Romeo Beckham debuts new tattoo as he's spotted stepping out of £1,000-a-night Mayfair hotel after split from girlfriend Kim Turnbull
Romeo Beckham showed off yet another tattoo on Thursday evening as he was pictured leaving the plush Twenty Two Hotel in London.
The Beckham boys have certainly followed in the footsteps of their dad Sir David, 50, when it comes to inkwork.
The former Manchester United star and his eldest, 26, have almost 200 between them, with Romeo, 22, racking up quite the array himself.
He was back visiting Certified Letter Boy - who has tattooed most of the Beckham clan over the years - recently, adding a fairy to the patchwork on his left arm.
The inkwork was visible as the model was snapped leaving the Twenty Two Hotel - where a room typically costs more than £1,000 a night - in Mayfair on Thursday evening.
He donned a casual look for the outing consisting of a grey tracksuit and a co-ordinated short-sleeve T-shirt, which displayed the many inkworks covering the star's arms.

The model visited tattoo artist Certified Letter Boy - who has inked most of the Beckhams over the year - to have a fairy added to his left arm
Romeo last visited the tattoo parlour as recently as the turn of the year, adding a winged cherub to his ankle.
He showed off the tat while enjoying a sun-soaked getaway in Turks and Caicos with his then girlfriend Kim Turnbull, 24, who actually joined him at the parlour, tattooing the numbers '62' and '75' to her arms.
The couple have since split however after seven months together, calling time on their relationship earlier this month after things 'fizzled' out.
Kim had stood loyally by Romeo's side throughout the rift which brought Brooklyn and David apart earlier this year.
The wannabe chef, 26, and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, first sparked rumours of a feud after failing to attend Sir David's star-studded 50th birthday celebration in west London.
Victoria was thought to have been 'heartbroken' over the rift, with Brooklyn now casting himself as the 'wife guy' who does everything for his spouse.
And Brooklyn's fallout with his family has actually affected his inkwork, with the self-proclaimed tattoo addict covering up a tat on his chest reading 'mama's boy'.
The small two-word inking has been layered at some point in the last year with a bunch of flowers - seemingly another tattoo tribute to his wife Nicola, of which he already has more than 70.
Romeo last visited the celebrity tattoo artist as recently as January with the footballer adding a winged cherub to his ankle
His ex-girlfriend Kim Turnbull joined him in getting a tattoo before they jetted off to Turks and Caicos together in January. The couple have since split, as exclusively revealed by The Mail earlier this month
His Nicola-inspired tattoos include a portrait of her on his upper arm and her eyes tattooed on the back his neck, as well as her name.
Brooklyn too has both of the couple's names scrawled across his stomach, after taking her surname when they married.
Meanwhile Romeo has taken a huge amount of inspiration from his father when it comes to his inkwork.
Many of the 22-year-old's tattoos are similarly angelic and religion-inspired, with the star boasting a stone angel statue covering the length of his forearm and two cherubs appearing to ride on some sort of mythical animal on the other arm.
He also has a Jesus cross tattoo featuring a pair of angel wings on the back of his neck, which appears to be inspired by his father, who has a very similar inking in the exact same spot.
Romeo copied David again by getting the same quote as the footballing legend inked across his upper arm, from American pastor Joel Osteen's book.
It reads: 'I DECLARE I have the grace I need for today. I am full of power, strength, and determination. Nothing I face will be too much for me. I will overcome every obstacle, outlast every challenge, and come through every difficulty better off than I was before. This is my declaration.'

Brooklyn Beckham, 26, however recently revealed he has savagely covered up a 'mama's boy' tattoo on his chest in tribute to Victoria (left, in February 2025 and right in 2019)
Romeo's other tattoos include a large dove on his wrist along with the words 'Lead with love', 'freedom to dream' across his ribs, and a lion and an eagle.
Sir David first inked his body in 1999 after playing the first few years of his Manchester United career tattoo-free.
However he first caught the bug late in that decade having supposedly been inspired by Spice Girl Mel B's then husband Jimmy Gulzar.
His first inkwork in 1999 commemorated Brooklyn's arrival into the world, with David tattooing his son's name to his lower back in a classic Gothic script.
A flurry of inkwork followed, with David back at the studio a year later to have his iconic guardian angel inkwork drawn onto the back of his neck.
The sweet idea behind the angel was that the guardian could be watching over Brooklyn's name further down the star's body.
Brooklyn has racked up more than 100 tattoos since first visiting a studio in 2010. He has since covered up tattoo 17, which was in tribute to Victoria
In the same year, David pledged his devotion to wife Victoria with a tattoo of her name in Hindi script. Experts later pointed out the tribute, unfortunately, actually said 'Vihctoria'.
After the birth of their second son Romeo in 2002, David added his name above the guardian angel - which had been tweaked and given impressive wings.
