nepotism is a big thing and this boys got to realise that not every day is like this!”

Referring to Brooklyn, 27, distancing himself from the Beckham clang Josh added: “Exactly! And then before you know it you’ve got a Brooklyn Beckham situation on your hands!”

Later in the podcast the Last Leg presenter also shared fears that hotel staff wrongly believed he rented a room for some X-Rated fun after he booked it for a few hours to record their podcast whilst he’s away from home on tour.

He said: “I had to go ‘I’m using it this morning’ but then I am like, ‘It sounds like I am s****ing’ so then I am like ‘for work’ but then I go ‘are you allowed to use it for work?’

“Do you know what I mean? I am panicking.

“She definitely thinks I am s****ing!”

Josh will present the new series of Strictly later this year alongside TV favourite Emma Willis and professional dancer Johannes Radebe.
