Romeo Beckham hits the catwalk for London Fashion Week after 'scathing swipe' at Nicola Peltz

Romeo Beckham walked the runway for Burberry’s star-studded London Fashion Week show amid his family’s ongoing feud with his brother Brooklyn.

Last week, Romeo joined the Beckhams in celebrating his brother Cruz’s 21st birthday with a lavish bash - where Brooklyn was noticeably absent.

Days later, he reportedly “liked” an Instagram post that called Brooklyn’s wife Nicola Peltz “the problem” in the bitter fallout.

Amid the family rift, the 23-year-old hit the catwalk for Burberry’s show at 1 Old Billingsgate Walk in London on Monday.

He wore a fur-trimmed leather jacket contrasting with a light pink shirt, burgundy trousers in Burberry’s signature checker pattern and black patent shoes.

Also modelling was Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, 38, wore an extravagant knee-length black fur coat with navy highlights, tied at the waist with a leather-look black cord.

A string of A-list celebrities attended the fashion show, including Hollywood stars Barry Keoghan and Jason Statham, supermodel Kate Moss and actress Daisy Edgar-Jones.

Action-star Statham wore a classic all-black ensemble, layering a long coat over a hooded jacket.

Moss wore a slinky navy silk dress under a knee-length black trench, pairing the simple ensemble with sheer black tights and closed-toe black heels.

Edgar-Jones, who starred in Twisters, also opted for a signature Burberry trench, wearing a long black leather version over a black lace skirt with matching heels.

Also in attendance were American socialite Nicky Hilton, actor Leo Woodall, Bafta-nominee Stellan Skarsgard and actress Jodie Turner-Smith.

Romeo’s catwalk appearance comes days after he apparently “liked” a video featuring an influencer telling her followers that Victoria Beckham and David Beckham were “trying to rescue their son”.

“I take it all back. Nicola is the problem. Victoria and David are trying to rescue their son, I think Nicola forced him to make that statement,” she said, according to The Sun.

“I saw an interview with Victoria, and she was like ‘I’m a girls’ girl, I love girls, that’s why I have the business I have, and you have to be a real a-hole for me not to like you.’

“And I was like ‘oh yeah Nicola’s an a*****e.'”

Brooklyn and Nicola have been estranged from the family for months, with Brooklyn issuing a lengthy public statement last month distancing himself from his parents and accusing them of prioritising “Brand Beckham” and controlling the narrative around their private lives.

He also removed a tattoo tribute to his father.

Despite the fallout, the Beckhams put on a united front on Sunday as they marked Cruz’s 21st birthday with a Beatles-inspired bash in Mayfair.

David and Victoria were joined by sons Romeo and Cruz and daughter Harper for the celebration at The Maine in London and was dubbed The Grand Beatle Ball.

Cruz’s girlfriend Jackie Apostel and Romeo’s partner, DJ Kim Turnbull, also posed for family photographs at the restaurant, which was hired exclusively for the occasion ahead of Cruz turning 21 on Friday.

Victoria shared snaps from the evening, writing: “Celebrating Cruz early!! We love you so much!!!”

David echoed the sentiment, posting: “We love celebrating you Cruzie. A lot of love in the room for you last night.”
