To feel sorry for Brooklyn Beckham?

[Ridelikethewindypops]

I just do feel a bit sorry for him. He's completely out of touch with the real world obviously, but he's so young and so gormless. But seems so determined to be famous in his own right, despite no specialist skill set. I wonder do famous parents ever encourage their children to go to uni and get a real job? Or is that not an option? There are plenty of fulfilling jobs he could do, teaching, nursing, even volunteering ( as he clearly doesn't need the money)
I feel bad for him as he gets mocked online, but he still seems determined to put himself out there.
Money aside, I do feel sorry for the children of spectacularly talented parents, it must cast a long shadow. ( I repeat, money aside...😅)

I honk you need to perhaps think before you speak.

It must be hard to be an ordinary looking grown man with no great talent.
you then marry a billionaire’s daughter.
so hard.
poor man

@DesertRose64 There's 250 messages slagging off Brooklyn. He's dyslexic but with his advantages in life he could be doing something amazing instead of awful faux cookery tutorials.

famous for how bad her clobber is and how many luvvies are fooled into wearing it 😂

I like looking at the wider picture. It’s like a giant jigsaw puzzle. We used to think ASD was the root of everything going on across 3 generations of our family and extended family on one side. But in actual fact it’s spreading across 3 generations on both sides of the family and where there isn’t ASD there’s Bipolar Disorder and ScHizophrenia as well as a couple of people with a personality disorder. It’s absolutely fascination. Who knows what we’d find if we could go back 4 generations.

Stella's career is also built on her father's fame and connections. She apprenticed with Christian Lacroix as a teen and had friends Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, and Yasmine Le Bon model her clothes at her graduation show from a College of Design, walking to a song her father wrote for her called Stella May Day. She was hired as a creative director at a French luxury fashion brand upon graduating, was named Vogue Designer of hte year a couple years later and a couple years after that she opened her own fashion house under her own name in collaboration with Gucci.

She may have worked hard but her career path was paved in gold.

I cannot imagine his parents in law being impressed by his lack of intellectual ability.

His father in law is Nelson Peltz, an American high profile activist investor. He is the equivalent of a hedge fund rock star, currently going after the board at Saleforce. Fiercely intelligent, well read and articulate. Utterly formidable. My guess is he does not suffer fools gladly.

Then comes along his vacuous son-in-law ... Actually I do feel slightly sorry for BB.

I might be wrong and the source was tabloid but I remember I read that VB and NP fell out and don’t get on very well. Something to do with NB snubbing VB to design her wedding dress.

Gosh no!! In my next life I hope to be him! Imagine just spending your life trying out various things that pique your interest but getting to test them out at the most elite level then deciding after a few days you don't fancy it and getting parachuted straight into the next thing that takes your fancy! It would be great, within a month I'd have played tennis against Andy Murray and set up a michelin starred restaurant in the middle of the English Channel! The following month I'd try my hand at racing Lewis Hamilton!

He is not a kid, he is a married man.

He's not really hurting anyone doing what he's doing. Why all the hate on here?

I don’t get it either.

I know poor thing only earned £285,000 per week. Peanuts 🥜

Do you mean Tilly? I don’t watch Strictly but my mum said she was excellent and IIRC she had to put up with some extremely nasty commentary about her appearance

your comment seems to imply that VB is the 'brains' of the duo?

I was thinking this - unforgivable that so-called professionals (assuming this is true) break data laws when it’s a celebrity. Imagine it’s hard for famous people to trust anyone like that.

The famed fashion designer's husband David Beckham has been urging her to take steps to cover the losses after it emerged that Victoria's high-end clothing company has debts of £ 53.9 million

Neither parent is gifted with brains. VB is no great successful businesswoman. She is no great singer or designer. The son is fame hungry like his mum, living of millions of 'brand beckham' family money.

Jack originally went to Exeter to study drama. My ds got quite pally with him but said he did rather like to remind people who he was!

Didn't Tilly Ramsey have a cookery show on CBBC? No idea about if she was any good or not, but I'm sure her connection helped that time.
I'm not surprised BB is married young, he always seemed quite um, intense, with previous relationships.
He was photographed more than once crying in the car or crying sitting on the kerb and arguing with his previous gf. Always lots of selfies in the bathroom mirror declaring undying love.
Obviously most of this is based on The Sidebar of Shame 😁

Nobody hates him. We just don't feel sorry for him - and areaway of the enormous advantages he has had.

Why shouldn't we point that out?

I think the "he's a thick" comments are unkind, though.

@FairyLightAddict If this is true it shouldn't be too hard to pinpoint your friend. If I was Brooklyn's mum or dad I'd have your friend's guts for garters. What an appallingly unprofessional thing for a teacher to do to share personal details about a child.

Would you like it if your seriously intelligent dyslexic son's teacher did it?

Does your friend know you're saying this? I'd be horrified if it was me and you'd be off my Christmas card list. As I said, it wouldn't take a genius to work out which of his tutors gabbled to you only for you to vomit it on social media.

That's if if really happened. People do tend to get carried away and exaggerate or make stuff up. Perhaps it would be best if you said you did

There’s plenty of nasty comments that are quite hateful, those are the ones I’m talking about.

Sorry - yes, you are right. Tilly (I have no idea where I got Maisie from).

Your mum is right. She's not an overweight girl, but she is well-made and she got some very cruel comments which were totally unnecessary.

She really worked hard and did very, very well. I think the week that she went out was one of those weeks where te people in the DO were there not on merit but on popularity.

However she'd gone further than anyone expected - she deserved to do well. Lovely girl.

I don't think there's anything wrong either, in parent using their influence to get their child an opportunity (which of us wouldn't if we had the chance?) - but once they have that chance it's up to the child to make the most of it.

Apparently Romeo ( I think ) did quite fancy being a tennis player so.his Dad had a a tennis court built for him and hired Andy Murray as his coach ,and then Romeo decided to be a football player instead ( maybe despite Andy Murray,s coaching he was useless?) S Daddy hired him for the club inter Miami that he part owned ,according to Google ,Inter Miama ,have loaned him to Brentwood B team for six months .....

I seem to recall that the Beckham child who played tennis was actually rather good at it.
