David’s Son Romeo Just Made His (Incognito) PFW Debut
The 22-year-old former footballer hit the Balenciaga runway in a striped polo and a pair of face-shielding frames.
From the Jenners and the Hadids to Kaia Gerber and Leland Fraser, fashion has long been a natural professional home for the children of celebrities. If we’re already marveling at beautiful clothes, why not also admire the wonders of beautiful genetics?
This theorem played out at the Balenciaga spring 2025 show during Paris Fashion Week, where Romeo Beckham—the 22-year-old son of Victoria and David Beckham, younger brother of Brooklyn, 25, and elder of Cruz, 19, and Harper, 13—made his runway debut on Monday.
On the wooden catwalk, which was fashioned to resemble designer Demna’s grandmother’s dining table, the second-born Beckham wore a pink-and-blue striped polo shirt, low-slung faded jeans, humongous silver sneakers, and comically wide sunglasses that shielded his eyes like Zorro’s mask. Affixed to a plastic coil keychain around his wrist, he carried an iPhone whose screen bore the Balenciaga logo.

“Proud of you mate, well done,” Romeo’s dad David wrote on Instagram, while his mum Victoria—who presented her eponymous brand’s spring collection in Paris last week—also shared a video of her son’s runway walk to her Instagram story.
