Which Celebrity Spawns Are Dating Before Their 10th Birthday?
Posted by Molly Friedman at 9:00 AM on June 6, 2008
We've been wondering for a while now when all these obsessed-over spawns of celebrities would finally grow up and start canoodling already. With all the "wombwatching" and "bump" updates screaming at us from the newsstands, all we really want to know is when Lourdes is going to start dating James Wilkie Parker Broderick (oy), or when Suri will link eyes with the matching-haircut, age-equivalent Maddox. But thank the pervy Hollywood heavens above, the wait is now over. As the NY Daily News reports today, two youngsters with very famous A-list parents are currently "dating," and "poised to take Hollywood by storm...and they have a combined age of 18!" Well! That's slightly disgusting but also beyond intriguing! The new hot couple on the schoolyard revealed, after the jump.
The tiny couple in question? None other than Lily Beckinsale and Brooklyn Beckham. Apparently (and we quote), "Kate Beckinsale has reportedly given her 9-year-old daughter Lily permission to 'date' Brooklyn Beckham." But before Kate begins setting up a registry at Harrod's, she may want to consider the wrath of Tom Cruise's SWAT team of Hubbard-humping disco stars — a month back, we noted Suri's obvious crush on the very same hot boy on campus, and Beckinsale's new friendship with Victoria Beckham isn't going to protect her from the wrath of Xenuphobes either. But before we prepare for the impending battle of the broods, it sounds as though Kate is simply dreaming of a romance still in its very early stages: "I am dreading the day Lily brings home a boy. But she and the Beckham boys get on really well...If she did have to have a boyfriend, then I suppose Brooklyn would get my seal of approval!" And considering Lily's apparent fondness for wearing as much makeup as possible before reaching double digits, as evident in the above photo, we have a feeling Posh would gladly approve as well.

Weird. I read this yesterday and there was definitely more to the article. Something like she can date him when she id older, not now!
Poor journalism (NYDN, not Defamer!)
And yes, I pray her photo was from Halloween. Ew!

@metroville: It is disturbingly Jon Benet. Perhaps Brooklyn thinks Jon Benet was hot? Perhaps Jon Benet is the Marilyn Monroe figure to this set?

@metroville: @Trixie from Toronto: I hate that I know this, but I've seen pictures of her with ice skating gear, and she looks exactly like I did as a kid for our year-end ice shows when I took skating lessons. Same blue eye shadow and red lipstick. It was pretty hideous, but not really on the same level of bad as those kiddie pageants.

Brooklyn is going to be devastated when Lily reveals she actually prefers Staten Island.

I was going to snark on the kiddie makeup, but I have a friend whose 5 year old daughter goes out in public in fairy wings, disney princess dresses, flowered head garlands, and ummm, no underpants. So, I decided to not get all judgemental on the little beckinsale girl. Plus, I secretly love all that is Posh and Becks, including their adorable spawn.

I'm no expert, but if I was a little girl and my mom looked like Kate Beckinsale, I'm pretty sure I'd be raiding the makeup bin when I was nine!

@Huge Tracts of Land: Then you're obviously not familiar with the work of Annie Liebovitz.
