He was walking just ahead of quarterback Tom Brady, who was also attending the event, which many have called the “wedding of the century.” As Hilfiger chatted with people nearby, he tripped and nearly fell into the canal.

Lip reader Nicola Hickling told Daily Mail that at the time of the incident, Hilfiger looked back at Brady, who was standing behind him, and said, “You can go after me.”

The line was moving slowly as the guests—dressed in black-tie outfits—boarded the water taxis one at a time. Some people started chatting while waiting. Hickling said Hilfiger looked to the side and asked, “Why do we need to stand here?”

As he tried to take a long step into the boat, he lost his balance. Someone nearby quickly helped steady him. Hilfiger laughed it off, stayed calm, and kept moving. He seemed to trip more than once but brushed it off, smiled, and threw a peace sign to onlookers.

Once he was steady again, Brady reportedly joked with him and asked, “Are you drunk?” Hilfiger made a joke in return, and Brady allegedly followed up with, “Can you just get on?”

In the video, Hilfiger wore a green velvet tuxedo jacket, white dress shirt, and black satin bow tie. He was also holding a plastic water bottle when he nearly slipped.
