Romeo Beckham has confirmed that he's separated from his partner Mia Regan in a statement on social media.
There had been speculation that the footballer, 21, and model Mia, 21, had ended their relationship. Romeo - who's the son of David Beckham, 48, and Victoria Beckham, 49 - has now confirmed to fans that he has split up from Mia.
Alongside a photo of them together, he wrote in a post on Instagram this weekend: "Mooch and I have parted ways after 5 years of love, we still have a lot of love for each other, and still hold a strong friendship and always will."
Mia has also issued a statement, writing in a post on the platform that the pair had "friendzoned each other". She however said that her and Romeo have "lots of love" for each other, with her adding that "love takes different forms".
She wrote alongside a photo of them: "This is Ro, we have grown up with each other since we were 16. Love takes different forms & paths as you mature. We aren't tougher [sic] romantically but we do share lots & lots of love for one another ... after 5 years we friendzoned each other hehe."

The footballer confirmed their separation in a post shared on Instagram this weekend (@romeobeckham/instagram)The former couple, who began their relationship in 2019, are said to have been last seen together at the British Fashion Awards in London in December. A source teased their breakup to the Mirror recently ahead of the confirmation.
A source told us: "Romeo and Mia had a fallout… they aren’t together at the moment. They were living together, but Mia has apparently moved out of the place they shared and is staying with her parents. They've split up in the past and got back together again, but this time it feels more serious – Mia moving out obviously points to it being more than just a tiff."
The source continued about the former couple: "While Romeo was playing for Inter Miami, he and Mia both found the long-distance relationship difficult. But Romeo really felt that Mia was the one for him so after he returned to Brentford, he was keen to give things another go."
The source however added at the time: "Unfortunately, they seem to have hit yet another bump in the road and only time will tell if they patch things up. It will be a shame if they can’t, as Mia is a big favourite with Romeo's family. But ultimately, everyone just wants them both to be happy."
Romeo is the second eldest of former footballer David and former Spice Girls member Victoria's four children. The couple - who have been married since 1999 - are also parents to eldest child Brooklyn Beckham, 24, as well as Romeo's younger siblings Cruz Beckham, 19, and Harper Beckham, 12.
