Aww, to be young and in love…or not! When young celebs Brooklyn Beckham and Madison Beer stepped out together, the internet (of course) started buzzing with dating rumors. But in a recent interview, Madison addressed the rumors and now we know! The 18-year-old singer stopped by AOL’s Build Series on Thursday and said the two aren’t actually a couple…right now.
Despite the fact that the beautiful pair were spotted kissing during a dinner and movie date in LA just a few days ago and have even spent time with Brooklyn’s famous mom, Victoria Beckham, the singer was very clear about her current status. Beer said when it comes to the oldest Beckham son, they’re just “crushing on each other” because it isn’t feasible for them to date.
Madison has always been open with her fans, so when she says Brooklyn Beckham is just a friend, we believe her.
“I’m very much single and not ready to mingle,” the former YouTube star said. “I’m very much focused on my career. I’m just 18 — just trying to navigate my life. And I’m having fun. There are obviously boys that I can crush on and stuff. But I’m very much single.”
“I’ve known Brooklyn for years, we’ve been really close and as we’ve gotten older, and I’m newly out of a relationship, we’re definitely like crushing on each other, but we’re both very busy,” she continued.
So, they’re definitely into each other but current circumstances don’t allow for a relationship. It’s almost like a Romeo and Juliet for the millennials — without the tragic ending.
While the two are best friends, they both have a lot going on separately. Beckham is launching his photography book, What I See, next week. And Beer’s star power is quickly rising. She recently walked in a show for Dolce & Gabbana and has a new BFF in supermodel Winnie Harlow.
Madison also addressed the double standards faced by women and girls when they’re seen with multiple members of the opposite sex.
“Don’t attack a girl because you see one photo of her and a guy in public. You have no idea what this person’s doing behind closed doors,” she argued. “I’m also very open with my fan base and we’re all very close and I don’t feel like I have to hide anything from them.”
We absolutely love the fact that these two talented young stars are doing what works best for them in a world where there can be so much pressure to do otherwise. Keep doing your thing, Madison. We’re rooting for you!
