Brooklyn Beckham 'lacking basic skills' as photographer Rakin's intern

Most interns have a hard time starting off and it can be extremely daunting, particularly if you are working with a super-famous photographer such as Rankin.

Brooklyn Beckham seems to be learning the hard way and realising that just because you have special access to people and places, doesn't necessarily mean you are going to be successful.

Insiders have told The Sun that Brooklyn Beckham has struggled with even the easiest jobs and is having to be treated like a total novice.

"Everyone knew Brooklyn's work needed fine tuning but no one knew his knowledge of the simplest tasks was so off.

"Everyone had high hopes for him but it's not been the most impressive start. He's lacking in most areas. but he's trying to make up for it in enthusiasm."

It appears that Brooklyn is not being treated with kid gloves.

One insider scathingly said, "Brooklyn's best at pressing the button on the camera."

It's not surprising that the eldest son of the Beckhams has found it tough. He dropped out of new York's Parsons School of Design last year, where he was studying.

He has apparently deferred his place after landing the internship with Rankin.

"Luckily, mo one has asked him to make the tea yet but some have been tempted. It's become a bit of a joke."

Brooklyn released a photo book in 2017 called 'What I See', which was panned for being "blurry".

It seems that he is having to be helped with the simplest of tasks such as lighting and setting up the shots.

It seems that money might be able to buy you an internship but cannot buy you the talent.
