It’s an accolade usually reserved for those from the upper echelons of society.
But it appears that Tatler has decided to give its annual Little Black Book of the country’s top ten eligible bachelors and bachelorettes a bit of a makeover.
Because this year, in second place, is David and Victoria Beckham’s newly single son Cruz who has been for some years trying to carve himself out a career as a popstar.
He has been hailed by the high society magazine as a young Sir Paul McCartney after splitting from his long-term girlfriend Tana Holding earlier this year – as exclusively revealed by MailOnline.
Announcing he was pipped to the number one spot by the Princess Olympia of Greece, 27, the publication said of aspiring musician and youngest son of Posh and Becks: ‘Is 18-year-old Cruz a Belieber?’

The publication continued: ‘Just look at his white vests, chain necklaces and budding songwriting career – very Justin circa 2012.
‘But after showing off his music skills on Instagram with a Beatles hit, this young buck may see himself more as a mini Paul McCartney. If you’re lucky, he might serenade you at the Beckhams’ Holland Park pile.’
Meanwhile, Tatler’s football them continued with Manchester United and England star Marcus Rashford being placed sixth after he and childhood sweetheart Lucia Loi went their separate ways last year.
The magazine said of Rashford, 26: ‘Once dubbed the “Prince of England”, Manchester United’s darling is a national treasure in training.
‘When he’s not scoring dazzling goals at Old Trafford, Rashford will be pounding the pavements of his home town, Wythenshawe, with Saint Rashford, his Cane Corso dog.
‘Having split from his childhood sweetheart last year, he’s enjoyed a #YachtBoySummer in Ibiza, decked in diamond chains. Brush up on your British rappers: his favourite is Dave. After all, he is a ‘Sprinter.’
In third place is Baroness Owen of Alderley Edge, known better as former Westminster spad Charlotte Owen, 30.
The publication wrote of her: ‘Boris Johnson’s former aide Charlotte, 30, won a seat in the House of Lords earlier this year, making history – and headlines – as the youngest ever life peer.

‘There have been whispers about Cheshire-born Charlotte’s rapid rise, but what’s certain is that everyone’s talking about her.
Next was The Marquess of Tavistock, 18, who is heir to the dukedom of Bedford in fourth place.
‘Known as Tavie to his friends,’ the magazine said of him.
‘He can often be spotted in his pimped-out Toyota pick-up truck with LED lights and TAV11E number plate.
‘His real passion is wildlife, and if you’re invited to his house, Woburn Abbey, he might just introduce you to the giraffes and ostriches in the safari park.’
Meanwhile, Freya Aspinall, the 21-year-old daughter of conservationist Damian Aspinall and Donna Air and Faridah Folawiyo, the daughter of Nigerian mogul Tijani Folawiyo and entrepreneur Reni Folawiyo also made the list.
MailOnline exclusively revealed that Cruz had split from his girlfriend Tana after a year-long romance earlier this month.
The aspiring singer was first seen with the model back in May 2022, but a source has since revealed they ended their relationship over the summer.
It comes after Tana was noticeably absent from the premiere of Cruz’s family’s Netflix series two weeks ago.

A source told MailOnline: ‘Cruz and Tana quietly split over the summer. They’re very private. It was a teenage romance, but sadly it just didn’t work out.’
Tana, who began dating Cruz in May, also failed to join his family on holiday this summer, having been spotted on a summer getaway with them in Italy last year.
The couple were last pictured together at Glastonbury back in June.
Cruz was noticeably solo as he joined the entire Beckham clan for the premiere of David’s Netflix series, and his three sons bore a striking resemblance to their fashion-conscious father at different points in a footballing life.
