What does Brooklyn Beckham do for a living?

The eldest child of the former Spice Girl-turned-designer and footballing legend is a model, photographer and more recently entered the food industry. An aspiring chef, Brooklyn has taken to sharing cooking clips with his 13.4 million Instagram followers.

He also teamed up with Facebook Messenger in 2021 to create an eight-part cooking series called Cookin' With Brooklyn. In a trailer for the mini-series, Brooklyn said: "My name is Brooklyn Beckham and I just love to cook.

"I'm not a chef yet. This is the start of my food journey. I love making food for people that I love and that I enjoy hanging out with. I'm going to work my a**e off and see where I get." The show faced backlash, however, after the New York Post reported that one episode cost $10y,000 and had a crew of 62 people.

Before he delved into the world of cookery, Brooklyn worked both sides of the camera as a model and photographer. As a model he has appeared in editorials for Vogue China, Miss Vogue and Dazed Korea.

At just 16 years old, Brooklyn photographed a campaign for Burberry. Then in 2017, Brooklyn announced he was heading to Parsons School of Design in New York for a photography degree. He published his first book of photography, What I See, less than one year into his studies.

Alongside his passions, Brooklyn has also teamed up with many brands and campaigns. More recently it was announced he'd become the new face of Superdry, spreading its message of sustainable fashion.

How old is Brooklyn Beckham?

Brooklyn is 23 years old and was born on March 4, 1999. The eldest son of David and Victoria Beckham, Brooklyn has three younger siblings; Romeo, 19, Cruz, 17, and his 10-year-old sister, Harper.

Who is Nicola Peltz?

Brooklyn and Nicola will get married on Saturday, April 9. The big day comes two years after Brooklyn proposed in July 2020.

Nicola describes herself as an actress, writer and director. Her acting credits include Bates Motel and Transformers: Age of Extinction.

Nicola's film debut was in the festive comedy Deck the Halls in 2006 alongside Danny DeVito. The star played Mackenzie in the film.

The 27-year -old is the daughter of billionaire businessman Nelson Peltz. And while model Brooklyn, 23, may have extremely rich parents, who have amassed a staggering £343million fortune, it is dwarfed by that of Nicola's family. The Peltz's fortune sits at around £1.3billion. You can read more on this here.
