贝克汉姆大儿子17岁的人生是这样的

Life of Beckham's Eldest Child

For the average 17-yearold, there are some well-established rites①rite 英 [raɪt] 美 [raɪt] n. 仪式;惯例,习俗;典礼of passage:slaving away for A-levels, a mundane②mundane 英 ['mʌndeɪn; mʌn'deɪn] 美 [mʌn'den]adj. 世俗的,平凡的;世界的,宇宙的Saturday job and driving lessons in the hope your parents might buy you an old banger.

And, in theory, Brooklyn Beck ham - eldest child o f footballing legend David and former Spice Girl Victoria - is just another London sixth-former③sixth former (英)六年级中学生.

But in reality, his life bears scant resemblance④resemblance 英 [rɪ'zembl(ə)ns] 美 [rɪ'zɛmbləns]n. 相似;相似之处;相似物;肖像to that of a normal teenager. He has his own agent, a Mercedes sports car and a famous girlfriend.

While mo st teen agers use social media to share photos of school friends,it's wall-to-wall celebs for Brooklyn — Christmas lunch with Gordon Ramsay and a seat at Sir Elton John's wedding. He has posted pictures of himself with model Cara Delevingne,comedian James Corden and Sir Elton, who is his godfather.

He joined photo-sharing website Instagram in December 2014 and by April 2015 was telling Desperate Housewives actress Eva Longoria — h is mum's best friend — ‘race you to a million!' He won the race comfortably and now has 7.6 million followers.

Father David says he and Victoria vet all the pictures their son posts. They include many of his girlfriend Chloe, complete with soppy⑤soppy 英 ['sɒpɪ] 美 adj. 浑身湿透的,浸湿的captions such as "love this one".

Brooklyn has a long way to go before he matches his parents,who are worth around £6 00 million. However, he is being managed by Simon Olivera, who is dad David's agent, so who knows where it will all end.

In total, to d ate, h e is estimated⑥estimate 英 ['estɪmeɪt] 美 ['ɛstə,met] vi. 估计,估价n. 估计,估价;判断,看法to have earned around £250,000 and counting.

对每个17岁的少年而言,有些公认的必经之事,像是努力通过A-level课程、周六打份无聊的工以及为了让父母给自己买一辆旧老爷车而去学驾照。

而布鲁克林·贝克汉姆身为足球传奇大卫·贝克汉姆与英国辣妹组合前成员维多利亚的大儿子,理论上其实也只是伦敦的一名大学预科少年。

而现实是,他的生活和一名普通的青少年大不相同。布鲁克林有自己的经纪人,一辆梅赛德斯跑车,还有非常知名的女友。

在众多青少年用社交媒体分享学校伙伴的照片时,布鲁克林的社交媒体上可是满屏的名人。上个圣诞节,他和戈登·拉姆齐(厨神)共进午餐。他还是艾尔顿·约翰爵士所举办婚礼的座上宾。他已经晒过自己同超模卡拉·迪瓦伊、喜剧演员詹姆斯·柯登以及自己教父艾尔顿·约翰爵士的合照了。

在2014年12月,布鲁克林注册了照片分享网站Instagram账号,到2015年4月,他便对《绝望主妇》女星伊娃·朗格利亚(同时也是他妈妈的闺蜜)炫耀道:“挑战你的100万粉丝数!”他轻而易举地赢了这场粉丝比拼赛,如今他的Instagram有760万的追随者。

他的爸爸大卫表示自己和妻子会过目儿子发过的所有照片。他们在看过儿子女友科洛的许多照片后,还会附上“这个不错哟”的喜爱评语。

要赶上身价近6亿英镑的父母,布鲁克林还有很长一段路要走。不过,他正由父亲大卫的经纪人西蒙·奥利韦拉照看,因而没有谁晓得他最终会发展成怎样。

到目前为止,布鲁克林的总身价约为25万英镑,而且呈上升趋势。
