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、去未成年人不得入内的酒吧、周六打份无聊的工以及为了让父母给买一辆旧老爷车而去学驾照。
For the average 17-year-old, there are some well-established rites of passage: slaving away for A-levels,illicit visits to the pub, a mundane Saturday job and driving lessons in the hope your parents might buy you an old banger.
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。
And, in theory, Brooklyn Beckham - eldest child of footballing legend David and former Spice Girl Victoria - is just another London sixth-former.
而现实是，他的生活和一名普通的青少年有极少的相似之处。布鲁克林有自己的经纪人，一辆梅德赛斯跑车，还有非常知名的女友。
But in reality, his life bears scant resemblance to that of a normal teenager. He has his own agent, a Mercedes sports car and a famous girlfriend.

SOCIAL MEDIA KING
在众多青少年们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。
While most teenagers 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.
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。
He joined photo-sharing website Instagram in December 2014 and by April 2015 was telling Desperate Housewives actress Eva Longoria — his mum’s best friend — ‘race you to a million!’ He won the race comfortably and now has 7.6 million followers.
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。
Father David says he and Victoria vet all the pictures their son posts. They include many of his girlfriend Chloe, complete with soppy captions such as ‘love this one’.

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。
Brooklyn has a long way to go before he matches his parents, who are worth around ￡600 million. However, he is being managed by Simon Olivera, who is dad David’s agent, so who knows where it will all end.
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。
In total, to date, he is estimated to have earned around ￡250,000 and counting.
