David Beckham’s son new face of Burberry

By Alexandra Heilbron on December 20, 2012 | 15 Comments


Romeo Beckham, 10, has made his debut as the new face of Burberry. He stars in the Burberry Spring/Summer 2013 campaign wearing their signature beige trench coat. As the son of Victoria, pop star-turned-fashion designer, and David, a soccer star/underwear model, Romeo is the perfect choice, don’t you think? Or is this a case of nepotism that got out of hand? Tell us what you think in the comments below.

    Jacket looks a bit big on him…I would wait until he grew up a little bit more.

    Like they really need the money!

    I hope he is happy doing it and hasn’t been pushed into modelling like some youngsters who have lost their childhood that way. I would rather see him training for Manchester United, as his father did!

    He was probably pushed into it. What 10 year old boy wants to model?

    Maybe they can afford to get him to a good dentist or orthodonist now..looks like he needs it..likley he is as vain as his mum so he prolly enjoys the attention, what 10 year old wouldn’t?

    Nice one Beckhams WTG

    Well, many famous people started out this way. Maybe looking at Victoria and David, Burberry wanted to get in on the ground floor thinking the kids got the good looking genes.

    A very average looking kid: he’s not ready for prime time. Maybe he’ll grow into his parents’ good looks?

    Really ….. All the cute kids must have been taken ….. regardless of who his parents are, he needs braces. And you would think the ‘signature beige trench coat’ would come in his size!

    Nepotism aside, Who-The-Fakk buys Burberry for 10 years; more-so, how screwed-up must a 10-year-old be to ask for a trench coat? Ughh!!! this story is terrible on so many levels.

    Knock off the rude remarks he’s ten years old people!He’s still growing and his mouth has to catch up with his second teeth. As for the coat being too big who made you people fashion editors,have a feeling your wardrobe consists of Tshirts and a couple of worn out jeans and a typical ski jacket.

  12. Mary • December 20, 2012 @ 10:03 PM

    Oh yes forgot the runners.

  13. Mary Auld • December 20, 2012 @ 10:39 PM

    He is waaaaay too young for clothes like that, he is still a child..why do they want him to wear men’s clothing. For all the people commenting on his teeth…he’s 10!!!!! He can’t get braces till all his baby teeth are out. He is ridiculous looking but I am sure his mom is behind all this. Get a grip David…get your boy out of this stuff.

    What is it with these celebrity parents, why can’t they let their kids be kids, they grow up too fast as it is. Take him out of the limelight, let him lead a normal life until he can make up his own mind whether he wants to follow Mommy and Daddys’ modelling careers!

  15. Sasha • December 22, 2012 @ 3:48 AM

    He looks uncomfortable. There’s cuter kids that are more deserving. He’s lucky because of who his parents are. Just because the father has talents doesn’t mean the kid will take after him.
