“Spoilt Beyond Belief”: Fans Call Out Double Standards After Harper Beckham Takes Paris Trip
Fans called out double standards after 13-year-old Harper Beckham was spotted in Paris carrying a luxurious $2,344 Goyard tote bag (£1850). She allegedly missed school while strolling with her mother, Victoria Beckham, through the French capital.
While some netizens focused on her fashion style, others pointed out that her attitude—being “glued to her phone” while skipping her classes—was a clear sign of the leniency afforded to the wealthy regarding education and lifestyle choices.
One particular comment garnered more than 1,500 likes after it expressed frustration over the fact that, had Harper been in a public school, her parents might have faced questioning from authorities for failing to ensure she attended school.
“Time and time again, there are different laws for those who earn a lot of money,” the netizen wrote. “No wonder kids of parents with much more money have no aspirations and go about life without contributing to society.”
The comment went on to state that if Harper were in a state school, her parents would be facing legal trouble and fines. “Isn’t it a law that children must go to school?” the netizen asked.
While Harper Beckham’s current school is unknown—or if she may be undergoing other types of education—her last known enrollment is speculated to have been Glendower Prep in London, which requires a purple uniform that she has showcased in photos shared by her father, David Beckham.
Despite what her critics have said, the Beckham daughter has been making a name for herself in fashion and makeup, motivated by her mother, whom she often accompanies to fashion shows and events.
The comments echo similar sentiments thrown at her brother, Brooklyn Beckham, who addressed the conversation about him being a “nepo baby,” the offspring of an already wealthy and successful couple whose success in life is attributed to the influence and connections of their parents.
