There's no one who does a family gathering like the Beckhams - and with plenty of birthday celebrations having taken place this year, we're seeing lots of the brand new Beckham girlfriends.
However, it isn't always plain sailing for the young couples. This week, it was revealed that Romeo Beckham has split with his girlfriend 24-year-old model and DJ Kim Turnbull. The former footballer-turned-model, 22, went Instagram official with 24-year-old model and DJ Kim Turnbull last November, and were spotted out in public together on several occasions since.
Admittedly, the split was a shock to many fans of the Beckham offspring, given it came weeks after the pair celebrated David Beckham's 50th together. An insider told the The Daily Mail: 'Romeo and Kim are both young and they had a lovely time together but at that age things don’t always last forever and they decided to split up. They have been friendly since and have even been at the same venues. It’s a huge shame, particularly as David and Victoria really adored her and thought she made Romeo happy but it wasn’t to be.'
They continued: 'It happened a couple of weeks ago and relations have remained friendly between them. David and Victoria would hate for the view to be that they split because of Nicola and Brooklyn because that simply isn’t the case,' adding 'The fact is that Kim has got a really busy career as a DJ and Romeo has a busy work life too, there is lots of travelling for both of them at having a relationship at this time isn’t all that conducive to their lives.'
