It’s official. Romeo Beckham is now a model – for iconic Brit brand Burberry no less.

The 10-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham has made his modelling debut for Burberry’s 2013 Spring/Summer campaign, joining the ranks of well-loved Burberry faces like Edie Campbell, Cara Delevingne, Charlotte Wiggins, Charlie France and Alex Dunstan.

The second son of the Beckhams was shot by none other than the famed Mario Testino for the campaign and was described as having “ a joy to work with and (he) really stole the show”, according to Burberry Chief Creative Officer Christopher Bailey.

Bailey also added, “This season’s campaign lights up with the infectious energy of an amazing young cast of old and new Burberry family. We had such fun shooting the campaign and I think that comes through in the images which really reflect the upbeat spirit of the collection.”

And if it there is any one of the Beckhams that’s most likely to join the fashion industry, it will have to be Romeo.

Victoria Beckham once described her son to Ryan Seacrest in 2010, “ Romeo “loves fashion. He likes to go out in a suit with a bowler hat…he’s a real fashion lover.”

The Beckhams recently stepped out together last week and walked the red carpet at the premiere of the Spice Girls musical Viva Forever in a bid to support Victoria. And no surprises, all four guys were decked out in bespoke Burberry suits.