Shortly after his Romeo addition, the Inter Miami owner chose to get the number 7 - which he wore at Manchester United - tattooed on to his inner arm in Roman numerals.
In 2003, he got a Latin inking on left inner arm reading 'So that I love and cherish' and 'Spiritual perfection' onto his right.
He later celebrated his move to Real Madrid by flying over his tattooist Louis Malloy to create the cross design on his back.
While Sir David has reportedly racked up more than 80 tattoos since he first visited a parlour in 1999
The footballer is known for his love of body art and has paid tribute to his wife Victoria and his children with many of his inkings
More recently, David has moved away from his crowded arms to create works on his torso, including a religious scene depicting Jesus being carried by three cherubs, believed to represent him and his three sons.
He also has a scene of a woman in a forest over the right-hand side of his chest and in 2010, added an image of Jesus below his ribcage.
The image is based on a painting called The Man Of Sorrows by Catholic artist Matthew R. Brooks and is believed to be another tribute to his grandfather Joe, who passed away aged 83 the year before.
Speaking about how he chooses his designs, the iconic star has explained: 'They're about the important people in my life, who I want to have with me always.'

Glastonbury fans left fuming as show is pulled off air in technical blunder
GLASTONBURY fans have been left fuming as the show is pulled off air in a huge technical blunder. Music enthusiasts wanted to tune into the BBC and their iPlayer streaming service to watch the latest from Worthy Farm. 5 5 5 If you wanted to watch the likes of Scissor Sisters and Charli XCX then you would have to switch the channel. The BBC coverage of the 2025 Glastonbury Festival has been dogged by technical errors. Even at the festival itself, the opening ceremony was branded a flop by disappointed festival-goers. During a set on The Other Stage, the screen cut to black for many BBC viewers today. And it's no better online for those watching iPlayer as the main Saturday feed also suffered from a huge technical difficulty. Those wanting to watch Scissor Sisters were greeted with an apology message that was emblazoned on the screen. It read: "Sorry for the interruption. We're working to fix this." Glasto fans flooded social media in their droves as they were left fuming by the blunder. Writing on X - formerly known as Twitter - one expletive-filled fan fumed: "F****** hell @BBC you cut Blossoms short and now Scissor Sisters when it's just a black screen. Sort it out." A second stated: "Scissor Sisters have been on stage 8 minutes and the screen is still black! Fury as Glastonbury crowd chants 'death to the IDF' during Bob Vylan set aired live on BBC "I've only wanted to watch them, Jade, and Raye all day and now it's not even working for Scissor Sisters!" "#Glastonbury Jeez put up with watching that Winehouse wannabe Raye screen goes blank for Scissor Sisters," exclaimed an angry user. While a fourth asked: "Having to watch Charli because no streams on iplayer I don't even know what she sings #Glastonbury." "Cmon BBC Iplayer…where's Charli xcx?", enquired someone else. Glastonbury backlashes Glastonbury Festival has been going for 54 trailblazing years - but at times it has been a stormy ride Here, we look at the biggest backlashes to hit the iconic music event. The Smiths (1984): One of the first bands to divide the early Glastonbury purists were Manchester indie stars The Smiths. The band's set even sparked a full scale stage invasion as they introduced the crowd to their guitar-driven, post-punk romanticism music. Guitarist Johnny Marr described their usual fanbase as "cup final supporters", adding: "Eventually, I did manage to instigate a stage invasion, which raised a few eyebrows. One fan was trying to climb on stage, I helped pull him up, and then a few more people followed, and all of a sudden we'd managed to turn it into a Smiths gig." The Fence (2002): It wasn't a band or musician that sparked controversy in 2002... it was a fence. Organiser Michael Eavis came under fire when he organised the erection of a £1million fence around the site. The ring of steel was brought in to protect ticket holders and those who might inadvertently endanger themselves by breaking in. Diehard Glasto fans, however, felt it was at odds with the event's hippy ethos of peace and love. Eavis and co refused to back down, though, and the fence remains in place today. JAY-Z (2008): Despite its long history, Glastonbury had never welcomed a rapper for a headline set - until 2008. Jay-Z's top bill booking was met with a flurry of digs, including some from Oasis's Noel Gallagher, who claimed hip hop had no place at the festival. In a perfect clap-back, Jay-Z walked out to a version of Wonderwall before launching into his powerful hit 99 problems. Seven years later, his pal Kanye West followed in his Glastonbury footsteps and topped the bill. Metallica (2014): Thrash metal rockers Metallica were met with raised eyebrows when they were announced as Glastonbury headliners. Some critics claimed they lacked mainstream appeal, while others felt they were past their prime. However, frontman James Hetfield managed to quickly win the crowd round thanks to his good humour and polite manners. Adele (2016): Although Adele wowed both festival goers and music fans at home with her headliner set, the British songstress did cause a stir by turning the air blue. She warned the crowd about her "potty mouth" but not everyone was impressed with with the 30 plus expletives she dropped on the stage during her headline set, which aired on the BBC. And a sixth added: "Since iPlayer is so useless this weekend you only have what's on BBC One and Two of #Glastonbury." On iPlayer, if you wanted to catch the action from The Other Stage, you would have to swap to the dedicated feed which was still working. 5 5

