Romeo Beckham Tries Sumo in Tokyo Amid Family Drama
2 Feb
Summary
- Romeo Beckham visited a renowned sumo stable in Tokyo, Japan.
- He attempted sumo wrestling with Japan's 74th yokozuna, Hōshōryū Tomokatsu.
- This trip occurred as the family navigates Brooklyn Beckham's public estrangement.
Romeo Beckham recently visited Tokyo's prestigious Tatsunami sumo wrestling stable, an institution founded in 1876. During his visit, the 23-year-old aspiring wrestler was given a challenging lesson by Hōshōryū Tomokatsu, the 74th yokozuna and highest-ranked sumo wrestler in Japan.
Beckham shared his humbling experience on Instagram, admitting defeat after being lifted by the formidable athlete. The sumo stable also posted footage, mistakenly identifying his girlfriend, Kim Turnbull, as his wife. This excursion to Japan follows Romeo and Kim's support for his mother, Victoria Beckham, at Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week, where she received the Order of Arts and Letters.
The family's trip to Japan occurs while Brooklyn Beckham continues his public estrangement from the family, having recently issued a lengthy statement detailing alleged family control and past grievances, including issues surrounding his wedding to Nicola Peltz. Brooklyn has notably missed several significant family events, including his father's 50th birthday and his mother's recent accolade ceremony.
