David Beckham's son Romeo poses for Burberry in photoshoot

David Beckham's son Romeo has launched into his own modelling career after he was asked to appear in Burberry's new advertising campaign.

The 10-year-old is believed to have been picked by the Burberry Chief Creative Officer Christopher Bailey to model the new Spring/Summer 2013 collection.

It is understood that Romeo posed for the photoshoot in secret two months ago after the brand's catwalk show, according to the Daily Mail.

Romeo is the second-eldest of the Beckhams' four children.
