Brooklyn Beckham is making a success of his cooking career
As the son of David and Victoria Beckham, Brooklyn Beckham has faced a lot of criticism as he has tried to make a name for himself in his own right in the showbiz world. But now, UberEats have named him “one of the world’s most talked about foodies” as they announced a new cooking partnership with the star.
In the normal world, people do try out different jobs until they find their feet but the famous offspring has faced a lot of backlash for his career attempts. Beckham has tried out a number of different jobs – from his first position as a teenage barista to going to photography school and being a professional photographer to also becoming a footballer and a model.
In more recent years, the 24-year-old has set his sights on being a chef. Beckham was mocked for cooking a breakfast sandwich on TV, however he has continued to pursue this dream. Not losing heart, the rising star has launched a pop up restaurant where people can order his sandwiches.
Of his changing careers, Beckham previously told The Evening Standard: “I started doing football and I love that, then went into photography, which I am still in love with and now I do cooking. I’ve always been into trying new food, even if it is sometimes a bit not that great. I remember trying jellied eels because I’ve always liked pie and mash — and I did not like them at all.”
In June 2022, his now wife Nicola Peltz told Tatler that her husband felt “a lot of pressure to please people with his career and he didn’t love it”. Beckham really rediscovered his love of cooking in lockdown and with the encouragement of his wife, he set his sights on the food world.
What is Brooklyn Beckham doing now?
A few years on, Beckham is still carving his place in the food world. As a passionate foodie, the former footballer’s son loves to share his cooking on his Instagram. Now Beckham has partnered with UberEats for a two-night delivery on 25 and 26 January between 5-10pm. There are five dishes on offer with a starting price of £10, including: English Breakfast Sandwich, Chicken Tikka Masala and Wagyu Bolognese.
He said in a statement: “My Nanny Peggy taught me how to make her English Breakfast sandwich when I was 5, and it’s been my favorite ever since. I’ve always been into trying different foods, cuisines, and cultures, but that was one of my earliest memories of loving cooking.
“Spending time in the kitchen is definitely something me and my dad bond over… Even though I think I make my English Breakfast sandwich better, he does make a pretty good one!”
Matthew Price, General Manager UK, Ireland and Northern Europe at Uber Eats hailed Beckham as “one of the world’s most talked about foodies”. They added: “Uber Eats hosts is all about creating unique food experiences on the Uber Eats app. We’re excited to be working with one of the world’s most talked about foodies adding to the wide breadth of culinary talent already available on Uber Eats.”
Previously, Beckham had teamed up with Facebook for an eight-part series Cookin’ With Brooklyn.