Gemma Collins left 'terrified' after being sent 'rat poison' in the post as TOWIE star ups security at her mansion following menacing letter earlier this month
Gemma Collins has been left 'terrified' after she was sent rat poison in the post as her stalking hell intensifies. The reality star, 44, is said to be 'reeling' after a package containing the toxicant was delivered to her Essex home. Gemma is believed to have reported the incident to police after a 'nasty' glittery note was also found inside the package. A source told The Sun: 'The package was really scary and she was terrified to receive it. 'It was delivered by the postman, but had no postage stamp on it. 'Gemma was worried as it contained rat poison, especially as she has animals at her home.' The reality star, 44, is said to be 'reeling' after a package containing the toxicant was delivered to her Essex home MailOnline has contacted a rep for Gemma for comment. It comes after it was revealed how Gemma was forced to call in police after previously being left 'terrified' by a nasty letter delivered to her home. A source close to the reality star told The Sun how the note detailed the twisted sender's strong dislike for Gemma. After the menacing letter, Gemma was said to have beefed up security at her mansion and police were investigating. Gemma, who was a car dealer before shooting to fame when she landed a role on ITV's The Only Way Is Essex, previously spoke about her experience with stalking. She told how she's had 'scary' people turn up at her shop in Essex and send her terrifying letters. She told how it 'played havoc on her mind' and was the reason she stepped away from her front of house work at her boutique in Brentwood. Appearing on the Daily Mail's Everything I Know About Me Podcast, Gemma said: 'No one would believe the bl**dy crap I've had to deal with. 'I've had a woman stalker that wrote me a letter in white gloves and wanted to kill me. 'You know, people would wish me dead. I'd get all sorts turn up at the shop. Weird. People are weird. And that's why in a way I came away from my shop in the end.' In 2019, Gemma was forced to move out of her home in Essex over stalking fears, with removal vans being pictured at the property at the time. She had been stalked by a man that previously fat-shamed her. It comes after Gemma recently told fans how she had been struck down with pneumonia as she explained her absence from social media. Gemma explained that her condition had been leaving her breathless 'really quickly' but due to medics diagnosing it as viral, antibiotics would be ineffective. She told The Mirror: 'It's shocking, I've had it now for over three weeks and I had steroids given to me by my doctor. It was DJ Fat Tony's wedding and I had to take them to get through that,' 'But I'm off them now and the sickness is really kicking back in. It's so frustrating because I normally have so much energy and I'm always loving life, but now I get really breathless really quickly and I feel like I'm dying.' Pneumonia is inflammation of the lungs, usually caused by an infection. Most people get better in two to four weeks, but babies, older people, and people with heart or lung conditions are at risk of getting seriously ill and may need treatment in hospital. Taking to her Stories Gemma shared snaps as she underwent X-rays while praising medical staff for their care. She wrote: 'Thank you to all the amazing doctors helping me your real life angels'. Announcing the news of her condition on Wednesday, Gemma shared a photo of herself in bed looking poorly in bed. She wrote: 'Hey guys sorry been quiet i have Pneumonia. I'm not as fast or on it as I usually am on the daily. 'I am still honouring my work commitments which is taking every bit of energy I have but will be back entertaining you all soon.' On her Story she added an update as she showed she was on a drip and had been visited by a doctor. One post that showed a drip in her arm read: 'I'm having to take it easy which is not like me very slow and get so out of breath and tired so quick.' WHAT IS PNEUMONIA? Pneumonia is a type of chest infection that affects the tiny air sacs in the lungs. The condition causes these sacs to be become inflammed and fill with fluid, making it harder to breathe. Pneumonia is caused by bacteria or viruses, with the most common being Streptococcus pneumoniae. It affects between five and 11 out of every 1,000 adults every year in the UK. Anyone can suffer from pneumonia, however, at-risk groups include: Babies and young children People over 65 Those with long-term heart, lung or kidney disease People with cancer, particularly those having chemotherapy Smokers Those on drugs that suppress their immune systems Antibiotics or mechanical ventilator use in hospitals also raise the risk. Symptoms include Coughing up mucus Fever Chest pain Loss of appetite Fatigue In severe cases, sufferers may cough up blood, vomit or have a rapid heart rate. Treatment is usually antibiotics, which may need to be given intravenously in hospital in severe cases.
