In 2016, at age 16, Brooklyn Beckham photographed a campaign for Burberry BRIT, starring models Ben Rees, Carvell Conduah, Eliza Thomas, Liv Mason Pearson and Maddie Demaine.

However, Brooklyn Beckham’s hiring for the campaign was met with criticism by several prominent photographers.

However, Random House, Brooklyn Beckham’s publisher, defended the book as reflecting the interests of his teenage fan base.

In 2021, it was revealed that Brooklyn Beckham was to try his hand at becoming a professional chef and his online video series Cookin’ With Brooklyn attracted criticism when it was revealed that it took 62 professionals to create each episode, at a reported cost of $100,000 each.
