New Gen Z celebrity couple have emerged

A new celebrity couple has been spotted and the pair seem very loved-up.

Brooklyn Beckham defends his 'nepo baby' status

David and Victoria Beckham’s son Romeo, 22, has been seen lingerie shopping with his new girlfriend, Kim Turnbull.

Romeo has followed in his father’s footsteps and tried his hand at playing soccer professionally but, this year, he left the Premier League to focus on fashion.

He looks incredibly similar to his dad, and in true child-of-a-famous-person fashion, he has also dabbled in modelling.

Turnbull, 23, is not related to our former PM, Malcolm Turnbull, but is a popular and trendy DJ with over 20,000 Instagram followers.

Meanwhile, Romeo has over 4 million followers, and the pair have reportedly been dating for a few weeks.

The two aren’t being shy about their new romance.

In fact, they were spotted prancing around New York City together and even inspecting some lingerie together as a duo.

Romeo wore extraordinarily large pants, and Turnbull kept it cute and cosy in an oversized coat.

The two holding hands popped into Agent Provocateur, a famously sexy French lingerie store.

This is the place to go if you want to spend some money on something lacy and possibly see-through that is still extremely tasteful.

Romeo kept his backwards hat firmly on his head as the two perused the store - which is a very Gen Z move - and Turnbull left the store carrying a large bag.

The two looked casual and comfortable, and it isn’t surprising that Romeo isn’t subtle about his romance.

His parents, David and Victoria, wore matching outfits before it was cool.

His brother Brooklyn is so in love with his billionaire heiress wife Nicola Peltz that he has numerous tattoos in her honour.

Romeo dated Mia Regan, but they split after five years together. He revealed to fans on Instagram that they still have a “strong friendship” but had gone their separate ways romantically in February.

Mia even posted her own statement on Instagram, alongside a selfie of the pair, explaining that “love takes many different forms.”

“We aren’t together romantically, but we do share lots & lots of love for one another … after five years, we friend-zoned each other, hehe,” she wrote.

While Romeo and Mia may have taken the high road about their relationship demise, fans online were crushed.

Romeo and Mia were the kind of couple that shared so much of their relationship online, including photos of him playfully groping her.

In the captions of the photos, Romeo used to gush about how much he “loved” her.

Naturally, people became invested in their relationship, so the announcement upset some and caused them to jump to some pretty outrageous conclusions.

Someone wrote that their break-up proved that love is not “real”. Another said she was going to cry because she’d just heard the news.

One claimed they couldn’t “handle” the news and another said they “refused” to believe it.
