Romeo Beckham Is The New Face Of Burberry

Posted: 17/12/12 | Updated: 18/12/12

Get updates from MyDaily Staff:

Who? Romeo Beckham, aka Victoria and David's middle child.

What? Victoria's 10-year-old son has been hand-picked by Burberry's top creative bod, Christopher Bailey, to star in the brand's spring summer 2013 campaign. The advert was shot by none other than Mario Testino, and Romeo joins models Charlie France and Edie Campbell in the ad. When he turned up at the Viva Forever press night looking super-suave in a black Burberry coat, little did we know he'd already wrapped the shoot.

In a statement released on 17 December, Burberry said: "We are excited to reveal news of the Burberry Spring Summer 2013 campaign cast, featuring Romeo Beckham and Cara Delevingne, Edie Campbell, Charlotte Wiggins, Alex Dunstan, Charlie France and Max Rendell."

Where? Burberry Spring Summer 2013 Campaign.

Verdict? Romeo has always been the most style-conscious of the Beckham children (so far), so it's hardly surprising he's following mum Victoria and dad David into the fashion world. And, we've got to admit it, he looks pretty darn cute, doesn't he?

Victoria and David are exemplary parents, as demonstrated by the unfailing good behaviour of the children when in the limelight. Surely they can be trusted to not let Romeo's first fifteen minutes of fame go to his head. Good luck, young man!

How long before Posh piggy complains that the press are taking pics of the lad without their permission (ie without paying) , they have denied this kid a childhood and cant complain when it backfires on them . It seems everything has a price , even their kids

I am not a fan of the Beckhams, how they opt to live their life is their business, compared to a lot celeb children their children seem very grounded and well raised, the children also have manners and behave (which a lot of non celeb kids lack in thse days) so lets not start pointing fingers!! If the boy is happy to do it then theres no big deal! millions of children do it every day and many of them are happy to do so, and turn out to be just fine. Yes there are pushy parents out there but again this happens in every day life so dont assume the child was forced in to it! If the boy didnt want to do it I really dont think they would make him, plus come on, we all know when a kid isnt happy then work doesnt get done!! the shoot wouldnt happen! I do think hes the spit of his mother though!

They can afford to pay Burberry to employ their son so it's not a big deal. They must have been bribed otherwise they could have selected some youngster who had looks and was not in need of dentistry.

I think he looks fab, he is sooo cute, in fact all the Beckham children are stunning, they are always well presented, well mannered, they dont seem to be full of themselves like some celeb kids (Suri!), well done Romeo, I am sure the whole family is proud of you.

"I just can't wait to read the verbal and written slaughter they'll have to endure. " Well i start it off shall i . Its only becuase hes a beckham that he got this job . Instant publicity for burberry straight away . Not only do we have david and victoria but now romeo . Why dont they keep him out of the limelight and encourage him to be a solicitor or doctor . More worthy than being a clothes horse like his mam and pa . The beckhams are tacky and have no class with all that money .You might have guessed i am not a fan .
