Tommy Hilfiger falls at Bezos wedding, lip reader discloses Tom Brady’s amused response

Tommy Hilfiger nearly took a tumble during Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding extravaganza in Venice on Friday.

The 74-year-old fashion designer stumbled as he attempted to board a water taxi, nearly plunging into the water in front of the newlyweds and their elite wedding attendees.

Video footage captures him walking just ahead of quarterback Tom Brady, setting the stage for a potentially awkward encounter at what many have hailed as the ‘wedding of the century.’

While chatting with those around him, Hilfiger stumbled and nearly fell face first into the canal.

Lip reader Nicola Hickling disclosed the brief dialogue that took place between Hilfiger and Brady before and after the mishap occurred as Brady stood in line behind him.

The lip reader said that Hilfiger turned back to Brady, who was directly behind him in the queue, and allegedly told him: ‘You can go after me.’

While the line seemed to be moving slowly as the slew of wedding guests dressed in black tie apparel were carefully stepping into each water taxi, some celebrities appeared impatient and started striking up conversations with each other. 

The lip reader said that Hilfiger looked to his side and asked: ‘Why do we need to stand here?’

Then, he trips with the long step down, and an assistant helped steady the designer who then laughs off the misstep and continues on his way.

He appeared to have lost his footing more than once but shrugged it off and threw up a peace sign to onlookers.

After Hilfiger was steady on his feet again, Brady appeared to make a joke and, while smiling, said to the fashion designer: ‘Are you drunk?’ 

Hilfiger seemingly cracked a joke back before Brady allegedly added: ‘Can you just get on?’

He was then seen waving to fans standing on the other side of the canal as they witnessed the celebrity migration to a different location for the weekend-long festivities. 

This comes as Hilfiger and his wife Dee Ocleppo joined the slew of celebrities at gathering of the world’s elites for the billionaire’s nuptials to the former journalist.

In the clip, the fashion designer showed off his own style in green velvet tuxedo blazer paired with a classic, white button-down and a black, satin bowtie. 

He was also carrying a plastic water bottle in his hand when the unsteady moment occurred. 

Bezos and Sanchez tied the knot on Friday in Venice, Italy after a two-year engagement. 

The Amazon billionaire and his bride are said to have invited 200 people to their three-day Italian wedding. 

Along with Kim Kardashian, Ellie Goulding, Khloe Kardashian and Ivanka Trump, the star-studded guest list includes Leonardo DiCaprio, Mick Jagger, Oprah Winfrey, Orlando Bloom — in addition to Hilfiger and Brady.  

Earlier this week, a copy of the couple’s invite was leaked with one very specific request made on behalf of the couple.

Bezos is thought to be spending roughly $15 to $20 million on his and Sanchez’s Italian nuptials

They’ve asked guests not to buy them any presents and told them they’ll be making donations to multiple charities working to stop Venice from sinking on attendees’ behalf instead. 

Bezos is thought to be spending roughly $15 to $20 million on his and Sanchez’s Italian nuptials. 

On Thursday, a source closely connected to the organization of the week’s events revealed to DailyMail.com exclusively that Bezos and Sanchez are already legally married. 

The source also claimed that Jeff had personally confirmed that he and Lauren are already legally married, and that they had also signed a pre-nuptial agreement to protect his $244 billion fortune.
