Brooklyn Beckham is reportedly making a surprising career change once again - this time, establishing a charity dog shelter with his wife Nicola Peltz.
The couple's project, The Peltz Beckham Foundation, aims to rescue and and shelter homeless dogs in Los Angeles. And according to The Sun, the couple have filed paperwork in California to register the non-profit.
The Standard have contacted a representative of Brooklyn for comment.
Since this venture will keep Beckham, 26, in the US with actress Peltz, 30, it is expected to further distance him from his family amid an ongoing alleged rift.
Brooklyn did not attend any of the three big celebrations held for David Beckham's 50th birthday, even though the pair were in the UK last week.
He also didn’t acknowledge his mum Victoria’s 51st birthday last month.
With the family drama aside, let’s focus on all the career choices Brooklyn and Romeo have made.
What career choices has Brooklyn made?
Brooklyn Beckham has dabbled with football, modelling, photography, and the culinary arts, among other professions.
Footballer
When Brooklyn was younger, he played for Arsenal's youth squad, just like his father. However, he stopped playing at the age of 16 after not being awarded a scholarship.
David gave a glimpse into Brooklyn’s football era in 2015 when he told ABC: “One of my boys turned around to me the other day and said, 'Daddy, I'm not sure I want to play football all the time. He said, 'Every time I step onto the field, I know people are saying, 'This is David Beckham's son', and if I am not as good as you, then it is not good enough'.”
Photographer
Brooklyn took pictures for a Burberry Brit campaign without any official experience at the age of 16, which launched his ‘photography career’.
Two years later, he released an infamous book on photography called What I See which featured some selfies as well as images from a Hillary Clinton rally and a Beckham family vacation in Kenya.
He then enrolled in a four-year program at New York's Parsons School of Design, but he left after just one year to be nearer to his family.
Chef
He experimented in home cooking during the lockdown, and by October 2022, he was on the US Today Show, where he created a sausage and egg sandwich.
In his web series Cookin' With Brooklyn, he has prepared pizza, burgers, and bolognese from scratch.
Brooklyn has also introduced his own hot sauce line, Cloud23, last year which quickly sold out.
He offered a range of products, such as hoodies and caps, in addition to his organic and non-GMO sauces.
Additionally, he and Mora Mora worked together to launch a blue protein smoothie, with ten per cent of sales going to organisations that support animal rescue.
More recently, he collaborated with Barilla Al Bronzo pasta.
Race car driver
Brooklyn's latest endeavour, racing, will be featured on Formula E's social media platforms and in a unique one-off documentary that will premiere later in 2025.
Alongside football player Sergio Agüero, actor Tom Felton from Harry Potter, and auto-fanatic Supercar Blondie, he will train like a pro racer and drive extremely fast cars on the racecourse.
Possibly a dog shelter owner
The Sun reports that Brooklyn, with his wife Nicola, have filed paperwork in California to register a non-profit dog shelter.
Dog enthusiast Nicola has experience with shelter work as she founded Yogi's House, an animal sanctuary in California that aims to save dogs from euthanasia lists.
How about Romeo?
Romeo hasn't started his own business yet, unlike Brooklyn. He prioritises his modelling career and brand endorsements, but according to reports, he might think about starting his own company in the future, looking at opportunities in the fashion or lifestyle industries.
Footballer
Romeo had a brief football career like his older brother, spending time with the youth program of Arsenal and the reserve squad of Inter Miami before joining Brentford B.
However, his football journey didn’t last long as he pursued a career in fashion soon after.
Model
Due to the influence of his fashion designer mother, Victoria, Romeo is currently pursuing a profession in fashion. He holds a contract with a leading fashion agency and has modelled for brands including Yves Saint Laurent and Burberry.
