Beckham son is Burberry model

David Beckham’s ten-year-old son, Romeo, is the new face of Burberry.

The son of the former England football captain and Victoria Beckham joins a British cast featuring the likes of Cara Delevigne in the fashion house’s Spring/Summer 2013 campaign.

Romeo appears in one image, smiling, holding an umbrella and balancing on one leg in a classic Burberry trench coat.

The firm’s chief creative officer, Christopher Bailey, described him as “a joy to work with”.

He said: “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.”
