LEWIS HAMILTON has unwittingly found himself at the centre of a legal battle following Brooklyn Beckham’s wedding.
The F1 star had been invited to the £3million marriage ceremony between David Beckham’s son Brooklyn and billionaire heiress Nicola Peltz in April last year.
The oblivious 38-year-old was unable to attend, but this did not stop his name from being entangled in a £132,000 lawsuit between Nicola and the wedding planners.
The Daily Mail revealed how planners Nicole Braghin and Arianna Grijalba had left Hamilton’s name on the guest list despite the Brit failing to RSVP them.
A leaked conversation between the parties saw Nicola write: “Lewis Hamilton did NOT RSVP.
“So explain why his name is on the list please?

“We spoke to him. He can’t come so explain why you said he RSVP’d yes.”
The planners tried to explain how a technological error was the cause of the issue, before Nicola replied: “That’s not true. He didn’t rsvp AT ALL.”
She later added: “I’m tired of catching mistakes on this rsvp list honestly.
“When will I get a straight answer on this.”

After months of turmoil Nicola and Beckham are looking to get their deposit back from the company.
Michelle Rago was eventually finalised as their planner in a last minute change.
Hamilton is good friends with David Beckham and Co, with the ex-Manchester United star visiting the Mercedes garage at last season’s Miami Grand Prix.
In the meantime, Hamilton will be hoping to get back to winning ways in the Australian Grand Prix, having not won at the circuit since 2015.
