Romeo Beckham's ex Kim Turnbull delivers savage dig after split and family rift
Romeo Beckham's ex Kim Turnbull, who he split from earlier this year amid rumours of a rift in his family, has opened up about dealing with being in the spotlight
Kim Turnbull has opened up about being in the spotlight after making headlines over her relationship with Romeo Beckham. Her latest comments come after it was revealed that the former couple had split up just weeks ago.
It was announced earlier this month that Kim, 25, had separated from Romeo, 22, after seven months together. It was suggested that they were on good terms though, with a source telling the Mirror at the time: "They split a few weeks ago and it's all amicable and they are still friends."
The news of their break-up came amid ongoing rumours of tension in his family. Kim's relationship with Romeo - who is the son of Victoria Beckham and David Beckham - was previously blamed for the alleged rift in recent months.
Amid the rumours earlier this year, it was suggested that Kim had once been romantically linked to Romeo's brother Brooklyn Beckham, 26. It's previously been reported that in a now-deleted post, youngest brother Cruz Beckham, 20, said the pair "never dated" and Kim is since understood to have herself dismissed the suggestion in a statement.
Kim has addressed dealing with the attention in an interview with the Sunday Times, published this week. The interview is said to have taken place just hours after the news of the DJ's split from model Romeo broke just a few weeks ago.
Speaking about dealing with being in the spotlight, Kim suggested that it is expected. She continued: "There are situations that you find yourself in that present you with new aspects, but at the same time I think it has always been something that I've been around and seen, so I just take it day by day and try to focus on the positives."
She added: "Sometimes it's difficult to block things out because a lot of the time there are things said that are not necessarily true or necessarily positive, and your instinctive reaction is to want to be like, no, that's not true!" Kim said she's however learned to try to "take it with a pinch of salt".
Kim said: "It's definitely tough, whatever it is, when people are saying things about you that aren't necessarily true and, most importantly in my opinion, don't align with your character and your values." She said that despite sometimes wanting to, "you just can't" reply to every comment.
The new article comes after Kim appeared to dismiss the suggestion that she had ever dated Brooklyn following the rumours. As reported at the time, she addressed speculation in a post on Instagram earlier this month.
In the post, she wrote: "I've avoided speaking on this topic to prevent adding fuel to the fire, however it's come to a point where I feel the need to address it so I can move on. I will not continue to receive harassment or be embarrassed on the basis of lies, to fit a certain narrative."
She then seemingly addressed the speculation that she once dated Brooklyn, who is Romeo's older brother. She said: "I have never been romantically involved in ANY capacity at ANY point with the person in question."
Kim went on to tell fans: "Nothing between us has occurred further than a school friendship at age 16. I would like to remove myself from the ongoing conversation and set the record straight for the sake of everyone involved."
TMZ had previously suggested that she once had a romantic connection to Brooklyn, but said it was "all water under the bridge". Amid rumours of a family rift, the outlet reported that sources said the issue was over Brooklyn and his wife Nicola Peltz, 30, questioning whether Kim had "the right intentions" for dating his younger brother Romeo.
When it was announced that Kim had split from Romeo, the Daily Mail reported that their relationship had "fizzled out". The outlet suggested that the break-up was "nothing to do" with her being blamed for the alleged family rift, with a source instead saying that Kim and Romeo were simply both "busy" with work and each did "lots of travelling".

Millie Mackintosh reveals close encounter with SHARKS after 'embarrassing' late night skinny-dipping on holiday
Millie Mackintosh has recalled an embarrassing moment she decided to go skinny dipping, unaware she was swimming amongst sharks. The former Made In Chelsea star, 35, was on holiday in Australia with pals, staying on Fraser Island [K'gari]. Millie, who was 18 at the time, and her friends had been warned not to swim in the sea because of neighbouring sharks, though decided to break the rules and try skinny dipping one night. Speaking to The Times, she explained: 'I thought that as long as I stayed close to the shore it would be fine. 'Suddenly these two lifeguards came running across the beach, waving at me. I could just hear them shouting, 'Get out of the water — it's shark mating season!' 'I had no clothes on, but in the end I decided that being embarrassed in front of the lifeguards was better than being eaten. 'When you're young you don't always do the most sensible things.' Meanwhile, Millie recently showed off her toned physique while on a family holiday to Turkey last month. She had been keeping fans updated during her relaxing break while topping up her bronzed complexion. Millie shared a collection of her gorgeous summery looks from the trip to her 1.4million followers on Instagram. In one picture, the busy mother wore a tiny blue and white bikini while showing off her collection of looks from her getaway. The star also recently opened up on her sexuality as she revealed she struggled during her younger years. She told how she would only find the coverage to 'kiss' women when she was drunk. Speaking to Caggie Dunlop's Saturn Returns Podcast, Millie said: 'As a teen when I would drink, I would make out with women, but that's not something I felt confident to do when I was sober... 'I had crushes on girls at school and I just didn't have the awareness to go ''I like girls as well.'' I'd just have crushes and get all weird about them. I remember having sleepovets and going ''I wonder if they're going to kiss me.''' Millie added that a lot of her struggles have been unpacked in therapy, telling Caggie: 'I've explored a lot of my relationship to women, I was bullied so I definitely have intimacy issues with women, but there's this attraction as well. 'Obviously I'm married to a man, it's not something that affects our relationship at all now, but looking back and realising that was one of the reasons I drank in a destructive way, because there was a part of myself I didn't understand and I didn't know how to express it and I felt scared to express it. 'Everytime I would drink I would just keep doing it, even if I was in a relationship.' Millie went sober in 2022 and has spoken honestly about her battle with drink, releasing her very own book titled 'Bad Drunk'. Sharing the moment she opened up to husband Hugo Taylor about her sexuality, she revealed that he was incredibly supportive.
