Romeo Beckham Spotted with Kim Turnbull After Fine

Romeo Beckham stepped out with his girlfriend Kim Turnbull as he was seen for the first time since being fined for using his phone at the wheel of his Porsche.

The son of David and , 23, had his arm slung around his DJ girlfriend's shoulder as they grabbed lunch at Honest Greens in London's Soho.

Romeo, who is currently sporting bleach blonde hair, was wearing a black hooded jacket with a pair of sports shorts and white and silver Asics trainers.

Meanwhile, Kim opted for sports chic in Salomon trainers with a form-fitting Alo top with a pair of grey joggers, which flashed her toned midriff.

She was fresh-faced and her dark hair was worn slicked back into a neat bun. 

Romeo was fined £440 after he was caught scrolling on his phone at the wheel of his £100,000 Porsche 911 – with a dog loose in the car.

The model was pulled over in Westminster last September after a police officer spotted him with both hands on the device while at a red light.

A woman, who was not identified in court, was in the passenger seat also looking at her phone, and with an 'unrestrained' dog in her lap. 

In a statement, the police officer said Romeo was 'distracted' and did not have proper control of the supercar.

At Westminster Magistrates' Court last Thursday, he was convicted of being a driver not in a position to have proper control. 

He was issued with a fine and three penalty points on his licence. He was also ordered by magistrate Phillip Jordan to pay £130 in costs and a £176 victim surcharge.

The court case comes almost exactly seven years since his father, Sir David Beckham, was banned from driving for six months for using his mobile phone at the wheel.

In that 2019 case, the former footballer admitted being on his phone in slow moving traffic in the West End. 

He told a court he would miss driving his children – Romeo, then 16, Cruz, then 14, and Harper, then seven – to school while serving the ban.

Romeo, who is the second son of David and Victoria, was stopped by police on September 16 last year on Victoria Street, Westminster, just before 11.20am.

PC Luke Short said he passed the Porsche 911 Carrera and assessed the driver as being 'distracted' due to the scene inside.

'As I passed the vehicle on its nearside, I looked down to my right and noted that there was an unrestrained dog sitting on the female passenger's lap,' he wrote in his statement.

'The female had her head down and was holding a mobile phone.

'I looked across at the driver. I saw that he too had his head tilted down and appeared to be looking down at a mobile phone he was holding low in his lap, near the base of the steering wheel.

'I could see that he was scrolling on the device with his thumbs.'

The officer pulled Romeo over and confronted him, and said he decided to use his discretion to offer the driver 'words of advice concerning the insecure load, namely the dog'.

Rule 57 of the Highway Code sets out that dogs must be 'suitably restrained' in a vehicle, and the driver can be prosecuted for driving without proper control or careless driving if it is assessed the animal is causing a distraction or affecting the quality of the driving.

Romeo's brush with the law came days after he had debuted a new platinum blonde buzzcut at a New York Fashion Week event.

Two days after the incident, Romeo made his runway debut at London Fashion Week at the H&M show.

Police say he was given the chance to pay a fine and go on a driver awareness course to avoid criminal proceedings over using his phone in the car, but he did not respond to the offer.

Romeo was then prosecuted through the single justice procedure, which handles driving offences in private hearings.

The court said Romeo did not enter a plea to the charge when written to at his luxury south-west London apartment, and he was convicted on the basis of the police evidence on Thursday last week.

Romeo's conviction comes amid a turbulent time for the Beckham family due to an ongoing fallout between his brother Brooklyn and his parents. 

The 27-year-old appeared to take a 'cheap shot' at David and Victoria after starring in a World Cup ad for delivery firm DoorDash. 

Brooklyn collaborated with the company for the sponsored video, in which he smirks and says: 'You're probably wondering why I'm watching the FIFA World Cup 2026 from home... It's a long story.'  

In January, Brooklyn, who is David and Victoria's eldest son, made a dozen explosive accusations in a ruthless Instagram statement about his family.

He accused them of valuing 'public promotion and endorsements above all else', claiming his parents were 'performative'. 

Romeo has stood by his parents throughout the family fallout with Brooklyn.
