Victoria Beckham grabs daughter Harper as they escape bloody fight at restaurant

Victoria Beckham had to rush her daughter Harper out of Bad Bunny's restaurant after a violent fight erupted, leaving a man dripping in blood.

The mum-of-four, 49, had been dining at swanky eatery Gekko in Miami with Harper, husband David, footballer Lionel Messi and his wife, Antonela. But the party had to be broken up when a bloody brawl broke out after security staff at the Japanese steakhouse reacted to a guest they thought was trying to take photographs of World Cup winner, Lionel.

Video footage shows Victoria quickly escorting Harper, 12, out of the restaurant away from the violence, heading for a security-driven SUV, which was waiting at the scene at around 10pm on Friday when the incident happened.

In the footage obtained by MailOnline, a bloodied man angrily shows his injuries outside the restaurant. It's been reported the security staff mistakenly thought his friend was trying to take photos of the famous table before kicking him out and allegedly assaulting him outside.

Explaining his side of events, the guest insisted his pal was simply trying to take a photo of his own family. With blood pouring down his face and his right eye heavily bruised, he fumed: "We were trying to take a picture here, then they jumped at us, they kicked me out and punched me in the face. 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 added.

Referring to the battered man, a woman can be heard yelling to the cameraman: "He's a family man, celebrating his daughter's 21st birthday." Another woman shouts at the bouncer: "How dare you! Where's the manager? How f****** dare you! That's f****** crazy! Someone needs to get fired."

Before the fracas, Bad Bunny can be seen entering and exiting the celebrity restaurant, getting stopped by fans seeking selfies with the Puerto Rican rapper. Social media posts shared from the same night show Messi and Antonela dancing at the venue.

Lionel and David headed out to party in Miami on Friday night to celebrate a 4-0 victory over Charlotte FC in the Leagues Cup. Their wives, Antonela and Victoria, joined in with the festivities along with Miami's two other soccer stars, Sergio Busquets and Jordi Alba. Messi scored his eighth Miami goal in just his fifth appearance for his new team after leaving French club, PSG, in June.
