A source said: “David’s speech went on for about five minutes and he looked to shed a tear at one point.
“He was talking about when Brooklyn was born and how he wanted to protect him.
“He said he was sleeping on the hospital floor, holding the door shut because he didn’t want to let anyone get in.
“David got a lump in his throat and had to stop and take a breather to regain his composure, but it was a very sweet speech.”
He also is said to have told Nicola at the wedding pre-party on Friday: “We love you so much. We are excited that you’ll be part of the family.”
