Rumor of the Day: Romeo Becomes an Eyewear Designer

We all know that Romeo Beckham has a keen eye for fashion and definitely follows in his parents footsteps, but this rumor is a bit too much...

"Romeo, eight, has reportedly signed a deal to create a line of children's shades after begging his parents to let him become a fashion designer. A friend of the family told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Romeo has a real eye for fashion. He has strong opinions on what works and what doesn't, and has been badgering David and Victoria for months about designing his own sunglasses. It is no passing whim - Victoria said she'd only back the project if he was certain he wanted to do it."

It is believed that well connected Romeo will call on his young celebrity pals - including Tom Cruise's daughter Suri Cruise, Leni, the six-year-old daughter of supermodel Heidi Klum, and TV chef Gordon Ramsay's four children - to model the frames.

The pal said: "There is a gap in the market for designer kids' shades that are 100 per cent UV protected and trendy. The glasses are made especially for children and will have a cool 'RB' motif on one arm. The range was originally going to be called Bambino Beckham. Both Victoria and David are delighted."
