ROMEO BECKHAM is living up to his first name – by wining and dining a stunning US model.
I can reveal the young lothario took talent manager and influencer Sophie Julia on a date to London’s Chiltern Firehouse on Friday.
My exclusive pics show David and Victoria’s middle son hopping into a car with his potential love interest at 1am on Saturday after an evening inside the trendy nightspot.
She is the first woman Romeo has been linked with since he split from long-term model girlfriend Mia Regan in February after five years.
‘Deep in conversation’
Romeo is believed to have met Sophie Julia through celebrity dating app Raya, after I revealed he had reactivated his profile to search for a special someone.
My source said: “Romeo looked like he was really enjoying himself on Saturday evening.

“He met up with Sophie Julia at Chiltern Firehouse and they were deep in conversation for ages.
“Clearly it went well because they jumped in a cab together at the end of the evening. Whether they have a future together, who knows, as she is just visiting London for work from Los Angeles.
“But he is having fun and eager to get back into the dating game.”
Sophie Julia isn’t a celeb, but she has made a name for herself as an influencer, with 78,000 Instagram followers including model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.
She is a manager at wellness clothing company Alo and flew over to the UK for London Fashion Week.
Meanwhile, Romeo’s ex Mia was also out at the weekend for fashion week events, but they did well not to run into each other.
‘Friend-zoned’
Announcing their split in February, Mia wrote on Instagram: “Love takes different forms & paths as you mature.
“We aren’t together romantically but we do share lots & lots of love for one another . . . after five years we friend-zoned each other — heheh.”
I imagine Romeo will be doing everything he can to stop himself being “friend-zoned” once again.
